TECHNOLOGY, NEWS, AND NATIONAL SECURITY: THE MEDIA'S INCREASING CAPABILITY TO COVER WAR Richard Davis Brigham Young University The victorious conclusion of the Persian Gulf War demonstrated not only US military prowess, but also the ability of the US government to handle coverage of the conflict by American news media. However, the Persian Gulf War also demonstrated the extent to which the press, through technological innovation, has become a major communications link in wartime and a major threat to governmental control of information flow. Moreover, this con­ flict presaged the press' future capability to affect the conduct of war through competition with government over the flow of military-related information. Essentially, the news media today, due to increased techno­ logical capability, have created a dilemma for policymakers by pitting the rights of free press and public knowledge of govern­ mental activity against the imperatives of national security.

INTRODUCTION "Wait 'til you see how that law is being outrageously abused." "We're going to take a closer look at whether the definition of disabled has been "2 stretched too far. amok?"3 "A victory for the disabled, or compassionate law run S 4 extortion ?" "Is the disabilitiesact being applied as intended? Is it protection or Unfortunately, statements of this kind are not uncommon in television and radio coverage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). A few years after the ADA went into effect, one author suggested that the absence of an extended public debate before the ADA was passed has created problems for the disability rights movement, in part because there wasn't a sufficient opportunity for the disability rights community to educate the media.5 A review of TV and radio coverage of the ADA certainly supports the notion that the media doesn't "get" the ADA. Given the power of the media not just to reflect but to shape public opinion, this is a serious problem for the disability rights movement. In this article I attempt to identify some of the common themes in the t Cary LaCheen is an Instructor of Law at New York University School of Law.

  • Shooting the President
    SHOOTING THE PRESIDENT: THE DEPICTION OF THE AMERICAN PRESIDENCY ON FILM AND TELEVISION FROM JOHN F. KENNEDY TO JOSIAH BARTLET Submitted by Matthew David Barber, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for a degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, September 2009. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. .................................... Abstract This thesis – Shooting the President: Screen Depictions of the American Presidency from John F. Kennedy to Josiah Bartlet – examines the depiction of the presidency in American film and television from 1960 until the present day. In this study I explore the relationships between the presidency and Hollywood, particularly in the context of genre structures. I examine the constructions of specific presidential mythologies based on the real presidencies of Kennedy, Nixon and Clinton and the construction of fictional presidencies in the television series The West Wing. In four sets of case studies, I will chart the changing significance of each president through different genres, looking particularly at how each presidential mythology is affected by the anxieties and fashions of the contemporary political and social world. I also examine the ways in which the appearance of presidentiality is created within each text by various means including set design, the choice of actor, the use of dialogue and the framing of particular characters.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: TELEVISING the SPACE AGE: a DESCRIPTIVE CHRONOLOGY of CBS NEWS SPECIAL COVERAGE of SPACE EXPLORATION
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: TELEVISING THE SPACE AGE: A DESCRIPTIVE CHRONOLOGY OF CBS NEWS SPECIAL COVERAGE OF SPACE EXPLORATION FROM 1957 TO 2003 Alfred Robert Hogan, Master of Arts, 2005 Thesis directed by: Professor Douglas Gomery College of Journalism University of Maryland, College Park From the liftoff of the Space Age with the Earth-orbital beeps of Sputnik 1 on 4 October 1957, through the videotaped tragedy of space shuttle Columbia’s reentry disintegration on 1 February 2003 and its aftermath, critically acclaimed CBS News televised well more than 500 hours of special events, documentary, and public affairs broadcasts dealing with human and robotic space exploration. Much of that was memorably anchored by Walter Cronkite and produced by Robert J. Wussler. This research synthesizes widely scattered data, much of it internal and/or unpublished, to partially document the fluctuating patterns, quantities, participants, sponsors, and other key details of that historic, innovative, riveting coverage.

  • What's Happened to the News Media?
    KENNEDY LIBRARY FORUMS “WHAT’S HAPPENED TO THE NEWS MEDIA?” MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 2005 PAGE 1 JOHN SHATTUCK: Good evening. I’m John Shattuck, the CEO of the Kennedy Library Foundation, and on behalf of myself and Deborah Leff, the Director of the Library who’s here with us in the front row, I want to welcome you all to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum. I’m here to set the stage for this evening’s very fascinating forum, “What’s Happening to the News Media?” First, I’d like to offer our thanks to the institutions that make these forums possible. I want to especially acknowledge the Bank of America, the lead sponsor of the Kennedy Library Forums series. We’re also very grateful to our other forum sponsors: Boston Capital, the Lowell Institute, and the Corcoran Jennison Companies, as well as our media sponsors, the Boston Globe, Boston.com, and WBUR-FM, which broadcasts all of our forums, certainly including this one, on Sunday evenings. I think the best way to introduce this evening’s forum is to turn the clock back for a moment, and look at the news media 40 years ago through the eyes of a very special observer: not surprisingly, since you’re in his library, President Kennedy. In some ways, things haven’t changed much. But in other, perhaps fundamental, ways, what the President describes in a White House press conference on December 17, 1962, is hardly recognizable today. Let’s go right to the transcript: KENNEDY LIBRARY FORUMS “WHAT’S HAPPENED TO THE NEWS MEDIA?” MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 2005 PAGE 2 Question: “Mr.

    The Great WMD Hunt | FAIR 27.09.17 14:29 FAIRNESS & ACCURACY IN REPORTING Search Challenging media bias since 1986. WHAT’S FAIR? BROWSE EXTRA! COUNTERSPIN STORE DONATE JULY 1, 2003 The Great WMD Hunt The media knew they were there--but where are they? SETH ACKERMAN By the time the war against Iraq began, much of the media had been conditioned to believe, almost as an article of faith, that Saddam Hussein’s Iraq was bulging with chemical and biological weapons, despite years of United Nations inspections. Reporters dispensed with the formality of applying modifiers like “alleged” or “suspected” to Iraq’s supposed unconventional weapon stocks. Instead, they asked “what precise threat Iraq and its weapons of mass destruction pose to America” (NBC Nightly News, 1/27/03). They wrote matter-of-factly of Washington’s plans for a confrontation “over Iraq’s banned weapons programs” (Washington Post, 1/27/03). And they referred to debates over whether Saddam Hussein was “making a good-faith effort to disarm Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction” (Time, 2/3/03). All of this came despite repeated reminders from the chief U.N. weapons inspector that it was his job to determine if Iraq was hiding weapons, and that it should not simply be assumed that Iraq was doing so. So with much of southern Iraq in the hands of coalition forces by the weekend after the opening of hostilities, reporters naturally started asking where the weapons were: “Bush administration officials were peppered yesterday with questions about why allied forces in Iraq have not found any of the chemical or biological weapons that were President Bush’s central justification for forcibly disarming Iraqi President Saddam Hussein’s government,” the Washington Post reported (3/23/03).
