Debatin Professor of Journalism Scott Titsworth Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii Abstract ARMSTRONG, ERIN H., Ph.D., December 2013, Journalism Political Campaigning 2.0: How the Obama-Biden and McCain-Palin Campaigns and Web Users Framed Race, Gender, and Age Director of Dissertation: Bernhard S. Debatin This qualitative study explores the impact of new media, specifically social media and campaign websites with greater direct user participation and involvement. With the historic election of the first black president of the United States, Barack Obama, and the candidacy of the first Republican woman nominated for vice-president, Sarah Palin, the 2008 presidential and vice-presidential campaigns remain important for study. “Political Campaigning 2.0” analyzes campaign and user-generated web content covering a wide array of new media: Facebook, MySpace, YouTube, Wikipedia, Twitter, and campaign websites. The study is based on Erving Goffman’s theories of Framing and Impression Management and complemented with James Grunig’s Situational Theory of Publics. In contrast to other studies, this research includes the issue of age and explores the intersectionality of race, gender, and age. It uses a multi-method approach, combining textual analysis with in-depth interviews, focus groups, and self-reports made up of 66 Ohio University undergraduate student participants. Findings reveal that a majority of web users interpreted and represented the Democratic candidates in the same way as the campaign framed them, indicating convergent and successful representation in terms of race, gender, and age. The Obama- Biden campaign was able to take advantage of Obama’s race as a historic milestone and Biden’s age as a sign of experience. In contrast, most web users interpreted and iii represented Republican candidates differently than intended by the McCain-Palin campaign, indicating a divergence in framing. A majority of users framed McCain as old, rather than experienced, and Palin as inexperienced, rather than a “maverick.” The McCain-Palin campaign worked to represent Palin as a candidate who would appeal to women, but her representation in terms of gender did not resonate with a majority of web users. Emphasizing the importance of new media technology, this study shows how the 2008 campaigns traversed racial tolerance, gendered roles, and an increasing generational gap. It proposes lessons in political campaigning, particularly for future presidential and vice-presidential candidates, not only with regard to the appropriate use of social media, but also in view of a clear understanding of the socio-demographic composition of the targeted audiences. iv Acknowledgments The author wishes to acknowledge her dissertation committee members Dr. Bernhard Debatin and Dr. Joseph Bernt of the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism, Dr. Duncan Brown of the School of Media Arts and Studies, and Dr. DeLysa Burnier of the Department of Political Science, at Ohio University.

Everywhere else biologists have studied life on our planet, they’ve found communities of life, but today, biologists announced they have discovered an ecosystem that contains just a single species of bacteria. www.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/10/one-organism-ec/ 1/32 3/19/14 One-Organism Ecosystem Discovered in African Gold Mine - Wired Science In all other known ecosystems, the key functions of life — harvesting energy and elements like carbon and nitrogen from the environment — have been shared among different species. But in the water of the Mponeng gold mine, two miles under the earth’s surface, Desulforudis audaxviator carries out all of those functions by itself. In short, it’s the tidiest package of life found yet. "It is possible to pack everything necessary for maintaining life into one genome," said Dylan Chivian of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. All known life forms need carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and an energy source to live. Plants need nitrogen, but can’t just pull it from the atmosphere and start using it to make amino acids. Instead, they rely on archaea for that task. Interconnections like these form the basis of an ecosystem, often cheesily called the ‘web of life’.

Almost every day, they see the president on television newscasts interpreting current events, meeting with foreign dignitaries, proposing policy, or grappling with national problems. This person appears to be in charge, and such recurrent images of an engaged leader are reassuring. But the reality of the presidency rests on a very different truth: presidents are seldom in command and usually must negotiate with others to achieve their goals….Those who invented the presidency in 1787 did not expect the office to become the nation’s central political institution…Students of the presidency commonly divide the office’s developments into two major periods: traditional and modern. In the traditional era, presidential power was relatively limited, and Congress was the primary policymaker. The modern era, on the other hand, is typified by the presidential dominance in the policymaking process and a significant expansion of the president’s powers and resources.” Joseph A. Pika Anthony Maltese Co-Authors, “The Politics of the Presidency” When the Framers sat down in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787 to draft the Constitution, they had little idea of how they were going to design the office of the presidency.

They made it clear that they possessed certain magical secrets of their profession, but they mentioned them evasively. Now and then they made lofty artistic pronouncements, but they showed a more sincere interest in anecdotes about scenarios that were written on a cuff during a gay supper.... This might well be a description of Hollywood during any period of its cultivated silence on the matter of film-making. Actually, it is Leningrad in 1924, described by Grigori Kozintsev in his memoirs.1 It is so seldom that we are allowed to study the disclosures of a Hollywood film-maker about his medium that I cannot recall the last instance that preceded John Howard Lawson's book. There is no dearth of books about Hollywood, but when did any other book come from there that takes such articulate pride in the art that is-or was-made there? I have never understood exactly why the makers of American films felt it necessary to hide their methods and aims under blankets of coyness and anecdotes, the one as impenetrable as the other.

    Human Trafficking 101: A Conversation with Mrs. Cindy McCain and Ernie Allen [applause] Claire Sechler Merkel: Thank you, Paris. Welcome, everyone. I am Claire Merkel. I am the Director of Arizona Initiatives for the McCain Institute. I am just delighted to welcome each of you here tonight for the first in what we hope to be a seven or eight-piece series on human trafficking. You can see the titles we have up on the billboards here. We're excited to get started this evening with Ernie Allen. Before we get started, I get to have just a couple of minutes to tell you about some of the exciting things that are going on in human trafficking, here in Arizona, with Mrs. McCain and the Institute. First of all, I get to announce that we have a new partnership with ASU and Demand Abolition, which is an organization that is run by former ambassador Swanee Hunt. The program will look at demand in Arizona and first do a baseline study. After that, the goal is to reduce demand in Arizona by 20 percent in two years, which I think is a very laudable goal. We are lucky enough... [applause] Claire: Yay. [claps] You can clap. Lucky enough to have our project coordinator, Angie Bayless, with us tonight. If you all have questions about that, please see her. In addition, Lindsay and I just came from a meeting with the Department of Homeland Security Blue Campaign, which is something that the Arizona Governor's Human Trafficking Council is partnering with. I learned a fact there today that I didn't know, and it was exciting.

Chimps, Obama and Racial Stereotype We are decidedly not in a ‘post-racial’ America, whatever that may look like; indeed, many have been made more uneasy by the election of a black president and the accompanying euphoria, evoking a concomitant racial backlash in the form of allegedly satirical visual imagery. Such imagery attempts to dispel anxieties about race and ‘blackness’ by reifying the old racial stereotypes that suggest African Americans are really culturally and intellectually inferior and therefore not to be feared, that the threat of blackness can be neutralized or subverted through caricature and mockery. When the perpetrators and promulgators of such imagery are caught in the light of national media and accused of racial bias, whether blatant or implied, they always resort to the same ideological escape hatch: it was only ‘a joke’.

  • The Digital Revolution: How the Demcrotatic Party Has Leveraged Email and Online
    The Digital Revolution: How The Demcrotatic Party has Leveraged Email and Online Fundraising to Target Grassroots Donors By Rachel McCoy Today, getting emails from politicians asking for money is as ubiquitous as getting sales fliers for Macy’s in the mail. But what might feel like just another random email cluttering your inbox is actually the product of over a decade of development, testing, and strategy adjustments. The art of the perfect fundraising email is today as much science as it is art. There is strategy behind every decision from the subject line to the formatting to the sender. Even the time of day it is sent can be a strategic decision. And it’s all in the pursuit of bringing in more money. In this paper, I will begin with a brief history of the Democratic Party’s use of email and online fundraising, as well as address several of the strategies used for email fundraising. This research was conducted through hands on experience on political campaigns, interviews with campaign professionals, and the reading of academic and news sources related to email and online fundraising. My goal with the project was to understand how the Democratic Party’s email program has been successful in targeting grassroots donors in the past and present and how it could continue that success in the future. Part 1: The History and Evolution of Political Online Fundraising in the Democratic Party While the internet had been a part of political campaigns for a few cycles before 2004, it was Howard Dean’s campaign for the Democratic Party’s nomination for the presidency that 2 brought to light the organizational and fundraising potential of the internet for campaign.
