  • It Reveals Who I Really Am”: New Metaphors, Symbols, and Motifs in Representations of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Popular Culture
    “IT REVEALS WHO I REALLY AM”: NEW METAPHORS, SYMBOLS, AND MOTIFS IN REPRESENTATIONS OF AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS IN POPULAR CULTURE By Summer Joy O’Neal A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Middle Tennessee State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Angela Hague, Chair Dr. David Lavery Dr. Robert Petersen Copyright © 2013 Summer Joy O’Neal ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There simply is not enough thanks to thank my family, my faithful parents, T. Brian and Pamela O’Neal, and my understanding sisters, Auburn and Taffeta, for their lifelong support; without their love, belief in my strengths, patience with my struggles, and encouragement, I would not be in this position today. I am forever grateful to my wonderful director, Dr. Angela Hague, whose commitment to this project went above and beyond what I deserved to expect. To the rest of my committee, Dr. David Lavery and Dr. Robert Petersen, for their seasoned advice and willingness to participate, I am also indebted. Beyond these, I would like to recognize some “unofficial” members of my committee, including Dr. Elyce Helford, Dr. Alicia Broderick, Ari Ne’eman, Chris Foss, and Melanie Yergau, who graciously offered me necessary guidance and insightful advice for this project, particularly in the field of Disability Studies. Yet most of all, Ephesians 3.20-21. iii ABSTRACT Autism has been sensationalized by the media because of the disorder’s purported prevalence: Diagnoses of this condition that was traditionally considered to be quite rare have radically increased in recent years, and an analogous fascination with autism has emerged in the field of popular culture.

Jon Huntsman’s recent decision to disapprove of expan- sion plans for Envirocare surprised those on both sides of the issue. Envirocare representatives used the words stunned, shocked and surprised when they heard of the governor’s position. On the other side, representatives from Healthy Alliance of Utah (HEAL) were ecstatic. “We commend Gov. Huntsman for putting the health and well- being of Utahns over the profits of Envirocare’s investors,” said Jason Groenewold, director of HEAL Utah. “He clearly showed his resolve to keep Utah from becoming entrenched as the nation’s nuclear waste dumping ground.” Groenewold was surprised because some people who have worked closely with the governor are Evirocare investors, he said. “Huntsman’s promise to oppose Envirocare’s expansion allayed those concerns.” “His opposition to Envirocare’s expansion shows Gov.

Aughinbaugh, M.D., LL.B., LL.M. Is the former Czar and his Imperial family still alive? There are millions of people in Europe and America who are asking this question. European governments have considered the question of sufficient interest to justify the investigation by official bodies of the alleged extinction of this ancient Royal Line. Millions have been expended for that purpose. Commissions have pretended to investigate the subject _after_ the event. Volumes have been returned of a speculative nature to authenticate a mysterious _disappearance_ that has never been explained.

  • Digging up Dirt Alexandria Yeager
    DIGGING UP DIRT AND REPORTING LIES: The Image of the Journalist in the Television Series Bones By Alexandria Yeager Yeager 1 ABSTRACT Corrupt. Pushy. Apathetic. Concerned only about money and getting the story first, the facts second. These are just a few of the descriptions the audience may give journalists after watching how news reporters are portrayed on the television series Bones. Journalists are often seen as obstacles in the effort to successfully solve crimes, usually reporting on facts that later turn out to be untrue. Many times the media are nameless and faceless, just in the background shouting out questions and flashing their cameras. Sometimes journalists aren’t even present – the characters on the show speak negatively about them. They are usually justified for doing so. For the most part, this negative image of journalists continues throughout the show’s first five seasons. However, a change in season six occurs when a journalist becomes a recurring character. She is war correspondent Hannah Burley (Katheryn Winnick) and the love interest of one of the main characters, FBI Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz). As a show centered on the sexual tension of the leads, the series works to make Burley, yet another obstacle coming between the main characters, likeable. Although the show revolves around crime solvers and journalists are not weekly fixtures on the show, the subtle comments, along with the journalists who do appear throughout the series, give viewers a negative image of the press. An added layer is that many of the cases mirror real-life, headline-making stories that the press reported on extensively: from high school pregnancy pacts, to the murder of a young beauty pageant contestant, to a pregnant woman allegedly murdered by her husband.
