Text 1 It beats Stoke on a cold Sunday BIRTHDAY boy Wayne Rooney roasted in the 32°C heat of Dubai yesterday - as his Man Utd team-mates battled 8°C temperatures in STOKE. By ALEX PEAKE Published: 25 October 2010 1. The injured striker joined wife Coleen at their hotel's pool bar as he celebrated turning 25 - days after landing a £250,000-a-week contract to stay at Old Trafford. 2. Meanwhile United were at Stoke City's chilly Britannia Stadium in Staffordshire, where they ground out a 2-1 victory - with both goals coming from his replacement Javier Hernandez. 3. Roo jetted out to the seven-star Burj Al Arab hotel in the United Arab Emirates with Coleen, 24, after sharing an emotional heart-to-heart chat with United boss Sir Alex Ferguson. 4. It followed the England star's dramatic decision to remain with the club last week, having earlier declared he was ready to leave. 5. He and Coleen spent most of yesterday relaxing at the pool bar - laughing and joking as they toasted his birthday with glasses of chilled pink champagne. 6. Coleen, who left baby son Kai at home, looked sensational in a skimpy bikini, while Roo wore shades as he stood chatting with water up to his neck. ----------------------------------------- 10 Text 2 Sir Alex Ferguson implies agent is to blame for the Wayne Rooney saga 'Agents are all the same and some can be very difficult' Gary Neville admits he was lucky not to be sent off By Stuart James at the Britannia Stadium Published Sunday 24 October 2010 21.49 BST 1. Sir Alex Ferguson tonight launched a thinly veiled attack on Paul Stretford. 2. The Manchester United manager implied that Wayne Rooney's agent, and not the player, had been responsible for last week's turbulent events at Old Trafford. 3. Ferguson appeared to suggest that Stretford had made life "difficult" in the talks that eventually led to Rooney agreeing a new five-year contract with the club. 4. "It is always tough at United," Ferguson said. "There are always issues to deal with. When your top players come towards the end of their contracts you have to do something to get them a new one. They are all the same. You have to deal with agents of this world today, which is difficult. The players are no problem. There is no problem with players. Some agents are difficult." 5. Ferguson was speaking after United, without Rooney, beat Stoke City 2-1 with two Javier Hernández goals for a first Premier League away win of the season. 6. The United manager urged his players to use the result as a springboard in their pursuit of Chelsea. 7. "Hopefully we can now kick on," he said. "We have some important games between now and Christmas time and we have to make our mark in the league now." 11 LECTURE 4 (Week 4) Language and politics Key reading: *Mooney, A. & Evans, B. (eds) (2015) Language, society and power. (4th edition) Oxon: Routledge. (Chapter 3) *Simpson, P. & Mayr, A. (2010) Language and power: A resource book for students. London & New York: Routledge (Chapters A10, B10, C10) Key concepts: Politics Ideology Rhetoric Metaphor Simile Rule of three Parallelism Euphemism and dysphemism Legitimation and delegitimation Representation and misrepresentation Aims of session: To look at politics and what this term might mean To examine political speeches To become familiar with linguistic tools which enable analysts to understand how persuasion works and how power relations are build and sustained 12 Exercise 1: How do ideologies emerge? Consider the following example: Christopher Columbus discovered America. Which ‘truth’ does language in the above example represent? For which social group? Is this group powerful? Exercise 2: Metaphors Identify the metaphor in the example below. What is the effect of its use? ‘Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms.’ (Obama, 2009) Exercise 3: Euphemism/dysphemism Identify the euphemism/dysphemism in the examples below. On September the 11th, enemies of freedom committed an act of war against our country’ ‘Fellow citizens, we’ll meet violence with patient justice – assured of the rightness of our cause, and confident of the victories to come’ 13 LECTURE 5 (Week 5) New Media Key reading: *Mooney, A.

    Universiteit Gent, Faculteit Psychologie en Pedagogische Wetenschappen Academiejaar 2014-2015 De representatie van leraren en onderwijs in populaire cultuur. Een retorische analyse van South Park Jasper Leysen 01003196 Promotor: Dr. Kris Rutten Masterproef neergelegd tot het behalen van de graad van master in de Pedagogische Wetenschappen, afstudeerrichting Pedagogiek & Onderwijskunde Voorwoord Het voorwoord schrijven voelt als een echte verlossing aan, want dit is het teken dat mijn masterproef is afgewerkt. Anderhalf jaar heb ik op geregelde basis gezwoegd, gevloekt en getwijfeld, maar het overheersende gevoel is toch voldoening. Voldoening om een werk af te hebben waar veel tijd en moeite is ingekropen. Voldoening om een werk af te hebben waar ik toch wel fier op ben. Voldoening om een werk af te hebben dat ik zelfstandig op poten heb gezet en heb afgewerkt. Althans hoofdzakelijk zelfstandig, want ik kan er niet omheen dat ik regelmatig hulp heb gekregen van mensen uit mijn omgeving. Het is dan ook niet meer dan normaal dat ik ze hier even bedank. In de eerste plaats wil ik mijn promotor, dr. Kris Rutten, bedanken. Ik kon steeds bij hem terecht met vragen en opmerkingen en zijn feedback gaf me altijd nieuwe moed en inspiratie om aan mijn thesis verder te werken. Ik apprecieer vooral zijn snelle en efficiënte manier van handelen. Nooit heb ik lang moeten wachten op een antwoord, nooit heb ik vele uren zitten verdoen op zijn bureau. Bedankt! Ten tweede wil ik ook graag Ayna, Detlef, Diane, Katoo, Laure en Marijn bedanken voor deelname aan mijn focusgroep. Hun inzichten hebben ervoor gezorgd dat mijn analyses meer gefundeerd werden, hun enthousiasme heeft ertoe bijgedragen dat ik besefte dat mijn thesis zeker een bijdrage is voor het onderzoeksveld.

  • American Monsters: Tabloid Media and the Satanic Panic, 1970-2000
    AMERICAN MONSTERS: TABLOID MEDIA AND THE SATANIC PANIC, 1970-2000 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Sarah A. Hughes May 2015 Examining Committee Members: Kenneth L. Kusmer, Advisory Chair, History Carolyn Kitch, Journalism Susan E. Klepp, History Elaine Tyler May, External Member, University of Minnesota, American Studies © Copyright 2015 by Sarah A. Hughes All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT “American Monsters: Tabloid Media and the Satanic Panic, 1970-2000,” analyzes an episode of national hysteria that dominated the media throughout most of the 1980s. Its origins, however, go back much farther and its consequences for the media would extend into subsequent decades. Rooted in the decade’s increasingly influential conservative political ideology, the satanic panic involved hundreds of accusations that devil-worshipping pedophiles were operating America’s white middle-class suburban daycare centers. Communities around the country became embroiled in criminal trials against center owners, the most publicized of which was the McMartin Preschool trial in Manhattan Beach, California. The longest and most expensive trial in the nation’s history, the McMartin case is an important focal point of this project. In the 1990s, judges overturned the life sentences of defendants in most major cases, and several prominent journalists and lawyers condemned the phenomenon as a witch-hunt. They accurately understood it to be a powerful delusion, or what contemporary cultural theorist Jean Baudrillard termed a “hyperreality,” in which audiences confuse the media universe for real life. Presented mainly through tabloid television, or “infotainment,” and integral to its development, influence, and success, the panic was a manifestation of the hyperreal.

  • Going Down to South Park: Reporting the News on Television’S Most Politically and Socially Irreverent Animated Series
    Going Down to South Park: Reporting the News on Television’s Most Politically and Socially Irreverent Animated Series By Todd Smilovitz Abstract The image of the journalist on South Park is not one to be proud of. Journalists appear on more than half of the episodes in the show’s first nine seasons, but they are mostly purveyors of news that is opinionated, baseless, soft, sentimental, naïve, late-breaking and/or sensationalistic. Behind all of this shallow reporting is a quest by news media for ratings: the profit motive distorts news. The fact that almost all South Park journalism is broadcast news, which naturally tends to focus on sound bites rather than in-depth analysis, only enhances this effect. Whether the image of the journalist on South Park is a reflection of the modern American media, or vice versa, is left unsettled and to the eye of the beholder. * * * “A Sexy Action News Team Special Report: ‘Cough Medicine Abuse in School’ with the Sexy Action School News Team. It’s the report you can’t afford to miss.”1 -- Announcer setting up the boys’ final attempt to grab high ratings for their elementary school news show While this Sexy Action News Team special report could actually be seen as investigative journalism, it only comes about after more sensationalistic methods for becoming the number Going Down to South Park By Todd Smilovitz 2 one South Park Elementary School news show fail. In other words, the serious, investigative content of the show is only incidental to the profit motive. Live, late-breaking special reports by eyewitness news teams are the real king of South Park journalism.

    Appendix: Additional Images of Journalists in South Park By Todd Smilovitz Episode 1: “Cartman Gets an Anal Probe.” First aired August 13, 1997. Directed by: Uncredited. Written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Aliens abduct Eric Cartman and install a satellite dish in his rectum. News 8 reports on crop circles, which actually look like Eric in outline. A field reporter says, “Could it be that aliens are trying to make contact with us here on Earth?” Episode 2: “Volcano.” First aired August 20, 1997. Directed by: Uncredited. Written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone. A volcano erupts near South Park while the boys are camping on its mountainside. Mostly banal reporting on the story by HBC standards, but Tom’s thoughts on the successful rescue of the boys is a bit melodramatic. “And now these humble people can rejoice and celebrate their jovial victory over nature. I’m getting word that the chef of the school cafeteria wants to sing a song about this thrilling struggle of humanity.” Episode 3: “Weight Gain 4000.” First aired August 27, 1997. Directed by: Uncredited. Written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Eric Cartman, already overweight, begins inhaling Weight Gain 4000 to become buff. Instead, he becomes a Jabba the Hut look-alike. Meanwhile, Kathy Lee Gifford is coming to town to present Eric with an award for best essay on the rainforest. He actually wrote the essay by copying from On Walden Pond. Unfortunately for Eric, Kathy Lee is almost assassinated and leaves town just before handing the award to Eric. Eric says, “Hey, wait a minute, when do I get to be on television?” The reporter answers, “Forget it, kid.

  • Comments Submitted by the Pew Charitable Trusts on Behalf of 12,381 Members of the Public
    Comments submitted by The Pew Charitable Trusts on behalf of 12,381 members of the public Thomas A. Nies, executive director New England Fishery Management Council 50 Water St., Mill #2 Newburyport, MA 01950 RE: Atlantic Herring Amendment 8 Scoping Comments Dear Mr. Nies: Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this important matter for the Northeast’s marine ecosystem. I support the decision of the New England Fishery Management Council (NEFMC) to explicitly account for Atlantic herring’s unique role as a forage fish in the ecosystem when setting catch limits. Herring is a valuable public resource. I commend the council for regarding this determination as an ecosystem issue and engaging experts in ecosystem-based fisheries management. Although the NEFMC initiated Amendment 8, it is not simply a New England issue. During annual migrations, Atlantic herring journey as far south as North Carolina and as far north as Nova Scotia. Herring has always been an important part of the marine food web throughout its range, but it has become even more vital with the decline of other forage species such as river herring, shad, mackerel, and menhaden. Recent scientific research supports leaving enough forage fish such as herring in the ocean to support not only their own population, but also viable populations of other species that depend on them. Many herring predators are depleted, and keeping enough herring in the ocean would improve the chances of recovery for cod, tuna, whales, and seabirds. I urge the NEFMC to consider alternatives for Amendment 8 that are based on this latest scientific guidance for managing forage fish.
