This course is designed to help the requisites: student develop and use the strategies and skills needed to negotiate and understand readings, and to compose text. A grade of C or higher in this course completes the developmental sequences in both reading (ENGL 003) and writing (ENGL 051) required for enrollment into any other courses that require ENGL 003 and/or ENGL 051 as prerequisites. Prerequisite: ENGL 003 entry-level performance in the College Testing and Placement Program, or ENGL 002 with a grade of C or higher, and ENGL 051 placement, or completion of ENGL 050 with a grade of C or higher. Learning Outcomes: The integrated Reading and Writing curriculum as designed is rooted in the belief that there is significant interplay between reading and writing and the ways the two disciplines work together to develop students’ literacy. Therefore, the outcomes focus on the interplay between the two areas – reading and writing – while acknowledging that students require intentional practice in becoming active critical readers who possess the ability to respond critically to text and at the same time in learning how to develop the conventions and practices of academic writing. It is through the intentional application of active reading and writing processes that students independently learn to use the strategies and skills needed to negotiate and understand complex academic text.

  • 19 Mapping the Citizen News Landscape: Blurring Boundaries, Promises, Perils, and Beyond
    An Nguyen and Salvatore Scifo 19 Mapping the Citizen News Landscape: Blurring Boundaries, Promises, Perils, and Beyond Abstract: This chapter offers a necessary critical overview of citizen journalism in its many forms and shapes, with a focus on its promises and perils and what it means for the future of news. We will start with a review of the concept of “citizen journalism” and its many alternative terms, then move to briefly note the long history of citizen journalism, which dates back to the early days of the printing press. This will be followed by our typology of three major forms of citizen journal- ism (CJ) – citizen witnessing, oppositional CJ, and expertise-based CJ – along with an assessment of each form’s primary actions, motives, functions, and influences. The penultimate part of the chapter will focus on CJ’s flaws and pitfalls – especially the mis/disinformation environment it fosters and the “dialogue of the deaf” it engenders – and place them in the context of the post-truth era to highlight the still critical need for professional journalists. The chapter concludes with a brief review of the understandably but unnecessarily uneasy relationship between citi- zen and professional journalism and calls for the latter to adopt a new attitude to work well with the former. Keywords: citizen journalism, alternative journalism, citizen witnessing, social media, fake news, post-truth 1 One thing, many labels? Within a short time, citizen journalism (CJ) went from something of a novelty to a naturalized part of the news ecosystem and entered the daily language of journal- ists, journalism educators, and a large segment of the global public.

  • The Bibliography of the Publications by Classmates in the Yale Class Of
    The Bibliography of the Publications by Classmates in the Yale Class of 1956: Includes Work by Wives of Classmates, Work in the Book Exhibit of the 50th Reunion and Listings in the ABEbook Exchange as of 02-09-2018. Introduction Here is a list of 476 publications by 95 Classmates and 10 of their wives, which is probably the first of its kind of any Yale College Class, and, if not, should compare well with any other in scope. But then again, this compilation of so many by so few might symbolize the autumn of book-binding’s age that stretched from Gutenberg’s invention till today and might suggest that publications, free of paper words and numbers, be in bytes to digitally whisk the world-wide-web. Will this new era mark the waning of the printing press as it had once replaced bespoken Latin scripts? Will knowledge be transmitted more efficiently both to and from a heaping, horizontal cloud? NB: Publication data obtained directly from authors has been verified; the data from the Exchange has not been verified. Compiled by W. H. H.

  • The Anatomy of a Moral Panic: Western Mainstream Media's
    Changing Societies & Personalities, 2019 Vol. 3, No. 3, pp. 189–206 http://dx.doi.org/10.15826/csp.2019.3.3.071 ARTICLE The Anatomy of a Moral Panic: Western Mainstream Media’s Russia Scapegoat Greg Simons Uppsala University, Sweden Turiba University, Latvia Ural Federal University, Yekaterinburg, Russia ABSTRACT Since 2014, there has been a very concerted campaign launched by the neo-liberal Western mainstream mass media against Russia. The format and content suggest that this is an attempt to induce a moral panic among the Western publics. It seems to be intended to create a sense of fear and to switch the logic to a series of emotionally- based reactions to assertion propaganda. Russia has been variously blamed for many different events and trends around the world, such as the “destroying” of Western “democracy”, and democratic values. In many regards, Russia is projected as being an existential threat in both the physical and intangible realms. This paper traces the strategic messages and narratives of the “Russia threat” as it is presented in Western mainstream media. Russia is connoted as a scapegoat for the failings of the neo-liberal democratic political order to maintain its global hegemony; therefore, Russia is viewed as the “menacing” other and a desperate measure to halt this gradual decline and loss of power and influence. This ultimately means that this type of journalism fails in its supposed fourth estate role, by directly aiding the hegemonic political power. KEYWORDS moral panic, Western mainstream media, Russia, propaganda, scapegoating, fourth estate Received 28 July 2019 © 2019 Gregory Simons Accepted 13 September 2019 [email protected] Published online 5 October 2019 190 Greg Simons Introduction Moral panic has been developed as a concept within sociology and came to greater attention after Stanley Cohen’s 1972 book on Folk Devils and Moral Panic.

  • News Parody, Valuations of the News Media, and Their
    Perceived News Media Importance: News Parody, Valuations of the News Media, and Their Influence on Perceptions of Journalism Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jason T. Peifer, M.A. Graduate Program in Communication The Ohio State University 2015 Committee: R. Kelly Garrett, Advisor R. Lance Holbert Gerald Kosicki Erik Nisbet Copyright by Jason T. Peifer 2015 Abstract Against the backdrop of declining public confidence in news media, this project explores the question of what could be contributing to increased skepticism toward the press and how the public’s apparent reluctance to express trust in news media might be interpreted by scholars. In an effort to address this basic query, this research effort is designed to (a) advance an understanding of news media perceptions, and (b) consider news parody’s role in influencing these perceptions. More specifically, this study explores the influence of news parody— conceptualized as a form of media criticism—on varied forms of media trust. By its very nature, news parody (such as The Daily Show and Last Week Tonight) is understood to offer both explicit and implicit commentary about the news media industry and media personnel. In so doing, it is argued here that news parody serves to endorse the notion of the news media serving important functions in society, even as the press may fail to meet its obligations. Furthermore, it is hypothesized that perceptions of news media importance have a meaningful influence on aspects of media trust.

  • Radical Documentaries, Neoliberal Crisis and Post-Democ- Racy
    tripleC 16(1): 1-17, 2018 http://www.triple-c.at Radical Documentaries, Neoliberal Crisis and Post-Democ- racy Eugenia Siapera* and Lambrini Papadopoulou** *Dublin City University, Dublin, Ireland **Panteion University, Athens, Greece Abstract: This article examines radical documentaries in Greece, in the context of neoliberal crisis and post-democracy. In a context where the mainstream media have made themselves irrelevant, facing historical lows in trust and credibility, we found that radical documentaries have emerged outside the commodification of information and form part of the growing social or solidarity economy in Greece. Our analysis shows that these documentaries operate through a different political economy relying on crowdfunding, free distribution and a collabo- rative organisation. Specifically, these documentaries are firmly oriented towards society rather than the political sphere. Further, they seek to recuperate the media through engaging profes- sional media workers, journalists, film directors, academics and actors; they operate through reclaiming media know-how; through radicalising the financing, production and distribution by refusing to participate in commodification processes; and through recreating commonalities by thematising the common, the public, and responsibility towards others. Their specific political role is that of helping to restore the social body and to contribute to processes of commoning, whereby solidarity and social trust is recovered. Keywords: Radical Documentaries, Journalism, Media, Solidarity Economy, Commons, Ne- oliberalism, Crisis, Greece Acknowledgment: A previous version of this article has appeared in Brazilian Portuguese in the Journal Revista Parágrafo. 1. Introduction Greece has been at the epicentre of neoliberal austerity crisis, connected to protracted and deepening social and political crises. The state of affairs in Greece at the moment fits very clearly into the post-democratic scenario that Colin Crouch so eloquently dis- cussed in 2004 and in more depth in 2011.
