“News Readings, News Readers”By: J.Fiske Presented By: Johanna, Jenessa, Adnan
Make Notes on these 3 Points: • 1: (Jenessa) News Paradox • 2: (Johanna) News is delivered through many voices allowing for multiple truths to be told about reality. • 3: (Adnan) News Framing
You Make The News! • What story would you frame around this news footage? Why? http://youtube.com/watch?v=-mx3Vq3r6hw
Her Soap Operas…HisNews • National News as Masculine Softer stories at the end meant to draw in female viewers for ‘Prime Time.’
Fact or Fiction? • News Professionals and Broadcasters looking for ‘Real’ news, NOT Fiction. • Program Structure Predetermined ex: Belgian Congo.
News is… • Recent (recency) • Familiar people – Elite, or through their social position • Public sphere • Negative • Politics, Economy, Foreign Affairs, Domesic, Occasional Stories, Sports.
Discussion • 1: What do you feel has influenced the change in news to be directed towards both men and women? • 2: What do you see as the benefits or downfalls of having a predetermined structure?
Incorporating ‘brutal’ Truth • News: A ‘Raw Reality’ • Clawback: Can be considered ‘Objective’ Potentially ‘disruptive’ events mediated to give explain reality and guarantee ‘truth.’
Truth and the News ReadersIndividual+Insitutional Voice =Reporter!
Exnomination + Inoculation • Exnomination= Management (no voice) • Only voice of News Reader= Reporter! • Inoculation= controlled radical voices • Ex: Osama Bin Laden
Metaphors…fun, fun, fun! • Helps to convey ‘reality’. http://www.leaonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1207/S15327868MS15 4_6?cookieSet=1 • Ex: War most popular metaphor in describing: • 3- Drama • 2- Sports • 1- POLITICS!!!
Discussion • What is your opinion on having different ‘news readers’ opinions? Does it: A- Lead to further disputes about whose is the correct view? B- Give everyone a story to connect to or understand?
Reality vs. News • News conventions portray reality proportionately and accurately? • Eg. Sound bytes, Newsprint • Framing problems?
The Hermeneutic Code • Who really narrates? • Is there a conspiracy? Ronald Barthes explains
Critical Thought • What can we learn from this article in terms of NEWS PRODUCTION and CONTENT ANALYSIS
