Broadcast Ownership: The ongoing struggle for equal access by women and minor...Dr. Aitza Haddad Nuñez
This study takes a critical empirical approach to examine an ongoing struggle by women and racial minorities to own broadcast radio and television companies in United States. The study focuses on a recent ownership report published by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in spring 2014 to illustrate the status of the women and minorities’ ownership as a way of advancing the argument that policy reform is long overdue. In short, the present analysis of the Spring 2014 FCC Ownership Report aims to provide a clearer and broader picture of who owns the media, and according to communication theories and discourse analysis, the creation of language and knowledge. The goal is to become a starting point of an in-depth exploration of why is the current media not serving the unique set of needs, claims, and values of all groups in a society.
The document discusses the history of media in Latin America, from government control in the 1930s-1960s to commercialization and privatization in the 1970s-1990s which concentrated ownership among elites. It proposes solutions based on Keynesian economics like ensuring a balance between commercial and public interests, developing community media, and bridging the digital divide to empower the poor and expand access to information.
Karen Kasold: Media Globalization And Inequalitymerlyna
The document discusses several topics related to media globalization and inequality, including how mass media can damage public discourse, the rise of perception management techniques, debates around new international information orders, threats to a global public sphere, and issues of market-driven media and ensuring access to communication for all. It examines the power of elites over media institutions and outlines principles in the People's Communication Charter to transform global communications and protect rights.
The document discusses the history and evolution of journalism from its early days in print and radio to modern television, online, and investigative journalism. It covers key developments like the rise of radio in the 1920s-1940s, the shift to FM in the late 1970s, and how the internet has allowed for more immediate updates and added multimedia. The document also examines differences between print and TV news and debates around objectivity versus encouraging civic participation. Ethics, democracy, and the relationship between journalism and the public interest are also addressed.
American media consists of television, radio, newspapers, magazines and websites. The first newspaper was published in 1690. In 1920, Westinghouse launched the first commercially licensed radio station. Television became commercialized in 1941. Major newspapers include the Washington Post and LA Times. Television networks like CNN, Fox and major radio stations influence public opinion. While freedom of speech is protected, the US government can impose reasonable restrictions and American media aims to shape international views in its favor through news coverage.

It also discusses agenda-setting theory and the media's role in shaping public opinion. Finally, it outlines different models of the media's role in democracy, including as a watchdog, civic forum, or means to empower various groups in society.
This document summarizes a report that examines how 14 democratic countries fund and protect the independence of public media. It finds that countries generally use several approaches: multi-year funding to lessen political pressure; structures that link public media directly to audiences; charters that require public-interest content while restricting government influence; and independent agencies/boards as buffers between media and governments. As a result, public media provide more public affairs coverage and viewpoints than commercial media. However, countries vary in how well their systems are funded and insulated from political interference. The report provides models for the U.S. to consider strengthening its own modest public media system.
The document discusses several topics related to politics and the media, including:
1) Different views on the role and purpose of the media, such as providing what the public wants versus balancing public interests.
2) How journalists and media outlets determine what issues to cover and how to frame them, as well as potential biases.
3) The functions of the media, including serving as a link between government and the public, investigating issues, and acting as a watchdog.
4) How groups and politicians use the media in campaigns and how the media can influence elections.
5) The history and development of different media forms such as print, radio, television, and the internet.
Audience Construction: Race, Ethnicity and Segmentation in Popular MediaThink Ethnic
This document summarizes Oscar H. Gandy Jr.'s paper on audience construction with regards to race, ethnicity, and segmentation in popular media. It discusses four main perspectives on how audiences are constructed: as publics, markets, commodities, and victims. Segmenting audiences based on attributes like race and ethnicity is a social practice that both reflects and reinforces group definitions and boundaries over time. While segmentation is usually explored from the perspective of powerful actors, individuals also recognize themselves in these constructed segments.
This document contains summaries of multiple academic papers presented at a conference. The first paper discusses Alan Lomax's 1933 recordings of prison inmates in the American South in search of "authentic" African American folk music. It argues that Lomax reinforced stereotypes and helped appropriate Southern folk culture for urban audiences. The second paper explores conceptualizations of "ecological thinking" in various cultures and traditions throughout history that emphasized human interconnectedness. The third paper investigates how models of science communication can inform criteria for analyzing and improving science journalism practice.
This document provides an overview and required readings for a seminar on political journalism and civic communications. It discusses the key concepts of:
1) The "crisis of civic communications" which some argue stems from the commercialization of media, changes in the relationship between politicians and journalists, and the decline of public service broadcasting.
2) Different models of public service broadcasting and debates around its role in democracy. While some argue PSB is important for informed citizens and public discourse, others see it as a barrier to competition.
3) The role of political journalism in democracy and debates around its objectivity, balance, and whether it has declined amid new pressures and formats like citizen journalism. Overall the document outlines many

Cyberfeminism in Latin America and beyond - University of LeedsCarolina Matos
This document summarizes a presentation on feminism, development, and online activism in the digital age. It discusses how new technologies have enabled transnational feminist activism and the rise of feminism in the global South. It also examines cyberfeminism and how women use the internet for social change. The document then focuses on a case study of feminist movements in Latin America and Brazil, highlighting campaigns like #NotHim and struggles for gender equality, democracy, and women's rights. It concludes by emphasizing the challenges that remain but the commitment of younger women to advance gender justice through digital media and political representation.
50th anniversary Lasa - Latin American Studies conferenceCarolina Matos
This document summarizes a lecture on gender representations in Brazil given by Dr. Carolina Matos. It discusses how Brazilian femininity has been constructed through colonial stereotypes of Brazilian women as exotic and sexual. While Brazil has made progress in gender equality through policies and increased political representation of women, challenges remain such as high rates of femicide and lack of access to abortion. The document argues that achieving global gender justice requires addressing both economic issues of redistribution as well as cultural attitudes of recognition through strengthening transnational feminist networks and diversity in media representations.
University of Helsinki 4 - Internet for the public interestCarolina Matos
The document discusses the use of the internet in Latin America and Brazil specifically. It covers several topics:
- The growth of internet access in Latin America, though a digital divide still exists between richer and poorer citizens. In Brazil, internet use has grown faster than cable/satellite TV.
- The internet's potential to promote transparency and participation, but some argue it does not necessarily improve civic life. Government efforts in Brazil have aimed to increase connectivity and digital inclusion.
- Limits to the internet as a public medium due to lack of mass access and concentration of major providers. The 2010 Brazilian election saw extensive use of the internet for campaigning.
- The Brazilian blogosphere has grown as a counter to
The media in the United States has gone through several changes throughout history. Early on, the press was seen as important for public discourse and debate. However, over time media became big business, with large companies owning most newspapers and radio/TV stations. Deregulation in the 1980s and 1990s led to even more media consolidation, with just a few huge corporations now controlling around 90% of the market. This raises questions about whether the needs of the public are still being served over pure profit.
The document discusses the media and globalization. It defines different types of media such as print media (newspapers, magazines) and electronic media (radio, television, films). It then defines globalization as the integration of economies, societies and cultures through communication, transportation and trade. The media plays a key role in globalization by spreading ideas across borders, though this can lead to both homogenization and diversification of cultures. A small number of large media companies dominate distribution of information worldwide. The media influences public opinion and can shape perceptions on important issues and events. Exposure to violence in media can also impact children's development.
The document discusses different theories of media globalization. It outlines the functionalist theory proposed by Harold Laswell and Charles Wright in the 1940s and 1960s, which describes five functions of mass media: surveillance, correlation, transmission, entertainment, and mobilization. It also discusses the social responsibility theory stemming from the Hutchins Commission report of 1947, which argued that media has certain obligations to society, including truth, accuracy, objectivity, balance and diversity of views. Finally, it covers the Marxist theory of media tied to communist ideology, emphasizing the role of media as a collective agitator and propagandist under government control with no private ownership.
This document summarizes a lecture on gender representations in media and why they still matter. It discusses how gender equality has improved in some ways but still lags in other areas like pay inequality. It covers the history of feminist movements and analyses of media from early TV to today. It analyzes how media portrays women, from "happy housewives" to increased sexualization and focus on bodies. It discusses the challenges of determining what media representations are sexist and the impacts on women's opportunities. In conclusion, while overt stereotypes have reduced, more subtle sexism remains widespread and affects women's lives and career prospects.
This document provides an overview of media and journalism in Brazil. It discusses that Brazil has a large media market but that journalism is facing a crisis due to economic pressures and competition from new technologies. Investigative journalism is under threat and Brazil has become the deadliest country for media personnel in the Western Hemisphere. Recent large protests in 2013 highlighted issues with the dominant media model and methods still used by state police. The future of journalism in Brazil will depend on continued democratization and economic reforms, as well as building public trust through integrity.
The document discusses the New World Information and Communication Order (NWICO) which was proposed in the 1970s. It aimed to address imbalances in global communication and the dominance of Western news agencies. However, the United States opposed NWICO as it was seen as a threat to the free flow of information and the interests of American media corporations. The controversy around NWICO ultimately led to the United States and United Kingdom withdrawing from UNESCO in 1984 and 1985 respectively.
1) The document examines the livelihood strategies of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in urban areas of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), specifically in the eastern cities of Bukavu and Goma.
2) It finds that IDPs are able to sustain their lives in cities with little humanitarian aid by relying on social networks like kinship ties, acquaintances, and local organizations. Surprisingly, local authorities also provided some assistance, at least initially.
3) However, the identification and assistance of IDPs by humanitarian organizations is inconsistent and often does not align with the UN's Guiding Principles on Internal Displacement. While IDPs demonstrate agency in supporting themselves, their vulnerable position is often neglected.
American Government - Chapter 10 - Mediacyruskarimian
The document discusses the evolving relationship between media and politics in the United States over time. It describes how colonial newspapers promoted political discussion and independence, while the development of new printing technologies in the 1830s freed the press from financial dependence on political parties. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, sensationalistic "yellow journalism" and investigative "muckraking" journalism gained popularity before objectivity in reporting became emphasized. More recently, trends include declining newspaper readership, less news attention from young people who use social media more, and "narrowcasting" of tailored political messages.

The document discusses the legal and ethical challenges of diversity in academia. While diversity provides educational benefits, implementing diversity policies is problematic. Minority students and faculty face barriers like isolation and lack of access. Affirmative action aims to address racial stratification, but its application and the concept of diversity have weakened the relationship between social justice and prejudice. Future policies should better define diversity and equality based on an understanding of different cultures and perspectives.
This document summarizes chapters 11 and 12 from the book "Political Economy: A Comparative Approach, 2nd Edition" by Barry Clark.

This document discusses a research paper on the role of international news in Puerto Rico's political discourse. The paper examines how issues related to Puerto Rico and Puerto Ricans are covered, or not covered, by major US and international news media. It hypothesizes that news about Puerto Rico is scarce and limited in scope, especially regarding the territory's real political, economic, and social dynamics. The invisibility of Puerto Rico in international news has negative consequences for Puerto Rican national identity and US domestic and foreign policies.

A First Look at Communication Theory9th EditionGriffin, Ledbetter & Sparks
Five primary characteristics of leadership in public administration include: managing by doing the right things rather than just doing things right; directing others' work through both formal and informal authority; being accountable to the public while following many rules and checks on authority; and promoting principles of fairness. An Aesop's fable about a crab mother criticizing her son's sideways walking illustrates the point that leaders should lead by example, not just words.
The document discusses the challenges of public leadership over the next 5 years, arguing that leadership will be more about facilitating transitions and exploring options within societal and institutional constraints rather than implementing transformative visions, as rising inequality, differential access, expectations, and sustainability issues will determine leadership responses more than leaders determining the solutions. Key dynamics include uncertainty, institutional fatigue, a lack of connection between leaders and publics, and the need to address "wicked problems" through complex adaptive approaches rather than inadequate options.

study explores how American news media have framed the issue of illegal immi-
gration. More specifically, we analyze the way the media present the questions of
why illegal immigration is a problem, what the causes are, and how to fix the
problem. We also make a comparison across different media outlets (border-state
newspapers vs. papers elsewhere; newspapers vs. television news), looking at
whether news coverage of the issue has been consistent across the media.

Over the last two decades or so, illegal immigration to the United States has
almost tripled from an estimated 4 million undocumented residents in 1986
to about 11.2 million in 2008 (Camarota & Jensenius, 2008). With the
fast-growing number of illegal immigrants, the issue is now an increasingly
important topic in American politics, producing a substantial amount of
public debate (Dunaway, Abrajano, & Branton, 2007).
At the center of the debate are the questions of what causes the problem
and how to fix it. How to define causal and solution responsibility is parti-
cularly important because it shapes the overall policy direction and, more
important, the domain of society to which the effort to make changes should
be applied (Salmon, 1989). News media play a significant role in the process
of defining a social problem (Kim & Willis, 2007). The media can ‘‘frame’’
an issue.
This document summarizes Kent Wilkinson's lecture on social scientific and interpretive traditions in international communication research. It discusses two main traditions - effects research that focuses on how messages elicit responses, and political economy/interpretation research prevalent in Europe. It also outlines three paradigms in development communication - modernization, dependency, and alternative approaches emphasizing local participation. The document contrasts social scientific and humanistic approaches to theory and research.
This document discusses the challenges of defining indigeneity and protecting indigenous rights. It focuses specifically on whether the Romani people of Eastern Europe should be considered indigenous and granted indigenous rights, despite not having territorial claims. While international declarations like UNDRIP and C169 aim to protect indigenous peoples, they leave room for debate around who qualifies as indigenous. The document argues that basing indigeneity solely on territorial origin is flawed, as the Romani have resided in Europe for centuries and inhabited the region at the establishment of modern state boundaries. It maintains that no group is truly native to Europe and that determining indigenous ancestry can be traced back indefinitely.
The document discusses the evolution of media over time. It notes that in 2010, Americans had access to various forms of media including 24-hour news channels, music videos, documentaries, and reality shows through television as well as movies and videos online. It also discusses how media consumption has increased dramatically in recent decades. The document then examines the various roles that media plays in society such as entertainment and communication, and how technological innovations have helped expand access to media over history.
The document discusses several topics related to globalization including:
1. Globalization represents a complex process that reshapes the international scenario and roles of global players as companies become more multinational and states face new challenges in regulating economic activity.
2. Migration, human/sex trafficking, and transnational organized crime tend to increase with globalization as borders become more porous, but states still have alternatives for effectively participating in globalization.
3. Human/sex trafficking definitions, statistics, and country tier rankings according to compliance with anti-trafficking standards are reviewed, noting it remains a problem in the US as well as globally.
4. Transnational organized criminal groups like drug cartels present strategic

University of Helsinki - Journalism in Latin AmericaCarolina Matos
This document summarizes research on the role of commercial broadcasting and journalism in Brazil. It discusses how Brazilian media developed following a US commercial model under the military dictatorship from 1964-1985. It describes how the largest broadcaster, TV Globo, both aided and resisted the dictatorship at times and played an influential role in Brazil's democratization process and national identity formation through programming like telenovelas. The document also examines debates around objectivity and balance in Brazilian journalism as it transitioned from the dictatorship era to modern democracy.
This document summarizes key points from a conference presentation on public service broadcasting in Brazil compared to Europe. It discusses definitions of public service broadcasting and the public interest, compares media systems models in Europe and Latin America, and outlines challenges for public media in Brazil. Hallin and Mancini's models of liberal, democratic corporatist, and polarized pluralist media systems are explained in the context of analyzing broadcasting in Europe, North America, Southern Europe, and Latin America.
The common thread throughout these examples and the premise for this paper is the following. Slavery, Jim Crow, The Trail of Tears, the Holocaust, the internment of Japanese citizens during World War 11, and the current administrations desired prohibitions regarding Muslims, the fixation with a wall at the southern border, and now separating children from their families all stem from a tragic lack of belief in and respect for the humanity of “The Other.” When one group thinks itself better than another, tragedy happens. The fear of other races and ethnicities comingling feeds such thinking. Another theme is a very strong desire to retain what many believe is the one true culture, not to be mixed with language, religion, or traditions from other cultures. There is hope , though, and it comes from what for some may be a surprising source.

In "Truth about Stories," Thomas King explores different stories of the Native American people culture and his own experience as an Indian. King gives a perspective on the relationship, culture, and social history of the Native Americans. He uses storytelling and gears it to current issues that are affecting American society and even the world. He digs deep into how racism, oppression, and discrimination have affected the Indian populations living in America.
Lopez, Lori Kido. “Fan Activists and the Politics of Race in The Last Airbender.” International Journal of Cultural Studies, vol. 15, no. 5, Sept. 2016, pp. 431–445,
The authors focus on the American consciousness in terms of the country being a multiracial community. They begin the journal by explaining how the set up of the United States is based on the majority and minority communities in the country. The consideration of the factors leads to the broader understanding of how specific process needs to be followed to ensure that equality is maintained in different classes. The representation of the minority communities through the media is a critical activity that takes place in the paper. This is key in highlighting how most films depict the actual set up of the country. A look at the aspect through the film the last air-bender explains the existing differences that the media is critical at depicted. The multicultural context is clearly represented in the paper, which gives a perfect understanding of how the process is supposed to take place to ensure that equality is promoted.
Del Río, Esteban. “Accentuate the Positive: Americanos and the Articulation of Latina/o Life in the United States.” Journal of Communication Inquiry, vol. 36, no. 3, July 2015, pp. 179–201,
The author explains the literary context of American society. This takes place through a broader explanation of the American consciousness in a unique manner that facilitates a general understanding of the author's central message. The approach of the topic through the Latino communities perfectly explains the situation. It is evident that the Latinos are a minority community in the country. The fact that they are part of American society is a crucial issue that cannot be ignored. The surrounding of the country explains the reason behind the existence of the minority communities in the country. Its depiction in the media films reveals the influences that the community has in the country. The fact that they make up a significant part of the American society is a critical issue that the author addresses uniquely that one can clearly understand what his intention highlighting the question of American consciousness in the multicultural country was.

Merton's strain theory attempts to address criticisms of Durkheim's theory of crime and deviance. Merton argued that an over-emphasis on cultural goals like material wealth without equal access to legitimate means to achieve them can lead to a situation of anomie or normlessness where people turn to deviance. Different social classes experience this strain differently based on their socialization and access to opportunities, leading some to engage in deviant behaviors like crime. While evidence from periods of social change support Merton's theory, it has also been criticized for assuming a value consensus and failing to explain non-materially motivated crimes.
This document discusses the role of media and news agencies in the process of globalization from the 19th century onward. It outlines how advances in communication technologies like the telegraph, undersea cables, satellites, and the internet have facilitated the increasing global flow of information. News agencies that emerged in the 19th century, like Reuters and AFP, helped spread international news and contributed to establishing a global news system, initially expanding alongside European colonialism. While early media was mostly national in scope, globalization in the late 20th century led to greater cross-border cultural and information flows. However, issues around cultural imperialism and the "digital divide" demonstrate that globalization has also increased inequalities in access to media and technologies.
Essay Elaborations on the concept of identitity from Huntington's -Who are we Julio Cepeda
1) The formation of American national identity was shaped by early British Protestant settlers who established core values like the English language, Protestant Christianity, and principles of self-governance. This identity was reinforced by race-based exclusion and expansion westward over centuries.
2) In the late 20th century, increased globalization, immigration from Asia and Latin America, and civil rights movements weakened the previously dominant conception of American identity. A divide emerged between more nationalist populations and increasingly cosmopolitan elites.
3) The 9/11 terrorist attacks marked a turning point, strengthening American nationalism and religious aspects of identity while increasing barriers against some immigration and multiculturalism. Similar impacts were expected in European national identities.

Identity In Narrative A Study Of Immigrant DiscourseErin Torres
This document introduces the motivation and objectives of the book. It aims to investigate the construction and negotiation of identities among Mexican immigrants in the United States through qualitative analysis of narratives. Specifically, it seeks to understand how narrative discourse shapes identities and how identities are expressed locally in narratives. The book is based on interviews with 14 Mexican immigrants in Maryland. It argues that qualitative, discourse-based approaches provide valuable insights into immigrant experiences and identities that are often overlooked. Narratives in particular are well-suited for this analysis as they allow immigrants to freely discuss their experiences and negotiate meanings and identities.

The document summarizes key court cases and laws related to diversity and fairness in the United States:
Brown v. Board of Education (1954) ruled that racial segregation in public schools is unconstitutional. Bolling v. Sharpe (1954) extended this ruling to Washington D.C. schools via the Fifth Amendment. Plyer v. Doe (1982) struck down a Texas law denying schooling to undocumented immigrant children.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibited employment discrimination on characteristics like race and gender. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 replaced discriminatory national quotas with a preference system based on skills and family ties. The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 prohibited discrimination against people with disabilities across various domains

This document summarizes the main traps and tricks to avoid in critical ethnography, as well as why one should take a critical approach. It outlines 8 common traps that can undermine a study, such as only seeing what fits one's biases or making claims not supported by evidence. To avoid these, the author recommends letting the data guide conclusions rather than imposing preconceptions. A critical approach is valuable for intellectual growth, ethical responsibility, and emancipating people from unnecessary domination. Overall, critical ethnography provides a way to understand other cultures and view one's own with a more open perspective.

The document provides information on human subjects research regulations and policies at Howard University. It discusses key events that shaped modern research ethics regulations, such as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study and the resulting National Research Act of 1974. The Act established Institutional Review Boards and the Belmont Report. The document then outlines Howard University's human subjects protection program, including the responsibilities of the Office of Regulatory Research Compliance and the Institutional Review Boards. It provides guidance on the different levels of IRB review and types of research studies.
In March 2, 1917, the Jones Act was approved granting U.S. citizenship to people born in P.R. and providing the residents of P.R. with a “Charter of Rights.” That Bill of Rights included inter alia the “due process” of law when a citizen's life, liberty or property are violated; the right to “Habeas Corpus”; prohibition of ex post facto laws; the just compensation for expropriated property; the right to bail; the right to be innocent until proven guilty; the right to freedom of speech and press; and numerous other provisions under the Constitution of the United Together. In 1948, the U.S. Supreme Court expressed in Foley Brothers Inc. v. Filardo, 336 U.S. 281, that it was a well-established principle of law that all federal legislation applies only within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States unless a contrary intent appears. It was later established that P.R. was to be subject to the Congress’ plenary powers under the “territorial clause” of Article IV, sec. 3, of the U.S. Constitution and that due to the establishment of the Federal Relations Act of 1950 all federal laws that are “not locally inapplicable” were to be automatically the law of the land in P.R.
In 1951, the U.S. Congress approved Public Law 600, authorizing P.R. to draft its own constitution. In July 25, 1952, the Puerto Rican Constitution was approved by a popular referendum and ratified by the U.S. Congress, with a “few amendments.” U.S. maintained an ultimate sovereignty over P.R. while at the same time it gave Puerto Ricans certain degree of autonomy over the island. Under the Territorial Clause, the autonomy recognized to the island has being interpreted by the U.S. Congress as recognition of the sovereignty over the island. In 1976 the U.S. Supreme Court indicated that the purpose of Congress in the legislations of 1950 and 1952 was to accord to P.R. the degree of autonomy and independence normally associated with a State of the Union. In that same year the Puerto Rican Supreme Court, posed with the question of what should be the relationship between the 4th Amendment of the Federal Constitution, and section 10 of article II of the Puerto Rican Constitution, concluded that P.R. remains subject to the will of Congress as to what rights are applicable and which not and that 4th Amendment describes the minimum level of security to be recognize by states, borders that can be expanded but not reduced. In short, because more than 150 years of constitutional development and civil rights struggles around the world as well as the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights” and the “American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man,” both from 1948, were taken into account, P.R. was be able to draft a Bill of Rights more extensive and progressive than the one written by the drafters of the U.S. Constitution in the 18th century. In response to that struggle the P.R. Constitution recognizes the constitutional rights of the U.S. Constitutio
The document discusses methods for analyzing material culture, documents, and quantitative data in historical research. It makes the following key points:
1) Historians must immerse themselves in primary and secondary sources to gain thorough context before formulating research questions. Questions should be open-ended and testable.
2) Researchers must authenticate sources by establishing their origins and credibility. Primary sources like records and relics require examining motivations and contexts.
3) Both traditional documentary analysis of sources and quantitative content analysis are useful, with the latter adding rigor. Historians interpret sources in their original contexts to draw defensible inferences.
Puerto Rico has a long history as both a Spanish colony and unincorporated U.S. territory. It was inhabited by Taíno people prior to Spanish colonization in the 15th century. Puerto Rico was ceded to the U.S. after the Spanish-American War in 1898 and began a period of military rule. Puerto Ricans were granted U.S. citizenship in 1917 but agitated for further autonomy and independence. A movement toward self-government increased after World War II, culminating in Puerto Rico's adoption of a local constitution in 1952 within the framework of U.S. sovereignty.

The document discusses several key Supreme Court cases related to marriage from 1967 to 2003. Loving v. Virginia (1967) struck down laws banning interracial marriage. Baker v. Nelson (1971) was one of the first cases to address same-sex marriage, with the Minnesota Supreme Court ruling that marriage was restricted to opposite-sex couples. The era saw a shift from addressing miscegenation to addressing privacy in marriage and relationships, laying the groundwork for future same-sex marriage cases.

The Role of World News on the National Identity and Political Change of Puerto Rico

national identity and political
change of Puerto Rico
(El papel de las noticias internacionales en la identidad
nacional y los cambios políticos de Puerto Rico)
AITZA M. HADDAD NUNEZ
HOWARD UNIVERSITY
2. Introduction
Mass-media has effectively shaped national
and transnational identities
Concepts of identity are communicated
through the use of media such as television,
radio and the press (Roth, 2009)
5. Development and International News
“Economic development is the most important
determinant of a country’s place in the network of
international news flow” (Shoemaker & Cohen, 2006,
p.4)
Progress is impossible without development in technology
and in the control of one’s own communication system
(Masmoudi, 1981)
6. Colonial Status and Media System
In 1990, the first comprehensive analysis of Puerto Rico’s mass
media political economy, concluded that the fundamental factor
shaping the media system, and therefore the communication
structure, of the Island was the Island’s status with the US.
Given Puerto Rico’s colonial status, the mass media of the Island
was:
1. Largely supported by capital from the US,
2. Under the judicial and regulatory system of the US,
3. And affected, in structure and content, by struggles concerning
Puerto Rico’s relationship with US

9. Shaping & Sharing of Power through
Communication
There are three main communication problems affecting
and facilitating the continued exercise of US unilateral control
over the island:
1. The (false) discourse of “post-colonialism” created after WWII
2. The use of misleading euphemisms in the media, such as
commonwealth, and legal labels, such as incorporated territory;
3. The highly charged connotations of the term colony, which
makes some scholars shy away from using it
(Font-Guzmán and Alemán, 2010)
10. “The production of meaning is a key instrument for the
stabilization of power relations” (Jorgensen & Philips, 2011, p.32)
11. Discourse under Colonial Situations
A colonial situation is based on the relationship of
power between one group of people over another,
which is shaped and sustained by an ideology of racism
(Memmi, 1965, p.38).
Thus, racism becomes a necessary evil of colonialism. But
it’s not just racism, but colonial racism
12. Colonial Racism
[C]olonized’s racism is the result of a more general delusion: the
colonialist delusion […] The racism of the colonized is then
neither biological nor metaphysical, but social and historical. It
is not based on a belief in the inferiority of the detested group
but on the conviction, and in large measure on the observation,
that this group is truly an aggressor and dangerous […] In brief,
it is not aggressive but defensive racism (Memmi, 1965,
pp.130-131).
13. Effects of Colonial Racism
Puerto Rico’s non-stopping colonial situation has had direct
negative effects on Puerto Ricans’ national identities and
their emotions, especially on the ones living on the Island,
as well on how the world sees and feels about them…
In 2003, feelings expressed by participants of four focus
groups:
Echoed the writings on colonialism of the 1960s;
Negative concept of the country’s social and political situation,
and of the Puerto Rican collective

14. From Colonial Racism…
The struggle between colonialism and national identity;
Raises the problem of participants feeling proud about being
Puerto Rican as individuals, but ashamed of the group as a
collective entity at the same time
Suggests that young Puerto Ricans have not yet completely
internalized the colonial ideas
(Varas-Díaz & Serrano-García, 2003)
15. To Panethnicity
Panethnicity refers to “the development of bridging organizations
and the generalization of solidarity among ethnic subgroups”
(Lopez & Espiritu, 1990, p.198)
Telemundo and Univision have openly tried to find the most
suitable programming for the labeled group of “Hispanics” or
“Latinos”
Both networks researched highly rated shows to determine the
common patterns of the characteristics of the Spanish-language
television programs accepted by all Hispanics, regardless of their
particular national origins (Álvarez-González, 2010)
16. Panethnic Identification:
Problem or Solution?
Colonial racism through media increases panethnicity
The higher panethnic identification is, the lower national identity
would be
The colonized is condemn to have a mutation of language, and
therefore of identity, but also a loss of memory, and thus, of
history (Memmi, 1965);
The dangerous effect of the colonial reality of partial concessions
and marginal inclusion to which Puerto Rico and Puerto Ricans
are subjected is putting Puerto Ricans at risk of losing the sense
of who they are (Font-Guzmán & Alemán, 2010)
17. Conclusion
The social and legal structures and scenarios in which communicative events about Puerto
Rico and Puerto Ricans take place, codify them in ways that “legitimize” or obfuscate their
occurrence as part of the colonial situation (Font-Guzmán & Alemán, 2010)
In order to put Puerto Rico back on the map, and with that, be able to reframe and
facilitate a long-overdue discourse that can shape and share the discussion about how to
reconcile US international obligations towards Puerto Rico, three things are crucial:
1. The recognition of Puerto Rico as a colony in the analysis of the current false post-
colonial discourse;
2. The decoding of the encoded illusions and idioms that are constituted by, and are
constituting, the systems of truths and representations of Puerto Rico and Puerto Ricans
in the current discourse of colonial racism in domestic and international news;
3. Determine who are the stakeholders in the power relations producing the social practices
that are constituted by, and are constituting, the current discourse of panethnic
identification of Puerto Ricans, domestically and internationally.

Editor's Notes
UPR cuts of funds
There are serious arguments suggesting that the current arrangement between United States and Puerto Rico may violate US Constitution, US international obligations, international treaties to which the US is a party, or all of the above (Lawson and Sloane, 2009)
Control of the education and media systems becomes imperative for the sustainability of the Puerto Rico’s colonial discourse, because, by shaping and sharing knowledge, meaning, and thus, power;
Disguises the colonial situation through the promotion of a false post-colonial discourse;
Shapes and share a discourse of panethnic identification and colonial racism;
And by attaching negative connotations to the term “colony,” discourages scholars to invest time and effort in studying colonialism.
so that these powers relations can be naturalized and unquestioned
“Discourse is a form of social practice that both constitute the social world and it’s constituted by other social practices” (p.61), which “are shaped by social structures and power relations […] that people are often not aware of…” (Jorgensen & Philips, 2002, 2014 p.66).
In colonial situations, however, people, although might not understand, are completely aware of…
in terms of how it behaves, its relations to other groups, and its characteristics and lack of identity
Mass-media has effectively shaped national and transnational identities, and concepts of identity are communicated through the use of media such as television, radio and the press (Roth, 2009);
