Susan Jacobson (2011) focuses her study on the website of the New York Times, nytimes.com. Specifically, she focuses on the changes that occur in the journalism of the New York Times when their news is transcoded to their website. Some of the parameters measured for change include: the storytelling intent, the nature of reporting (objective, subjective or analytical), and perspectives of narration. The study reviewed 479 packages posted on the website of the New York Times (nytimes.com), out of a total of more than 25000 packages posted between the years 2000 and 2008.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

23. The Beijing 2008 Olympic Games can be characterised, in part, as a struggle over various kinds of media politics, both domestic and global. In 2007, China instituted new, temporary legislation to enable wider freedoms to report for foreign journalists. The duration of this legislation extends to November 2008, one month after the close of the Paralympic Games. Also, Beijing’s Games are the first in history where the contracts for television broadcasting rights have been separated from the sale of Internet broadcast rights. Moreover, the Beijing Games will be the first Web 2.0 Summer Games, to the extent that users – present or absent from the Olympic city - will enjoy the capacity to broadcast their own material across wireless fidelity (wi-fi) using a range of mobile technology. The additional capacity of Really Simple Syndication (RSS) means that this material can have a wider short-term impact than the official broadcasters. This presents a case where the exclusive coverage of the Games could be diluted or fragmented by new media activists. Yet, stories of prominent Chinese bloggers being charged with subverting the state’s power, creates a dual problematic by instilling a division of contested media freedoms among domestic and international journalists. This paper discusses a range of issues presented by these circumstances, articulating various expectations of how Beijing’s Games will be reported by accredited and non-accredited media, traditional and new. It explores this in the context of discussions about citizen and networked journalism, which reflect two types of proposition on the relationship between the professions and amateur journalist. Finally, it introduces the concept of ambush media to negotiate the mundane practices of many online practitioners, alongside the expected activism that underpins prevalent expectations of new media platforms.

This research is based on 10 years of following discussions about emerging journalists communities In particular, 1 month field work in Beijing during 2006 with Dr Beatriz Garcia. The story to explain is that there is a mixed-regulated zone that has been in operation since, initially Barcelona, but more formally since Sydney 2000. My proposition is that these entities constitute forms of ‘Ambush Media’ mechanisms that re-focus the media gaze in various ways. The Poltiics and the Protest occurs on various levels. It occurs in the attempt from host cities to infiltrate the branding constraints of the IOC It consists in journalists attempting to infiltrate these new semi-regulated spaces It occurs through new media journalists who function in the deliberate absence of such environments It concerns the particularities of Beijing’s media story thus far.
