  • Patterns of Energy Drink Advertising Over US Television Networks Jennifer A
    Research Article Patterns of Energy Drink Advertising Over US Television Networks Jennifer A. Emond, PhD1,2; James D. Sargent, MD1,3; Diane Gilbert-Diamond, ScD1,2 ABSTRACT Objective: To describe programming themes and the inclusion of adolescents in the base audience for television channels with high levels of energy drink advertising airtime. Design: Secondary analysis of energy drink advertising airtime over US network and cable television channels (n ¼ 139) from March, 2012 to February, 2013. Programming themes and the inclusion of adolescents in each channel’s base audience were extracted from cable television trade reports. Main Outcome Measure: Energy drink advertising airtime. Analysis: Channels were ranked by airtime; programming themes and the inclusion of adolescents in the base audience were summarized for the 10 channels with the most airtime. Results: Over the study year, 36,501 minutes (608 hours) were devoted to energy drink advertisements; the top 10 channels accounted for 46.5% of such airtime. Programming themes for the top 10 channels were music (n ¼ 3), sports (n ¼ 3), action-adventure lifestyle (n ¼ 2), African American lifestyle (n ¼ 1), and comedy (n ¼ 1). MTV2 ranked first in airtime devoted to energy drink advertisements. Six of the 10 channels with the most airtime included adolescents aged 12–17 years in their base audience. Conclusions and Implications: Energy drink manufacturers primarily advertise on channels that likely appeal to adolescents. Nutritionists may wish to consider energy drink media literacy when advising adolescents about energy drink consumption. Key Words: energy drinks, adolescents, marketing, television (J Nutr Educ Behav. 2015;47:120-126.) Accepted November 17, 2014.

  • “He Hath Mingled with the Ungodly”
    ―HE HATH MINGLED WITH THE UNGODLY‖: THE LIFE OF SIMEON SOLOMON AFTER 1873, WITH A SURVEY OF THE EXTANT WORKS CAROLYN CONROY TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I PH.D. THE UNIVERSITY OF YORK HISTORY OF ART DECEMBER 2009 2 ABSTRACT This thesis focuses on the life and work of the marginalized British Pre-Raphaelite and Aesthetic homosexual Jewish painter Simeon Solomon (1840-1905) after 1873.This year was fundamental in the artist‘s professional and personal life, because it is the year that he was arrested for attempted sodomy charges in London. The popular view that has been disseminated by the early historiography of Solomon, since before and after his death in 1905, has been to claim that, after this date, the artist led a life that was worthless, both personally and artistically. It has also asserted that this situation was self-inflicted, and that, despite the consistent efforts of his family and friends to return him to the conventions of Victorian middle-class life, he resisted, and that, this resistant was evidence of his ‗deviancy‘. Indeed, for over sixty years, the overall effect of this early historiography has been to defame the character of Solomon and reduce his importance within the Aesthetic movement and the second wave of Pre-Raphaelitism. It has also had the effect of relegating the work that he produced after 1873 to either virtual obscurity or critical censure. In fact, it is only recently that a revival of interest in the artist has gained momentum, although the latter part of his life from 1873 has still remained under- researched and unrecorded.

THE SAME OLD BLUES CRAP: SELLING THE BLUES AT FAT POSSUM RECORDS A Thesis presented in partial fulfillment of requirements for the Master of Arts in Southern Studies The University of Mississippi JACQUI SAHAGIAN MAY 2018 Copyright © 2018 by Jacqui Sahagian All rights reserved ABSTRACT This thesis interrogates the marketing strategies of the Oxford, Mississippi-based record label Fat Possum, which was founded in the early 1990s by Matthew Johnson with the goal of recording obscure hill country blues artists. Fat Possum gained recognition for its raw-sounding recordings of bluesmen, including R.L. Burnside, Junior Kimbrough, Cedell Davis, and T-Model Ford, as well as its irreverent marketing techniques. Adopting the tagline “not the same old blues crap,” Fat Possum asserted that its blues were both different from and superior to all other blues music. This thesis argues that while Fat Possum claimed to be a disruptive force in the blues world, the label actually repeated marketing strategies that have been used to sell the blues since the genre was first sold during the 1920s race records era.
