JOSH: Semper fi! HRISHI: ...this is The West Wing Weekly. I am Hrishikesh Hirway. JOSH: And I am Joshua Malina. And this is the latest I have ever been awake. [Audience laughter] HRISHI: Thank you all for coming. Thanks so much for being here past your bedtime. JOSH: Late Show! HRISHI: Thanks so much to everyone from SketchFest for inviting us back. We have an exciting show for you--today we're talking about Episode 6:07 it's called “A Change Is Gonna Come.” JOSH: The teleplay by John Sacret Young and Josh Singer. It was directed by Vincent Misiano and it first aired on December 1, 2004--my 8th wedding anniversary. HRISHI: Whoo Hoo. [audience claps] JOSH: YEAH!! HRISHI: Here is a little bit about what happens in this episode: President Bartlet is supposed to go to China for a summit, a huge diplomatic mission. And Josh has been organizing it, but the whole thing threatens to unravel when the president accepts a flag of the Taiwanese Independence movement. Meanwhile, the primaries haven’t started yet, but the battle for the nomination definitely has. Hoynes returns with his book Full Disclosure, plus Vice President Russell squares off with the person widely seen as the favorite: Governor Baker of Pennsylvania. JOSH: That...is not the episode I watched… [Audience laughter] JOSH: But we’re here, so let’s do it.

  • The West Wing and the Cultivation of a Unilateral American Responsibility to Protect
    ARTICLES PRIME-TIME SAVIORS: THE WEST WING AND THE CULTIVATION OF A UNILATERAL AMERICAN RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT AMAR KHODAY ABSTRACT Television programs and films are powerful visual mediums that inject various interpretations about law into the public stream of consciousness and can help shape public perception on various issues. This Article argues that the popular television series The West Wing (“TWW”) cultivated the notion of a unilateral American legal obligation to intervene and protect vulnerable populations from genocide in the context of a fictional African state by mimicking some of the factual circumstances that transpired during the Rwandan genocide. In creating an idealized vision of an American response to such humanitarian crises, the show effectively attempted to re- imagine Rwanda as a beneficiary of United States military force. This Article argues that in advancing a radical vision of unilateral humanitarian military interventions, TWW questionably propagated metaphors and caricatures that persist in human rights discourse as criticized by Makau Mutua—namely that Western states must act as saviors rescuing vulnerable and victimized third world populations from malevolent third world dictatorships. Furthermore, such caricatures deny non-Western populations a certain subjectivity and foster the idea that Western states must always come to the rescue. In addition, these caricatures paint the international community and fellow Western states like France as unwilling or unable to respond to such crises. Lastly, this Article

  • Debating Early Child Care
    Debating Early Child Care Rob Crosnoe, University of Texas Tama Leventhal, Tufts University Population Research Center Ryan: A major study Wendt commissioned of 1,364 children showed a clear link between parents’ dumping their kids in day care and an increase in hyperactivity, lack of discipline, and violent behavior. Will: Can I see that? Josh: You’re saying Jeffrey Dahmer’s only problem was day care? Ryan: We’re always harping about the root causes of crime and violence. Josh: I work for the federal government. I’ve never heard of Wendt’s so-called “major federal study.” Will: Maybe that’s because all TV news programs are produced by mothers who dump their kids in day care.

  • “Memorial Day” Guest: Josh Singer [Intro Music] HRISHI: You're Listening to the West Wing Weekly
    The West Wing Weekly 5.22: “Memorial Day” Guest: Josh Singer [Intro Music] HRISHI: You're listening to The West Wing Weekly. I’m Hrishikesh Hirway. JOSH: And I'm Joshua Malina. HRISHI: And today we're talking about the season finale of season five. It's called Memorial Day. JOSH: It was written by John Sacret Young and Josh Singer. It was directed by Christopher Misiano and it first aired on May 19th in the year 2004. HRISHI: Here's a little synopsis: “Memorial Day” is the season finale, and in it, President Bartlet wrestles with what to do in response to the killing of American officials in Gaza. But even as he weighs the options, the situation keeps escalating, with Israel and Palestine attacking each other in retaliation and counter-retaliation. Meanwhile, Josh finds himself being used as a proxy for back channels with the Palestinian Prime Minister, and Charlie and Toby try to ready the President for throwing out the first pitch at an Orioles game in Camden Yards. Coming up later, we're gonna talk with one of the writers of this episode, Josh Singer. He's an Oscar winner for the film Spotlight, which he co-wrote. He also co-wrote The Post, and he wrote the new film First Man. JOSH: How about that? That's a good get. HRISHI: Yep. But first, let's talk about this episode a little bit. Josh what did you think? JOSH: I liked this episode. I thought a good continuation of the last and a good end of the season.

  • “An Khe” [Intro Music] HRISHI: You're Listening to the West Wing Weekly. I'm Hrishikesh Hirwa
    The West Wing Weekly 5.14: “An Khe” [Intro Music] HRISHI: You’re listening to The West Wing Weekly. I’m Hrishikesh Hirway. JOSH: And I’m Joshua Malina. HRISHI: And today we’re talking about An Khe. It’s episode 14 of the 5th season. JOSH: It was written by John Wells, directed by Alex Graves, and it first aired on the 18th day of the 2nd month in the year 2004. HRISHI: The NBC official synopsis and the TV Guide synopsis - both of them are wrong, I think. The TV Guide one begins - “A navy fighter collides with a North Korean jet, and the US crew is missing.” The Warner Brothers official synopsis says, “When five crew members of an Airborne Thunderchief are shot down by North Korean jets near the hostile country, President Bartlet dispatches a Navy Seal team to retrieve them.” But in both cases, that’s not the case. JOSH: Well, you know, it speaks to something that did pique my interest, which is why and how do the crew go down? HRISHI: Yeah. JOSH: Cuz the only mention that I’m aware of in the Sit Room, is that a MiG, a Korean MiG, was off their wing, as close as 10 feet. HRISHI: Here’s what General Alexander says: [West Wing Episode 5.14 excerpt] GENERAL ALEXANDER: An E2C Hawkeye was being harassed by two North Korean MiGs over the Sea of Japan. The MiGs have made two non-firing passes, one less than 10 feet off his wing. [end excerpt] JOSH: And then there’s no actual direct indication of what forced them either to eject or why they went down, and it seems clear that the people in the Sit Room are concerned about North Korea becoming aware of these downed fighters so clearly, they didn’t shoot them down.

    國立臺灣師範大學英語學系 碩 士 論 文 Master’s Thesis Department of English National Taiwan Normal University 美國影集的字彙涵蓋量 語料庫分析 The Vocabulary Coverage in American Television Programs A Corpus-Based Study 指導教授：陳 浩 然 Advisor: Dr. Hao-Jan Chen 研 究 生：周 揚 亭 Yang-Ting Chou 中 華 民 國一百零三年七月 July, 2014 國 立 英 臺 語 灣 師 學 範 系 大 學 103 碩 士 論 文 美 國 影 集 的 字 彙 涵 蓋 量 語 料 庫 分 析 周 揚 亭 中文摘要 身在英語被視為外國語文的環境中，英語學習者很難擁有豐富的目標語言環 境。電視影集因結合語言閱讀與聽力，對英語學習者來說是一種充滿動機的學習 資源，然而少有研究將電視影集視為道地的語言學習教材。許多研究指出媒體素 材有很大的潛力能激發字彙學習，研究者很好奇學習者要學習多少字彙量才能理 解電視影集的內容。 本研究探討理解道地的美國電視影集需要多少字彙涵蓋量 (vocabulary coverage)。研究主要目的為：(1)探討為理解 95%和 98%的美國影集，分別需要 英國國家語料庫彙編而成的字族表(the BNC word lists)和匯編英國國家語料庫 (BNC)與美國當代英語語料庫(COCA)的字族表多少的字彙量；(2)探討為理解 95%和 98%的美國影集，不同的電視影集類型需要的字彙量；(3)分析出現在美國 影集卻未列在字族表的字彙，並比較兩個字族表(the BNC word lists and the BNC/COCA word lists)的異同。 研究者蒐集六十部美國影集，包含 7,279 集，31,323,019 字，並運用 Range 分析理解美國影集需要分別兩個字族表的字彙量。透過語料庫的分析，本研究進 一步比較兩個字族表在美國影集字彙涵蓋量的異同。 研究結果顯示，加上專有名詞(proper nouns)和邊際詞彙(marginal words)，英 國國家語料庫字族表需 2,000 至 7,000 字族(word family)，以達到 95%的字彙涵 蓋量；至於英國國家語料庫加上美國當代英語語料庫則需 2,000 至 6,000 字族。 i 若須達到 98%的字彙涵蓋量，兩個字族表都需要 5,000 以上的字族。 第二，有研究表示，適當的文本理解需要 95%的字彙涵蓋量 (Laufer, 1989; Rodgers & Webb, 2011; Webb, 2010a, 2010b, 2010c; Webb & Rodgers, 2010a, 2010b)，為達 95%的字彙涵蓋量，本研究指出連續劇情類(serial drama)和連續超 自然劇情類(serial supernatural drama)需要的字彙量最少；程序類(procedurals)和連 續醫學劇情類(serial medical drama)最具有挑戰性，因為所需的字彙量最多；而情 境喜劇(sitcoms)所需的字彙量差異最大。 第三，美國影集內出現卻未列在字族表的字會大致上可分為四種：(1)專有 名詞；(2)邊際詞彙；(3)顯而易見的混合字(compounds)；(4)縮寫。這兩個字族表 基本上包含完整的字彙，但是本研究顯示語言字彙不斷的更新，新的造字像是臉 書(Facebook)並沒有被列在字族表。 本研究也整理出兩個字族表在美國影集字彙涵蓋量的異同。為達 95%字彙涵 蓋量，英國國家語料庫的 4,000 字族加上專有名詞和邊際詞彙的知識才足夠；而 英國國家語料庫合併美國當代英語語料庫加上專有名詞和邊際詞彙的知識只需 3,000 字族即可達到 95%字彙涵蓋量。另外，為達 98%字彙涵蓋量，兩個語料庫 合併的字族表加上專有名詞和邊際詞彙的知識需要 10,000 字族；英國國家語料 庫字族表則無法提供足以理解 98%美國影集的字彙量。 本研究結果顯示，為了能夠適當的理解美國影集內容，3,000 字族加上專有 名詞和邊際詞彙的知識是必要的。字彙涵蓋量為理解美國影集的重要指標之一， ii 而且字彙涵蓋量能協助挑選適合學習者的教材，以達到更有效的電視影集語言教 學。 關鍵字：字彙涵蓋量、語料庫分析、第二語言字彙學習、美國電視影集 iii ABSTRACT In EFL context, learners of English are hardly exposed to ample language input.
