In precipitating the current framework’ decisive demise, I predict drones will also bring about a veritable privacy revolution that will renew the court’s institutional vitality and the Fourth Amendment’s enduring legitimacy. This privacy renaissance will likely occur in one of three ways. First, if the logic underlying the special needs and foreign intelligence exceptions are expanded to include a new “National Security Exception" to accommodate the extraordinary intelligence capabilities

  • Podcasting As Public Media: the Future of U.S
    International Journal of Communication 14(2020), 1683–1704 1932–8036/20200005 Podcasting as Public Media: The Future of U.S. News, Public Affairs, and Educational Podcasts PATRICIA AUFDERHEIDE American University, USA DAVID LIEBERMAN The New School, USA ATIKA ALKHALLOUF American University, USA JIJI MAJIRI UGBOMA The New School, USA This article identifies a U.S.-based podcasting ecology as public media and then examines the threats to its future. It first identifies characteristics of a set of podcasts in the United States that allow them to be usefully described as public podcasting. Second, it looks at current business trends in podcasting as platformization proceeds. Third, it identifies threats to public podcasting’s current business practices. Finally, it analyzes responses within public podcasting to the potential threats. The article concludes that currently, the public podcast ecology in the United States maintains some immunity from the most immediate threats, but there are also underappreciated threats to it, both internally and externally. Keywords: podcasting, public media, platformization, business trends, public podcasting ecology As U.S. podcasting becomes a commercially viable part of the media landscape, are its public service functions at risk? This article explores that question, in the process postulating that the concept of public podcasting has utility in describing not only a range of podcasting practices, but also an ecology within the larger podcasting ecology—one that permits analysis of both business methods and social practices, and one that deserves attention and even protection. This analysis contributes to the burgeoning literature on Patricia Aufderheide: [email protected] David Lieberman: [email protected] Atika Alkhallouf: [email protected] Jiji Majiri Ugboma: [email protected] Date submitted: 2019‒09‒27 Copyright © 2020 (Patricia Aufderheide, David Lieberman, Atika Alkhallouf, and Jiji Majiri Ugboma).
