  • Political Entertainment Media and the Elaboration Likelihood Model
    Political Entertainment Media and the Elaboration Likelihood Model: A Focus on the Roles of Motivation and Ability Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Heather Lyn LaMarre, MPA, MA Graduate Program in Communication The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: R. Lance Holbert, Advisor David Ewoldsen Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick Michael McCluskey Copyright by Heather Lyn LaMarre 2009 Abstract This dissertation extends the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) to the study of political communication. In particular, the project focuses on the role of ability and motivation, relative to contact with a variety of political entertainment media messages, on cognitive elaborations. Two studies were conducted to examine these political entertainment processes and effects. The first study was a 2 (ability: low, high) x 2 (media stimuli: The Daily Show, Anderson Cooper 360o) between-subjects design that examined individual-level cognitive elaboration and attitudes about the AIG executive bonus scandal involving government bailout funds. The second study was a 2 (motivation: high, low) x 2 (media stimuli: Sicko, Sicko and An American Carol) between-subjects design that examined individual-level cognitive elaboration and attitudes concerning nationalized healthcare. Results replicated traditional ELM findings. Ability and motivation had direct effects on individual-level elaboration. The main effects of ability and motivation were also found for issue-relevant and positively valenced thoughts. Message directly influenced individual-level elaborations, including total and issue-relevant thoughts. Additionally, interactions between message and ability were found for source credibility, counter-arguments, and media engagement.

  • The Donald Trump-Rupert Murdoch Relationship in the United States
    The Donald Trump-Rupert Murdoch relationship in the United States When Donald Trump ran as a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, Rupert Murdoch was reported to be initially opposed to him, so the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post were too.1 However, Roger Ailes and Murdoch fell out because Ailes wanted to give more positive coverage to Trump on Fox News.2 Soon afterwards, however, Fox News turned more negative towards Trump.3 As Trump emerged as the inevitable winner of the race for the nomination, Murdoch’s attitude towards Trump appeared to shift, as did his US news outlets.4 Once Trump became the nominee, he and Rupert Murdoch effectively concluded an alliance of mutual benefit: Murdoch’s news outlets would help get Trump elected, and then Trump would use his powers as president in ways that supported Rupert Murdoch’s interests. An early signal of this coming together was Trump’s public attacks on the AT&T-Time Warner merger, 21st Century Fox having tried but failed to acquire Time Warner previously in 2014. Over the last year and a half, Fox News has been the major TV news supporter of Donald Trump. Its coverage has displayed extreme bias in his favour, offering fawning coverage of his actions and downplaying or rubbishing news stories damaging to him, while also leading attacks against Donald Trump’s opponent in the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton. Ofcom itself ruled that several Sean Hannity programmes in August 2016 were so biased in favour of Donald Trump and against Hillary Clinton that they breached UK impartiality rules.5 During this period, Rupert Murdoch has been CEO of Fox News, in which position he is also 1 See e.g.

Kaiser• In Chechovian drama, chest pains are followed by heart at­ tacks, coughs by consumption, life insurance policies by murders, telephone rings by dramatic messages. In real life, most chest pains are indigestion, coughs are colds, insurance policies are followed by years of premium payments, and tel­ ephone calls are from marketing services. 1 With these words, the never-reticent Alan Dershowitz throws cold water on the legal storytelling movement. According to Der­ showitz, "life is not a dramatic narrative."2 Indeed, such was the title of his article criticizing legal storytelling.3 And the problem with lawyers, he thinks, is not that they do not make a sufficient effort to tell a legal story.

  • Jeffrey Toobin Staff Writer, the New Yorker; Chief Legal Analyst, CNN
    Jeffrey Toobin Staff Writer, The New Yorker; Chief Legal Analyst, CNN September 26, 2019 House Judiciary Committee Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet “The Federal Judiciary in the 21st Century: Ensuring the Public’s Right of Access to the Courts” Thank you for the opportunity to testify, Mr. Chairman. My name is Jeffrey Toobin. I am a staff writer at the New Yorker magazine and the chief legal analyst at CNN. My views today are my own. I graduated from law school in 1986. After a judicial clerkship, I had the honor of being a federal prosecutor for six years – first with the Office of Independent Counsel and then as an Assistant United States Attorney in the Eastern District of New York. There is no greater privilege for a lawyer than to appear in a courtroom representing the United States. I joined the New Yorker in 1993 and CNN in 2002. I am working on my eighth book, about the Mueller investigation. Two of my books – The Nine and The Oath – have been about the United States Supreme Court, which I have covered as a journalist for more than twenty years. I’ve also had the opportunity to cover many high-profile trials – including those of O.J. Simpson, Timothy McVeigh, Martha Stewart, and Michael Skakel. Some were televised. Some were not. I should note that in the course of my work in the federal courts, I have had occasion to try to rely on the PACER system many times. Frankly, PACER is a disaster, and I’d like to express my appreciation in particular to Congressman Collins, who has been such a leader in the effort to improve PACER.

  • New York Law Journal
    Originally published in New York Law Journal August 28, 2020 Book Review: 'True Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Investigation of Donald Trump' By Joel Cohen and Dale J. Degenshein If you’re looking for a book that discloses dirty little secrets, this isn’t it. I doubt, by the way, that such a book without the baggage of a Trump hater or lover will come along anyway. “True Crimes and Misdemeanors: The Investigation of Donald Trump,” Jeffrey Toobin, Doubleday, 2020, 456 pages ooking back, as outsiders, both the criminal investigation and impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump were foreordained and doomed from the start, weren’t L they? Think about it. Still, what about the principals? What and when did they know? Didn’t Special Counsel Robert Mueller know the minute his “law man”—former deputy solicitor general Michael Dreeben— told him, early in the game, that official Justice Department policy unambiguously forbade the Justice Department (Mueller was indeed “employed” by the Justice Department) from indicting a sitting president? Wasn’t Mueller, after all, all but fastidious in following the department’s rules of engagement? And didn’t the adroit politico that Speaker Nancy Pelosi is know right away that a McConnell- led Senate would never, especially with the strong economy going for him at the time, convict a president who was then the very lifeblood of the Republican Party—a figure, consistent with his own braggadocio, who could “stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and not lose voters”? After all, wasn’t just about everything that Trump had done been done in plain sight? And if it wasn’t, he seemed almost delighted to admit what he did to the world.

SEBELIUS Steven Lubet∗ Clare Diegel∗∗ I. INTRODUCTION The Supreme Court litigation over the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”) came to a conclusion in the first half of 2012, characterized by a series of surprises. The first surprise occurred when the Court scheduled the case for six hours of oral argument, spread over three days. Such an expanded argument was unprecedented in modern times, leading to much speculation that the issues would be more troublesome for the Court than many observers had previously assumed. Still, even veteran court watchers were further shocked by the combative tone of the oral argument itself, when Justices Scalia, Alito, Kennedy, and Roberts seemed to gang up on Solicitor General Donald Verrilli, who defended the PPACA on behalf of the government.

In 2015, Copeland made headlines and broke barriers when she became the first African American woman promoted to principal dancer for the renowned American Ballet Theatre (ABT) in the company’s 75-year history. “Misty danced right through the racial, economic, and body image barriers that keep many women from pursuing their dreams and reaching their full potential,” said Lauren Y. Casteel, president and CEO of WFCO. “Despite messages that she did not fit the mold of a traditional ballerina, she persevered and has become a symbol of hope, possibility, and perseverance for women everywhere. We believe all girls and women have the right to feel hopeful about their futures and there’s no one better than Misty to look to for inspiration.” Recent highlights from Misty Copeland’s career include: Soaring to new heights as the first African American female principal dancer at American Ballet Theatre Debuting on Broadway as Ivy Smith/Miss Turnstiles in
