CHAPTER 8: THE MEDIA
Does the media impact our public opinion / impact how we think about events?
· Picture Hurricane Katrina happening and everything only being on the radio.
· Picture 9/11 happening and only being on the radio.
People, Government and Communications
· There are TWO types of media to think about when you think about media – print media and broadcast media.
· Print Media – media in print – newspapers and magazines.
· Broadcast Media – electronic media – sound and images – radio and television and the internet. This is not just the news, news shows, televising presidential debates – think also about movies that make political statements. Examples of singers that sing about political ideas (Eminem, Natalie Maines speaking out against President Bush at a concert for military action in Iraq).
· Does the media play a role in communications from the government?
· Examples? Presidential election debates, press conference from President Obama, weekly radio address.
· Does the media shape your political views?
· Think about the type of government we live in and how the media effects us versus if you lived in a communist country media flows more freely in “one direction” – the government feeding information to its citizens versus the public responding to public opinion.
The Development of the Mass Media in the United States
Newspapers
· There is a big difference in the way newspapers were in 1775 in the colonies and newspapers today.
· In 1775 there were about 37 weekly newspapers that were read by the people that have land and money – newspapers were not independent but politically affiliated and published by parties to advance ideas of the party.
· In the 1830s newspapers started to be published daily and started private ownership.
· Daily papers by circulation as of January 2015 – print and electronic circulation:
· Wall Street Journal – 2.3 million every day
· USA Today – 3.2 million every day
· New York Times – 1.8 million every day
· Dallas Morning News – 400,000 every day
Magazines
· When you think about magazines think daily or monthly – less frequency.
· This is more specialized than newspapers – more analytical – they have more time to examine and do research on something than a daily newspaper does.
· Usually more specialized – not just an overview of all news – but some specific topic – from a magazine catering to Democrats to one on celebrities.
· Weekly magazines and their weekly circulation:
· Time – 3.3 million copies.
· National Enquirer – 1 million (at its height 6 million)
· People – 3.75 million – 46.4 million people are in their readership – when Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had their baby Shiloh – People paid $4.1 million to them for the first photos and there were 26.5 MILLION page views on their internet page – the single largest daily internet traffic ever. Does People impact people and their viewpoints?
Radio
· Regularly scheduled and continuous broadcasting on the radio began in 1920 on t.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
