  • This Sunday's Scripture Readings
    Sunday, March 1, 2015 This Sunday’s Scripture Readings 2nd Sunday of Lent http://new.usccb.org/bible/readings/030115.cfm A Spirit of Surrender Genesis 22:1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18 Romans 8:31b-34 Mark 9:2-10 A couple weeks ago, one of the most esteemed media writers in American journalism died: David Carr, of The New York Times. He was fifty-eight. Carr had been battling lung cancer. It wasn’t the only battle he’d waged in his life; Carr was also a recovering drug addict, who wrote of his journey from crack houses and into rehab and a new life in a memoir, Night of the Gun. Carr was eloquent and disarmingly honest about his problems and his recovery. He was also deeply spiritual, and a committed Catholic. In a 2011 interview with NPR’s Terry Gross, he opened up about that side of his life: “CARR: Am I, underneath all things, just a really wonderful, giving person? Or is there a force greater than myself that is leading me to act in ways that are altruistic and not self-interested and lead to the greater good? And so that’s - that’s sort of as far as I’ve gotten with a higher power thing, is I’m - you know, I’m kind of a pirate, kind of a thug. I mean, I’ve done a bunch of terrible things, and yet I’m able to, for the most part, be a decent person. How is that? Do I have some inner strength of character? I think not.

    Case 1:17-cv-02958-GBD Document 5 Filed 04/25/17 Page 1 of 34 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK ----------------------------------------------------------------)( ANDREA TANTAROS, Plaintiff, -- against- Docket No. ------ FO)( NEWS NETWORK, LLC, ROGER AILES, WILLIAM SHINE, IRENA BRIGANTI, PETER COMPLAINT A. SNYDER, DISRUPTOR, INC., and JOHN DOES 1-50. JURY DEMAND Defendants. ---------------------------------------------------------------)( Plaintiff ANDREA T ANTAROS ("Plaintiff or "Ms. Tantaros"), by her attorneys, Judd Burstein, P.C., complaining of the Defendants herein, alleges as follows: INTRODUCTION 1. The criminal conduct described in this Complaint is both highly complex and extremely high-tech - utilizing digital tools and computer/telephony 'hacking', allied media, social media and surreptitious surveillance as replacements for and enhancements to traditional work-place retaliation, extortion, physical threats, and professional/career assassination. Interestingly, this type of professional digital character-assassination (well-known in the political and movie/entertainment industries) is portrayed in a recent episode of the highly popular Showtime Network series, "Homeland." In this episode - entitled "Sock-Puppets" - the techniques described in this Complaint were used to destroy the reputation and public support of a new President-elect. 1 See http://www .newsbusters.org/blogs/culture/lindsay-kornickl20 17 /03/19/homeland-introduces-right- wing-fake-news-accounts Case 1:17-cv-02958-GBD Document 5 Filed 04/25/17 Page 2 of 34 2. For the uninitiated, such criminal activity will seem both bizarre and shocking. But, as shown by the many exhibits annexed to this Complaint, these activities have been long underway at Defendant Fox News, LLC ("Fox News"), and have continued unabated since the departure of Defendant Roger Ailes ("Ailes") from the network.

  • Name Brand: the Rise of the Independent Reporter Through Social Media Dr
    Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Volume: 2 – Issue: 3 – July - 2012 Name Brand: The Rise of the Independent Reporter through Social Media Dr. Brad Schultz, University of Mississippi Dr. Mary Lou Sheffer, University of Southern Mississippi, USA Abstract A theory of branding was applied to news reporters to assess if conditions are right for them to create a personal brand, as opposed to the news brand of their outlet. Attitudinal data were collected through a purposive survey of television and newspaper reporters across the U.S. Results suggested that while reporters are not actively trying to brand themselves, the conditions are ripe for personal branding to take place. Several environmental factors would need to change before such change could occur. © Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies 93 Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Volume: 2 – Issue: 3 – July - 2012 One of the hallmarks of modern society is the concept of celebrity, which has become “an omnipresent feature of contemporary society, blazing lasting impressions in the memories of all who cross its path” (Kurzman, Anderson, Key, Lee, Moloney, Silver & Van Ryn, 2007, 347). Celebrity includes the concepts of privilege and status, but goes beyond them. Sociologists argue that today, “Celebrity is status on speed. It confers honor in days, not generations; it decays over time, rather than accumulating; and it demands a constant supply of new recruits, rather than erecting barriers to entry” (Kurzman, et al., 2007, 347). The emphasis on speed, supply and low barriers to entry have made the social media ideal for the celebrity culture.

  • Influence on Journalism
    Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy Discussion Paper Series A Symbiotic Relationship Between Journalists and Bloggers By Richard Davis Fellow, Shorenstein Center, Spring 2008 Professor of Political Science, Brigham Young University #D-47 © 2008 President and Fellows of Harvard College. All rights reserved. On March 22, 2007, John Edwards’ presidential campaign announced that the candidate and his wife would hold an important press conference that afternoon. Shortly before the press conference, CNN, Fox News, and other cable networks began broadcasting stories that Edwards’ wife, Elizabeth, would announce that her breast cancer was no longer in remission and that her husband would suspend his presidential campaign. While the story spread across the Internet, the campaign told journalists the rumor was not true. However, the campaign’s denial failed to halt the spread of the story. The problem was that the story really was false. When the news conference occurred, the Edwards family announced they would continue their campaign despite the cancer news. Journalists struggled to explain how and why they had given out false information. The source for the news media accounts turned out to be a recently-created blog called Politico.com. In contravention of traditional journalistic standards, the blogger, a former Washington Post reporter, had reported the rumor after hearing it from only one source. The source turned out to be uninformed. The journalist justified his use of only one source, saying that blogs “share information in real time.”1 The Edwards’ campaign story highlights a problem for journalists sharing information “in real time.” While a reporter is seeking confirmation, he or she may find the initial source to be wrong.

  • Stuart Stevens, Romney's Chief Strategist and Svengali, Was Driving to Oxford on a Warm Evening in Late April
    Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy Discussion Paper Series #D-80, September 2013 Did Twitter Kill the Boys on the Bus? Searching for a better way to cover a campaign By Peter Hamby Shorenstein Center Fellow, Spring 2013 CNN Political Reporter Research Assistant: Karly Schledwitz Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License. Stuart’s lament Stuart Stevens, Romney’s chief strategist and all-purpose svengali, was driving to Oxford on a warm evening in late April. A sixth-generation Mississippian whose first job in politics was an internship for then-congressman Thad Cochran in the 1970s, Stevens had just flown in from Los Angeles, where he is developing a television project for HBO, to appear on yet another panel looking back on the 2012 campaign. The latest one was being hosted by an old pal, the reporter and author Curtis Wilkie, a veteran of eight presidential campaigns who now teaches journalism at the University of Mississippi. Stevens has never been shy about discussing—or decrying—the state of the political news media. Almost every reporter who covered the 2012 race can recall waking up to find a late-night email from Stevens bemoaning a story, or tweet, about Romney. A number of his compatriots on the Romney campaign, including communications director Gail Gitcho, spokeswoman Andrea Saul, and Deputy Campaign Manager Katie Packer Gage, were also known to fire off barbed emails to reporters about tweets they saw as silly or unfair. Stevens’ missives were often more whimsical or esoteric than mean, but it was clear he harbored some deep resentments about the press and its treatment of his candidate.
