Amy Walter to Keynote WHA Advocacy Day 2017 on April 19 WHA Launches Physician Quality Academy
February 3, 2017 Volume 61, Issue 5 WHA Launches Physician Quality Academy Doctors’ role important in leading quality improvement projects Physicians have an important role in health care quality improvement projects in their organizations. Their clinical expertise and leadership are valuable assets in designing and conducting initiatives known to improve the quality of patient care. While physicians are often asked to lead quality improvement activities, they may not have access to the resources they need to be successful. In response to this need, the Wisconsin Hospital Association (WHA) created the WHA Physician Quality Academy for physicians employed by its member hospitals and health systems. “Quality improvement initiatives are powerful tools for making sure evidence-based practices make it to the bedside and are performed consistently,” according to Robert S. Redwood, MD, MPH, and faculty for the WHA Physician Quality Academy. “As physicians, quality improvement empowers our profession to use population health data to better inform our individual patient care.” The WHA Physician Quality Academy will bring physicians together from across the state who can then collaborate and build on their QI knowledge. The Academy will support physicians by providing face-to- face education opportunities, as well as additional resources, to learn the newest tools and principles that lead to successful initiatives known to improve quality in hospitals, clinics and other care settings. “WHA is a recognized national leader in offering our members

Style Over Substance? a Content Analysis of the Gendered Style of Political Pundits on the "Big Five" Megan A. Ancarro
Style over Substance? A Content Analysis of the Gendered Style of Political Pundits on the "Big Five" Megan A. Ancarrow Thesis submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Communication Robert E. Denton, Jr., Chair John C. Tedesco Beth M. Waggenspack May 2, 2016 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: political pundits, gendered rhetorical style, Theory of Cultural Dimensions, Big Five Sunday talk shows Style over Substance? A Content Analysis of the Gendered Style of Political Pundits on the "Big Five" Megan A. Ancarrow ABSTRACT It is well known that males dominate politics, both in elected positions and in the media as political pundits (Melber, 2011). Is it the masculine style that is appealing to society? Do popular political pundits (male and female) emulate this masculine style in order to appeal to and persuade their audience? Through a content analysis of the rhetoric of six specified political pundits, it is hypothesized that both males and females are more likely to incorporate masculine styles of rhetoric, and those who display more masculine style traits will be more acceptable to the general audience leading to more airtime and appearances across networks. Through the analysis of the programs’ 2013 transcripts, the communicative style of both male and female political pundits of the top five news programs from the big five networks will be studied: ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, CBS's Face the Nation with Bob Schieffer, CNN's State of the Union with Candy Crowley, Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace, and NBC's Meet the Press with Chuck Todd.
