  • The Rest of Arab Television
    The Rest of Arab Television By Gordon Robison Senior Fellow USC Annenberg School of Communication June, 2005 A Project of the USC Center on Public Diplomacy Middle East Media Project USC Center on Public Diplomacy 3502 Watt Way, Suite 103 Los Angeles, CA 90089-0281 www.uscpublicdiplomacy.org USC Center on Public Diplomacy – Middle East Media Project The Rest of Arab Television By Gordon R. Robison Senior Fellow, USC Center on Public Diplomacy Director, Middle East Media Project The common U.S. image of Arab television – endless anti-American rants disguised as news, along with parades of dictators – is far from the truth. In fact, Arab viewers, just like viewers in the U.S., turn to television looking for entertainment first and foremost. (And just as in the U.S., religious TV is a big business throughout the region, particularly in the most populous Arab country, Egypt). Arabs and Americans watch many of the same programs – sometimes the American originals with sub-titles, but just as often “Arabized” versions of popular reality series and quiz shows. Although advertising rates are low, proper ratings scarce and the long-term future of many stations is open to question, in many respects the Arab TV landscape is a much more familiar place, and far less dogmatic overall, than most Americans imagine. * * * For an American viewer, Al-Lailah ma’ Moa’taz has a familiar feel: The opening titles dissolve into a broad overhead shot of the audience. The host strides on stage, waves to the bandleader, and launches into a monologue heavy on jokes about politicians and celebrities.

  • Body As Evidence
    Chapter 1 Pop Goes Democracy Mediating Race, Gender, and Nation on American Idol Parallels between presidential elections and the hit TV series are not hard to make. Indeed, they had become punch lines in comedyAmerican routines: Idol from Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert complaining that it took too long to determine the next American Idol (in a gag that had audiences assuming he was referring to the next U.S. president) to ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel quipping that, after watching the vice presidential debate during the U.S. presidential campaign in 2008, he “voted four times for Sarah Palin and six times for David Archuleta,” in reference to the popular Republican vice presidential candidate and frontrunner contestant that year. Interestingly, movie critic RogerAmerican Ebert Idol’s mounted criticism against Palin for being “the American Idol candidate,” in which he argued the following: I think I might be able to explain some of Sarah Palin’s appeal. She’s the “American Idol” candidate. Consider. What defines an “American Idol” finalist? They’re good‑looking, work well on television, have a sunny personality, are fierce competitors, and so talented, why, they’re darned near the real thing. There’s a reason “American Idol” gets such high ratings. People identify with the contestants. They think, Hey, that could be me up there on that show! . My problem is, I don’t want to be up there. I don’t want a vice president who is darned near good enough. I want a vice president who is better, wiser, well‑traveled, has met world leaders, who three months ago had an opinion on Iraq.

  • Influence of American Media Upon Korean Broadcasting Culture
    Running head: INFLUENCE OF AMERICAN REALITY SHOW TO KOREAN VIEWERS Influence of American media upon Korean broadcasting culture - Analyzing ‘American Idol’ vs. ‘SuperStar K II’ Han Na Shin Liberty University INFLUENCE OF AMERICAN REALITY SHOW TO KOREAN VIEWERS ii Abstract This study examines the influence of American media on Korean broadcasting culture, based on analysis of American Idol and SuperStar K Season II. Viewer ratings were analyzed to find out the popularity of American programs in South Korea. Web-based surveys and individual interviews were analyzed to figure out the difference between both programs and its influence upon Korean viewers. The result shows that American programs currently influence the Korean media and Korean viewers, and that influence is getting more produced. With those findings, the study concludes it affects Korean viewers and Korean society as well. Audition programs become one of the strongest trends in Korean society through SuperStar K Season II, and it gives hope to people who display a growing confidence in what they really want to do with their professional lives.

    The Promise of New Technologies in the Arab World By Gordon Robison Senior Fellow USC Annenberg School of Communication July, 2005 A Project of the USC Center on Public Diplomacy Middle East Media Project USC Center on Public Diplomacy 3502 Watt Way, Suite 103 Los Angeles, CA 90089-0281 www.uscpublicdiplomacy.org USC Center on Public Diplomacy – Middle East Media Project The Promise and Challenge of New Technologies in the Arab World By Gordon R. Robison Senior Fellow, USC Center on Public Diplomacy Director, Middle East Media Project Summary The technological landscape in the Arab world has changed radically in just a few years. Traditionalists, and some government leaders, see this as a threat; but there are others who view it as an opportunity. Militants and reformers alike, along with innovative projects like Ammannet, an Internet radio station in Jordan, are challenging traditional government control over the flow of information to the general public. Satellite and Internet technology has blurred the once clear lines regarding what the media could and could not cover. New technologies may aid the region's reformers, but the process still has a long way to go: On the whole, the Middle East remains one of the least "connected" regions on earth. * * * Google the words "Middle East blogs" and a mixed bag of results come up. There are the musings of respected regional experts such as Juan Cole (www.juancole.com), a history professor at the University of Michigan, and Joshua Landis, a professor of Middle East Studies on leave from the University of Oklahoma and now based in Damascus (www.SyriaComment.com).

  • Adapting Idols Joost De Bruin and Koos Zwaan
    Introduction: Adapting Idols Joost de Bruin and Koos Zwaan Idols is one of the most popular and successful global television formats produced in the last decade. The format has been adapted in over 40 territories all over the world, as the appendix – compiled by Sukhpreet Singh and Martin Kretschmer for this book – shows. The original show, Pop Idol, went to air in the UK in 2001. The next year, local versions of the show were broadcast in Poland, South Africa, the USA, Germany and the Netherlands. By the end of 2004 – exactly three years after the introduction of Pop Idol – 30 territories were screening their own Idols shows, illustrating the rapid global spread of the format. In some cases Idols was produced for transnational geographic regions, such as Asian Idol – with auditions in India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Vietnam – and the Pan-Arab Superstar, which featured contestants from Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Libya, Morocco and Algeria. The most recent branch on the global Idols tree at the time of writing is Idol Puerto Rico. The owners of the Idols format, FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment, have thus managed to capitalize on the work put into the design of the original UK show by turning it into a format and selling it to a range of territories. The goal of Idols shows is to involve a nation (or a region consisting of several different nations) in a quest for a popular music idol who can be admired by all. Idols shows are commonly divided into four distinct phases (Holmes 2004).

  • Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and the Changing Arab Information Order
    International Journal of Communication 1 (2007), 139-156 1932-8036/20070139 Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and the Changing Arab Information Order MARWAN M. KRAIDY American University This article explores the impact of Arab reality television on Arab governance. Reality television activates hypermedia space (Kraidy, 2006c), a broadly defined inter-media symbolic field, because its commercial logic promotes ostensibly participatory practices like voting, campaigning and alliance building via mobile telephones and the Internet. How does hypermedia space contribute to changing the ways in which Arab citizens and regimes access, use, create and control information? How do the new information dynamics affect the way citizens and governments relate to each other? To address these questions, this article focuses on recent social and political developments in Saudi Arabia and Lebanon, treating the two countries as a dynamic pair whose multi-faceted interactions shape a pan-Arab hypermedia space. This article will endeavor to explain how various Saudi and Lebanese actors have appropriated the reality TV show Star Academy for social and political purposes, and how increased public awareness of the hypermedia space engendered by the program has affected the nature of governance in the two countries. This article concludes with a discussion of how hypermedia space contributes to shifts in the nature and boundaries of social and political agency. When scholars and policy makers contemplate the Arab “media revolution,” they mostly think of Al-Jazeera and its news competitors. They are guided by the assumption that all-news satellite television networks are the predominant, even the single, shaper of the Arab public sphere, a perspective exacerbated by the September 11, 2001 attacks.

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.
