  • Political Entertainment Media and the Elaboration Likelihood Model
    Political Entertainment Media and the Elaboration Likelihood Model: A Focus on the Roles of Motivation and Ability Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Heather Lyn LaMarre, MPA, MA Graduate Program in Communication The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: R. Lance Holbert, Advisor David Ewoldsen Silvia Knobloch-Westerwick Michael McCluskey Copyright by Heather Lyn LaMarre 2009 Abstract This dissertation extends the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) to the study of political communication. In particular, the project focuses on the role of ability and motivation, relative to contact with a variety of political entertainment media messages, on cognitive elaborations. Two studies were conducted to examine these political entertainment processes and effects. The first study was a 2 (ability: low, high) x 2 (media stimuli: The Daily Show, Anderson Cooper 360o) between-subjects design that examined individual-level cognitive elaboration and attitudes about the AIG executive bonus scandal involving government bailout funds. The second study was a 2 (motivation: high, low) x 2 (media stimuli: Sicko, Sicko and An American Carol) between-subjects design that examined individual-level cognitive elaboration and attitudes concerning nationalized healthcare. Results replicated traditional ELM findings. Ability and motivation had direct effects on individual-level elaboration. The main effects of ability and motivation were also found for issue-relevant and positively valenced thoughts. Message directly influenced individual-level elaborations, including total and issue-relevant thoughts. Additionally, interactions between message and ability were found for source credibility, counter-arguments, and media engagement.

    THE TEMPLE A Monthly Newsletter of The Temple -Tifereth Israel Beachwood, Ohio November 2017 THE TEMPLE Cheshvan /Kislev 5778 times TIFERETHISRAEL JOIN US FOR FEATURED FRIDAY WITH PROFESSOR JOHN GRABOWSKI, CWRU Friday, November 10 at The Temple 6 PM - Kabbalat Shabbat Service • 7 PM - Shabbat Dinner • 8 PM - Program Who Should Enter the Golden Door? An Immigration Policy in Historical Perspective The current political arguments about American immigration policy are the most recent manifestation of a debate about who should be admitted to the United States. It is a discussion, arguably based on the questions: what are America’s values and what is an “American”? For more than two centuries that discussion has been juxtaposed between idealism and an economic pragmatism often tinged by xenophobia. This presentation traces that debate from the eighteenth cen- tury to the present within the context of changing immigration patterns during that time. Professor Grabowski’s interests and research span the fields of public and academic history. He specializes in the areas of immigration and ethnicity; local (Cleveland) urban history; and public history, particularly the fields of archives and museums. He is the Krieger-Mueller Associate Professor of Applied History at Case Western Reserve University and the Krieger-Mueller Historian and Senior Vice President for Research and Publications at the Western Reserve Historical Society. Sponsored by the Diann G & Thomas A Mann Lecture Fund A 7:00 PM Shabbat Dinner will precede the program. Dinner - $16 per person (reservations required) Shabbat dinner reservations can be made at our Online Payment Center at www.ttti.org, by calling The Temple reservation line at 216.831.3233, ext.

  • Record of the Communications Policy & Research Forum 2009 in Its 2006 National Security Statement, George W
    TWITTER FREE IRAN: AN EVALUATION OF TWITTER’S ROLE IN PUBLIC DIPLOMACY AND INFORMATION OPERATIONS IN IRAN’S 2009 ELECTION CRISIS ALEX BURNS Faculty of Business and Law Victoria University [email protected] BEN ELTHAM Centre for Cultural Research University of Western Sydney and Fellow, Centre for Policy Development [email protected]) Abstract Social media platforms such as Twitter pose new challenges for decision-makers in an international crisis. We examine Twitter’s role during Iran’s 2009 election crisis using a comparative analysis of Twitter investors, US State Department diplomats, citizen activists and Iranian protestors and paramilitary forces. We code for key events during the election’s aftermath from 12 June to 5 August 2009, and evaluate Twitter. Foreign policy, international political economy and historical sociology frameworks provide a deeper context of how Twitter was used by different users for defensive information operations and public diplomacy. Those who believe Twitter and other social network technologies will enable ordinary people to seize power from repressive regimes should consider the fate of Iran’s protestors, some of whom paid for their enthusiastic adoption of Twitter with their lives. Keywords Twitter, foreign policy, international relations, United States, Iran, social networks 1. Research problem, study context and methods The next U.S. administration may well face an Iran again in turmoil. If so, we will be fortunate in not having an embassy in Tehran to worry about. From a safe distance, we can watch the Iranian people, again, fight for their freedom. We can pray that the clerical Gotterdamerung isn’t too bloody, and that the mullahs quickly retreat to their mosques and content themselves primarily with the joys of scholarly disputation.

  • The Usage of Partisan News and Its Impact on Compromise by Laura

This is the final and approved form of the dissertation. The Usage of Partisan News and Its Impact on Compromise Laura Evans Dissertation Research Committee: John Sides, Associate Professor of Political Science, Dissertation Director Kimberly Gross, Associate Professor of Media and Public Affairs, Committee Member Eric Lawrence, Associate Professor of Political Science, Committee Member ii Abstract of Dissertation The Usage of Partisan News and Its Impact on Compromise In the last few years news media has undergone massive fragmentation, calling into question the existence and sustainability of mass media. This trend is compounded by a rise in politically slanted news alternatives. This work will seek to uncover what impact this new media environment, particularly the ability it has given people to selectively choose their news consumption, has on cross-cutting political exposure, ideology and willingness to compromise. I argue that the ability to selectively choose which news outlets and what articles a person will read will cause ideologues to choose those that seem to fit their political point of view.

  • This Is What Occupy Wall Street Looks Like!
    Published on Coffee Party (http://www.coffeepartyusa.com) Home > Blogs > Coffee Party Nation's blog > Printer-friendly PDF What does Occupy Wall Street look like? This is what Occupy Wall Street looks like! Mon, 10/24/2011 - 8:24pm — Coffee Party Nation Occupy Wall Street[1] by John Park On October 5th, when the Steering Committee of Korean Americans for Political Advancement (KAPA), which includes two Coffee Party members, joined the 20,000+ people supporting the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) march, a KAPA member was interviewed by a New York Times reporter and later had her photograph uploaded online under the title: ?What to Wear to a Protest?? This does not reflect what Occupy Wall Street looks like, but it does reflect the problem of why people don?t know. Beholden to revenue-generating forces, even well-respected news establishments aren?t above commercializing resistance or viewing current events through green-tinted lenses. With banks annoying people into becoming their customers with a deluge of well-funded advertisements about what is ?priceless? or ?what?s in your wallet,? and media outlets unafraid of losing their financial support from OWS because, frankly, there isn?t any, it?s easy to see why most people aren?t getting a fair portrayal of who the Occupiers and supporters really are. And the banks aren?t just purchasing the influence of politicians?they are purchasing influence among law enforcement. Large donations were made to NYPD, including the recent donation from J.P. Morgan of $4.6 million, have no doubt exacerbated the already aggressive posture of NYPD towards the protesters.
