This document discusses arguments for and against regulation of contemporary media such as film and press.
Proponents of film regulation argue that observational learning theory shows that children may imitate inappropriate behaviors they see in films, and cite the Jamie Bulger case as an example. However, others argue that violence in films is purely for entertainment and there is no evidence it directly causes harm. Supporters of press regulation want to protect moral values and minorities from misrepresentation, while critics point to studies finding media effects are generally weak and inconclusive. Debates continue around balancing free expression versus protecting audiences.
The document discusses how a news story about a terrorist threat in Europe would satisfy several of Galtung and Ruge's news values. It would have a high threshold as it affects many people. The frequency is constant after the Paris attacks. It has negativity as terrorist threats are exciting bad news. There is also cultural proximity as discussions involve influential nations like France and England. Continuity applies as terrorism remains an ongoing story that news teams are prepared to cover. The soft news story could also satisfy the values of simplicity, exclusivity, recency, and size.
Post-truth refers to situations where appeals to emotion and personal belief have greater influence over public opinion than objective facts. Two examples are given: the £350 million per week claim made during the UK's Brexit referendum that was later admitted to be false, and the justification for the Iraq War being related to oil resources rather than terrorism. Audiences have responded to post-truth practices by expressing concerns through protests, questioning the validity of news sources, and losing trust in institutions.
This document analyzes news propagation on the social networking site Friendfeed using data from September 2009. It finds that news of the death of Italian TV host Mike Bongiorno spread rapidly, with the first post receiving 130 comments and later posts totaling 585 comments as the story was discussed and shared. The propagation followed identifiable paths through major hubs on the network. The analysis suggests social networks may represent an evolution of traditional mass media, as users decide what information to spread and discuss rather than passively receiving pre-selected news.
Main Highlights on Performance Data from BBC.com
• Sport had a great month off the back of Euro 2012 and Wimbledon, hitting 14.3M unique visitors, (a peak for the past 12 months), (+13%) on target and over a third up on June last year.
• The Mobile site had another impressive month and reached a record number of 8.1M unique visitors, (+13%) MoM and (+40%) on target
• Downloads of BBC News Apps reached 9.9M across IOS and Android, producing another record month for visitors, 3.1M (17% above target) Engagement stayed high at 36 PVs per Visitor
The document summarizes a presentation given by Julia Shuvalova on using social media to empower communities. The presentation addressed problems non-profits have using social sites, providing easy-to-follow advice for those new to social media. It looked past metrics to focus on engagement. Shuvalova is an experienced creative professional advising on social media strategy and online PR. The presentation provided tips on understanding audiences, integrating across channels, and measuring social media return on engagement rather than just return on investment.
Case Study: Brands Using Mobile PhotographyDigiday
Michoel will present a case study on native advertising in mobile, focusing on the launch marketing efforts of one of 2013's most anticipated fashion collaborations: Gap and Diane von Furstenburg. Gap and DVF introduced a playful, custom photo editing experience to support their multimedia launch awareness campaign, and enable users to create their own piece of branded, sharable content. Over 900,000 people interacted with Gap and DVF's photo filters, frames and stickers, resulting in over 4.9 million brand engagements, over 600,000 minutes of engagement time and almost 400,000 saved photos. This case study addresses how brands can intimately and non-invasively connect with smartphone users as they engage in one of the most popular smartphone activities: mobile photography.

social media plan of a news outlet - bbc news - Jerrick Frye
The BBC aims to inform, educate and entertain audiences wherever they are and whatever their age through high-quality journalism across TV, radio, online and mobile platforms. Currently, the BBC posts an estimated 2-3 political posts per day on their Facebook page to their international audience. Some options for expanding their social media presence include using Twitter, Spotify, podcasts on platforms like iTunes or Slacker, and RSS feeds to engage more younger audiences internationally. Research shows that podcast listeners tend to be between 18-44 years old, indicating podcasts could be an effective technique for the BBC to reach targeted demographics.

With a staggering 1.3 billion mobile registrations - the equivalent of one for nearly every person in the country - and 640 million internet users, China is a powerful force in today’s media. Giant Internet leaders Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent/WeChat (together called BAT) are China’s answer to Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon. Together with state and some independent media, they are driving a “mobile first” revolution and adding to the technological clout of the world’s biggest Internet market.

Keynote Dialogue: Samantha Barry, Head of Social Media and Senior Director of Strategy, CNN, with Anne-Marie Tomchak, Reporter and Presenter on BBC Trending
The document discusses the history and challenges of regulating media in the UK. Historically, regulation was medium-specific but the internet has complicated this approach. There is a debate between censorship and self-regulation, with moves toward the latter. However, regulating the internet is difficult due to its global nature and borderless sharing of content. The future of regulation may focus more on interactive and video game media as these mediums continue to blur boundaries between platforms.
The document discusses two news stories: the phone hacking scandal involving celebrities in the UK, and accusations that the BBC has a liberal bias in its news coverage. For the phone hacking story, the document examines how different media like radio would cover the story, focusing on celebrity gossip to attract audiences. It also notes some celebrities affected and debates whether they court media attention. For the BBC bias story, it outlines claims that the BBC favors left-wing views and quotes analyses finding liberal bias in its immigration, EU and religion coverage. The document argues the BBC needs to address this perceived bias that has been observed.
This document discusses the rise of citizen journalism in the aftermath of the 2005 London bombings. It notes that ordinary citizens were among the first to report on and distribute information about the bombings through social media sites like YouTube, Flickr, and BBC blogs. The bombings marked a turning point where citizen journalism transitioned from an idea to a reality. While citizen journalism provides instant reporting and personal perspectives, it also raises questions around authenticity, objectivity, and "snaparazzi." The document provides definitions of citizen journalism and mass self-communication, and examines some pros and cons of the phenomenon.
This document discusses citizen journalism and its implications. It begins by outlining learning objectives around understanding citizen journalism. It then presents differing views on citizen journalism, noting both optimism about its potential to democratize the news and pessimism around issues of verification and ethics. Examples are provided of different types of citizen journalists and discussions of how YouTube has influenced the news agenda and blurred boundaries between professionals and audiences.

1) The document discusses various mediums for journalism and their strengths/weaknesses in creating public forums and reporting truth. It addresses television, radio, newspapers, and the internet.
2) It notes the Chancellor of UC Berkeley defined democracy as a compromise between majority and minority views, and this is difficult if issues are framed for "ultimate shock".
3) Examples are given of factual errors in reporting by television networks and talk shows that spread misinformation to large audiences.
1. Newspaper circulations are declining in many Western countries as consumption patterns shift to online media. Younger demographics in particular are turning to blogs which are making inroads into traditional media.
2. The study examined online media and blogs through interviews with journalists and bloggers in the UK, US and Canada. It found that productivity pressures are rising for journalists who must file more stories, leaving less time for in-depth reporting.
3. Some bloggers are breaking stories ahead of traditional journalists and see mainstream journalists as lazy or fearful of challenging the political establishment. However, journalists and bloggers have different standards, levels of accountability, expertise and focuses.
Slides from the talk I gave at the Bath Digital Festival. The talk covered the rise of fake news and misinformation, how technology companies such as Facebook and Google provide the infrastructure and incentives (including the science of attention) for its creation and the role human nature plays in helping fake news spread. The thrust of the talk is this: we have easier access to information than ever before but are we becoming more ignorant as a result?
The document discusses various BBC news coverage of international events including:
- Coverage of the invasion of Iran with a chronological timeline of events and perspectives from different authorities and citizens.

The British news media is experiencing significant changes as print readership and advertising revenue decline. Younger audiences are less engaged with traditional print media. In response, newspapers are developing online content and exploring new business models using paywalls. Local news coverage is threatened as local papers face financial difficulties. Several initiatives aim to replace declining local news coverage, such as the Press Association's local reporting pilot project and the Guardian's launch of local blogs in several cities. Overall, the future of journalism will likely be defined by new online and hyperlocal models of news delivery and new approaches to funding investigative reporting.

CMPF Summer School 2013 for Journalists and Media Practitioners

Presentation to the Assoc. for Journalism EducationPaul Staines
The document discusses blogging and the future of journalism. It provides details about Guido Fawkes' political blog, including its growth in popularity and role in breaking stories. It then covers criticisms of blogging, such as inaccuracies and lack of accountability. However, it argues blogging allows more voices and holds the media and politicians to account. New forms of online news like video blogging will become more prominent as the newspaper industry declines. Overall, it presents an optimistic view of blogging and its role in the changing media landscape.
Citizen journalism allows ordinary people to create and share media content using technologies like smartphones, blogs, and social media. This enables eyewitnesses to report breaking news in real-time, potentially reaching audiences faster than traditional media. However, citizen journalism also faces criticisms like subjective and inaccurate reporting from non-professionals. Mainstream media is adapting by embracing new technologies, but professional journalism is still needed to ensure factual, credible information.
Goodwill Hunting: The end of 'Corporate Social Responsibility'?MRM London
This document discusses how Google's decision to withdraw from China has implications for how companies approach corporate social responsibility. It questions whether simply having a CSR program is enough if a company's actions do not match its rhetoric. The rise of social media gives more power to consumers and activists to hold companies accountable for irresponsible behavior. Companies must genuinely apply social responsibility to all their decisions, not just use CSR as a public relations strategy, if they want to maintain trust and goodwill.
This document discusses the resilience of television despite predictions of its demise in the digital age. While television viewing habits are changing as content is consumed across multiple platforms and devices, television content remains hugely popular. Public service broadcasters in the UK continue to dominate viewing and original programming investment, with around 80% of viewing still occurring live. Television is undergoing significant change but also important continuities, as the traditional broadcasters still command attention. The future of television lies in navigating this balance of change and continuity.

How Social Do You Want Your PR? Six Tips For 2013twofourseven
Presentation given at the CIPR on the subject of 'How Social Do You Want Your PR? It includes six tips on skills PRs need given the change in media consumption by the public and stakeholders.
CIPR Digital Impact - Changing Media and Online Newsroomstwofourseven
This document discusses the evolution of online newsrooms and media consumption. It notes that (1) news outlets are focusing more on verification and curation of breaking news rather than being first, and publishers are recognizing the importance of social media, blogs and user generated content. (2) Audiences now want conversations rather than just being spoken to, and online media consumption is increasing. (3) Journalists now have to investigate, report, engage with crowds, package stories for multiple platforms, and promote to communities. The document provides tips for online newsrooms to have conversations with audiences and optimize content for search engines and social sharing.
Consumer spending on traditional and digital media is declining but media consumption is increasing. According to a survey by KPMG, average monthly spending on traditional media fell from £9.19 to £7 while digital media spending dropped from £1.99 to £0.98 over a six month period. However, time spent consuming media increased, with traditional media time rising from 11 hours 40 minutes to 12 hours 13 minutes and digital media time jumping from 6 hours 14 minutes to 7 hours 28 minutes. The survey highlights ongoing challenges for the media industry in curbing declining revenues as consumers spend less while accessing more free online content.
The Rise Of Social Media And Its Impact On Mainstream Journalismtwofourseven
This document provides a summary of a working paper about how mainstream media organizations in the UK and US are responding to the rise of social media and user-generated content.
The key conclusions are:
1. Participation in social media has exploded in recent years, forcing traditional media to take note.
2. Social media is fundamentally changing breaking news by compressing news cycles and increasing pressure on editors.
3. Journalists are beginning to embrace social media, but on their own terms by marrying new tools with organizational norms through guidelines and training.
4. Social media is creating an extra layer of information and opinion, not replacing journalism, though people increasingly engage with information recommended by friends.
