Libel, defamation, and slander all involve the intentional spreading of untrue statements about a person to harm their reputation. Libel refers to untrue written statements, while slander refers to untrue oral statements. Defamation is a broad term that includes both libel and slander, and it can be both a criminal and civil offense. Though similar, libel, defamation, and slander differ based on whether the harmful statements are written or spoken. All three aim to damage a person's reputation through false information.

Definitions
Defamation is any false communication that harms a person's reputation through disparaging statements. It can be a criminal or civil offense and includes both libel, which is written defamation such as in publications, and slander, which is spoken defamation. Libel is considered more serious legally than slander due to the potential of wider distribution of written statements. Slander involves telling untruths about someone to others and can be grounds for a civil lawsuit, with damages typically limited to actual losses unless malicious intent can be proven.
Nonverbal Expressions of Power and Dominance
Nonverbal expressions, such as handshakes, gestures, posture, and head movements can communicate power and social dominance. Small cues like firm handshakes, direct eye contact, and interrupting others in conversation subtly influence how authoritative a person seems. Historically, wearing certain colors like purple and red were used to distinguish social status and leadership. While nonverbal cues can help navigate social hierarchies, they are also open to misinterpretation between genders and could be viewed as manipulation if used solely to gain advantage over others.

Politeness theory asserts that individuals use politeness strategies to save face in social interactions. There are two types of politeness - negative politeness, which minimizes imposition on others, and positive politeness, which builds solidarity. A real estate agent discussed how she uses strategies like silence, acknowledgement, humor and boundary-setting to politely handle complaints, requests and other face-threatening acts from clients in order to maintain relationships. Politeness is important in many social contexts to avoid embarrassing or pressuring others.
POLITENESS
The document discusses politeness and defines it as actions taken to counteract face-threatening acts. It summarizes Brown and Levinson's politeness theory, which is based on the concept of "face" or social identity. The theory outlines two types of face - negative and positive - and describes four politeness strategies - bald on-record, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record language. It also discusses Accommodation Theory and how convergence and divergence relate to social differences. Finally, it notes some gender differences in how politeness is expressed.
Politeness strategies
This document discusses the concept of politeness in language. It begins by defining politeness as having good manners and respect for others. It then addresses some challenges in studying politeness across cultures, noting that apologies or requests can have different meanings. Politeness is used to prevent threats to one's public self-image. Levinson's strategies of politeness are outlined, including positive politeness to connect with others and negative politeness to respect independence. The relationship between linguistic forms and politeness is explored, with references provided for further reading.
Discussion on the Notion of Politeness in a Cross - Cultural Context
The document discusses politeness in a cross-cultural context between English and Indonesian. It explains that politeness takes different forms across cultures. For example, behaviors considered polite in one culture may be impolite in another. The document also summarizes Brown and Levinson's influential politeness theory, which analyzes how people use language to maintain face, or public self-image, through positive and negative politeness strategies during interactions.
Evaluation question 5
The document discusses how the filmmakers attracted their audience for a psychological thriller. They used teenage characters to appeal to a young audience and make it easier for them to relate to the story, as many thrillers feature teenagers. A female character was chosen as the "victim" to make the story more striking, as females are often portrayed as innocent and vulnerable. The plot also helped attract the audience.
Solidarity and politnes
- The document discusses the concepts of solidarity, politeness, and address terms from a linguistic perspective.
- Historically, the use of "tu" versus "vous" in French indicated social relationships, with "vous" signaling respect between upper classes and asymmetry signaling power dynamics. Symmetrical use of address terms now indicates equality and familiarity.
- Addressing someone by title, last name, or asymmetrically signals inequality, while mutual first names indicate equality and familiarity. The more powerful person usually initiates a switch to first names.

Busniness Communication
Communication styles can be assertive, aggressive, passive, or passive-aggressive. They are affected by gender differences in communication patterns. Women generally prefer conversation for rapport building and compromise, while men talk to preserve independence and status and are more directive. These gender differences stem from distinct socialization as children and result in women prioritizing intimacy through closeness in conversation, while men prioritize status and independence through competition. As a result, communication between men and women can resemble cross-cultural interaction due to differing goals, rules and interpretations.
Cross cultural communication-translating nonverbal cues

It concludes that each culture has unique ways of communicating non-verbally.
Representation charlie
The document discusses representation in a teaser trailer for a film. It focuses on appealing to a young adult target audience by featuring young actors in relatable ways. A variety of characters of the same age are represented to give audiences different options to relate to. The production company is responsible for the representations in the film.

Question 2- As Media Evaluation
The filmmaker aimed to represent young adults aged 16-25 by including relatable characters. The main character Jack Steele is meant to depict the difficulties of feeling trapped and unsupported that some young people experience. Scenes of the character confined in an enclosed space with a "baddie" are intended to symbolize feelings of being unable to escape one's circumstances. However, the film does not conform with negative media portrayals of young people as antisocial, aggressive, or dangerous, but rather aims to offer a more positive and accurate representation.

Evaluation Question Two
The document discusses how different social groups are represented in a film called "Bullied". It identifies three main social groups portrayed: the mean girl, the popular group, and the outcast. The mean girl is shown through her use of drugs/alcohol and abusive behavior. The popular girl is depicted through her girly clothes and confident posture. The main character, who is the outcast, dresses unconventionally and acts shyly. Since the film is from the outcast's point of view, the mean girl and popular girl are portrayed negatively while the outcast is shown positively to relate to the audience.
Evaluation Question 2
Our media product represents young adults and teenagers by featuring a teenage detective as the lead character to appeal to that age group. Typically, teenage characters are portrayed as unintelligent or involved in the crime, but our character subverts this by being an intelligent character able to help solve the crime. The gender representations conform to genre conventions, with the male character portrayed as intelligent and unemotional, and the female character as the victim, aligning with theories that promote subordinate social roles for women.

Evaluation Question 2
The document discusses representations and stereotypes of different social groups in media. It analyzes the portrayals of young males, an unknown character, females, news reporters, and locations in a media product. Young males are shown as uninformed and uninterested. The unknown character takes precautions to hide their identity while carrying out a thought-out plan. Females are not included because they typically do not have main roles in action films. News reporters follow some stereotypes with a male voice dominating over the female voice. Locations are used to imply the social status of characters, with a rural town suggesting the main character is unimportant.
Audience
The document discusses the concept of audience from several perspectives. It begins with a definition of audience and a brief history of how audience analysis has evolved from a focus on passive reception to more active engagement. Several theories of audience are then outlined, including Maslow's hierarchy of needs and uses and gratifications theory. The document concludes by noting that audiences are continually growing and changing, and their need to communicate and relate to performances or media is fundamental.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

Libel/Defamation/slander
- 2. What is Libel? Libel is to publish in print (including pictures), writing or broadcast through radio, television or film, something untrue about a person which will do harm to that person or their reputation. This is usually intentionally; aiming to bring the person down, making them look ridicule and trying to get the public to hate them. This relates to defamation as defamation includes libel and slander- slander is similar to libel as slander does exactly what libel does except it is spoken rather than written.
- 3. What is Defamation Defamation is any intentional false communication, either written or spoken, that harms a person's reputation; decreases the respect, regard, or confidence in which a person is held; or encourages judgmental, aggressive, or disagreeable opinions or feelings against a person which humiliates them. Defamation can be both a criminal or civil charge. It includes both written statements, known as libel which I mentioned before and spoken statements, called slander.
- 4. What is Slander Slander is when someone orally tells one or more people something untrue about another person which harms the individuals reputation. Slander is a civil wrong (tort) and can be the basis for a complaint. Slander relates to defamation which is mentioned above as having to defame Someone includes slander. Slander is also very similar to libel as libel does exactly what slander does except it is written rather than spoken.
- 5. Libel/Defamation/Slander -Libel, defamation and slander are all very similar as they: Bring people down by untrue statements Tend to harm a person’s reputation Often try to decrease the persons respect and Confidence by doing this. REMEMBER although they are very similar, they are not the same thing !
