This document summarizes a research paper about the broadcast of a sexual assault on the Brazilian reality TV show Big Brother Brasil in 2012. The assault occurred between participants Daniel and Monique while they were intoxicated. Producers did not intervene and initially labeled it a "romance." Daniel was later expelled. News coverage and magazine articles reflected societal acceptance of gender violence and victim blaming. Twitter activism criticized the network's handling of the situation. The research analyzed coverage and raised ethical concerns about producers' non-intervention and lack of follow-up on the police investigation.

The document discusses the negative influence that reality television shows are having on society, especially youth. It argues that reality shows are causing people to imitate the behaviors they see and to seek out only superficial qualities. Without government intervention to support more positive programming, this issue will continue and possibly get worse over time as today's youth become tomorrow's leaders. The novel Fahrenheit 451 is presented as a warning of what could happen if such negative influences are left unchecked.

The document outlines the key elements of an action-drama film including genre elements, characters, narrative structure, and opening scene. It describes an opening scene that begins with a fast-paced chase between the hero Lucas Wood and villain Dale Carter, culminating in the death of Lucas' friend Phil which causes him great emotional turmoil. The rest of the film will follow Lucas' decline into revenge-seeking and anti-heroism over the murder, as well as his complex relationship with Carter who is less villainous than first assumed.

"Binders full of Tweets:" Twitter, gender and the 2012 elections
In 2012, women's issues became central to the US elections. Political reporters focused on repeating candidates' assertions rather than providing context and analysis, influenced by Twitter which many used to cover campaigns mobilely. This may have impacted how journalists discussed gender during the elections.

The document discusses research on media framing of the 2013 protests in Brazil. It presents hypotheses that the more people participate in protests, the more legitimizing frames the media will use (H1). Additionally, the broader the collective action frames of the protests, the more legitimizing frames will be used (H2). The study uses computerized content analysis of news websites, blogs, and Twitter to analyze frames over time. Preliminary results suggest the media initially used more confrontational frames but shifted to more legitimizing frames as protest participation and resonance of rights-based frames increased, supporting H1 and H2. Future research is needed comparing media frames to collective action frames used by social movement organizations.

Michael Brown as a news icon
The shooting of Michael Brown by a police officer cued an intense reaction from citizens, officials, and activists. Guided by the theory of indexing during “event-driven” news and the literature on protest coverage, this paper investigates the voices in the news following Brown’s shooting. A content analysis of five newspapers during the first cycle of protests analyzed three aspects of the media coverage of Ferguson. First, we assessed the reliance on official and nonofficial sources in the content published. Second, we tested the relationship between official and nonofficial sources to episodic or thematic coverage. Third, we tested the relationship between sources and the frames of the “protest paradigm,” a pattern of coverage emphasizing violence and deviant behavior. Findings reveal that nonofficial sources dominated the coverage after the shooting. But such sources challenged neither the episodic nature of the coverage nor negative portrayal of protestors. Therefore, our unique linking of the theory of indexing and protest coverage literature reveals that the nonofficial sources’ access is not enough to deter “protest paradigm” coverage. Frames emphasizing violence and clashes with the police were overwhelmingly more present than those emphasizing protestors’ grievances and demands. Our findings also reveal that frames emphasizing deviance prevailed more in the local newspaper than in national outlets. Overall, the predominance of nonofficial sources was not accompanied by thematic stories and critical viewpoints.

TEA Data Presentation - Group 3
The document analyzes test performance data from three Austin high schools: Akins HS, Lanier HS, and LBJ HS. It finds that annual dropout rates are lower overall but spiked for white students. Index 4 (postsecondary readiness) was the lowest rated performance index for all schools. Hispanic students made up the largest population percentage at each school, which all had over 70% economically disadvantaged students. Across the schools, students met or exceeded STAAR standards most in reading and least in math.
TEA Data Presentation - Group 2
The document discusses student dropout rates in the Austin Independent School District from 2010-2013. It found that the annual dropout rate decreased from 2.6% in 2010-2011 to 1.8% in 2012-2013. The dropout rates varied by race, with African American students having the highest rate at 2.7% and Asian and White students having the lowest at 0.8%. Economically disadvantaged students had a dropout rate of 2.1% in 2012-2013. Austin ISD's dropout rates compare favorably to other Texas districts like Houston ISD and Dallas ISD but are lower than San Antonio ISD. Texas has a lower statewide dropout rate than states like California and New York.
TEA Data Presentation - Group 1
This document analyzes teacher turnover rates, teacher-student ratios, and high school graduation rates for Dallas ISD and three neighboring districts: Plano, Garland, and Richardson. The authors collected data from the Texas Education Agency website and created graphs comparing the key metrics across the four districts. They found a correlation between lower teacher turnover rates and higher graduation rates. They also discovered that districts with lower teacher-student ratios tended to have higher graduation rates, with Plano ISD ranking highest in graduation rates and lowest in teacher-student ratio.
Framing Vem pra Rua
This document analyzes how Brazilian media outlets framed the 2013 protests in Brazil on news websites, blogs, and Twitter. It finds that initially, news websites used more "confrontation" frames but later shifted to more "legitimizing" frames as protest participation grew and demands became more generic and resonant. Blogs emphasized "debate" frames from the start. Twitter news accounts followed public support on Twitter, mirroring trends seen in previous Brazilian protests. The rise of a "rights" frame correlated with increased legitimizing coverage, supporting the hypotheses. Further analysis of frame sponsorship and impact on social movements is recommended.

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.

Communication's Next Top Model
This study compared the Differential Gains Model and Communication Mediation Model in predicting political participation and knowledge. The Communication Mediation Model, which posits that interpersonal communication mediates the effects of mass communication, was more supported. Political discussion was found to better serve as a mediator rather than an interaction term. Fox News uniquely predicted participation and knowledge compared to other media. Online discussion also motivated political engagement. Direct media effects were larger than interactive effects on participation, while media reliance effects were larger than media-interaction effects on participation and knowledge.

This document provides guidance for journalists on using social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook for professional purposes. It discusses deciding between personal and publication accounts on Twitter, and tips for building engagement through Twitter.

Resources like Storify, Tweetdeck, and Facebook guides are also referenced for journalists to engage audiences and drive traffic through social media.
Crime, violence, and culture in latin america
Latin America experiences high levels of crime and violence that vary significantly between countries and regions. Homicide rates are especially high in Central America, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico. Crime imposes large economic and political costs on societies through reduced investment, tourism, and productivity. Organized crime networks engage in drug trafficking, extortion, and corruption. Crime culture is reflected in media portrayals, religions like Santa Muerte, and popular music such as narcocorridos that glorify drug traffickers. Effective policy responses to crime in Latin America remain an ongoing challenge.
Bloody Weekend in Manaus - A case study of local TV in Amazonas, Brazil
(1) The document examines the portrayal of crime in local media in Amazonas, Brazil compared to actual crime statistics.
(2) Actual crime rates show most victims of non-lethal crimes are black, younger, and of lower socioeconomic status, while TV shows underrepresent these groups.
(3) TV shows emphasize violent and random crimes more than statistics show, overrepresenting drug crimes and underrepresenting crimes like theft and assault.
(4) The document concludes local media in Amazonas misrepresents the actual victims and nature of crime, potentially worsening public fear and distrust in institutions.

(1) The document analyzes the portrayal of crime in local media in Amazonas, Brazil compared to actual crime statistics.
(2) An analysis of TV crime shows found they depicted more violent and random crimes than actual statistics, which show most victims of non-lethal crimes are black, male, young, and poor. TV shows underrepresented black and female victims.
(3) The conclusion is that local media in Amazonas exaggerates the role of criminals and drugs, while underrepresenting actual victims. This shapes public perceptions in ways that do not reflect reality.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Gender, Violence and the Big Brother Brazil
- 1. #Danielexpulso: Gender Violence, New Media and Big Brother Brazil Rachel Reis Mourao
- 2. Introduction 2006: Lei Maria da Penha passed to specifically protect women's rights Yet, every 12 seconds a woman is raped in the country (2012) Sexual assault is prevalent in popular culture: soap opera plots, comedy sketches and advertising
- 3. Big Brother Brasil 2012 Sexual assault broadcasted live on pay-per-view #DanielExpulso Director decided not to intervene On the next day, edited version was labeled a “romance” Participant was kicked out for “inappropriate behavior”
- 4. “I drank and I do not remember everything that happened. I do not remember, because otherwise I would have woken up and enjoyed it, right? As for the police, I would defend [Daniel], I must put a stop to (the investigation). I do not wish he had been sent home [from the show], he must hate me, but I'm not the one who makes the rules of the program” - Monique Amin
- 5. Why should we care? • Non-scripted television: not fiction, but not news • Producers, participants, news media and audience “[R]eality shows do a remarkable job of reflecting the social construction of gender within dominant culture. In that regard, no matter how contrived the story lines, the stereotypes of women on reality shows appear highly consistent with those seen in other aspects of popular media” (Brown, 2005, p.75).
- 6. “Em briga de marido e mulher, nao se mete a colher” (Between husband and wife, don’t interfere [don’t place a spoon]) Machismo e marianismo
- 7. Qualitative textual analysis Two main Brazilian weekly magazines (Veja and Epoca): 99 articles Nightly newscasts (TV Globo and TV Record national broadcasts) Tweets using the hashtag #DanielExpulso for 24 hours after the incident
- 8. Nightly newscasts Jornal Nacional (Globo): “What happened was not different than other situations in previous seasons of Big Brother Brazil” Jornal da Record: “explosive combination of alcohol and sex”
- 9. Magazines Epoca (Globo): five short articles, none reached out to Monique’s family Veja: cover story, editorial and 8-page story The reaction to a torrid sex scene in BBB shows that, happily, not everything is allowed even when it is announced that privacy is over.
- 10. “no different than what Brazilian television has been broadcasting for decades in its soap operas and talk shows” “this was a matter best suited for the private sphere” “announced tragedy after heavy incentive for sex and voyeurism” (Veja Magazine, 2012)
- 11. Twitter #DanielExpulso Culture jamming led by Globo actresses Advertising impact “inappropriate behavior”
- 12. Ethical considerations No follow-up with the police investigation: no information available on the outcome Mainstream coverage: private sphere natural outcome Producers and director also opted for non-intervention Limited victim-blaming not even a crime Twitter: cyberactivism and culture jamming continued pressure online and with advertisers.
