  • Rebuilding Iraqi Television: a Personal Account
    Rebuilding Iraqi Television: A Personal Account By Gordon Robison Senior Fellow USC Annenberg School of Communication October, 2004 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 Rebuilding Iraqi Television: A Personal Account By Gordon Robison Senior Fellow, USC Annenberg School of Communication October 27, 2003 was the first day of Ramadan. It was also my first day at a new job as a contractor with the Coalition Provisional Authority, the American-led administration in Occupied Iraq. I had been hired to oversee the news department at Iraqi television. I had been at the station barely an hour when news of a major attack broke: at 8:30am a car bomb had leveled the Red Cross headquarters. The blast was enormous, and was heard across half the city. When the pictures began to come in soon afterwards they were horrific. The death toll began to mount. Then came word of more explosions: car bombs destroying three Iraqi police stations. A fourth police station was targeted but the bomber was intercepted in route. At times like this the atmosphere in the newsroom at CNN, the BBC or even a local television station is focused, if somewhat chaotic. Most news operations have a plan for dealing with big, breaking stories. Things in the newsroom move quickly, and they can get very stressful, but things do happen. Also, this was hardly the first time an atrocity like this had taken place.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

  • Clinton Early Favorite in 2016 Nh Presidential Primary, No Gop Frontrunner
    THE WMUR GRANITE STATE POLL THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE February 14, 2013 CLINTON EARLY FAVORITE IN 2016 NH PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY, NO GOP FRONTRUNNER By: Andrew E. Smith, Ph.D. UNH Survey Center 603-862-2226 www.unh.edu/survey-center DURHAM, NH – Hillary Clinton is the heavy favorite among New Hampshire Democrats for the 2016 New Hampshire Primary. There is no clear frontrunner among Republicans. These findings are based on the latest WMUR Granite State Poll ,∗ conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. Five hundred and eighty-one (581) randomly selected New Hampshire adults were interviewed by landline and cellular telephone between January 30 and February 5, 2013. Included in the sample were 212 likely 2016 Republican Primary voters (margin of sampling error +/- 7%) and 201 likely 2016 Democratic Primary voters (margin of sampling error +/- 7%). Three Years Until NH First in the Nation Primary Although it is three years before the First in the Nation New Hampshire Presidential Primary, prospective Republican and Democratic candidates have already been testing the waters here for presidential runs in 2016. While many of the candidates tested will decide not to run, and others may enter who are not tested, candidates who are the early identified frontrunners have typically won past New Hampshire primaries. Very few voters have made up their minds about who they will support in 2016. The great majority of prospective primary voters, 82% of Democrats and 88% of Republicans, say they are still trying to decide who to support. Democratic Primary Despite the primary being 3 years from now, former Secretary of State and 2008 NH Democratic Primary winner Hillary Clinton is the clear current favorite among Democratic voters.

  • In the Shadow of General Marshall-Old Soldiers in The
    In The Shadow of General Marshall: Old Soldiers in the Executive Branch Ryan Edward Guiberson Anaconda, Montana Bachelor of Science, United States Air Force Academy, 1992 Master of Arts-Political Science, University of Florida, 1994 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Politics University of Virginia August, 2013 2 Abstract: The usurpation of political authority by tyrannical military figures is a theme that pervades the history of politics. The United States has avoided such an occurrence and the prospect of a military coup d’etat rarely registers as a realistic concern in American politics. Despite the unlikelihood of this classic form of military usurpation, other more insidious forms lurk and must be guarded against to protect civilian control of the military. One potential manifestation has been referred to as a military colonization of the executive branch. This form implies that retired senior military officers increasingly pursue executive branch positions and unduly promote the interests of the active duty military, its leaders, and military solutions to national security issues. This work addresses military colonization claims by examining the number of retired senior military officers that have served in executive branch positions, trends in where they participate, and their political behavior in these positions. It also uses interviews with retired senior military officers to gain their perspectives on the incentives and disincentives of executive branch service. The study concludes that in the post-Cold War period, participation rates of retired senior military officers in key executive branch positions do not diverge significantly from broader post-World War II patterns.
