    NEW MEDIA AND POLITICAL THREATS: STANDING WITH PLANNED PARENTHOOD John Remensperger A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved By: Daren C. Brabham Daniel Kreiss Frederic Stutzman © 2013 John Remensperger ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract JOHN REMENSPERGER: New Media and Political Threats: Standing with Planned Parenthood (Under the direction of Dr. Daren C. Brabham) Much of the scholarship on the media strategies of social movement organizations (SMOs) has focused on how these organizations frame issues. More recently, scholars have written about the strategies of digitally native, online advocacy organizations like MoveOn.org. There is a lack of research, however, on how long-standing organizations adapt to new media environments in response to political threats. Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s implementation of tactics like the “Planned Parenthood Truth Tour” and other strategies suggest that older SMOs are attempting, via new media, to take advantage of enthusiasm and interest from publics as they arise. This thesis reveals ways in which existing SMOs prep for and subsequently leverage moments of political contention. It also shows how a long-standing organization that advocates for abortion rights utilizes new media in its political strategy, thus extending previous literature on abortion politics and providing normative guidelines for practitioners involved in similar contentious moments. iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Daren Brabham, my committee chair, for his guidance, insights, and flexibility.

  • ROBERT WILSON / PHILIP GLASS LANDMARK EINSTEIN on the BEACH BEGINS YEARLONG INTERNATIONAL TOUR First Fully Staged Production in 20 Years of the Rarely Performed Work
    For Immediate Release March 13, 2012 ROBERT WILSON / PHILIP GLASS LANDMARK EINSTEIN ON THE BEACH BEGINS YEARLONG INTERNATIONAL TOUR First Fully Staged Production in 20 Years of the Rarely Performed Work Einstein on the Beach 2012-13 trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZ5hTfDzU9A&feature=player_embedded#! The Robert Wilson/Philip Glass collaboration Einstein on the Beach, An Opera in Four Acts is widely recognized as one of the greatest artistic achievements of the 20th century. Although every performance of the work has attracted a sold-out audience, and the music has been recorded and released, few people have actually experienced Einstein live. An entirely new generation—and numerous cities where the work has never been presented—will have the opportunity during the 2012-2013 international tour. The revival, helmed by Wilson and Glass along with choreographer Lucinda Childs, marks the first full production in 20 years. Aside from New York, Einstein on the Beach has never been seen in any of the cities currently on the tour, which comprises nine stops on four continents. • Opéra et Orchestre National de Montpellier Languedoc-Roussillon presents the world premiere at the Opera Berlioz Le Corum March 16—18, 2012. • Fondazione I TEATRI di Reggio Emilia in collaboration with Change Performing Arts will present performances on March 24 & 25 at Teatro Valli. • From May 4—13, 2012, the Barbican will present the first-ever UK performances of the work in conjunction with the Cultural Olympiad and London 2012 Festival. • The North American premiere, June 8—10, 2012 at the Sony Centre for the Performing Arts, as part of the Luminato, Toronto Festival of Arts and Creativity, represents the first presentation in Canada.

Zone Eleven is a metaphor coined by artist Mike Mandel in his challenge to create a book of Adams’ photographs outside of the bounds of his personal work. Many of these photographs were found in the archives of his commercial and editorial assignments, and from his experimentation with the new Polaroid material of the times.
