First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC$13.16 DESCRIPTORS *Ecology; Environmental Criteria; *Environmental Education; Environmental Research; *Information Dissemination; *Mass Media; *News Media; Newspapers; Radio; Social Responsibility; Television IDENTIFIERS *San Francisco Bay Area ABSTRACT In an interdisciplinary study the role of the news media in environmental problems is examined. A description of the environmental problems of the San Francisco Bay Area and of the many news media which serve this area introduces this second volume of the study. The dimensions of the information explosion in the Bay Area news media are documented in quantitative terms. The study identifies the groups in the Bay Area which can be expected to use the information offered by the news media and the implications of this for the press. The difficulties for the press in reporting environmental deterioration and the damage caused by "environmental" advertising are pointed out. The study also examined: the difficulties of gaining access to information about the plans of public utilities; the interrelationship of a growing community and its newspapers and the possible effects of newspaper coverage of urban land use patterns; and the possibilities of getting along without the news media and becoming informed on one's own. The study concludes that the media have alerted the public to environmental hazards, but that continued efforts topinpointlocal problems will be necessary.

Could hackers develop a Roundup-resistant milkweed and preserve the monarch larvae’s sole habitat? Let me explain.

  • An Investigation of Urban Artists’ Mobilizing Power in Oaxaca and Mexico City
    THE UNOFFICIAL STORY AND THE PEOPLE WHO PAINT IT: AN INVESTIGATION OF URBAN ARTISTS’ MOBILIZING POWER IN OAXACA AND MEXICO CITY by KENDRA SIEBERT A THESIS Presented to the Department of Journalism and Communication and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2019 An Abstract of the Thesis of Kendra Siebert for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Journalism and Communication to be taken June 2019 Title: The Unofficial Story and the People Who Paint It: An Investigation of Urban Artists’ Mobilizing Power in Oaxaca and Mexico City Approved: _______________________________________ Peter Laufer Although parietal writing – the act of writing on walls – has existed for thousands of years, its contemporary archetype, urban art, emerged much more recently. An umbrella term for the many kinds of art that occupy public spaces, urban art can be accessed by whoever chooses to look at it, and has roots in the Mexican muralism movement that began in Mexico City and spread to other states like Oaxaca. After the end of the military phase of the Mexican Revolution in the 1920s, philosopher, writer and politician José Vasconcelos was appointed to the head of the Mexican Secretariat of Public Education. There, he found himself leading what he perceived to be a disconnected nation, and believed visual arts would be the means through which to unify it. In 1921, Vasconcelos proposed the implementation of a government-funded mural program with the intent of celebrating Mexico and the diverse identities that comprised it.
