    UNIVERZITA KARLOVA V PRAZE FAKULTA SOCIÁLNÍCH VĚD Institut Komunikačních studií a žurnalistiky Kateřina Písačková Transformace mediálního impéria VICE v kontextu globálních změn mediálního prostředí Bakalářská práce Praha 2013 Autor práce: Kateřina Písačková Vedoucí práce: Doc. Filip Láb Ph.D. Datum obhajoby: 2013 Bibliografický záznam Písačková, Kateřina. Transformace mediálního impéria VICE v kontextu globálních změn mediálního prostředí. Praha, 2013. 97 s. Bakalářská práce (Bc.) Univerzita Karlova, Fakulta sociálních věd, Institut komunikačních studií a žurnalistiky. Katedra žurnalistiky. Vedoucí diplomové práce Doc. Filip Láb Ph.D. Abstrakt Tato bakalářská práce se zabývá postupnou transformací americké mediální společnosti VICE média z marginálního zájmového periodika ve významnou globální mediální korporaci. V rámci případové studie v práci popisuji, jak na sebe navazovali jednotlivé fáze této transformace a jak celková změna organizace společnosti ovlivňuje mediální obsah produkovaný touto společností . V práci se věnuji i novým marketingovým metodám, která společnost uplatňuje, především pak jejich provázanosti s tvorbou obsahu. Cílem práce je popsat mechanismy, které stojí za úspěšnou expanzí značky VICE média. Jelikož tato transformace nemohla proběhnout bez hlubší proměny globálního publika, na které společnost cílí a jímž je současná mladá generace, věnuji se i popisu fenoménů tzv. Generace X a následné Generace Y. Tato transformace se děje na pozadí hlubších proměn globálního mediálního prostředí, které pozorujeme od nástupu internetu, práce se tedy věnuje i tomuto významnému fenoménu. V závěru práce popisuji fungování české pobočky tohoto média. Abstract The thesis deals with the gradual transformation of the American media company VICE media, originally a magazine of marginal interest, into a major global media corporation. The case study describes sequentially each stage of such transformation and describes how the overall change in the companyʼs organization influences the media content produced by the company.
