  • Marc Chase - President of Tribune Interactive!
    SURELY YOU CAN’T BE SERIOUS? MARC CHASE - PRESIDENT OF TRIBUNE INTERACTIVE! Randy Michaels’ run of acquiring radio-management stars came to a screeching halt today with Chase’s appointment CHICAGO, April 7, 2008 – Another freaking Clear Channel Communications executive on the payroll and this one’s been named President of Tribune Interactive. Tribune Broadcasting’s Randy Michaels’ past finally caught up with him when Marc Chase obviously blackmailed his way into a position he is not remotely qualified to hold. Insiders are irate. Chase is a fraud. A source inside Tribune HR, who wished to remain anonymous, pointed out that Marc Chase’s resume (below) was obviously fabricated. First of all, his name isn’t even Marc Chase--it’s Mark Thompson. The whole thing is a sham.

  • An Introduction to the Police Procedural: a Subgenre of the Detective Genre*
    Vol. 31, No. 1 (February 2019) HUMANIORA page 33—40 https://jurnal.ugm.ac.id/jurnal-humaniora https://doi.org/10.22146/jh.v31i1.15309 An Introduction to the Police Procedural: A Subgenre of the Detective Genre* Fitria Akhmerti Primasita1; Heddy Shri Ahimsa-Putra2 1 English Department, Sebelas Maret University Surakarta, Indonesia; 2 Department of Anthropology, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia Corresponding Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Based on library research and observation, this paper aims to introduce the police procedural as a subgenre of the detective genre. To achieve this aim, this paper elaborates three definitions of police procedural. The discussion shows that experts have apparently provided a working definition of the police procedural after having identified how the new variant is different from, and yet remains the same as the “parent” genre. While the third definition puts emphasis on the authentic and realistic aspects of the police procedural, the first two definitions can be used as a reference to elaborately discuss the police procedural as a variant or subgenre of the detective genre. The police procedural retains the basic conventional elements of the detective genre—plot and motifs, character, setting, theme, and props, but it twists these elements and turns them into an invention with the intention of keeping the interest of the readers and viewers. Having established itself as a subgenre, the police procedural has grown to become formulaic by creating its own conventions. It is a formula that is generally employed by writers and has come to be expected by readers or viewers. By doing so, the police procedural has helped the detective genre as its “parents” genre stay popular.
