  • 12Th National A&E Journalism Awards
    Ben Mankiewicz Tarana Burke Danny Trejo Quentin Tarantino The Luminary The Impact Award The Visionary The Distinguished Award Award Storyteller Award 2019 TWELFTH ANNUAL Ann-Margret The Legend Award NATIONAL ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT JOURNALISM AWARDS LOS ANGELES PRESS CLUB 12TH ANNUAL National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards A Letter From the Press Club President Good evening and welcome to the 12th annual National Arts & Entertain- ment Journalism Awards. Think about how much the entertainment industry has changed since the Press Club introduced these awards in 2008. Arnold Schwarzenegger was our governor, not a Terminator. Netflix sent you DVDs in the mail. The iPhone was one year old. Fast forward to today and the explosion of technology and content that is changing our lives and keeping journalists busy across the globe. Entertainment journalism has changed as well, with all of us taking a much harder look at how societal issues influence Hollywood, from workplace equality and diversity to coverage of political events, the impact of social media and U.S.-China rela- tions. Your Press Club has thrived amid all this. Participation is way up, with more Chris Palmeri than 600 dues-paying members. The National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards have grown and changed as well. Tonight we’re in a ballroom in the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, but in 2008 the awards took place in the Steve Allen Theater, the Press Club’s old home in East Hollywood. That building has since been torn down. Our first event in 2008 featured a cocktail party with no host and only 111 entries in the competition.

  • Identity Fonnation: Women's Magazine Language
    Identity Fonnation: Women's Magazine Language An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) by Sarah L. Engler Thesis Advisor Dr. Mary Theresa Seig Ball State University Muncie, Indiana June 2003 July 19, 2003 1-" .:.. ABSTRACT This linguistic analysis of women's magazines begins with an introduction to sociolinguists' research on identity formation. Following the introduction is a basic study of two women's magazines, SELF and Cosmopolitan, examining how the magazines' linguistic features shape and identify the female reader. Covered next are the methods and results of sociolinguists' studies of magazine language. The methods used in these sociolinguists' research are then applied to the analysis of four women's magazines, Elle, Glamour, Ms., and The Oprah Magazine. The remainder of the analysis examines the linguistic features of the magazines' covers and article text. Following a detailed analysis of these components, conclusions are drawn about how each magazine defines the female reader, noting similarities and differences among the four. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Dr. Mary Theresa Seig, my thesis advisor, for inspiring me to pursue my interest in sociolinguistics as it relates to women. She played a vital role in the creation of my thesis, providing critical resources and encouragement throughout the process. Thank you Dr. Seig for your gracious patience. I am ineffably grateful to my dear friend and fellow English scholar, Julie Rinker, for her support and judicious commentary. Thank you Julie for your extraordinary companionship and interest in my life. Identity Formation I INTRODUCTION AND REV!EW OF LITERATURE Identity and Magazine Discourse Sociolinguistics Culpeper (200]) states, "In sociolinguistics, identity is most freqnently understood to be the way in which people identify themselves with social groups, categories, or stereotypes" (p.

Brooklyn, NY/Jan 10, 2014—From Friday, February 7 through Tuesday, February 18, BAMcinématek presents Vengeance is Hers. From screwball proto-feminism to witchy gothic horror to cerebral auteurist classics, this 20-film series gathers some of cinema’s most unforgettable heroines and anti-heroines as they seize control and take no prisoners. Seen through the eyes of some of the world’s greatest directors, including female filmmakers such as Chantal Akerman and Kathryn Bigelow, these films explore the full gamut of cinematic retribution in all its thrilling, unnerving dimensions. Vengeance is Hers is curated by Nellie Killian of BAMcinématek and Thomas Beard of Light Industry.
