  • Generation “Undecided”: Millennial Discourses And
    Generation “Undecided”: Millennial Discourses and Media Reactions to Changing Political Behaviors A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Drexel University by Alison N. Novak in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2014 ii -Copyright Page- iii -Dedication- To my parents, who fought to get me into the high-honors civics course in 9th grade. v Acknowledgements To begin, my parents, Michael and Denise Novak have been an incredible support system. The way they live their life has taught me the meaning of being a true member of a community and citizen. The study presented here is based on the principles of responsibility, compassion, and engagement that they have taught me. Thank you for teaching me how to grow up and be an adult. A great deal of this study is inspired by the teachers in my life. I’ve been given many gifts along the way, but I truly believe that learning from inspiring leaders and teachers is foundational in the way I try to live my life. These people include Jeanne Boulanger, Evelyn Novak, Aunt Melinda Novak, Uncle Jerry Meyers, Uncle Leon Boulanger, Dorothy and Edward Markowski, Carol MacMullen, Colleen James, Mrs. Zwiben, and my professors from Marist College. I am grateful to the members of the Drexel University community. From the moment I started in the doctoral program, the University has been a tremendous source of intellectual, emotional, and social support. Over the past four years, The Department of Culture and Communication has made me and fellow students feel as if we can accomplish anything, and so we do.

  • Xm and Air America Radio Announce Long Term Agreement; Xm to Be Official Satellite Radio Network of Air America

  • Generational Use of News Media in Estonia
    Generational Use of News Media in Estonia Contemporary media research highlights the importance of empirically analysing the relationships between media and age; changing user patterns over the life course; and generational experiences within media discourse beyond the widely-hyped buzz terms such as the ‘digital natives’, ‘Google generation’, etc. The Generational Use doctoral thesis seeks to define the ‘repertoires’ of news media that different generations use to obtain topical information and create of News Media their ‘media space’. The thesis contributes to the development of in Estonia a framework within which to analyse generational features in news audiences by putting the main focus on the cultural view of generations. This perspective was first introduced by Karl Mannheim in 1928. Departing from his legacy, generations can be better conceived of as social formations that are built on self- identification, rather than equally distributed cohorts. With the purpose of discussing the emergence of various ‘audiencing’ patterns from the perspectives of age, life course and generational identity, the thesis centres on Estonia – a post-Soviet Baltic state – as an empirical example of a transforming society with a dynamic media landscape that is witnessing the expanding impact of new media and a shift to digitisation, which should have consequences for the process of ‘generationing’. The thesis is based on data from nationally representative cross- section surveys on media use and media attitudes (conducted 2002–2012). In addition to that focus group discussions are used to map similarities and differences between five generation cohorts born 1932–1997 with regard to the access and use of established news media, thematic preferences and spatial orientations of Signe Opermann Signe Opermann media use, and a discursive approach to news formats.

    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2019 Remarks Prior to a Meeting with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong of Singapore and an Exchange With Reporters in New York City September 23, 2019 President Trump. Well, thank you very much. As we just said, we signed a very important agreement having to do with defense and mutual defense and, I guess you could say, mutual offense also. But we—we're now going to talk about trade. We do tremendous amounts of trade with Singapore. And the Prime Minister—highly respected. One of the truly most respected men anywhere in the world. And he's been my friend for a long time. And we're doing very well. But we do tremendous trade with Singapore, and we appreciate it very much, Mr. Prime Minister. Prime Minister Lee. Well, thank you, Mr. President. As you said, we just signed an agreement to extend our memorandum of understanding on defense cooperation. President Trump. Right. Prime Minister Lee. It's the second time we are extending this. It reflects a very good defense relationship we have between the two countries, but also reflects our broader cooperation and friendship. And, in economics, we have an FTA between the U.S. and Singapore. President Trump. Right. Prime Minister Lee. The volume of trade is substantial and the volume of investments too. In Singapore, you are one—you are our most important foreign investor. And, in America, as small as we are, we have $55 billion worth of investments—— President Trump. That's not too bad. Prime Minister Lee.
