With the rise of mass media, such offenders also began sending verbal communications to journalists and the authorities. Unsurprisingly, the 21st century has seen alienated killers promote their violent actions and homicidal identities through online communications: from VLOGs to manifestos, even videos depicting murder and corpse mutilation.

    TESTIMONY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL TWENTY-SIXTH LEGISLATURE, 2012 ON THE FOLLOWING MEASURE: S.B. NO.2111, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, RELATING TO FILM AND DIGITAL MEDIA INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT (PROPOSED). BEFORE THE: HOUSE COMMIYFEE ON ECONOMIC REVITALIZATION AN]) BUSINESS DATE: Thursday, March 15, 2012 TIME: 9:45 a.m. LOCATION: State Capitol, Room 312 TESTIFIER(S): David M. Louie, Attorney General, or Randall S. Nishiyama, Deputy Attorney General Chair McKelvey and Members of the Committee: The Department of the Attorney General has several legal concerns regarding the revenue bond provisions of this bill (section 2 of the bill). This bill authorizes the Director of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism (‘Director”) to issue revenue bonds to assist individuals with qualified media infrastructure projects. In addition, this bill establishes the Qualified Media Infrastructure Projects Special Fund for the disbursement of the bond proceeds and other moneys. Also, this bill addresses various aspects of tax credits for motion picture, digital media, and film production. First, the bill’s revenue bonds do not appear to satisfy the Hawaii State Constitution’s definition of “revenue bonds.” Article VII, section 12, of the Hawaii State Constitution defines revenue bonds as follows: 7. The term “revenue bonds” means all bonds payable from the revenues, or user taxes, or any combination of both, of a public undertaking, improvement, system or loan program and any loan made thereunder and secured as may be provided by law, including a loan program to provide loans to a state property insurance program providing hurricane insurance coverage to the general public.

  • 2016: the Year America Noticed Antisemitism Bruce Abramson & Jeff Ballabon* December 2016 Slandering Trump the 2016 Election Was Notable in More Than a Few Ways
    2016: The Year America Noticed Antisemitism Bruce Abramson & Jeff Ballabon* December 2016 Slandering Trump The 2016 election was notable in more than a few ways. One of them was a heightened focus on the troubling rise of antisemitism in the United States—a phenomenon that has been evident throughout the Western world for at least the entirety of the twenty-first century. In 2016, however, the antisemites opened a new front. For the first time in decades, overt political antisemitism appeared on the national scene from forces who identified as part of America’s political right. Though small enough to qualify as a potentially troubling curiosity, these forces played a considerable role in the story that the mainstream press wanted to tell. The established media thus chose to downplay the tens of millions of decent, hardworking Americans rallying behind Donald Trump’s candidacy to focus obsessively on a fringe movement—that Trump repeatedly condemned—who took pride and joy in employing antisemitic images, languages, and memes, allegedly on his behalf. One media darling was the old-school white supremacist David Duke—a man whom the GOP has publicly rejected numerous times over the past few decades, including his moment of peak popularity in the early 1990s. Duke, despite reemerging as a media favorite upon announcing his support for Trump (support that, once again, Trump repeatedly repudiated), ran a dismal seventh in his 2016 bid for a Louisiana Senate seat—suggesting a far greater interest among America’s news editors and producers than among Louisiana’s voters. Another was the younger, more media savvy Richard Spencer, president of the National Policy Institute (NPI), “an independent organization dedicated to the heritage, identity, and future of people of European descent in the United States, and around the world.”1 Spencer, who had labored in inconsequential anonymity prior to 2016, understood that the path to notoriety was paved with Nazi symbolism—which he dutifully trotted out whenever the cameras were rolling.

As I sat watching the wedding of Kevin and Scotty on Brothers & Sisters, I was moved by the grav- ity of the moment. Never before had two leading gay characters wed on a broadcast network. Watching them, I saw myself, a member of the gay community, reflected on television. Just four days after the episode aired, the Califor- nia Supreme Court handed down its decision extending marriage in the state to gay and lesbian couples. Progress is happeningI everywhere we look. As we can see in the country’s current cultural and political shift, that progress doesn’t happen in a vacuum. When lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people are portrayed in a fair, accurate and inclusive manner on televi- sion, hearts and minds are changed. The more accurately the diversity of our community is reflected, the more opportunities there are for understanding and acceptance. In addition to Kevin and Scotty’s wedding, Brothers & Sisters featured Saul, one of the rare images of a gay character over 60. Transgender characters are appearing as regular and recurring characters in honest and nuanced story arcs on Ugly Betty, Dirty Sexy Money and The L Word. Young adult shows like GREEK and South of Nowhere, as well as the daytime drama As the World Turns feature multi-dimensional gay teen characters that go to school, live their lives, date and, yes, kiss. These portrayals make all the difference in making the lives of LGBT people real to TV viewers across the country.
