  • How the TV Debates Were Organised in #GE2015 and Their Impact: the Full Story

Here is the section on the negotiations that led to the TV ‘debates’ and their impact – for the full chapter and the authoritative record of all aspects of that campaign, get the book here! By Charlie Beckett, Professor in the Department of Media and Communications, LSE and director of Polis, the LSE’s journalism think-tank. @CharlieBeckett In this election broadcasting tried to reflect a changing political landscape. Television in particular was challenged to adjust to the impact of the smaller parties such as the Greens, UKIP and the SNP. Editorially, broadcasters had to cover a diverse range of issues of varying degrees of scale, importance and relevance to different audiences. All journalists, but most obviously broadcasters, found themselves limited in scope by the unprecedented levels of party stage-management. There were the usual concerns about delivering impartiality and information but perhaps the hardest task for the broadcast journalists was to fulfil their key democratic functions at election time: to engage the public and to hold politicians to account. The strategic reluctance of the main parties to conduct more open campaigns meant that the desire for dramatic broadcasting to match the significance of the stakes was frustrated. Like all journalists, broadcasters were also misled by erroneous polling to construct a false narrative around the relative success of the two main parties.

  • Background Scottish Screen Is the National Government
    Background Scottish Screen is the national government-backed agency responsible for developing all aspects of screen industry and culture across Scotland, focusing on the following five priority objectives: 1. Education – to ensure that people of all ages and backgrounds are inspired and equipped to analyse, appreciate, explore, create and share screen media; 2. Enterprise and Skills - to ensure that there are appropriate levels of skilled individuals and viable companies to sustain all aspects of the screen industries across Scotland; 3. Inward Investment - to promote Scotland as a dynamic, competitive and successful screen production hub; 4. Market Development - to ensure that the widest range of screen product reaches and is appreciated by a diversity of audiences; 5. Talent and Creativity - to identify nurture, develop, support and progress Scotland’s screen talent and screen production companies. Scottish Screen welcomes this opportunity to comment upon Phase One of Ofcom’s second Public Service Broadcasting (PSB) Review. We agree with Ofcom that PSB in Scotland faces some distinctive challenges and welcome its recognition that ‘one size does not fit all’ in relation to PSB in the Nations and regions. Our response is organised around answering the consultation questions which we believe to be most relevant to PSB in Scotland (see below). However, we also wish to signal up front the importance of one issue which is not specifically raised as a question by Ofcom, namely the close relationship between the PSB Review and the Digital Dividend Review. Ofcom’s recommendations regarding access to High Definition services by the current PSBs and its adoption of a purely market led approach to the release of new spectrum are two examples of the way in which the Digital Dividend Review methodology and timetable run a real risk of precluding an innovative approach to PSB in Scotland.

  • British Prime Minister Tony Blair's Irish Potato Famine Apology
    Bridgewater State University Virtual Commons - Bridgewater State University Communication Studies Faculty Publications Communication Studies Department 2014 British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s Irish Potato Famine Apology Jason A. Edwards Bridgewater State University, [email protected] Amber Luckie Virtual Commons Citation Edwards, Jason A. and Luckie, Amber (2014). British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s Irish Potato Famine Apology. In Communication Studies Faculty Publications. Paper 41. Available at: http://vc.bridgew.edu/commstud_fac/41 This item is available as part of Virtual Commons, the open-access institutional repository of Bridgewater State University, Bridgewater, Massachusetts. E-journal promoted by the Campus for Peace, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya http://journal-of-conflictology.uoc.edu ARTICLE British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s Irish Potato Famine Apology Jason A. Edwards Amber Luckie Submitted: June 2013 Accepted: October 2013 Published: May 2014 Abstract In June 1997, Prime Minister Tony Blair issued a statement expressing remorse for the British government’s inaction to assist the Irish during the potato famine of the late 1840s. Blair’s contrition was met with praise and criticism, but it proved to be part of the larger narrative in the peace negotiations within Northern Ireland. Although Blair’s apology is often cited as an exemplar of political leaders apologizing for historical injustices, little actual scholarly work on this subject has been conducted. To that end, this paper examines Blair’s potato famine apology through the theory of collective apology. We argue that collective apologies serve to build, repair, renew, and strengthen bonds between communities harmed by historical wrongdoing. Moreover, collective apologies are meditations in collective memory about the past, present, and future relationship between communities.

Twenty-six interviews with recent UK party leaders were analysed in terms of questions, replies, and personalisation. The majority of personalised responses contained elements of criticism, although over a quarter were more amicable.

  • Personalised Responses and Equivocation in Political Interviews
    Journal of Social and Political Psychology jspp.psychopen.eu | 2195-3325 Original Research Reports “You’re Important, Jeremy, but Not That Important”: Personalised Responses and Equivocation in Political Interviews Maurice Waddle* a, Peter Bull ab [a] Department of Psychology, University of York, York, United Kingdom. [b] Department of Psychology, University of Salford, Manchester, United Kingdom. Abstract This study was an assessment of personalised equivocation in political interviews, namely, politicians’ responses to questions which, in lieu of an explicit reply, are directed personally at the interviewer. Twenty-six interviews with recent UK party leaders were analysed in terms of questions, replies, and personalisation. The majority of personalised responses contained elements of criticism, although over a quarter were more amicable. For the eight featured politicians, the use of such responses was adjudged to be more about individual communicative style than their position on the political spectrum. Only one politician did not respond in this manner, indicating a more widespread use of personalisation than was previously suggested. Furthermore, an evaluation of interviewer follow-ups showed its effectiveness as a diversionary tactic in the face of troublesome questions. In terms of the proportion of questions which receive a full reply, a general reply rate analysis highlighted how recent political leaders have changed little from their predecessors. Keywords: personalization, political discourse, evasion, reply rate, personal attacks, flattery, banter Non-Technical Summary Background Commentators and researchers have highlighted an occasional tendency for some politicians, when faced with a challenging question, to direct their response personally at the interviewer. Such behaviour is often referred to, metaphorically, as “playing the man, not the ball”.
