The Daily Show with Trevor Noah Presents Podium Pandemonium A ***Please Note: This is a non-televised event.** “THE DAILY SHOW WITH TREVOR NOAH” PRESENTS “PODIUM PANDEMONIUM: A DEBATE ABOUT DEBATES” ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5 AT 8:00 P.M.

Just days before the nation’s first presidential primary “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” will travel to New Hampshire as part of its ongoing coverage of “Democalypse 2016” to present “Podium Pandemonium: A Debate About Debates,” an off-air event moderated by “Daily Show” host, Trevor Noah. The debate will be held in Manchester, NH on Friday, February 5 at 8:00 p.m. in the Grand Ballroom at the Radisson Hotel. Said Noah of this crucial debate: “Debating debates is an important debate to have at this critical moment in the future of debates. I will debate debates anywhere, anytime as long as it's Friday night in New Hampshire. Of course, I might skip the debate, but probably won’t. This debate is too important to America’s future debates to not show up.” Moderated by Noah, “Podium Pandemonium: A Debate About Debates” is a satirical exploration of the presidential candidate debates. Do debates even matter? Is there really ever a “winner”? Why do the attacks and talking points always seem so familiar? Debate participants addressing these topics include Howard Dean, former Governor of Vermont, former Chairman of the Democratic National Committee and 2008 presidential candidate; Michael Steele, former Chairman of the Republican National Committee; Donna Brazile, Vice Chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee; Ryan Lizza, Washington Correspondent, The New Yorker; and Alicia Menendez, Anchor, Fusion who recently moderated the network’s Brown & Black Forum.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • Climate Change Communication in Late-Night Comedy Television
    Fordham University Fordham Research Commons Student Theses 2015-Present Environmental Studies Fall 9-14-2020 Live From New York, It’s Environmental Science! Climate Change Communication in Late-Night Comedy Television Serena A. Ingram Follow this and additional works at: https://research.library.fordham.edu/environ_2015 Live From New York, It’s Environmental Science! Climate Change Communication in Late-Night Comedy Television Serena A. Ingram Abstract This thesis explores why traditional climate change communication often fails in the mainstream news media and how late-night comedy television circumvents these problems. These late-night shows provide humorous news coverage that holds politicians and the press accountable for enabling denialist rhetoric. The first chapter sources data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication to outline the issues of climate change and public understanding of climate science. The second chapter describes how rhetorical analysis can identify effective or ineffective climate communication strategies. It also discusses the emotional factors that surround climate change, and how humor strengthens communication and unifies individuals toward a common goal. The third chapter addresses the issue of politically spun news and information biases in climate reporting. It details how political figures influence news coverage of climate change and spin the news to reinforce their own agendas. The fourth chapter provides examples and analysis of climate change related segments from Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah, and Saturday Night Live’s “Weekend Update.” The fifth chapter applies the principles of late-night comedy and climate change communication to potential government policy and more mainstream television news.

  • Of Covenants and Conflicts- When "I Do" Means More Than It Used To, but Less Than You Thought
    Of Covenants and Conflicts- When "I Do" Means More Than It Used To, But Less Than You Thought JASON ANDREW MACKE* Louisiana's recent passage of a "covenant marriage" law is the first successful attack on the no-fault divorce revolution ofthe Seventies. The law has been championed by supporters as a return to marriages that matter and attacked by detractors as a draconian interference in the private lives of Louisiana's citizens. This Note gives a detailed analysis of the law and concludes that the politicaluproar surrounding the law has obscured the purely legal issues raisedby its passage. This Note addresses several legal arguments againstthe law and concludes that its major flaw lies in its failure to take into account basic conflicts of law principles. The oversight proves to be one that renders the law ineffective in many situations. I. INTRODUCTION Even if marriage has never been easy, it has usually been simple-that is, when two people get married, it is generally understood that they are bound together not only by their vows to each other, but also by the laws of their state. Occasionally, though, things get more complicated-especially when there are questions about the legality of the marriage. In the past, those questions have usually centered on problems of validity-for example, if Jerry Lee and his thirteen-year-old third cousin marry1 in one state, and that marriage would have been illegal under the laws of another state, is the marriage valid? In such cases, courts have generally held that if the marriage was valid when performed and legal in the state where performed, it should be deemed valid in all other states, even if it could never have been performed in those states.

  • What Will It Take to Save Comedy Central?
    What Will it Take to Save Comedy Central? 08.16.2016 Comedy Central's cancellation of The Nightly Show is the latest in a series of signals that all is not well at the network that was once the home of the country's sharpest political satire and news commentary. On Monday, Comedy Central announced that it was cancelling the show, which took Stephen Colbert's Colbert Report time slot in February 2015 when Colbert moved over to CBS' The Late Show. The move was not surprising considering the ratings: The Nightly Show is averaging a barely-there 0.2 among its key demographic of adults 18-49. RELATED: Comedy Central Cancels 'The Nightly Show' But The Nightly Show's failure to catch on is not the only problem at Comedy Central. Consider its late-night partner, The Daily Show, long the network's marquee program with host Jon Stewart. Stewart left the show just over a year ago and was replaced with South African comic Trevor Noah, who was hand-picked by Stewart. But despite Comedy Central's best efforts to reassure the media and audiences that Noah would eventually catch on, so far he hasn't. In May, The Wrap reported that The Daily Show had lost 38% of Stewart's audience among millennials aged 18-34 and 35% in households. And that comes at a time when the country is in the middle of a presidential election that lends itself extremely well to satire. It's also proven to be a mistake to let so much of its talent walk out the door, with Stephen Colbert going to CBS, John Oliver to HBO and Samantha Bee to TBS, taking much of Comedy Central's brand equity with them.

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

  • PC Is Back in South Park: Framing Social Issues Through Satire
    Colloquy Vol. 12, Fall 2016, pp. 101-114 PC Is Back in South Park: Framing Social Issues through Satire Alex Dejean Abstract This study takes an extensive look at the television program South Park episode “Stunning and Brave.” There is limited research that explores the use of satire to create social discourse on concepts related to political correctness. I use framing theory as a primary variable to understand the messages “Stunning and Brave” attempts to convey. Framing theory originated from the theory of agenda setting. Agenda setting explains how media depictions affect how people think about the world. Framing is an aspect of agenda setting that details the organization and structure of a narrative or story. Framing is such an important variable to agenda setting that research on framing has become its own field of study. Existing literature of framing theory, comedy, and television has shown how audiences perceive issues once they have been exposed to media messages. The purpose of this research will review relevant literature explored in this area to examine satirical criticism on the social issue of political correctness. It seems almost unnecessary to point out the effect media has on us every day. Media is a broad term for the collective entities and structures through which messages are created and transmitted to an audience. As noted by Semmel (1983), “Almost everyone agrees that the mass media shape the world around us” (p. 718). The media tells us what life is or what we need for a better life. We have been bombarded with messages about what is better.
