A cultural audit is a method of gaining a deeper understanding of priority audiences by understanding the pop culture narratives they consume. The project has two overarching goals. The first is to provide evidence-based insights to the foundation’s Voices for Economic Opportunity grantee cohort, a group of organizations who are designing new narratives of poverty to correct misconceptions and address systemic barriers to mobility. The second is to establish a baseline of existing narratives for longitudinal tracking by Harmony Labs, another foundation grantee. The formative research summarized in this report examines how poverty and wealth are constructed in the pop culture narratives in which media consumers are immersed — specifically scripted TV and film, popular music, and top-selling video games.1 In later stages, the Lear Center will expand this analysis to TV news and unscripted content.

2020 Latin American and Latinx Studies Symposium Panels Panel
1 2020 Latin American and Latinx Studies Symposium Panels Panel: Environment and Culture in Latin America ° Religión y Naturaleza: la Creación del ambiente en la película La Luz Silenciosa, Mariana Gutierrez Suarez, Southwestern University** La creación audiovisual del ambiente y el desarrollo de la historia se manifiestan en la utilización de dos componentes importantes: la naturaleza y la religión. La religión forma la parte social de los personajes mientras que la naturaleza expresa sus emociones individuales. A través del paisaje natural que cambia con las estaciones del año al igual que cambian los protagonistas, los preceptos de la religión, en cambio, se manifiestan rígidos y difíciles de concordar con las acciones humanas. Este contraste nos muestra la importancia de reconocer la organicidad de la naturaleza con el hombre, y de seguir las leyes de conducta y convivencia en nuestros conflictos con nosotros mismos y con los demás, y las maneras de solucionarlos. ° A Threat to Brazilian Biodiversity and Climate Change: The Soy Industry, Beatriz Olivieri, Rollins College My presentation discusses the current environmental dilemma Brazil is facing. The desire to pursue significant economic development leads the Brazilian government to make poor decisions regarding the environment. The ongoing deforestation in Brazil related to the growth of soybeans is responsible for affecting important and unique native biomes along with causing the displacement of indigenous people -who are important actors in the protection of the environment-. In the last two decades, the soy expansion in Brazil was equivalent to an area five times the size of Switzerland. With the ArcGIS mapping tool, I was able to show the conflict between land being used for soy production that initially belonged to indigenous groups.

Los Bridgerton, La Serie Más Vista De Toda La Historia De Netflix
Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Los Bridgerton tendrá segunda temporada. Autor: Fotograma de la película Publicado: 28/01/2021 | 11:16 am Los Bridgerton, la serie más vista de toda la historia de Netflix La plataforma digital asegura que, según sus estadísticas, 82 millones de cuentas las visto a 28 días de su estreno, superando a otros fenómenos de popularidad del servicio «streaming» como The Witcher, Lupin, Gambito de Dama o incluso Stranger Things Publicado: Jueves 28 enero 2021 | 11:23:36 am. Publicado por: Juventud Rebelde Netflix aseguró este miércoles en un comunicado de prensa que Los Bridgerton, el último éxito televisivo de Shonda Rhimes, ha sido visto por 82 millones de cuenta en sus primeros 28 días tras su fantástico estreno en las Navidades, lo que la posiciona como la serie más vista en la historia del gigante digital. En el caso de los datos de audiencia de Netflix es recomendable andar con pies de plomo, ya que el método que usa la plataforma para definir un visionado resulta muy controvertido: basta con que un usuario vea un contenido concreto durante dos minutos para que se contabilice, advierte la agencia Efe, aunque reconoce que, por muy dudoso que sea la manera de Netflix a la hora de presentar sus éxitos, Los Bridgerton se ha situado por encima de otros fenómenos como del servicio de «streaming» como The Witcher, Lupin, Gambito de Dama o incluso Stranger Things. La semana pasada, Netflix confirmó que habrá una segunda temporada de Los Bridgerton por medio de la misteriosa narradora de la serie, Lady Whistledown.

By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

The Unforgiven Ones
The Unforgiven Ones 1 God These are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). 2 Esau took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, 3 and Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth. 4 And Adah bore to Esau, Eliphaz; Basemath bore Reuel; 5 and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan. 6 Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his livestock, all his beasts, and all his property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan. He went into a land away from his brother Jacob. 7 For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together. The land of their sojournings could not support them because of their livestock. 8 So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir. (Esau is Edom.) 9 These are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir. 10 These are the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Basemath the wife of Esau. 11 The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12 (Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz, Esau's son; she bore Amalek to Eliphaz.) These are the sons of Adah, Esau's wife. 13 These are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah.

They are all my favorites hehehe I've been watching korean dramas for 5years now and I can't even count how many I've seen already. It's funny. It was hilarious because Nick Twisp, the narrator and protagonist, was saying all of the perverted, hyper-sexual things I was thinking at the time, but knew I could not say publicly. The chemistry between the two is explosive and they're just one of those couples who you hope will end up together for real! The Heirs aka The Inheritors. Anonymous November 20, at AM.

Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network
Syracuse University SURFACE Dissertations - ALL SURFACE May 2016 Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network Laura Osur Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/etd Part of the Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons Recommended Citation Osur, Laura, "Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network" (2016).

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

All of the television programming analyzed by the PTC for those research reports was rated as appropriate for children aged 14, or even younger. Today, with much of the nation ostensibly on lockdown as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, children are at home instead of at school; and as a result, they have far greater access to entertainment media. While all forms of media consumption are up, the volume of entertainment programming being consumed through over-the-top streaming platforms has spiked dramatically.
