What are the implications of such a delivery system for coverage of local issues and the Jeffersonian ideal of an informed citizenry? This study employs a content analysis of outsourced and local newscasts, using a data set of more than 1,000 stories from more than 30 hours of newscasts to determine if differences exist on story topics and source types.

For more information, please contact [email protected] THE FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF COMMUNICATIONS REPRESENTATION OF JEWS IN THE MEDIA: AN ANALYSIS OF OLD HOLLYWOOD STEREOTYPES PERPETUATED IN MODERN TELEVISION By MINNAH STEIN A Thesis submitted to the Department of Communications and Media Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with Honors in the Major Degree Awarded: Summer, 2021 The members of the Defense Committee approve the thesis of Minnah Stein defended on April 2, 2021. Dr. Andrew Opel Thesis Director Dr. Martin Kavka Outside Committee Member Dr. Arienne Ferchaud Committee Member 2 Abstract Anti-Semitism in the United States is just as prevalent today as it has ever been. How does this cultural anti-Semitism translate into the media? Through portraying Jews as greedy, neurotic, pushy, money obsessed, cheap, and a myriad other negative stereotypes, the media often perpetuates long standing anti-Semitic tropes. This thesis analyzes the prevalence of Jewish stereotypes in modern television through the analysis and discussion of three of the most popular current television shows, getting into the nuance and complexity of Jewish representation. Through the deliberate viewing of Big Mouth, The Goldbergs, and Schitt’s Creek, the conclusion is that although an effort is being made to debunk some stereotypes about Jews, there are other Jewish stereotypes that have remained popular in television media. These stereotypes are harmful to Jews because they both feed and fuel the anti-Semitic attitudes of viewers.

  • May 19, 2016 Individual Income and Corporation Income Taxes Act 425
    Revenue Information Bulletin No. 16-006 (amended) May 19, 2016 Individual Income and Corporation Income Taxes Act 425 Withholding Requirements Regarding Expenses Claimed for Motion Picture Investor Tax Credit Act 425 of the 2015 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature requires withholding on certain payments that are expended in the state and will be claimed as an eligible expense for purposes of the motion picture investor tax credit, which is created by R.S. 47:6007. Specifically, the requirements of the amended statute, R.S. 47:164(D)(2), are applicable to “any individual receiving any payments for the performance of services used directly in a production activity, which payments shall be claimed as a production expenditure for purposes of certification of tax credits…” Further, the withholding is required by “any motion picture production company, motion picture payroll services company, or other entity making or causing to be made payments…to an individual, or to an agent or agency, loan-out company, personal service company, employee leasing company, or other entity.” In such an instance, taxes are required to be withheld at “the highest individual rate of six percent, or the highest individual rate in effect at the time.” The purpose of this Revenue Information Bulletin is to provide guidance on the new requirements and to answer questions which are frequently asked by taxpayers regarding Act 425. 1.) Which expenditures are subject to the 6% withholding requirement? All payments made to individuals for the performance of services are subject to the 6% withholding requirements. The withholding requirement applies whether the payment is made directly or indirectly to an individual.

  • FCC Seeks Comment on STELA DTV Signal Strength Prediction and Measurement Procedures
    August 9, 2010 FCC Seeks Comment on STELA DTV Signal Strength Prediction and Measurement Procedures On July 28, 2010 the FCC released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking which seeks comment on a prediction model and on-site measurement procedure for determining the strength of a DTV signal at any specific location. These would be used to determine whether a household could be considered “unserved” by a local network affiliated DTV station and thus would be eligible to receive a distant DTV network affiliated signal retransmitted by DTH satellite carriers (e.g DirecTV or Dish Network). The Commission is taking this action as a consequence of the Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act of 2010 (STELA) which was enacted by Congress in February, 2010. The STELA requires the FCC, within 270 days enactment, to: 1) “…develop and prescribe by rule a point-to-point predictive model for reliably and presumptively determining the ability of individual locations, through the use of an antenna, to receive signals in accordance with the signal intensity standard in Section 73.622(e)(1) of the rules…” and 2) Issue an order completing its rulemaking to establish a procedure for on-site measurement of digital television signals in ET Docket No. 06-94 (See TV TechCheck from May 17, 2006) In the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) portion of this action the FCC proposes to prescribe a point-to-point predictive model (referred to as ILLR - Individual Location Longley-Rice) for determining the ability of individual locations to receive an over-the-air digital television broadcast signal at the intensity level needed for service through the use of an antenna, as required by the STELA.
