The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. 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.

Asian American Political Elites' Failed Assimilationist Strategy*

INTRODUCTION On November 8, 2006, the day after the midterm Congressional elections, the 2008 presidential campaign season officially began.

Embedded Reporters: What Are Americans Getting?
Embedded Reporters: What Are Americans Getting? For More Information Contact: Tom Rosenstiel, Director, Project for Excellence in Journalism Amy Mitchell, Associate Director Matt Carlson, Wally Dean, Dante Chinni, Atiba Pertilla, Research Nancy Anderson, Tom Avila, Staff Embedded Reporters: What Are Americans Getting? Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has suggested we are getting only “slices” of the war. Other observers have likened the media coverage to seeing the battlefield through “a soda straw.” The battle for Iraq is war as we’ve never it seen before. It is the first full-scale American military engagement in the age of the Internet, multiple cable channels and a mixed media culture that has stretched the definition of journalism. The most noted characteristic of the media coverage so far, however, is the new system of “embedding” some 600 journalists with American and British troops. What are Americans getting on television from this “embedded” reporting? How close to the action are the “embeds” getting? Who are they talking to? What are they talking about? To provide some framework for the discussion, the Project for Excellence in Journalism conducted a content analysis of the embedded reports on television during three of the first six days of the war. The Project is affiliated with Columbia University and funded by the Pew Charitable Trusts. The embedded coverage, the research found, is largely anecdotal. It’s both exciting and dull, combat focused, and mostly live and unedited. Much of it lacks context but it is usually rich in detail. It has all the virtues and vices of reporting only what you can see.

By the end of 1987, Our Common Future, the report of the World Commission on Environment and Development (better known as the Brundtland Report) created a dialogue of sustainable development.2 With the close of 1999, will the now reports of the President's Council on3 Sustainable Development build a framework for a new century? President Clinton realized that Americans embrace the Rachel Carson vision when he proclaimed in his first inaugural address, "Yes, you, my fellow Americans have forced the spring." 4 Perhaps with this vision and the Brundtland Report's "Call to Action"5 as a catalyst, J.D.

Who Watches the Watchmen? the Conflict Between National Security and Freedom of the Press
WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN WATCHES WHO WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN WATCHES WHO I see powerful echoes of what I personally experienced as Director of NSA and CIA. I only wish I had access to this fully developed intellectual framework and the courses of action it suggests while still in government. —General Michael V. Hayden (retired) Former Director of the CIA Director of the NSA e problem of secrecy is double edged and places key institutions and values of our democracy into collision. On the one hand, our country operates under a broad consensus that secrecy is antithetical to democratic rule and can encourage a variety of political deformations. But the obvious pitfalls are not the end of the story. A long list of abuses notwithstanding, secrecy, like openness, remains an essential prerequisite of self-governance. Ross’s study is a welcome and timely addition to the small body of literature examining this important subject. —Gabriel Schoenfeld Senior Fellow, Hudson Institute Author of Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule of Law (W.W. Norton, May 2010). ? ? The topic of unauthorized disclosures continues to receive significant attention at the highest levels of government. In his book, Mr. Ross does an excellent job identifying the categories of harm to the intelligence community associated NI PRESS ROSS GARY with these disclosures. A detailed framework for addressing the issue is also proposed. This book is a must read for those concerned about the implications of unauthorized disclosures to U.S. national security. —William A.

Abuse of Discretion and the Sliding Scale of Deference: Restoring
MILLER_PP_FINAL (DO NOT DELETE) 4/24/2018 9:21 AM Abuse of Discretion and the Sliding Scale of Deference: Restoring the Balance of Power Between Circuit Courts and District Courts for Rule 23 Class Certification Decisions in Oil and Gas Royalty Litigation David C. Miller* ABSTRACT: Certifying a class is the first and most important step in bringing a claim as a class action. For certain plaintiffs, especially those suing on the basis of a contract like royalty owners of oil and gas leases, the class action is the only practical means of bringing a claim against the oil and gas production companies. In the past few years, the Supreme Court has raised the standard for Rule 23 class certification requirements. Over the same timeframe, circuits like the Fifth Circuit have reversed numerous orders certifying classes. Royalty owners are especially susceptible to unfavorable review because a reviewing court can point to minute differences within leases as the reason why the class fails to satisfy Rule 23. Rather than focus on the requirements of Rule 23, this Note examines the relationship between the circuit and district courts and the standard of review that should govern the circuit courts’ review of a certification order. There is a consensus that the abuse-of-discretion standard applies to review of certification orders, but the ambiguous definition of abuse of discretion has allowed circuit courts free reign when reviewing classes. To maintain the class action as a managerial tool for the district court, this Note proposes two solutions. First, the Note explains that codifying the abuse-of-discretion standard in Rule 23 will prevent circuit courts from circumventing the standard and push circuit courts to treat abuse of discretion as an independent standard.

Lawsuit to Set the Record Straight, to Vindicate Its Rights, and to Recover Damages for the Devastating Economic Harm Done to Its Business
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE ) US DOMINION, INC., DOMINION ) VOTING SYSTEMS, INC., and ) DOMINION VOTING SYSTEMS ) CORPORATION, ) ) Plaintiffs, ) ) Case No. v. ) ) JURY TRIAL DEMANDED FOX NEWS NETWORK, LLC, ) ) Defendant. ) ) COMPLAINT 1. Fox, one of the most powerful media companies in the United States, gave life to a manufactured storyline about election fraud that cast a then-little- known voting machine company called Dominion as the villain. After the November 3, 2020 Presidential Election, viewers began fleeing Fox in favor of media outlets endorsing the lie that massive fraud caused President Trump to lose the election. They saw Fox as insufficiently supportive of President Trump, including because Fox was the first network to declare that President Trump lost Arizona. So Fox set out to lure viewers back—including President Trump himself— by intentionally and falsely blaming Dominion for President Trump’s loss by rigging the election. 1 2. Fox endorsed, repeated, and broadcast a series of verifiably false yet devastating lies about Dominion. These outlandish, defamatory, and far-fetched fictions included Fox falsely claiming that: (1) Dominion committed election fraud by rigging the 2020 Presidential Election; (2) Dominion’s software and algorithms manipulated vote counts in the 2020 Presidential Election; (3) Dominion is owned by a company founded in Venezuela to rig elections for the dictator Hugo Chávez; and (4) Dominion paid kickbacks to government officials who used its machines in the 2020 Presidential Election. 3. Fox recklessly disregarded the truth. Indeed, Fox knew these statements about Dominion were lies. Specifically, Fox knew the vote tallies from Dominion machines could easily be confirmed by independent audits and hand recounts of paper ballots, as has been done repeatedly since the election.

Napolitano Back at Fox, Standing by Claim That Got Him Suspended
Napolitano Back at Fox, Standing by Claim That Got Him Suspended Rhonda Adams, New York Entrepreneur For a week or so the media world was ablaze with a series of high-profile bumps and bruises among popular faces on TV news. Andrew Napolitano was dropped from Fox after he insisted on statements his own network said had no basis in fact. And Tomi Lahren was suspended from The Blaze for her comments about abortion. But the futures for these two popular personalities have diverged. Where, after the suspension, Lahren was reportedly fired, Napolitano was back on Fox after a week. And it looks like his seven-day vacation hasn’t pushed Andrew off message. Napolitano immediately doubled down on his assertions that President Obama worked with British intelligence officials to spy on then-candidate Donald Trump. The British intelligence agency in question called the assertions “utterly ridiculous,” and even Fox took its popular pundit to task. That was then. A week later, during his return interview, Fox News host Bill Hemmer didn’t take the opportunity to correct Napolitano to his face, simply letting his comments stand. This leads some people to wonder openly why Napolitano was benched then if the network doesn’t seem to want to challenge his statements now. That question, it seems, won’t be answered anytime soon. And that might be a problem, from a PR perspective. (Photo Source: Twitter) Fox News remains the go-to media source for the GOP and its voters. In today’s divided political environment, that’s not surprising … nor is it abnormal.

Remarks by Chris Wallace Accepting the Media Institute's 2018 Freedom of Speech Award October 24, 2018
Remarks by Chris Wallace Accepting The Media Institute’s 2018 Freedom of Speech Award October 24, 2018 First of all – I want to thank The Media Institute for this award and the important work you do. Your efforts these last 40 years to support free speech and a free press have never been more important. I want to thank my colleague Brit Hume for your kind introduction. Brit – you read it just the way I wrote it. We all know how evenings like this tend to go these days. The person getting the award tells you what a threat President Trump poses to a free press – how dangerous his comments are about – “fake news is the enemy of the American people.” And if the person getting the award is anywhere near the center – he also warns his colleagues to stay in their lane – and not get drawn into arguments with the President – not to become advocates. I know – because I have given speeches like that. I will get there in a few minutes. But first – I want to talk about the good news – how fortunate those of us who work in this business are – in what we do for a living. I want to remind you why we got into journalism in the first place – the excitement of learning something important – and then getting the chance to share it with everyone else. My first job – if you can call it that – was in 1964 – at the Republican Convention in San Francisco. I was Walter Cronkite’s “go-fer” – go for coffee, go for pencils.

The national speech digest of Hillsdale College ImprimisAugust 2006 • Volume 35, Number 8 OVER 1,250,000 READERS MONTHLY Is the Mainstream Media Fair and Balanced? Fred Barnes Executive Editor, The Weekly Standard • • • • • • FRED BARNES is executive editor of The Weekly Standard.

The following is adapted from a speech delivered in Palm Beach, Florida, on February 22, 2006, at a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar on “The News Media in the Twenty-First Century.” et me begin by defining three terms that are thrown around in debates about the media today. The first is objectivity, which means reporting the news with none of your own political views L or instincts slanting the story one way or another. Perfect objectivity is pretty hard for anyone to attain, but it can be approximated. Then there’s fairness. Fairness concedes that there may be some slant in a news story, but requires that a reporter will be honest and not misleading with regard to those with whom he disagrees.
