Checking the Checking Value in the Teapot Dome Scandal
Communication Law Review Volume 15, Issue 2 (2015) Checking the Checking Value in the Teapot Dome Scandal David R. Dewberry, Ph.D. Rider University This article examines the history of journalism in the initial reporting of the Teapot Dome scandal to argue that the press falls short in fulfilling the checking value of the First Amendment. Similar arguments have been made about the press in other major scandals (e.g., Watergate, Iran-Contra, etc.). But this article exclusively focuses on the key journalistic agents in Teapot Dome including Frederick G. Bonfils and H. H. Tammen of the Denver Post, John C. Schaffer of the Rocky Mountain News, Carl Magee of New Mexico, and Paul Y. Anderson of the St. Louis Post- Dispatch, to demonstrate how they were more protagonists in the scandal, rather than members of the fourth estate. INTRODUCTION Political scandals reveal the worst and also the best of our democracy. The worst is that our public leaders have transgressed some norm or rule. The best is that the presence of scandals also suggests that a free press was able to enact what noted First Amendment scholar Vincent Blasi called “the checking value.” The checking value is “that free speech, a free press, and free assembly can serve in checking the abuse of power by public officials.”1 Furthermore, Blasi believes that free speech was a central and critical principle for the drafters of the First Amendment to “guard against breaches of trust by public officials.”2 As such, the American press is often dubbed the “watchdogs of democracy.”3 Given the press’s status in our democracy, its reputation sometimes reaches an undeserved mythic status. -

Day 127 - Monday 27Th July @ 11.04Pm I Feel Like I’Ve Been Punched in the Stomach
Day 127 - Monday 27th July @ 11.04pm I feel like I’ve been punched in the stomach. This may be not only the worst day of lockdown, but one of the worst days of my entire life. So, my friends are all seeing each other tomorrow whilst I’m being left out. I... feel so many emotions I’ve not felt in months. I thought they were my friends, apparently not. So, it’s short tonight, but for good reason. My friends are leaving me out and I’ve probably annoyed my best friend. Please fix this. Until tomorrow. Day 126 - Sunday 26th July @ 11.24pm Today wasn’t the greatest. We visited grandparents for a while which was nice to see them again. It’s strange seeing family more often since the change in lockdown. I played for a wee while this afternoon with friends but they all eventually moved on to competitive which made me feel not the best. I brought it up with a friend who seemed supportive but I really don’t know anymore. Please bring back the past couple of weeks. Until tomorrow. Day 125 - Saturday 25th July @ 11.50pm See yesterday’s entry: nothing has really changed today. I played with friends today which was awesome to be able to but I still can’t do competitive so... I feel slightly left out (of course unintentionally and it’s all on me). I just feel worried about playing it and messing up in front of friends. Thanks anyway for the great past couple of weeks so far! Until tomorrow. -

Media Presentation of Women Power Strategy in Scandal Tv Series Season 7
MEDIA PRESENTATION OF WOMEN POWER STRATEGY IN SCANDAL TV SERIES SEASON 7 THESIS BY: KARUNIA MAULIDIA PERMATA SUGIARTO REG. NUMBER: A73216114 ENGLISH DEPARTMENT FACULTY OF ARTS AND HUMANITIES UIN SUNAN AMPEL SURABAYA 2020 ii iii iv v ABSTRACT Sugiarto, K.M.P., 2020. Media Presentation of Women Power Strategy in Scandal TV Series Season 7. English Department, UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Advisor: Prof. Dr. Zuliati Rohmah, M.Pd. Keywords: gender equality, power strategy, women in leadership, women power, media presentation. This study aims to analyze the power strategy of women characters in Scandal TV Series Season 7. This television series mostly tells about the powerful women politicians who work and handle the scandalous cases. At season 7, there will be the four strong female characters that took the main role in this Scandal serial which are Olivia Pope, Mellie Grant, Quinn Perkins, and Abby Wheelan. The place setting mostly was taken on White House and the law firm called OPA (Olivia Pope & Asosiaciation), which is renamed to QPA (Quinn Perkins & Association). The author aims to analyze the power strategies of those four female characters in the Scandal TV Series Season 7. There are five types of power strategies of Thimm, C., Koch, SC, and Schey, S. (2003), which are order, direct request, threat, hierarchy, and demonstrating competence. This study uses a qualitative approach concerning the use of clear and systematic descriptions of the research being studied. Descriptive studies in the textual analysis were applied in this study to analyze conversations of female characters through the results of the transcript from the manuscript. -

Z:\Moriarty Tribunal\Transcripts\Processed\MT Day 101 21-12-00.Txt
THE TRIBUNAL RESUMED AS FOLLOWS ON THURSDAY, 21ST DECEMBER 2000, AT 11AM: MR. HEALY: Sir, I am sorry, there has been a delay for two reasons. Firstly, because of a problem with monitors here in this room; and secondly, because of a computer glitch in the Tribunal's processing room downstairs. Now, you will recall, Sir, that in the opening statement I made at the commencement of this session, I mentioned that it would become necessary, as has indeed become evident to date, to recall Revenue witnesses from time to time, so as to ensure that a comprehensive picture was obtained of the handling of Mr. Haughey's tax affairs and Mr. Clayton has already been recalled in relation to one or two matters which arose from the evidence of Mr. Pairceir. It has now become necessary at this juncture to recall Mr. Clayton once again to deal with two further matters, one of which arose in the course of the evidence of Mr. Harrington yesterday. After that, I would propose to make a short opening statement dealing with two other headings of tax to which the Tribunal will then be devoting sometime today and possibly sometime tomorrow. CHAIRMAN: Very good, Mr. Healy. Mr. Clayton please. CHRISTOPHER CLAYTON, PREVIOUSLY SWORN, WAS EXAMINED AS FOLLOWS BY MR. HEALY: Q. MR. HEALY: Mr. Clayton, you were here yesterday afternoon, were you, apart from the time you were in the witness-box? A. For part of the afternoon as I recall it. I was coming and going from Dublin Castle several times yesterday.
