    Analysis of Talk Shows Between Obama and Trump Administrations by Jack Norcross — 69

    Analysis of Talk Shows Between Obama and Trump Administrations by Jack Norcross — 69 An Analysis of the Political Affiliations and Professions of Sunday Talk Show Guests Between the Obama and Trump Administrations Jack Norcross Journalism Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract The Sunday morning talk shows have long been a platform for high-quality journalism and analysis of the week’s top political headlines. This research will compare guests between the first two years of Barack Obama’s presidency and the first two years of Donald Trump’s presidency. A quantitative content analysis of television transcripts was used to identify changes in both the political affiliations and profession of the guests who appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” CBS’s “Face the Nation,” ABC’s “This Week” and “Fox News Sunday” between the two administrations. Findings indicated that the dominant political viewpoint of guests differed by show during the Obama administration, while all shows hosted more Republicans than Democrats during the Trump administration. Furthermore, U.S. Senators and TV/Radio journalists were cumulatively the most frequent guests on the programs. I. Introduction Sunday morning political talk shows have been around since 1947, when NBC’s “Meet the Press” brought on politicians and newsmakers to be questioned by members of the press. The show’s format would evolve over the next 70 years, and give rise to fellow Sunday morning competitors including ABC’s “This Week,” CBS’s “Face the Nation” and “Fox News Sunday.” Since the mid-twentieth century, the overall media landscape significantly changed with the rise of cable news, social media and the consumption of online content.

    Pawn Stars: Putting Theories of Negotiation to the Test

    European Journal of Contemporary Economics and Management December 2014 Edition Vol.1 No.2 PAWN STARS: PUTTING THEORIES OF NEGOTIATION TO THE TEST Bryan C. Mc Cannon, PhD John Stevens,M.A. Saint Bonaventure University, U.S.A. Doi: 10.19044/elp.v1no2a4 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/elp.v1no2a4 Abstract Theories of negotiations are tested using a unique data set. The History Channel television show Pawn Stars portrays negotiations between customers and agents of a pawn shop. This provides a novel data set not typically available to researchers as the tactics of bargaining can be observed, recorded, and analyzed. Many, but not all, of the primary theories of negotiations developed receive empirical support. The use of experts, experience of the negotiators, the gap between the initial offers, and the use of final offers all affect the likelihood of a deal being made as well as the division of the surplus. The party making the opening offer suffers a disadvantage, which stands in contrast to predictions of sequential bargaining and anchoring effects. Keywords: Asymmetric information, bargaining, experts, final offer, negotiation, Pawn Stars Introduction Negotiating is a central activity within any organization. A systematic evaluation of the success of the methods used and the environment within which negotiations are taking place must be developed. To be able to formulate and implement successful strategies, an organization must appreciate the effectiveness of the process involved. Previous management research focuses on the relationship between the bargaining process and outcomes. Wall (1984) investigates, for example, the impact of mediator proposals on bargaining outcomes.

    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 4, No. 5, pp. 965-972, May 2014 © 2014 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland. doi:10.4304/tpls.4.5.965-972 The Analysis of Writers’ Stance: A Comparison between Two Reviews on Desperate Housewives Xiufeng Tian Hebei Finance University, Baoding City, China Yueyuan Liang Guizhou University for Nationalities, Guizhou, China Abstract—In this essay, we are trying to detect writers’ stance in written discourse through analyzing two reviews on the same TV series: Desperate Housewives. Desperate Housewives is a fictive TV series produced by ABC Studios. It depicts the lives of four housewives and their families. Due to different contexts, each of the reviews selected to be analyzed represents different stance, with which we are going to compare through different writing topics and purposes, readership, writers’ attitudes and assessment from different angles. Index Terms—stance, Desperate Housewives, ideology, ideational meanings, interpersonal meanings I. INTRODUCTION Bloor and Bloor (2007) point out that all writers “take up some position in relation to the propositions they make” (p. 33). Those positions taken by writers can be defined as stance that is “a textual voice or community recognized personality which, following others” (Hyland, 2005, p. 176). This can be inferred that the stance writer takes in his/her text may have represented the views and attitudes of him/herself as an individual or those of a group. Usually the stance can be conscious or unconscious, explicit or hidden (Bloor & Bloor, 2007). In reviews, the writers’ positions could be supportive, disapproving or neutral. However, no matter what stance they choose to take, they must have directly or indirectly shown it through their language choices and objective focuses.
