Application of Internet in Journalism and Mass CommunicationDr. Shalini Pandey
The document discusses various applications of the internet in journalism and mass communication. It describes online journalism as news reporting and distribution via the internet. Journalists use the internet for research, social networking, blogging, and more. Benefits of online journalism include low costs and multimedia capabilities, while drawbacks include lack of fact-checking and information overload. Citizen journalism allows public participation in news collection and reporting. Mass communication uses various internet tools like email, chat rooms, and file transfer for relaying information. Recent trends in using the internet for mass communication include distance education, e-commerce, and e-networking on a global scale.
Digital journalism also known as online journalism is a contemporary form of journalism where editorial content is distributed via the Internet as opposed to publishing via print or broadcast.
Online journalism encompasses various types of media that have a web presence, including associations, magazines, newspapers, and radio and television websites. There are four main types of online journalism: mainstream news sites that provide editorial content with minimal user participation; index and category sites that offer links to existing news sites and allow for user comments; meta and comment sites that discuss media issues or act as media watchdogs; and share and discussion sites that allow users to exchange ideas and stories. Key characteristics of online journalism include hypertextuality through internal and external hyperlinks, multimediality through the use of different media formats, and interactivity through navigational, functional, and adaptive features that allow users to respond to and customize stories.
Journalism, like any other niche, has also been influenced by the Digital Media. The usage of digital technologies to research, produce and deliver (or make accessible) news and information is termed as Digital Journalism in simple.
This session sheds an average light on all the aspects of digital jounalism in today's digital context ranging from the theories to the legal issues so concerned.

Week 13 lecture notes com350generative criticismOlivia Miller
Generative criticism is a method of analyzing artifacts without following a formal criticism method. It involves the critic generating the units of analysis and explanation from the artifact. The process involves 9 steps: 1) encountering an artifact, 2) broad coding, 3) searching for explanations, 4) creating an explanatory schema, 5) assessing the schema, 6) formulating a research question, 7) detailed coding, 8) literature review, and 9) writing the essay. Key aspects of generative criticism include broad and detailed coding of the artifact to discover features and patterns, developing categories of interpretation, creating an explanatory schema to connect interpretations, and assessing whether the schema sufficiently explains the artifact.
Pentadic criticism seeks to analyze human motivation through examining the five elements - act, agent, agency, scene, and purpose - present in a communication. It is based on the work of Kenneth Burke and his concept of dramatism. The critic applies the pentad by labeling the five elements in the artifact, analyzing how the elements are related through ratios, and identifying the dominant element to understand the underlying motive from the perspective suggested by that element. For example, if purpose is the dominant element, the motive could be described as mystical, emphasizing unity over individuality.
Week 11 lecturenotes com350 narrative criticismOlivia Miller
1. The document discusses key concepts and features of narratives, including their purpose to create personal involvement, generate coherence, and organize experiences.
2. It outlines 4 key features of narratives: comprising at least 2 events; events organized by time (not necessarily chronologically); including causal relationships among events; and having a unified subject.
3. The document provides guidance on analyzing artifacts in 3 steps: identifying the objective; identifying narrative features like characters, events, and structure; and assessing how well the narrative achieves its objective.
This document provides an overview of metaphoric criticism as a method of rhetorical analysis. It discusses metaphors as a means through which phenomena are understood and defined, and how changing the metaphor used can change the meaning and perception. It outlines Jeffrey Feldman's 5-step method for reframing issues using new metaphors. It also provides a 6-step process for analyzing artifacts metaphorically and developing research questions focused on the topic or lens used. Finally, it distinguishes 3 types of visual metaphors that can be used in analysis.
Generic criticism examines recurring patterns in discourse that respond to similar situations and audience needs. A critic identifies genres by their situational requirements, substantive and stylistic elements, and organizing principle. Genres include greetings, advertisements, and legal closing arguments. They function to sort, generate, and influence rhetoric through pattern templates. Generic criticism analyzes artifacts through description, participation, or application to determine if a genre exists, which genres an artifact participates in, or how well an artifact fulfills a genre.
This document provides lecture notes on ideological criticism from COM 350 Chapter 8. It defines ideology as a set of beliefs that interprets issues for a group and encourages attitudes. Ideologies exist everywhere and examples include patriotism, Christianity, and vegetarianism. Features of ideologies are that they are composed of evaluative beliefs and allow group members to act as a group. Hegemonic ideologies use social control and symbolic coercion to maintain dominance. The document outlines various influences on ideological criticism such as structuralism, Marxism, deconstructionism, cultural studies, articulation theory, and postmodernism. It provides steps for analyzing an artifact which include identifying presented and suggested elements, formulating the ideology, and identifying the ideology's functions
This document provides an overview of feminist criticism as a rhetorical method. It discusses the roots of feminism in the women's liberation movement and defines feminist criticism's goals of critiquing oppression and strategies to end oppression. The document outlines three stages in the development of feminist thought and explores how feminist criticism has contributed to rhetorical theory by analyzing rhetoric from a women's perspective and examining the impact of gender. It also describes strategies used in feminist critique, such as generating multiple perspectives, cultivating ambiguity, reframing, enacting, and juxtaposing incongruities.
Cluster criticism is a method developed by Kenneth Burke for analyzing rhetorical artifacts. It examines the key terms used in a document and charts the terms that cluster around them. This reveals the worldview and terministic screen of the rhetors. A cluster analysis of a document provides insights into the meanings of terms used and allows researchers to examine assumptions. It works by identifying key terms, charting how other terms cluster around them, and using this to discover an explanation of the document and worldview presented.
This document provides an overview of the steps and methods for conducting rhetorical criticism. It outlines the following key aspects:
1. The steps in rhetorical criticism include selecting an artifact, analyzing it using specific methods, formulating a research question, conducting a literature review, writing the essay, and optionally applying the analysis to activism.
2. When analyzing the artifact, critics examine it using the "units of analysis" defined by the chosen method, such as strategies, evidence, values or metaphors.
3. The research question asks what the critic wants to learn about rhetoric by studying the artifact. It should focus on the communication's rhetor, audience, situation and message.
4. Findings from the
This document provides an overview of fantasy theme analysis, a method of rhetorical criticism developed by Ernest Bormann. It examines how shared fantasies and rhetorical visions create a common reality and consciousness within small groups. Fantasy theme analysis involves identifying the setting, character, and action themes within artifacts to understand the group's worldview. When themes converge between individuals, it indicates symbolic conversion has occurred and a rhetorical community has formed that interprets events in similar ways.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

2. interpersonal
appeal ofdigital
media shaped its
development
From the development of the Internet in 1969 the
scientist started emailing each other even before the
whole thing was operational.
From the text “The Internet was not built as a personal
communication medium” (Baym, 2015, p.14). The
human desire for connection drove the growth of the
internet (p.18).
“When the first internet connection was made in 1969
through what was then called ARPANET, funded by
the U. S. Department of Defense, no one envisioned
that an interpersonal communication medium had
been launched” (Baym, 2015, p.14).
3. Personal usesthat
drive adaption to
newtechnology
Gutenberg’s printed press had a personal application.
The Wall Street Journal (Jan 4, 2018) reported a
University of Oxford researcher finding and indexing
the half a million books printed between 1450 (when
the press was invented) and 1500. The top sellers were
grammar manuals teaching people how to read.
Dr. Dondi told the WSJ, “We are finally proving the
link between literacy and the printing revolution”
(Clark, 2018).
Radio was invented to be point-to-point communication
and became point-to-many communication
The telegraph and refrigerator are techs where an
unexpected use became the main use
4. Thetextual
Internet
Began in the Department of Defense ARPANET
Internet was text-only for 25 years.
Users were scientists and academians
After the military handoff in 1979, the Internet is
funded and maintained by the National Science
Foundation, which prohibited commercial activity.
NO ONE expected the general public to have a lick of
interest in the Internet. Bill Gates famously admitted
in an interview in July of 1998: “Sometimes we do get
taken by surprise. For example, when the Internet
came along, we had it as a fifth or sixth priority.”
5. “Talk”
“Talk” was an early synchronous Internet
communication genre” (Baym, 2015, p.15).
Talk was followed by “ Internet Relay Chat” (IRC) and
later by chat rooms.
Instant Messaging (an advanced version of Talk)
developed in the 1990s.
IM is a person-to-person medium.
Mailing lists came along with email, allowing a single
message to be sent to a wide audience.
In the 1980s came Usenet groups, asynchronous topic-
based discussion forums distributed across multiple
servers. Sadly, Usenets groups are spam magnets!
6. Gaming
developed during
early Internet
In the 1970s, Richard Bartle and Roy Trubshaw
developed MUD1 and Alan Klietz developedSceptre of
Goth, interactive online role-playing games .
Later came MUDs, MOOs, MUCKs, and MUSHers—
all creative environments for gaming.
Video gaming developed into a $21billion industry from
those early efforts
7. TheWorldWide
Web
Tim Berners-Lee developed HTLM in the 1990s to
allow images and graphics
Mosaic browser released free in 1993
web boards, blogs, wikis, social network sites, video
and photo sharing sites, and graphically intensive
virtual worlds such as World of Warcraft and League of
Legends.
8. Web2.0
emergedinthe
2000s
Characterized by user-generated content
Wikis such as Wikipedia collected user-generated
content
Blogs are Web2.0 because blogs are linked to other
blogs, creating a social network site.
Blogs include a blogroll, a list of hyperlinks to other
blogs that creates connections and drives traffic.
Social networking sites (SNSs) such as Facebook,
MySpace, LinkedIn are created.
We live in a “polymedia” environment where media can
be embedded in one another and all media form
contexts for the others.
9. Whousesnew
digitalmedia?
In the early years, only the developers used new media
By 1980s, scientists at universities and college
students used new media.
During the 1980s, the internet was noncommercial,
and people gained connections through CompuServe,
America Online, and Prodigy
Access gradually spread to other countries, especially
the UK and Northern Europe.
In 1994-95 the National Science Foundation stopped
its funding and the Internet became commercial
10. Demographic
differences in
usersin2014
Whites were 10 percent more likely to use new media
than Hispanics.
Among young people 98 – 29) 98 percent used the
Internet
Only 56 percent of people over 65 used the Internet
In households earning less than $30,000/year, 76
percent used the Internet
In households earning more than $75,000/year, 96
percent used the Internet
Of non-high school graduates, only 59 percent used the
Internet
Of college graduates, 96 percent used the
Internet
11. GlobalStatistics
Men are 11 percent more likely than women to use the
Internet
76.7 percent of North Americans use the Internet
67.6 percent of Australians use the Internet
63.2 percent of Europeans use the Internet
42.9 percent of Latin Americans use the Internet
40.2 percent of Middle Easterners
27.5 percent of Asians
15.6 percent of Africans
Much of the global population is illiterate, so mobile
phone use is higher in areas with low Internet use.
12. 3waysblogs
intersectwith
journalism
1- Blogs give firsthand reports from ongoing event
2- Bloggers tell stories that mainstream media ignore
3- Bloggers follow mainstream stories according to
their interests and filter stories according to their
interests.
Bloggers are gatekeepers for stories and issues,
opening the content that could otherwise be overlooked
by mainstream media.
Filter bloggers who focus specifically on topics covered
in the news media have been called gatewatchers.
13. How bloggers
differfrom
journalists
Bloggers fail to engage in the following journalistic
practices required of journalists:
Objective writing,
Avoiding becoming part of the news being covered
Directly quoting sources
Fact checking
Posting corrections
Receiving permission to post copyright material
Linking to original source material out of the blog

Editor's Notes
In Week 2 we examine a bit of the history of the development of the Internet, focusing on some key developments. We look at the breakdown of who uses the Internet in the United States and in the world. We examine the blogger and blogging as it relates to journalism, and conclude with decisions the writer makes about what structure to use.
They were inventing a way to save info and communication during a nuclear exchange, but they emailed each other about personal stuff. Email was the star within three years of the invention!
Foe each new media, the way people use the media shapes the development of the media regardless of the original purpose of the technology.
(read the full article in the Lakeland Library Nexis database—just plug in the title (Mapping the power of the printed word) in the search box).
“The next big thing in 1448 was a technology called “movable type”, invented for commercial use by Johannes Gutenberg, a goldsmith from Mainz (although the Chinese had thought of it first). The clever idea was to cast individual letters (type) and then compose (move) these to make up printable pages. This promised to disrupt the mainstream media of the day—the work of monks who were manually transcribing texts or carving entire pages into wood blocks for printing. By 1455 Mr. Gutenberg, having lined up venture capital from a rich compatriot, Johannes Fust, was churning out bibles and soon also papal indulgences (slips of paper that rich people bought to reduce their time in purgatory). The start-up had momentum, but its costs ran out of control and Mr. Gutenberg defaulted. Mr Fust foreclosed, and a little bubble popped.
Mr. Gutenberg died a pauper, having not lived to see the extraordinary changes his little invention would bring” (Among the Audience, 2006).

The creation of the Internet was a defense-funded response to the Russians. In 1957, USSR launches Sputnik, first artificial earth satellite. In response, US forms the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA), the following year, within the Department of Defense (DoD) to establish US lead in science and technology applicable to the military.
Ray Tomlinson (BBN) modifies email program for ARPANET where it becomes a quick hit. The @ sign was chosen from the punctuation keys on Tomlinson's Model 33 Teletype for its "at" meaning (March).
1979 Meeting between Univ of Wisconsin, DARPA, National Science Foundation (NSF), and computer scientists from many universities to establish a Computer Science Department research computer network (organized by Larry Landweber).
Another personal communication use of the Internet developed as “Talk.” Talk allows asynchronous conversations among many participants, thus taking advantage of the ability to connect with anyone, anywhere on a computer.
Fears that gaming taught violent behavior accompanied even the earliest games. But then, before video games, music was said to increase aggressive behavior.

The big jump for the Internet came in the 1990s when Tim Berners-Lee developed HTLM to allow images and graphics. In 1993, a grad student developed and released free to the public the Mosaic browser, the first Web browser allowing embedded images. Mosaic, the first easy-to-use graphical Web browser was created by Marc Andreessen at the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana. There were 1one million downloads after its release.
New forms of mediated interactions emerged: web boards, blogs, wikis, social network sites, video and photo sharing sites, and graphically intensive virtual worlds such as World of Warcraft and League of Legends.
Blogs - Personal, political, and anything else- by individuals and collectives appeared. Blog include a blogroll, a list of hyperlinks to other blogs that creates connections and drives traffic.
Social networking sites combine multiple modes of communication, as people use phones to check in and upload content, resulting in the rise of platforms and apps. Commercial platforms had commodified personal connections to provide profits for owners through advertising.
“Most cotemporary platforms use proprietary algorithms in order to determine which content is made visible to which users at which times (Baym, 2015, p.19).
In 1994-95 the National Science Foundation stopped its funding and the Internet became commercial for the first time as the World Wide Web opened access to people. By the end of the 1990s, most American were online, though a “digital divide” existed because poor people and rural people had less access. Research from that time shows that people able to use new media improved their lives in ways that people unable to use new media did not.
Statistics found by the Pew Internet & American Life Project, 2014, about Americans who use the Internet.
The United States developed the Internet, and Americans were the majority of users prior to the creation of HTML. For example, between 1993 and 1998, AOL subscribers grew from 200,000 to 8 million. In 1990 the European Organization for Nuclear Research had the first Web server online
By 2007, participants on the Web included more than 200 U.S. universities, 70 corporations, 45 government agencies, and 50 international organizations.
Keep in mind, the profession of journalism and our idea of “news” developed in the 19th century when news became a commodity to be sold and resold. Journalism in 2018 is changing, as reporters are increasingly presenting themselves as participants in the events they are covering.
Blogging empowers the ordinary citizen who previously had no access to media. Blogs find new audiences, and blogs test audiences for reactions.
When does it matter whether a blogger is a journalist? On legal issues, a journalist is held to a higher standard than a non journalist. Journalists have a right to protect their sources’ anonymity even in a court of law using Shield laws unavailable to non-journalists.
Traditionally, the courts defined a journalist as a person who earned a living from gathering and publishing information. Journalists are required to be objective and reliable or can be sued (along with the publication) for negligence.
Blogs rely on personal authenticity, and journalism relies on institutional credibility.
See the Everybody Writes textbook, pages 27 – 32, for the details on each of these steps in the writing process.
