Political satire and humor is used in several areas of communication like public address, mass communication, and rhetorical criticism. It is important because it relieves tension around serious political topics and issues while blending humor. However, studies have shown mixed results on whether political satire actually impacts people's perceptions of politicians and voting behaviors. While some research found it can influence attitudes, other studies have found political satire has little to no effect on how people ultimately vote.

Conflict Talk
This document analyzes conflict talk in political debates and interviews on television. In political debates, politicians try to discredit their opponents through opposition sequences moderated by a mediator. Self-display is a goal, as politicians aim to construct appealing public images while complying with debating rules. Political interviews see journalists as "impartial provocateurs" who try to elicit information and hold politicians accountable in a challenging manner. Politicians risk damaging their image if questions are seen as personal attacks rather than in the context of journalism. The relationship between media and politics is adversarial yet synergistic, as both parties benefit from different forms of talk, including conflict talk.
Album advert analysis
The document provides album advertisements for Wretch 32 and AJ Tracey. For Wretch 32's album, the summary is:
1) The advertisement features Wretch 32 prominently to promote his image and popularity as he was not well known.
2) The urban font, colors, and clothing are used to appeal to Wretch 32's target audience of people living in rough urban areas of London.
3) The darker background contrasts with lighter colors and graphics, perhaps representing the negative urban environment but also hope that Wretch 32 brings.
For AJ Tracey's EP, the summary is:
1) The black background contrasts with bright cartoon images that each represent important influences on AJ Tracey like football
World War Z - Film Poster Annotation
The document analyzes a movie poster that depicts a man overlooking a destroyed city landscape. Helicopters are seen flying away from the scene of destruction. The man is positioned in the center of the poster, carrying an assault rifle, suggesting he plays an important role in the film and has power over the city. Details like his rolled up sleeves imply determination, though his face is not shown, creating uncertainty around his character. The text on the poster follows rules of graphic design and uses an unusual font and red lettering, hinting at themes of seriousness, danger, and ambiguity in the film's plot.
SN- Lecture 1
This document summarizes the key events and factors that led to the 1989 revolution in East Germany. It began with peaceful protests in September 1989 in Leipzig that grew significantly over time. Despite an order to shoot protesters, the military did not intervene in October. Honecker resigned in October and the Berlin Wall fell in November. Participation grew rapidly from thousands to hundreds of thousands as people gained confidence. The document examines why using theories of individual behavior and networks. It suggests that high motivation to enact political change, moral obligations, social encouragement from friends critical of the regime, and low costs of participating, like joining Monday demonstrations, encouraged widespread involvement despite risks of repression. Networks of trust among friends were important for sharing political views and

Seven 1995 1
The document analyzes a scene from the 1995 film "Seven" through textual evidence and findings about its codes and conventions. It summarizes that the lack of a human voice at the beginning creates mystery and tension. Low key lighting is also used to obscure details and add to the mysterious atmosphere. The first character seen is wearing a suit, implying high status, while another character carries a gun, denoting power. The scene establishes that investigators are dealing with a dead body, as indicated by the blood shown. Various camera shots like medium shots and close-ups are used to reveal clues and emphasize important objects or facial expressions that advance the plot and set the dark and serious mood.
IST FINAL.
The document provides descriptions of various camera shots used in a film, including long shots, mid shots, close ups, and low angle shots. The shots are used to introduce characters, emphasize their importance, create suspense, show characters looking around an empty area, depict characters walking and looking for people, capture a fall, and show characters deciding to enter a passageway.
Analysis of the big knife title sequence
The document analyzes the title sequence of a film, suggesting that the wonky font, plain text on a black background, lack of color, and constant close-ups portray the mental instability and psychological turmoil of the protagonist. These elements also foreshadow dark and ominous events that will destroy the protagonist's life and lead him into an inescapable psychological pain.
Poster questionnaire
This document is a questionnaire about design preferences for a movie poster for a social realism, drama/thriller film called "The 3rd Man". It asks about typeface, color scheme, use of photography vs graphics, impact of photographs, influence of posters, release date placement, and recommended shot for the poster image.
Documentary conventions
The document discusses documentary filmmaking conventions used in The Simpsons. It analyzes how interviews are framed using rule of thirds, with lighting focused on the subject and a dark background. Graphics are included to provide context on the interview subject. Shot variety and angles are used to make the documentary more interesting. The background setting reflects the personality and topic of the interview subject. Vox pops or spontaneous street interviews reflect public views.
Test shots
This document summarizes 4 photos from a photo shoot. The first two photos show a band having fun in a studio, displaying their individual styles. The third photo shows a woman deep in thought against a brick wall in an urban setting. The fourth photo features an artist in medium long shot in a location using black, brown, and tan colors. The fifth black and white photo shows a woman making direct eye contact, appearing serious about her music but vulnerable.
How does your production represent particular social groups
Our production represents multiple social groups and aspects of society through its characters. Characters like the police detectives are shown to have relatively high social status through their formal attire and jobs, though one detective seems to have slightly higher status than the other. The drunk man at the bar clearly has a very low social position. The status of the main character Booth is ambiguous, but he seems to be between the detectives and drunk man. The femme fatale character challenges conventions by having ambiguous yet potentially powerful status instead of just being an object for the male gaze.
Picture analysis
The photograph shows three different scenes: 1) German boys saluting Hitler in the 1930s-40s, 2) WWII soldiers smiling together despite fighting, and 3) men dumping moonshine as others watch unhappily in 1940s US. The photographer aimed to convey German youth's support for Hitler, camaraderie among soldiers, and authorities asserting power over bootleggers. The photos provide historical insights but also raise questions about the subjects' later lives and experiences.
John legend analysis
John Legend maintains a consistent black and white branding across his music videos, tour posters, and album covers. This color scheme fits with the soul music genre by creating a somber feel. Legend does not make eye contact with the camera, appearing deep in thought, which gives him an emotional aura that female audiences can relate to. He dresses smartly in mostly black clothing, conveying meanings of mystery, danger, and sadness that draw in female fans by intriguing them or allowing them to feel empathy. This coordinated image across Legend's different media establishes him as a serious artist focused on his music rather than fame.
Mise en - scene
The mise-en-scene in the shot effectively uses symbolism. The spotlight on the standing man portrays his significance and power, with its circular shape symbolizing imprisonment. Lines breaking the circle suggest the victim's fragmentation and feeling trapped. The room's frame-within-a-frame adds to the sense of entrapment. The transparency of the other character through dull colors shows he is less important. The standing man's shadow on the floor reflects multiple similar figures, portraying existing or upcoming power.
Target Audience Paragraph
My target audience for an action/adventure film would be males ages 16-30 from lower/middle class suburb locations, as stereotypically males that age enjoy such films and those demographics offer a sense of escapism from repetitive jobs or unemployment through the exciting farmer's life portrayed.
Project x movie posters
The document provides an analysis of a movie poster. It notes that the poster uses a consistent font and color scheme throughout, with one element in red to connote danger. It aims to appeal to teenagers, as seen from the depiction of a wild teenage party without adults. Multiple details are included to allow time for readers to fully understand the poster in places like buses or newspapers. The poster features blurred background partygoers and a purple color scheme linked to themes of the movie. A long shot depicts the extent of the party and damaged surroundings. No major stars are featured to appeal to wider audiences. The tagline uses second-person language to make viewers want to experience such a wild party. Overall, the analysis determines the genre
Mind+map+(2)
The black color on the front and back album covers shows the band wants to be seen as leaders in their music genre, which could make them seem overconfident. Earthy brown colors imply the band is pure, young and confident but also possibly depressed or lacking emotion. Using only white font that obscures the song titles suggests the band is uninterested in their music standing out and prefers blending in with others.
Media task 2
The document discusses how the media product portrays teenagers. It represents teenagers as scruffily dressed, wearing hoodies to hide their identity, and sitting in an agitated manner that makes them seem violent. These negative portrayals leave the audience viewing the main character, Nate, as a potential antagonist. Similarly, characters in other films and real teenagers depicted during riots are shown as violent, intimidating, and dangerous while dressed scruffily. Overall, the document argues that the media product conforms to negative representations of teenagers as unnerving and scary that are common in other films and real life.
How did i attract
This document discusses the target audience for a film called "REWIND". The target audience is middle class individuals ages 17-25 who regularly go to movies on weekends. Males are more likely to be attracted to "REWIND" than females because males stereotypically prefer action and suspenseful genres. Certain imagery and font choices in the film's marketing would appeal more to males than females in the target age range.
Spiral of Silence
The theory talks about the relationship between minority and majority of people and how they express themselves. It proves minority people keep silent on their views on any particular subject.

Political satire and humor is used in several areas of communication like public address, mass communication, and rhetorical criticism. It can be found in political parodies, cartoons, and soft news programming. While some studies suggest exposure to political satire can influence views, other research finds it has little effect on voting decisions. Overall, political satire enhances discussion of issues but does not ultimately impact how people vote, as voters rely on other credentials about candidates before being exposed to satire.
Dissertation presentation: POLITICAL SATIRE AND POLITICAL NEWS: ENTERTAINING,...
This document summarizes a dissertation presentation on the political satire show The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (TDS). It discusses two key questions: 1) How TDS uses its comedic narrative as a vehicle for political news and 2) How TDS's audience decodes its messages. It reviews literature on TDS promoting critical thinking and political activism. The presentation analyzes TDS episodes and compares its coverage to mainstream media. It finds TDS has limited potential for multiple interpretations and its audience tends to accept the preferred reading without negotiation. Further research could explore audience decoding of non-comedic TDS segments.
Designing Teams for Emerging Challenges
The document discusses designing teams and processes to adapt to changing needs. It recommends structuring teams so members can work within their competencies and across projects fluidly with clear roles and expectations. The design process should support the team and their work, and be flexible enough to change with team, organization, and project needs. An effective team culture builds an environment where members feel free to be themselves, voice opinions, and feel supported.
UX, ethnography and possibilities: for Libraries, Museums and Archives
1) The document discusses how the University of York Library has used various user experience (UX) techniques like ethnographic observation and interviews to better understand user needs and behaviors.
2) Some changes implemented based on UX findings include installing hot water taps, changing hours, and adding blankets - aimed at improving the small details of user experience.
3) The presentation encourages other libraries, archives and museums to try incorporating UX techniques like behavioral mapping and cognitive interviews to inform design changes that enhance services for users.

CONFLICT TALK
This document analyzes conflict talk in political debates and interviews on television. In political debates, politicians try to discredit opponents through opposition sequences moderated by a mediator. Self-display is a goal as politicians aim to construct appealing images while complying with debating rules. Political interviews see journalists as "impartial provocateurs" who try to make politicians say something regretful or revealing. Politicians risk damaging their image if questions are seen as personal attacks rather than in the context of journalism. The relationship between media and politics is described as adversarial but synergistic, as both parties benefit from different forms of talk, including conflict talk.
Ncfef nc next conf shaheen
The document outlines how social media has transformed political campaigning and engagement. It discusses how pre-social media, politicians relied on methods like door-knocking, newspapers and television to communicate. Now, social networks allow two-way engagement and people regularly get campaign news from platforms like Facebook. Six in ten Americans use social media, and these users are politically active by liking, posting and sharing issues. The rise of smartphones allows on-the-go access to political content and fact-checking. Younger voters are dual-screen, watching debates on TV while engaging online. Overall, social media has become a mainstream venue for political discussion and activism.
I love Big Bird
This document analyzes journalists' use of humor on Twitter during the first 2012 US presidential debate:
- 17.9% of tweets from 430 political journalists analyzing the debate contained attempts at humor. Newspaper reporters had a slightly higher percentage.
- The use of humor was only positively correlated with retweets, not other Twitter activities like mentions or hyperlinks.
- While journalists traditionally restrain humor for objectivity, Twitter allows more transparency and engagement with audiences. Humor on the platform marks a break from strict reporting practices and could challenge elite news discourse.

UNIT 3- Political Opinion.ppt
Political opinion is shaped by various media such as news, talk shows, commentary, cartoons, and satire. Media plays a key role in agenda setting and framing issues to influence people's political views. Talk shows provide a platform for discussing issues and allow citizens to learn about politicians and parties. Political commentary analyzes current events but aims to not overtly change opinions. Cartoons and satire use humor to subtly shape perceptions and expose absurdity. While informing people, some media prioritize certain voices and issues over others in the ongoing effort to impact political discourse and opinions in a democracy.
political cynicism & mass media culture
This document discusses how political cynicism is related to mass media coverage. It argues that the mainstream media's focus on drama and negativity contributes to a "spiral of cynicism" where politicians feel they must provide cynical stories to get coverage and the public becomes more cynical about the political system as a result of constant negative news. Additionally, the use of "news frames" and sensationalism by media can influence perceptions of politics. Sources of political humor are also examined in terms of their potential effects on cynicism levels. Statistics on current public opinions about politicians are provided.

The document discusses different views of the relationship between the media, the state, and the political process. It outlines two main views:
1) The pluralist view sees the media as independent from the state and reflecting a diversity of views in society.
2) The neo-Marxist and Marxist views see the media as maintaining the status quo and serving the interests of the powerful by distorting reality and justifying inequality. They view the media's role as reinforcing the existing social and political order.
3) A post-modernist perspective maintains that media coverage of events like wars can construct the events in a way that calls their actual occurrence into question.

Jamie Slater is a former comedian who now voices Waldo, a cartoon character that interviews and humiliates people on a satirical TV program. The producer, Jack Napier, decides to make Waldo a candidate for local office to boost ratings. This devastates Jamie but reveals potential in politics. The document argues that media, technology, satire and entertainment can manipulate politics and discussions, trivializing issues and spreading nihilism. While new technologies can increase civic participation, they also encourage entertainment-focused and emotional perspectives that blur private and public discourse. This risks replacing reasoned debate with amusing but empty criticism.

For Social Media Week 2013 in Washington, D.C., Pew Internet Researcher Aaron Smith presented the latest data from Pew Research Center national surveys to engage the politically savvy and tech-obsessed peole in DC who have noticed this shift in political life, taking a look at the raw data behind the new political process, and how it relates to our political infrastructure.Democracies in Crisis
This document discusses political participation and trends in democracies. It notes that while voting is crucial, there are also unconventional forms of participation like protests. Recent trends show declines in voting and trust in political institutions. However, this civic malaise may not signify that democracies are in crisis. Democracies are adapting to changing interests and ways citizens get informed and participate, through new forms like interest groups and media. Overall, democracies may be revitalizing rather than declining.
Lessons from the front line
That was the election that saw many lessons learned about modern political campaigning and communications. Voters had more influence than ever through online tools. While large spending by the Tories failed to convert to political gains, conversations on social media and in the media mattered more. New forms of content like videos and interactive formats worked better than posters or crowd-sourced ideas. Live televised debates electrified voters but social media mostly reached the converted. Ultimately, British voters remained unpredictable.
Week 7.2 political communication
This document discusses political communication and the role of mass media in a democratic society. It covers how democracy originated in ancient Greece and how political communication is now transmitted through mass media. It evaluates whether political information available to citizens is useful, sufficient, and trustworthy. The document also discusses how media can act as a watchdog on government or collaborate with government. Additionally, it addresses how media covers political leaders and issues around privacy. The role of media in terrorism and advocating for minority groups is debated. Standards for evaluating political messages are provided.
PS450 Final Paper
This document summarizes research on the impact of satirical news shows like The Daily Show compared to traditional news broadcasts. It discusses several studies that found:
1) Satirical news shows enhance viewer engagement and absorption compared to non-humorous news due to their use of humor, parody, and absurdism.
2) While time spent on substantive issues is similar, satirical shows spend less time on "hype" indicators like polls and horse-race coverage, focusing more on actual issues.
3) Younger viewers are more likely to watch satirical news and develop political views through their interpretations and discussions compared to repetitive traditional broadcasts.
The document concludes satirical news makes viewers more informed citizens by enhancing information
Preproposal Presentation Dn
The document summarizes literature on the political satire news show The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (TDS). It discusses how scholars debate whether TDS encourages critical thinking and political activism in its audience. Some argue TDS provides an informative critique of mainstream media and politics. Others argue the data is inconclusive or that TDS should be viewed as "fake news" and does not meaningfully contribute to political understanding or participation. The document also outlines the author's objectives and methodology to analyze how TDS' comedic narrative may limit its ability to promote critical thinking.
Media Society Politics
This document discusses various topics related to social media and politics, including how people interact with politicians online, the impact of polls and misinformation, and self-censorship on Facebook. It also addresses how frustration on social media can carry over into real life and whether partisan identification drives online content. Additional sections cover selective exposure and how the media can influence audiences through agenda setting, priming and framing. The roles of journalists are discussed in relation to gatekeeping, disseminating information, investigating issues, and mobilizing the public. Models of journalism and differences between media in authoritarian and democratic regimes are also outlined.
Newsjester
This document discusses the merger between media and politics through political satire and humor. It explores how shows like The Daily Show and South Park engage with political issues and can both increase and decrease political knowledge and engagement among viewers. While some research has found these shows may foster cynicism and decrease voting, other research shows they can help viewers better understand politics in a entertaining way and gain basic knowledge to then further engage with more traditional news coverage. The blending of hard news and infotainment is also discussed, with some news organizations experimenting with incorporating more humorous or satirical elements into their programming.
Political hypocrisy
This document provides a lengthy summary and analysis of the concept of political hypocrisy. It discusses how hypocrisy has become pervasive in modern politics and has led to increased public distrust. It explores philosophical perspectives on hypocrisy from thinkers like Hobbes and explores how hypocrisy can be a necessary part of politics when done in moderation. However, excessive or damaging hypocrisy that misrepresents a politician's character or positions can undermine trust in the political system. The document also discusses how politics may be transitioning to a "magical realist" phase where the line between fact and fiction is blurred, due in part to the role of advanced technology and media.
Predicting Elections with Twitter
This is a presentation given at the ICWSM 2010 in Washington, DC (www.icwsm.org). You can watch a video of the presentation on videolectures.net
Twitter is a microblogging website where users read and write millions of short messages on a variety of topics every day. This study uses the context of the German federal election to investigate whether Twitter is used as a forum for political deliberation and whether online messages on Twitter validly mirror offline political sentiment. Using LIWC text analysis software, we conducted a content-analysis of over 100,000 messages containing a reference to either a political party or a politician. Our results show that Twitter is indeed used extensively for political deliberation. We find that the mere number of messages mentioning a party reflects the election result. Moreover, joint mentions of two parties are in line with real world political ties and coalitions. An analysis of the tweets’ political sentiment demonstrates close correspondence to the parties' and politicians’ political positions indicating that the content of Twitter messages plausibly reflects the offline political landscape. We discuss the use of microblogging message content as a valid indicator of political sentiment and derive suggestions for further research.
Frisk May 2015: Election
Hi there. Welcome to the latest Frisk special!
We’ve got a rather chewy edition for you this month. You see, there’s a general election happening - you’ll have spotted this in the press, unless you live in a Grand Designs- style eco-bunker with no TV and patchy wi-fi. It’s kind of a big deal.
The Big Three – Cameron limbering up in the blue corner, Miliband boxing clever in red, Clegg strapping on his yellow gloves – have been set for a rumble for some time, closing in on the last corner of the ring where Farage, Sturgeon, Wood and Bennett are fighting for the title of ‘fourth credible option’. A subjective notion, of course.
Free democratic elections are the ultimate expression of modern fairness – if you don’t put an X in the box, you don’t have the right to complain about whoever’s in power, right? Well, that may or may not be the case, as voter apathy continues to plague the ballot boxes (or rather, totally leave the ballot boxes alone while going to the pub instead to complain about how ‘they’re all the same’ or ‘none of them are worth voting for’) – so will this general election be any different to those of recent-ish years? Have the televised leaders’ debates and massive social media buzz turned this into our first truly digital election? Are people better informed today, or just angrier and more annoyed? This report aims to give you an eye-opening view on the nature of the whole hoopla.
Flipping through these colourful pages you’ll find insight from all corners of Leo Burnett London – what politics can learn from advertising (and vice versa), the culture of voting as it applies to women and to youth, a data angle, a social media angle, and a retrospective snapshot from the Creatives. There’s much to intrigue here.
I do hope that you enjoy what you read. If so – or indeed, if not – be sure to fire some feedback into the Twittersphere: the handle’s @LeoBurnettLDN.
See you next month for more of this punchy wordism.

Policy-media interaction model - Prepared by Fiza Zia Ul Hannan
Bennett’s hypothesis contradicts the popular image of the media as a watchdog; it constantly looks over the shoulders of the ones in power. However, Robinson’s model uses the indexing theory as a foundation but still opens up for instances when the media may assert influence on a policy decision (lapdog).

- 13. Political Satire is Important Because it… Relieves tension Blends both serious topics and humor Shows theflaws in political campaigns and government officials without providing a solution
- 14. Criticisms DOES POLITICAL SATIRE AND HUMOR EFFECT THE PERCEPTION OF THOSE WHO VIEW IT?
- 15. YES! Some studies suggest that exposure to soft news programs and other types of political satire can give the average person a false sense of understanding of complex political issues
- 16. One study showed that exposure to Tina Fey’s impersonation of Sarah Palin; showed changes in attitudes towards the potential Vice President
- 17. &NO! Other studies have proven these claims to be false. Some studies found that the acts and presentation of the Vice President have very little to no effect on presidential voting of citizens
- 18. Presenter’s Choice Political Satire enhances political issues, but does not ultimately effect the voters choice in electing an official. The credentials a voter uses to choose a political official exist before satire even comes into play.
