  • Evidence from Movie Reviews
    Does Media Concentration Lead to Biased Coverage? Evidence from Movie Reviews∗ Stefano DellaVigna Alec Kennedy UC Berkeley and NBER San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank [email protected] [email protected] September 14, 2011 Abstract Fueled by the need to cut costs in a competitive industry, media companies have be- come increasingly concentrated. But is this consolidation without costs for the quality of information? Concentrated media companies generate a conflict of interest: a media outlet can bias its coverage to benefit companies in the same group. We test empirically for bias by examining movie reviews by media outlets owned by News Corp.–such as the Wall Street Journal–and by Time Warner–such as Time.Wefind a statistically significant, if small, bias in the review score for 20th Century Fox movies in the News Corp. outlets. We detect no bias for Warner Bros. movies in the reviews of the Time Warner outlets, but find instead some evidence of bias by omission: the media in this group are more likely to review highly-rated movies by affiliated studios. Using the wealth of detail in the data, we present evidence regarding bias by individual reviewer, and also biases in the editorial assignment of review tasks. We conclude that reputation limits the extent of bias due to conflict of interest, but that nonetheless powerful biasing forces are at work due to consolidation in the media industry. ∗PRELIMINARY AND INCOMPLETE, DO NOT CITE WITHOUT PERMISSION. Ivan Balbuzanov and Xiaoyu Xia provided excellent research assistance. We thank audiences at UC Berkeley for very helpful com- ments.

  • New Hollywood As Political Discourse
    CAPTURING TURMOIL: NEW HOLLYWOOD AS POLITICAL DISCOURSE by DANA ALSTON A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2018 An Abstract of the Thesis of Dana Alston for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2018 Title: Capturing Turmoil: New Hollywood as Political Discourse Approved: _______________________________________ Dr. Erin Hanna This thesis is an argumentative close analysis of themes, aesthetics, and political meanings within three New Hollywood films. It emerged out of an interest in the films of the 1960s and 70s and the changes within that era’s film industry. Those changes granted young, educated filmmaker opportunities to helm studio-driven projects, weaving material into their narratives that would have been impossible in a system ruled by the Hollywood Production Code. The era also included significant social and political unrest, and the films therein reflect that reality. In this project, I perform content analyses for three films within the New Hollywood movement — Bonnie and Clyde (1967), Dog Day Afternoon (1975), and Nashville (1975) — in order to understand how films in the movement used themes of celebrity, violence, and oppression to act as a form of discourse. All three films employ on-screen violence to complicate the audience’s initial assumptions of characters, and each film critiques the social and political issues of its time through this violence. For each analysis, I discuss several sequences’ mise-en-scène — the arrangement of elements within the entire frame — and connect them to broad socio-political ideas.

  • Proposal to Create a Graduate Minor in Bioethics
    Center for Bioethics and Medical Humanities Proposal for a Graduate Minor in Bioethics June, 2015 [Revised September, 2015] [Revised October, 2015] Graduate Studies Committee Proposing the Graduate Program MA in Bioethics: Ryan Nash, MD, MA (Chair) Alan Litsky, MD, ScD Karla Zadnik, OD, PhD 1. Title of the proposed graduate minor: Graduate Minor in Bioethics 2. Rational for its development Currently, the University does not offer any programs on the graduate level in bioethics. In light of the established presence of bioethics as a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary field, the Center for Bioethics was launched in 2013 with the task of addressing this need. An MA in Bioethics has been proposed, and a Graduate Minor in Bioethics is a natural programmatic extension of the proposed MA in Bioethics. In short, the primary rational for developing the Graduate Minor is to offer scholarship and training in ethics for graduate students in a field that warrants the University’s attention. As part of the planning process for the MA program, Ryan Nash (Director, Center for Bioethics) met with deans and directors from the OSU health campus colleges and schools—including College of Medicine, Biomedical Science, Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, College of Nursing, College of Optometry, College of Pharmacy, and College of Veterinary Medicine—to discuss the MA and Graduate Minor. The leaders from the health campus colleges and schools have all expressed agreement that a Graduate Minor in Bioethics would serve their graduate students well. Further conversations with leadership in the Colleges of Public Affairs, Law, Public Health, Social Work, the Department of Philosophy, and other “stakeholder” disciplines for bioethics have led to the same consensus that a Graduate Minor is a welcome addition for the University.

Violence as Indecency: Pacifica’s Open Door Policy Craig R. Smith1 After a somewhat tumultuous time at the hands of reviewers, the film “Bonnie and Clyde” was nominated for ten academy awards including Best Picture. Burnett Guffey won the Oscar for his cinematography, which cap- tured the look of the lower Midwest during the depression. Estelle Parsons, in a breakthrough role, won Best Supporting Actress as the daughter of a preacher who arcs into a gang member. Gene Hackman, as Clyde’s older brother Buck, was nominated for his portrayal and soon was seen as a major star. Warren Beatty, as Clyde, and Faye Dunaway, as Bonnie, became mega-stars after their nominations for the Oscar. However, “Bonnie and Clyde” had no easy road to fame and fortune. By the time the film opened in the troubled summer of 1967 to compete with such stellar movies as “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf,” “Cool Hand Luke,” “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner,” “The Graduate,” and “In the Heat of the Night,” Françcois Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard had passed on it.
