Book printing was started in 15th & 16 th Century in Europe. • The emergence of Print Media created doubts in the minds of the rulers and they took it as a threat against their rule. The rulers presumed that people would become aware of their rights and they will challenge the authority. So most of the rulers in Europe took it as a revolt and declared capital punishment for the persons involved in Mass Media. In 1663, the last capital punishment was given to a publisher because he published a book of an anonymous writer. This book contained the idea that rulers are accountable for their deeds and decisions to the masses and if any ruler does not feel himself accountable then masses have the right to overthrow his rule. This was the last capital punishment that was awarded in the history of England.

  • Examining the Magazine Industry Standard
    POINT OF VIEW: EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts by CRISTINA DAGLAS John Fennell, Thesis Supervisor MAY 2009 © Copyright by Cristina Daglas 2009 All Rights Reserved The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled POINT OF VIEW : EXAMINING THE MAGAZINE INDUSTRY STANDARD presented by Cristina Daglas, a candidate for the degree of master of arts, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor John Fennell Professor Jennifer Rowe Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Maureen Stanton ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am immensely grateful to my thesis chair, John Fennell, who believed in both the necessity for and the feasibility of this research. When many doubted the ability to interview prominent magazine professionals, John provided support and guidance while always keeping setbacks and successes in perspective. John has been a mentor from first semester of graduate school when I enrolled in his writing course, and I am so pleased that I could pursue a topic I am incredibly passionate about with his guidance. However, this research would naturally not be what it is without the rest of my fabulous committee. Jennifer Rowe, my other mentor, adviser and friend, was an invaluable resource, as she provided big-picture edits, line edits and, most importantly, support. Amanda Hinnant provided advice in the earliest days of thesis conception as well as the scholarly perspective necessary in any academic work. Maureen Stanton was also a wonderful resource, imparting an outside, nonfiction mindset that added another dimension to this journalistic thesis.

  • Acknowledgments
    Acknowledgments his edition of Best American Magazine Writing collects Tarticles honored by the American Society of Magazine Editors at the presentation of the National Magazine Awards in March 2019. The Best American Magazine Writing series began in 2000 and has been published by Columbia Uni- versity Press since 2005, but the history of the National Maga- zine Awards dates to the early 1960s, when ASME and Colum- bia University founded the program as a counterpart to the Pulitzer Prize. More than half a century later ASME continues to sponsor the awards in association with the Columbia School of Journalism. The first National Magazine Award— there was only one award presented in the first four years of the program— was presented to Look in 1966 for “its skillful editing, imagination and editorial integrity, all of which were reflected particularly in its treatment of the racial issue during 1965.” Look at the time was one of the largest general interest magazines in the United States, with a cir- culation of more than 7 million, but from the beginning ASME strove to honor a broad range of publications. The same yearLook won the first National Magazine Award, three magazines—Ebony , Grade Teacher, and Scientific American— were presented Certifi- cates of Special Recognition, and nine received commendations, including the New Yorker for “its flair for dramatic innovation xx Acknowledgments as demonstrated by its publication of Truman Capote’s ‘In Cold Blood,’ ” Time for “its well researched, expertly written and bal- anced series of ‘TIME Essays,’ ” and Vogue for “its effective use of color in editorial pages.” In 2019, the New Yorker, Time, and Vogue were again among the National Magazine Awards honorees, but the categories in which they were finalists go far toward explaining the changes that have overtaken both the awards program and the very nature of magazine journalism in recent years.

  • Changing Magazine Journalism Key Trends in Norwegian Women’S Magazines
    10.2478/nor-2013-0105 Nordicom Review 34 (2013) Special Issue, pp. 75-88 Changing Magazine Journalism Key Trends in Norwegian Women’s Magazines Brita Ytre-Arne Abstract This article analyses developments in Norwegian magazine journalism in the last decade, focusing on the broad and varied spectrum of magazines targeting women. The analysis is based on multiple methods and data sources, aiming to connect the production and reception of magazine journalism to the texts of magazines. This article will identify and discuss five key trends: fragmentation, digitalization, Nordic inspiration, redefinition of the political and beautification. The trends are discussed in light of public sphere theory and selected orientations in Nordic journalism research. Keywords: magazines, lifestyle journalism, fragmentation, digitalization, public sphere Introduction In the past ten years, a series of technological, financial, political and cultural processes have contributed to profound changes in magazine journalism. Some developments are similar in magazines and other media, while other challenges and opportunities are particular to different forms of journalism on different media platforms. This article analyses changes in magazine journalism, using Norway as a case and relating the discussion to a Nordic context. The magazine market of the Nordic countries has been described as pan-Nordic (Harrie 2009), and there are particularly close relations between the Scandinavian coun- tries both in terms of ownership and journalistic content.

Social Media Responsibility & Best Practices “In your text, treat Africa as if it were one country. It is hot and dusty with rolling grasslands and huge herds of animals and tall, thin people who are starving. Or it is hot and steamy with very short people who eat primates. Don’t get bogged down with precise descriptions. Africa is big: fifty-four countries, 900 million people who are too busy starving and dying and warring and emigrating to read your book. The continent is full of deserts, jungles, highlands, savannahs and many other things, but your reader doesn’t care about all that, so keep your descriptions romantic and evocative and unparticular.” – Excerpt from “How to Write About Africa” by Binyavanga Wainaina Verge aims to educate readers in a way that encourages social responsibility, cross- cultural understanding or sustainable development. In order to ensure that we are meeting these goals, we encourage our bloggers to consider the following guidelines prior to posting their blog: Avoid perpetuating stereotypes.
