    © Copyright 2020 Yunkang Yang The Political Logic of the Radical Right Media Sphere in the United States Yunkang Yang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: W. Lance Bennett, Chair Matthew J. Powers Kirsten A. Foot Adrienne Russell Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Communication University of Washington Abstract The Political Logic of the Radical Right Media Sphere in the United States Yunkang Yang Chair of the Supervisory Committee: W. Lance Bennett Department of Communication Democracy in America is threatened by an increased level of false information circulating through online media networks. Previous research has found that radical right media such as Fox News and Breitbart are the principal incubators and distributors of online disinformation. In this dissertation, I draw attention to their political mobilizing logic and propose a new theoretical framework to analyze major radical right media in the U.S. Contrasted with the old partisan media literature that regarded radical right media as partisan news organizations, I argue that media outlets such as Fox News and Breitbart are better understood as hybrid network organizations. This means that many radical right media can function as partisan journalism producers, disinformation distributors, and in many cases political organizations at the same time. They not only provide partisan news reporting but also engage in a variety of political activities such as spreading disinformation, conducting opposition research, contacting voters, and campaigning and fundraising for politicians. In addition, many radical right media are also capable of forming emerging political organization networks that can mobilize resources, coordinate actions, and pursue tangible political goals at strategic moments in response to the changing political environment.

  • BBC Gets out of the Kitchen As Government Turns up the Heat
    Academic rigour, journalistic flair Subscribe Fourth estate follies Trawling through the dustbins of the UK media BBC gets out of the kitchen as government turns up the heat May 17, 2016 5.11pm BST Author John Jewell Director of Undergraduate Studies, School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, Cardiff University More than 11,000 recipes will go in the bin as the BBC drops it’s much-loved Food site. BBC I suppose it says a lot about our current national obsession with all matters gastronomic that the focal point of media attention concerning the BBC’s decision to “redefine” its online presence centres around the decision to take down its food website. But it also says a lot for the power of social media that, within hours of the announcement, BBC management went back on its plan to bin more than 11,000 recipes, announcing that the bulk of them would instead be moved to its commercial BBC Good Food website which will remain open for business. What really appears to have angered the 120,000 or so people who signed a change.org petition calling for the decision to be reversed is the unnecessary attack on such an altruistic, beneficial and tangible example of public service provision. According to Lloyd Shepherd, who was instrumental in conceptualising and creating the original food site, public service responsibilities were uppermost in the minds of those at the forefront of development. As he writes, the recipes posted had already been paid for by the licence fee payer and could be used for very little further cost.

  • Holding Pattern (Winter 2016)
    Holding Pattern Garrick Alder Doppelgangers Hillary Clinton’s apparent fainting spell during the 9/11 commemoration in September led to an explosion of theorising. The right-wing, who had been on her case over an alleged ‘secret illness’ for some time, went absolutely bananas.1 This cloud of conspiracy conjecture followed her into the car that rushed her away from the commemoration, across town, up the elevator to the apartment of her daughter Chelsea (where Mrs Clinton went to get herself recomposed) and back out into the street when she re-emerged an hour or two later. The big thing (for about five minutes) was the claim that Mrs Clinton had been replaced by a body-double during her brief reappearance on the sidewalk, as she appeared to be behaving in a totally normal way. The traditional arsenal of amateur photoanalysis was unleashed, with before-and-after comparisons of Mrs Clinton’s fingers, gait, hair, weight and ears all being relied upon to support this theory of a stand-in.2 The online hordes even thought they had identified the Clinton ‘clone’, in the form of professional lookalike Theresa Barnwell.3 Ms Barnwell formerly worked in banking before quitting to exploit her natural good fortune as a full-time job, which gives some idea of what a lucrative profession this can be. (Ms Barnwell is said to earn upward of $10,000 a month 1 I suspect this orignated with a National Enquirer story in January that claimed she only had six months to live. 2 There’s a decent round-up of this supernova of speculation at <http://heavy.com/news/2016/09/hillary-clinton-body-double- conspiracy-theory-health-death-teresa-barnwell-impersonator- twitter/>.
