American Idol Synthesis
English Language and Composition Reading Time: 15 minutes Suggested Writing Time: 40 minutes Directions: The following prompt is based on the accompanying four sources. This question requires you to integrate a variety of sources into a coherent, well-written essay. Refer to the sources to support your position: avoid mere paraphrase or summary. Your argument should be central; the sources should support this argument. Remember to attribute both direct and indirect citations. Introduction In a culture of television in which the sensations of one season must be “topped” in the next, where do we draw the line between decency and entertainment? In the sixth season of popular TV show, “American Idol”, many Americans felt that the inclusion of mentally disabled contestants was inappropriate and that the remarks made to these contestants were both cruel and distasteful. Did this television show allow mentally disabled contestants in order to exploit them for entertainment? Assignment Read the following sources (including any introductory information) carefully. Then, in an essay that synthesizes the sources for support, take a position that defends, challenges, or qualifies the claim that the treatment of mentally disabled reality TV show contestant, Jonathan Jayne, was exploitative. Refer to the sources as Source A, Source B, etc.: titles are included for your convenience. Source A (Americans with Disabilities Act) Source B (Kelleher) Source C (Goldstein) Source D (Special Olympics) **Question composed and sources compiled by AP English Language and Composition teacher Wendy Turner, Paul Laurence Dunbar High School, Lexington, KY, on February 7, 2007. Source A The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. -
Re-Mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity by Melina Kristine Dabney A
Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity By Melina Kristine Dabney A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Film Studies 2017 This thesis entitled: Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the new Femininity written by Melina Kristine Dabney has been approved for the Department of Film Studies ________________________________________________ (Melinda Barlow, Ph.D., Committee Chair) ________________________________________________ (Suranjan Ganguly, Ph.D., Committee Member) ________________________________________________ (Reiland Rabaka, Ph.D., Committee Member) Date: The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we Find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards Of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. Dabney, Melina Kristine (BA/MA Film Studies) Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity Thesis directed by Professor Melinda Barlow While there is a substantial amount of scholarship on the depiction of African American women in film and television, this thesis exposes the new formations of African American femininity on screen. African American women have consistently resisted, challenged, submitted to, and remixed racial myths and sexual stereotypes existing in American cinema and television programming. Mainstream film and television practices significantly contribute to the reinforcement of old stereotypes in contemporary black women characters. However, based on the efforts of African American producers like Shonda Rhimes, who has attempted to insert more realistic renderings of African American women in her recent television shows, black women’s representation is undergoing yet another shift in contemporary media. -
The Humour of Greyson Chance (To Mark the Third Anniversary of the Beginning of His Career)
1 The Humour Of Greyson Chance (to mark the third anniversary of the beginning of his career) 28 April 2010, when he posted his cover of Paparazzi and his own song Broken Hearts to YouTube, is usually regarded as the beginning of his career. A year ago (on 30 April 2012), during a private function in Hongkong, he recounted that his fans had tweeted to him two days previously ’Two years, two years, two years’ and that he had wondered ‘What’s two years?’ which provoked merriment among the audience. Upon this, he performed a liberally modified version of his cover of Lady Gaga’s Paparazzi, originally the commencement of his career: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNZFilwkfvU It is reassuring that his fans remind him of this anniversary when he himself fails to remember it! This was the time that followed his (band-accompanied) first concert tour in South-East Asia, when he stayed on for a few weeks to perform solo and give interviews. His most frequently varied song, Waiting Outside The Lines, he often interpreted in an exuberant manner, winding up by repeating the ‘wo-o’ for up to forty seconds. Unfortunately, the videos are often of a bad quality: 24 April in Taiwan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL2Qa_6XGZg 20 April in Hongkong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnsZkuCKwUs 4 May in Bangkok: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHI65bMUj9o These videos show clearly that he entertains not only his fans, but also himself, and that it is one of his basic characteristics to vary the songs from each perfomance to the next. -

Copyright by Jennifer Minsoo Kang 2012 The Thesis Committee for Jennifer Minsoo Kang Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: From Illegal Copying to Licensed Formats: An Overview of Imported Format Flows into Korea 1999-2011 APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: Joseph D. Straubhaar Karin G. Wilkins From Illegal Copying to Licensed Formats: An Overview of Imported Format Flows into Korea 1999-2011 by Jennifer Minsoo Kang, B.A.; M.A. Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Dedication To my family; my parents, sister and brother Abstract From Illegal Copying to Licensed Formats: An Overview of Imported Format Flows into Korea 1999-2011 Jennifer Minsoo Kang, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2012 Supervisor: Joseph D. Straubhaar The format program trade has grown rapidly in the past decade and has become an important part of the global television market. This study aimed to give an understanding of this phenomenon by examining how global formats enter and become incorporated into the national media market through a case study analysis on the Korean format market. Analyses were done to see how the historical background influenced the imported format flows, how the format flows changed after the media liberalization period, and how the format uses changed from illegal copying to partial formats to whole licensed formats. Overall, the results of this study suggest that the global format program flows are different from the whole ‘canned’ program flows because of the adaptation processes, which is a form of hybridity, the formats go through. -

BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Media Memiliki Fungsi Dan Disfungsi Tersendiri Bagi Khalayaknya. Khalayak Secara Sadar
BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Media memiliki fungsi dan disfungsi tersendiri bagi khalayaknya. Khalayak secara sadar memilih media mana yang sesuai dengan keinginan dan kebutuhannya. Media massa adalah alat-alat dalam komunikasi yang bisa menyebarkan pesan secara serempak, cepat kepada audiens yang luas dan heterogen. Istilah “media massa” memberikan gambaran mengenai alat komunikasi yang bekerja dalam berbagai skala terbatas hingga dapat mencapai dan melibatkan siapa saja dalam masyarakat dalam skala yang sangat luas. Istilah media massa mengacu kepada sejumlah media yang telah ada sejak puluhan tahun yang lalu dan tetap digunakan hingga saat ini seperti surat kabar, majalah, film, radio, televisi, dan internet (Morissan, 2013:479). Kelebihan media massa dibanding dengan jenis komunikasi lain adalah ia bisa mengatasi hambatan ruang dan waktu. Bahkan media massa mampu menyebarkan pesan hampir seketika pada waktu yang tak terbatas (Nurudin, 2007). Media massa televisi merupakan suatu sarana yang sangat efektif dalam mempengaruhi pola pikir manusia karena televisi merupakan sebuah media yang sudah tidak asing lagi. Hampir disetiap rumah ada televisi. Sehingga televisi sebagai media komunikasi memiliki kemampuan untuk mengakses publik hingga ke ruang pribadi. Televisi merupakan hasil produk teknologi tinggi (hi-tech) yang menyampaikan isi pesan dalam bentuk audiovisual gerak. Isi pesan audiovisual gerak memiliki kekuatan yang sangat tinggi untuk mempengaruhi mental, pola 1 pikir, dan tindak individu. Televisi adalah media audio visual yaitu sebuah media yang tidak hanya bisa didengar saja tetapi juga bisa dilihat gambarnya. Pesatnya perkembangan televisi di Indonesia membuat banyaknya stasiun televisi yang menyuguhkan acara-acara menghibur di kala santai. Belakangan ini sering kita jumpai di berbagai stasiun televisi banyak yang menyajikan tayangan talkshow, magazine show dan acara reality show yang disajikan dengan beragam tema dan tampilan. -

Rca Records to Release American Idol: Greatest Moments on October 1
THE RCA RECORDS LABEL ___________________________________________ RCA RECORDS TO RELEASE AMERICAN IDOL: GREATEST MOMENTS ON OCTOBER 1 On the heels of crowning Kelly Clarkson as America's newest pop superstar, RCA Records is proud to announce the release of American Idol: Greatest Moments on Oct. 1. The first full-length album of material from Fox's smash summer television hit, "American Idol," will include four songs by Clarkson, two by runner-up Justin Guarini, a song each by the remaining eight finalists, and “California Dreamin’” performed by all ten. All 14 tracks on American Idol: Greatest Moments, produced by Steve Lipson (Backstreet Boys, Annie Lennox), were performed on "American Idol" during the final weeks of the reality-based television barnburner. In addition to Kelly and Justin, the show's remaining eight finalists featured on the album include Nikki McKibbon, Tamyra Gray, EJay Day, RJ Helton, AJ Gil, Ryan Starr, Christina Christian, and Jim Verraros. Producer Steve Lipson, who put the compilation together in an unprecedented two-weeks time, finds a range of pop gems on the album. "I think Kelly's version of ‘Natural Woman' is really strong. Her vocals are brilliant. She sold me on the song completely. I like Christina's 'Ain't No Sunshine.' I think she got the emotion of it across well. Nikki is very good as well -- very underestimated. And Tamyra is brilliant too so there's not much more to say about her." RCA Records will follow American Idol: Greatest Moments with the debut album from “American Idol” champion Kelly Clarkson in the first quarter of 2003.
