A national survey of 1,006 respondents found that 70.3% used local TV news as their primary source of news, followed by network TV news, newspapers, and radio news in that order. Use of talk radio, TV magazines, and grocery store tabloids was far less. A factor analysis showed five factors — TV news, radio, print media, computer media, and tabloids.

Full textAbstract:
Media environment, emerged from the traditional system of mass communications and enriched with new opportunities for the community, is intensively developing in the modern society. Scientists’ research shows that media defines modern existence, consciousness and values of anindividual and social groups. Media environment acts as the place of human existence and means of influencing his consciousness. The author characterizes the media environment as the social space for the library institution, reveals the possibilities of the public library as the leader of public opinion and identifies technological features of introducing information influence into the library media communications. With the development of the Internet technologies, mass communication has become open and accessible to the library community. Modern library simultaneously acts as an active user ofmedia content and as an actor creating its own media products for a wide audience. However, these opportunities are mainly used for internal purposes: to reflect the life of the institution and to disclose its information resources. The article justifies the possibility of strengthening the social position of the library by assuming the role of the local community information leader. The author comes to the conclusion, that social effectiveness of the library actor behavior in the media environment will be determined by two factors: the correspondence of the communication product to social demands and the power of information influence of the message and social consequences (actions).

Full textAbstract:
As a constantly connected environment via the Internet and mobile technology, the mobile village reconstructed the means by which content reaches a mass audience. To successfully navigate this environment, audiences must adjust to the new dynamics imposed by mobile technologies. This article examines mass media technologies and practices in an attempt to assess the practical impact of the mobile village within the production, distribution and consumption of media and information. Journalism is now judged less by the news it provides than by the process by which it is produced. Many proclaim the death of radio as traditional broadcast formats become antiquated, however, thanks to increased hardware mobility and bandwidth speeds, podcasts and music streaming services continue to draw listeners. Lastly, television, long a medium fixed in domestic space and oriented around synchronous mass consumption, now streams on demand to mobile devices via wireless Internet connections.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyzes the communication process of modern mass media.
Journalism, holding true to its methods of undestanding reality, turns to the
postmodern manner of writing. Dialogueness of mass communication is
built on different levels. Speech reflects contradictory processes, which occur
in our life and are accompanied by changing moral values and spiritual
guidelines. Language occurrences in different kinds of mass communication
break up the foundations of Russian culture. A new information environment
should be created in agreement with the historical traditions and
linguistic culture of the society.

Full textAbstract:
Media scholars as well as the public frequently use the terms “mass communication” and “mass media”, but the meaning of these terms is often ambiguous. While it is assumed that everyone knows what these terms mean, the few scholars who attempt to define these terms struggle to capture the essence of their meaning without including elements that are faulty, and this task is becoming even more difficult in the new media environment. We are left with the troubling question: What are the “mass” media? This review constructs an answer to this question in a four step process. The first step features a critical analysis of the literature to identify definitional elements used by scholars. These definitional elements are subjected to four screens that evaluate their utility in a second step. The third step adds elements missing from the literature so as to make the eventual definition more useful in the new media environment. Finally, the fourth step features the construction of a working definition of “mass” media.

Full textAbstract:
This study focuses on the coverage of environmental threats in the German-language media. The methodology of this study is based on the ecolinguistic approach, particularly the achievements of media ecology, identifying the harmonization of the media space as a priority for journalism and a relevant area for linguistic studies. The German-language media focuses on the environmental challenges caused by the war in Ukraine, the threat of imminent climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The effectiveness of their media presentation by the lexical and stylistic means is becoming relevant for linguistic research. The anthropocentric worldview of the human being causes a significant manipulative effect of anthropomorphic metaphor on the reader and helps to promote a conscious attitude to the environment. The distinguished models of metaphor and metonymy, used to increase the emotional plane of the described content, indicate the possibility of their use as a tool for awakening ecolinguistic consciousness. The socio- and psycholinguistic experiment determined the peculiarities of the German-speaking respondents' reception of publications on environmental issues. Representatives of the younger generation (mostly students) were interviewed, which allowed forming an idea of their interest in overcoming ecological problems and finding out popular sources of information about them. The impossibility of an immediate comprehensive expert assessment of the consequences of the war in Ukraine for all ecosystems determines further research into the means of media attention to this issue.

This paper is devoted to the “nature of image” in the new media environment. The author re-conceptualizes the image as a basis of textual, visual and audial culture. Two factors of this revision are explained: (1) the facilitation of the complex creation and consumption of communicative unities, or artifacts (complexes of video, audio, texts and other forms), (2) the ability to capture a massive interest for new forms of imagery in social networks and the internet (a research evidence of this interest). The theory of the image, presented in the writings of Jean-Luc Nancy, is applied to the actual facts of communicative exchange allowing to identify some new directions for the development of media aesthetic phenomena. The main empirical material of the article is the growing mass interest in video and audio clips, such as #oddlysatisfying and ASMR. The author uses this material to confirm Nancy’s idea on the concentration of image formation in an “invisible” zone (beyond the representation of the object itself: the image is interlined, it is between sounds, it is behind pictures).

The study aims to determine, that, media coverage is important to influence people for environmental awareness and taking action in the cases of environmental protection. Primary data analysis has done for graphical representation of data. Research shows that, a large number of respondents agreed that, media coverage can generate awareness to environmental issues and disaster management. So, from the statistical analysis, we can say that green journalism and environmental Journalists, as well as mass media are playing a vital role to protect the environment. Media has uncommon occasions to gain the societies and policy makers the value of biodiversity in giving financial and ecological services and thereby promote its conservation, sustainable use and impartial sharing of benefits.

Abstract This study aims to research mass media communication and multipolar relationships in public diplomacy by using announcement of China Air Defense Identification Zone (CADIZ) in November 2013 as a case. Based on importance of mass mediated public diplomacy, to examine wording and message structure, language analysis program of semantic and ego network is applied. In addition, considering the environment of Korean media, newspapers from democratic and conservative are selected. The CADIZ issue takes place in Northeast Asian region but reactions and the relations of the USA are mainly dealt with. The USA is closely connected to China and Korea and has an important influence as a consultant in the given situation. Moreover, Korean media keep monitoring Japan’s response to refer Korea’s response strategy. Semantic and ego network seem to be powerful when analyzing international conflicts. This research shows that international relationship can be a significant asset to public diplomacy. In short, analyzing multipolar relations seems essential to understand construction of related countries and seek to solve diplomatic conflicts.

Full textAbstract:
Changes in the media environment always lead to changes in the media system, which reflects a different quality of communication. The nature of actors, channels, effects becomes an object of attention of researchers of mass communications. The article deals with the problem of the transformation of the mass communication system, which includes both cinematography and fiction, which can be freely broadcast through various channels, including digital channels. The article considers a new concept, i.e. "communication product". It is understood as a result of professional activity in the field of public and mass communications for the production of a media product, an event product, an advertising and PR product. The media environment is currently characterized by its own messages. They can be built both in traditional newsmaking models (both in journalism and public relations), and in storytelling, narrative (both in advertising and media communications). The article considers such trends in the media environment as the use of hype content, memes and various fakes. The reasons for the emergence of media communications are revealed. There are technological reasons, as modern communication technologies can open access to information to all comers. There are social ones, as new media allows Internet users to actively participate in communications and selectively treat messages they receive. The characteristics of the phenomenon of media communications are distinguished, separating it from journalism, advertising and public relations. The notion of media communications as a process of creation, processing and broadcasting, as well as information exchange in individual, group, mass format through various channels of mass communication (mainly online) is being introduced into scientific circulation through various communication tools - verbal / non-verbal; auditory, audiovisual, visual.

Full textAbstract:
To better understand crowds and crowd control practices in the digital media environment, this article briefly probes two institutions that practice ‘crowd control’ online: a cybersecurity company called CrowdStrike and a social media analytics service called CrowdTangle. These two firms continue the discourses of crowd theory in the traditions of criminologist Scipio Sighele and crowd psychologist Gustave Le Bon, adjusted for the new affordances of digital technology. The digital media environment affords infrastructure for forensically individualizing and influencing mass behaviour in the styles of Foucauldian and Deleuzian discipline, control and ‘moulding’. The probe concludes by emphasizing the political stakes of increasingly sophisticated crowd control infrastructures made possible through digital media environments.

Full textAbstract:
The article considers the potential communication possibilities of such a new media phenomenon as constructive journalism / solution journalism in relation to its impact on the level of conflict-genicity of the social-communication space. the prospects of constructive journalism / solution journalism in overcoming the competition of classical journalism with social media and overcoming the crisis of traditional journalism are also analyzed. Reflections on the potential of traditional journalism in the aspect of reducing the level of conflict-genicity of the social and communication environment in the article unfold against the background of ideas about the receptive requests of the modern media audience for quality, verified, exclusive and useful information and appear to be justified and relevant in the context of the analysis of the communication potential of constructive journalism / solution journalism as a new media phenomenon. Constructive journalism / solution journalism is a new trend in the field of journalism, which is characterized by several fundamental features that give grounds for asserting that it is able to provide a new impetus to overcome competition with non-professional journalism and help professional media activity to get out of the crisis in which it found itself and satisfy the above-described audience requests. 1. Constructive journalism is a “revision” of journalistic intentions and opportunities for communicating with the media audience and restoring social dialogue. 2. Constructive journalism is a new approach to journalism. 3. Constructive journalism is a new journalistic proposal regarding the communicator in the process of mass communication. 4. Constructive journalism is an effective competition of professional mass media activity with the information activity of social media. Constructive journalism / solution journalism can be implemented in the form of separate materials in traditional mass media, separate sections in traditional mass media with the appropriate name, and also as separate media projects. Constructive journalism / solution journalism is able to reduce the conflict-genicity of the social communication environment because it has the potential and prospects to make the position of the media audience more adequate, reducing the level of its emotional instability and expanding the field of perceived and adequately seen phenomena, processes, issues of the current socio-cultural life. In the variant of constructive journalism, professional mass media activity can show, explain, explain the position of the “other”, so that it becomes less distant, less unacceptable, more tolerated where there is a prospect of avoiding collision and confrontation. Reducing the level of conflict-genicity of the social-communication space should become a special communication intention, which fits constructive journalism in particular.

Full textAbstract:
Nowadays, new media are being used in more and more fields, most notably in the communication industry, with endless online media and ever-evolving cell phone terminals appearing in our lives all the time and becoming an essential part of our lives. Under the influence of this background, the creation and dissemination of art have gradually become dependent on new media and have begun a profound transformation. On the one hand, the new media has promoted the circulation of art, making the originally niche art categories to the mass market; on the other hand, the expanding market and audience also play an important role in influencing art creation. Therefore, the creative thinking of art creators nowadays will also change accordingly with the change of the background of the times.

Full textAbstract:
The paper deals with the development of a new scientific subject, the axiology of mass media, which is, on the one hand, a practical discipline of philosophical theory of values, and on the other, a natural continuation of the recently developed axiology of journalism. The last one explores journalism as a source and retranslator of social values in all their subject and semantic diversity, and journalism itself as a social value, researching the principles and ways of assimilating of socio-cultural values by journalists, and the effectiveness and methods of their representation in the audience of media. The need to deepen the theory of value analysis of the media and to broaden the scope of study is caused by growing demands from society for understanding and evaluating the processes taking place in the modern media environment, which at present are not limited to the functioning of either traditional media or Internet publications. First, media processes have gained a certain and significant expansion due to the active invasion of the information space by the so-called “mass person”, the intensification of the presence in this space of former media figures – politicians, scientists, cultural figures, etc., the arrival of new ones – bloggers, regular authors of communities, etc. The content of the media environment got expanded – texts, music, videos, games; the number of media platforms increased – messengers, telegram channels, video hosting; the problem of interaction with artificial intelligence emerged. Second, it was due to the technological revolution in the information environment of society which has become digital and, thus, in its development has acquired a new quality. The value analysis of facts, phenomena and processes of digital media communications is one of the most important methods of satisfying society’s demands for new knowledge. Thus, the construction of mass media axiology is objectively predetermined. Consideration of the preconditions for the formation of a new scientific discipline is the subject of this study. The research is based on the study of philosophical discourse on axiology, as well as relevant publications by practitioners-journalists in their professional media.

The paper is devoted to the role of the mass media text in the modern system of higher education while training graduates in media field, linguists, philologists, teachers of literature and the Russian language. The authors substantiate the necessity to update the approaches to the use of mass media text in educational programs in connection with changes in ideological, socio-political, economic processes. Media literacy of a university graduate implies competent interaction with the information environment, modeling of their own information behavior, professional perception and evaluation of the information in the media. The paper analyzes the use of mass media text in the educational process from the point of view of different education process participants, and also suggests the organization of training graduates to work with mass media text in three vectors educational, scientific research and the vector of personal development. The authors of the study emphasize the importance of the use of media text in teaching linguistic courses in various areas of training and the necessity to redefine the approaches to student-research activities and educational work. The preparation of a university graduate should be adjusted to the current social demand: the modern media text has a significant impact on the individuals worldview, as well as on the formation of civic responsibility and patriotism.

Paper provides the analysis of state-owned and private media companies during parliamentary pre-election race in Georgia in 2020. An attempt to measure the influence of variously interpreted information by different media and how this process, precisely, affects elections was made in this work. It should be noted, the closer the elections are, the more aggressive and radical Georgian media-companies become in their relation to each other and to their audience on a whole.Political polarisation, as consequence of the fierce clash over political power, results in politization of all the social processes, and strongly affects information environment in Georgia. Despite following the democratic blueprint of state formation and announced course for the democratization of political processes, Georgian reality remains far distant from the set goals. Significant role in destabilization of the situation belongs to mass media, whose political activity prevents us from speaking about healthy political environment, nevertheless about flexible state-model in Georgia.

The article focuses on local media, which turned out to be closely linked to a number of forms of participatory journalism. The question of the specific status of such means of communication in media systems is raised. Analysis of the nature of mass communication suggests that local media operate on the boundary of two types of communication – the interpersonal and mass, that determines their integration into the life of social groups and the ease with which laymen can enter the process of mass information exchange. It is suggested that local media have the properties of fractals, which allows them to adapt to changes in the social environment.

Full textAbstract:
Media are an important pillar of political socialization; that is the way a person learns about the functions of democratic principles and institutions in their formative years and beyond. Changes in the social and media environments affect the way citizens become politically socialized. With the emergence of digital media, communication has continued to change towards a socially networked, algorithmic and highly personalized environment. This new, networked communication logic, in which information is shared ubiquitously, accessible and aligned to personal interest, reshapes the mechanism through which media use can impact political socialization outcomes. While cultivation of universal perceptions in the population through mass media becomes less likely, political role models, previously found mostly in mass media can now be met in citizen's own online communities. This entry shed light on the interplay of digital media use and socialization outcomes and explains how a networked communication logic enhance good governance in Nigerian.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the article is to observe the contemporary media system in the light of Luhmann’s media system, namely a specific function system of society which has witnessed ever greater internal complexity vis-a-vis an environment marked by the spread of the web and social network sites. From the viewpoint of sociocybernetics, the question of increased complexity can be addressed through an ecological approach in order to analyse the distinction between the mass media and the web – in its specific 2.0 evolution, characterized by user-generated content and algorithms. This approach allows to observe the reciprocal relations by preserving the autonomy of the two spheres without resorting to explanations that have to do with hybridization or the blur of the boundaries. In this sense the article analyses Facebook – as an example of web 2.0 operational logic – as a social system distinct from that of the mass media, where the first substantial difference depends on the role played by individuals in reproducing communication and on the role of the algorithm. In this sense mass media and the web are treated on the basis of their relationship of structural coupling by observing how they irritate, or disturb, each other and at the same time maintain their autonomy.

Full textAbstract:
There are constant social changes in the social structure and socio-cultural models in society. Social changes in communities are carried out with the help of new forms or elements from which positive socio-cultural transformations are expected. The dissemination of information by mass media in a socio-cultural environment affects both social changes in society and the formation of the principles of media justice and inclusiveness in it. Information can be perceived by people in different ways, depending on their interests and the ability of society to use information that is dynamically entering the media space. The very concepts of “inclusion in the media space” and “media justice” are hardly always felt and perceived by people in the process of interacting with the media. In turn, digital social media platforms contribute to the creation of various communities. The logic of the study conducted by the author leads to the conclusion that the development of communities of various interests, the media should focus on mentoring, sponsorship, inclusiveness and advocacy.

The subject of the study is the dynamics of the presence of key newsmakers in the news of the leading independent online media in Ukraine in order to understand the features of the digital media environment and the specifics of its transformation during the full-scale invasion. The development of modern media is caused by the “hybrid media system” (Chadwick, 2013). Under the influence of digitalization, social networks, and new media, mass media have been changing. The media are no longer the first to produce news, their dependence on the government and leaders’ opinions is increasing, and instead the government can communicate with society without media. In addition, the amount of attention that audiences are willing to pay to news is decreasing, and mass media is no longer addressing the mass audience, but rather different audiences, which in the digital environment discuss their own interests and needs. However, the peculiarities of the media environment in the times of the full-scale invasion have not been studied yet. The purpose of the research is to analyse the dynamics of the presence of key newsmakers in online mass media and to identify the features of the transformation of the Ukrainian digital media environment during the full-scale invasion by the Russian Federation. The research methodology provides an automated algorithm for monitoring content in media (Python programming language). The object of the study is the headlines of the leading quality Ukrainian media: “Ukrainska Pravda” (50200 headlines) and “Dzerkalo Tyzhnia” (41328) for October 2021 — October 2022. As the result of the study, it was established that before the full-scale invasion there were practically no permanent popular newsmakers, which would be ready to generate messages for mass media. Mainly the media covered “covid” and the statements of the newsmakers about it. After February 24, in the first period, Zelenskyi appeared in the spotlight, and his popularity increased significantly. Other official sources appeared as well: the General Staff and the regional administrations — to control the agenda both at the national and regional levels. Over time attention to Zelenskyi decreased and the need for war analytics was observed. Along with official sources, there was also a single independent one. The perspective of the research is to compare the presence of key newsmakers in online media and social media.

Full textAbstract:
Modern media not only (such as radio, newspapers, television or online journalism), but also the full range of media (e.g. theater, music, exhibitions, cinema, drama, opera, visual arts etc.) promote narrative – interpretive both the journalist and the audience the contexts of the realities referred to in the journalistic presentation. But with the introduction of holistic systems of ideologically united mass media, the narrative is no longer characterized by the temporality or length of interpretations. Contexts and narratives of mass media content no longer mask under assumptions or hypotheses a specific ideological, party, worldview position, which is far from thinking about the cognition of life, journalism, the work of a journalist. The once dualistic use of the context of the interpretive environment has turned into a non-constructivist model of pressure on the audience not through plots, but from fundamental ideological and ideological, and often direct, party proposals. It is proposed to consider the context as a basis for interaction and different media, which are not only united by common ideological narratives, but which have a certain center around which all the content is not loaded on the target audience. We have the effect of orbital mass media – within their content proposals there is an interaction of authors and audiences in order to distribute such content, which in the framework of informing about something or someone not so much improves media and audience interaction as an element of severe content pressure on the audience. Those journalistic broadcasts that are broadcast by these groups of media.

Full textAbstract:
This study aims to point out the main drawback with respect to the design of simulated body environments. Three media commonly used for the simulation of the identical body environment were selected, i.e., Kokubo’s simulated body fluid that simulates the inorganic component of human blood plasma, human blood plasma, and phosphate buffer saline. A comparison was performed of the effects of the media on collagen scaffolds. The mechanical and structural effects of the media were determined via the application of compression mechanical tests, the determination of mass loss, and image and micro-CT analyses. The adsorption of various components from the media was characterized employing energy-dispersive spectrometry. The phase composition of the materials before and after exposure was determined using X-ray diffraction. Infrared spectroscopy was employed for the interpretation of changes in the collagen secondary structure. Major differences in terms of the mechanical properties and mass loss were observed between the three media. Conversely, only minor structural changes were detected. Since no general recommendation exists for selecting the simulated body environment, it is necessary to avoid the simplification of the results and, ideally, to utilize alternative methods to describe the various aspects of degradation processes that occur in the media.

Full textAbstract:
This article focuses on the examination of mass media ethics. Mass communication involves the entire spectrum of society with various differences encompassing aspects of religion, education, age, and social status, and involves all that can be reached by mass media. Media serves as a means of communication and a source of information for the community, enabling every narrative and story to be managed and presented through the media whenever needed. Its influence can be both positive and negative for mass media users, whether in the context of communities, organizations, or companies that involve many people or audiences. In social, national, and democratic life, the freedom to express thoughts and opinions aligns with conscience and essential human rights. Governments enact regulations regarding media ethics to ensure that every media user is cautious in expressing and receiving opinions. Thus, through an examination of mass media ethics, a structured media environment can be created, avoiding ethical violations that may have serious consequences for those involved.

New Media has evolved as an interconnected network of audio, video and electronic communication that will blur the distinction between interpersonal and Mass communications. In this context, New Media has provided an alternate platform of expression for environmental communication. The adoption of new media has given a level playing field and has democratized the environmental communication and its debate. But on the other hand criticism exists on the spuriousness of the content and opinions given in this media and their objectivity. The following paper deals with the ‘environmental communication in the era of new media technologies’ and its impact. The paper focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of the use of new media for social and environmental communication.

В эпоху Интернета, особенно после появления социальных сетей и смартфонов, методы коммуникации и коммуникационные эффекты претерпели большие изменения, а роли и функции СМИ в обществе начали меняться. В этой статье обсуждается вопрос об изменениях, которые претерпели средства массовой информации в Китае, а также ключевые особенности современных СМИ Китая. Новые средства массовой информации, опирающиеся на информационные технологии Интернета, могут обеспечить быстрое распространение информации и обмен ею. Люди могут получать огромное количество богатой и разнообразной информации из разных стран и регионов мира, и они также могут выражать свои чувства, то, что они видели и слышали, в любое время и в любом месте на новой медиаплатформе, которая делает новости и любую другую информацию больше не ограниченными временем и пространством, а чрезвычайно насыщенными информацией. Резюмируя вышесказанное, стоит сказать, что новые медиа в Китае заменяют традиционные медиа, а если еще не заменили полностью, то влияют на трансформацию традиционных медиа, что вызывает появление в китайском медиа пространстве такие явления как интернет-телевидение, интернет-статьи. In the Internet era, especially after the advent of social networks and smartphones, communication methods and communication effects have undergone great changes, and the roles and functions of the media in society have begun to change. This article discusses the changes that the mass media have undergone in China, as well as the key features of modern Chinese media. New mass media based on Internet information technologies can ensure the rapid dissemination and exchange of information. People can receive a huge amount of rich and diverse information from different countries and regions of the world, and they can also express their feelings, what they have seen and heard, anytime and anywhere on a new media platform that makes news and any other information no longer limited by time and space, but extremely saturated with information. Summarizing the above, it is worth saying that new media in China are replacing traditional media, and if they have not yet been completely replaced, they affect the transformation of traditional media, which causes such phenomena as Internet television and Internet articles to appear in the Chinese media space.

Full textAbstract:
Mechanisms of interaction between mass communication and the hierarchy of society are considered. It was found that as a result of the action of the mechanisms of mass communication effects and counter-effects, society is faced with a double process. The possibility of personalized information flow offered by digital media provides ample space for underprivileged social groups to choose media content that matches their own construction of reality. Environments in this context significantly contribute to the strengthening of the heterarchical features of society and the semiotic power of each representative of the audience against the meanings permitted from above. However, the circumstances under which this clearly democratic characteristic of mass communication practice leads to the fact that democratized social groups become increasingly large and face only such communication content that corresponds to the philosophy and expectations of their group or their environment are also investigated. This worldview, mediated by means of mass communication, transformed into a real construction of its environment, contains a danger, because it does not condition the skills with the help of which other clusters of society, which are differently positioned in the social hierarchy, can gain the worldview experience of this social group and vice versa. It is argued that, in this sense, the means of mass communication can play a significant role in creating social inequality in the hierarchical structure of society. Keywords: cluster, communication, content, hierarchy, media, society.

Mass media has an important position in people's lives, so mass media is placed as mass communication which acts as a communicator and agent of change, being a pioneer of change in the public environment that can influence audiences through messages such as information, entertainment, education and other messages and accessible to the public at large. As a form of the importance of media can be seen from the influence felt by the public, starting from the cognitive, effective, to conative aspects of the mass media and the negative-positive impact of social media. Even though the position and role of the media are very important, the community must also be careful with media remember that the nature of the media is so flexible. Negative values of the role of the media in Indonesia can occur either from the mass media or social media, so there needs to be attention from each party, both from the media manager to the community itself. The participation of several parties in paying attention to the media is expected to filter out negative things that might occur.

Child labor is the social phenomena that not only exist in Indonesia but also in other developing countries. These children work in several sectors including in the small industrial sector. As a young generation, they also must be able to compete in the work world. Therefore, aspiration achievement is an urgent matter and must be considered by stakeholder. On the other hand, the influence of globalization is increasingly global, especially in the field of communication. Representations from this field include on the mass media. Child labor who lives in the global era is also very familiar with the mass media. The study aimed to reveal the influence of information on radio, television and family environment on aspirations achievement of child labor at the leather industry handicraft center in Wukirsari, Imogiri, Bantul. The population of this study was child workers aged 10-14 years, who worked in the leather industry handicraft centers in Wukirsari, Imogiri, Bantul and were still taking study in school, which had a total of 119 child workers. Questionnaire instruments used to obtain data of all variable. The regression analysis technique used to test the hypothesis. The results of the study showed that there was a significant positive influence on the habit to follow information from the mass media and the family environment on the aspirations of child laborers at the leather industry handicraft center in Wukirsari.

The article is devoted to the social and environment and information. The social environment, through the transmission of purposeful information blocks, forms an individual, instilling in him the qualities and properties necessary for optimal functioning in a given society and in a given social group. These goals are promoted by a system of constantly working information transmission channels and, first of all, the mass media. As soon as the information reaches the addressee through the media, social information is included in the process of forming views and opinions, attitudes to certain social values. It is shown that after receiving information, a person can change his point of view on certain events or facts. Moreover, this interaction (influence) can be almost imperceptible, the process passes latently, through quantitative accumulation, but over time, this leads to the fact that quantitative accumulation is accompanied by a qualitative change.

Full textAbstract:
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: The aim of this paper is to compare professional and amateur news media (Telegram) coverage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and to determine the quality of this coverage. THE RESEARCH PROBLEM AND METHODS: The popularity of Telegram has been growing since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. To describe the digital media environment in wartime, it is important to observe the activity of both professional and amateur media. Webpages containing news texts were exported with Python programs, and news sources were processed using regular expressions. THE PROCESS OF ARGUMENTATION: At the beginning of the digital platform era there were hopes of a symbiotic relationship between professional media and amateur digital platforms, where the latter would provide more diverse content, thus helping some ignored groups to be heard by the media. As for Telegram, it has a growing number of users and channels, but there are almost no restrictions regarding content. Thus, together with some “alternative” and “ignored” voices, production of harmful content on Telegram is observed around the world: hate speech, extremism, racism, conspiracy theories and propaganda. In Ukraine, Telegram is the most popular source of information during the full-scale Russian invasion and Ukrainians trust it, therefore its contribution to informing people should be analysed. RESEARCH RESULTS: The conducted analysis has demonstrated that popular amateur news media mostly fail to provide clear references to news sources in the war period (in March to October 2022, only every third to fifth post contained a clear reference to a news source). On the other hand, the most popular mass media and amateur mass media sources are mostly the same: media resources connected with the president and the government, verified military sources, etc. CONCLUSIONS, INNOVATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The scarcity of news sources given in Telegram posts confirms previous observations about the low quality of content on Telegram. However, in some cases Telegram channels use reliable official or professional media news sources. Thus, some additional steps are needed to improve the situation: legislative changes for Telegram channels, ownership transparency, further monitoring of content quality, and media literacy campaigns for channels’ audiences.

With digitalization, the very concept of genre is in doubt: is the world wide web, Facebook, or the writing on its walls the genre? This article situat es genre in relation to the concepts of meta-media and meta-communication. First, I characterize the computer and the internet as metamedia, incorporating previous genres of embodied communication as well as mass communication. Second, I describe genres as a variety of meta-communication, which serves to configure communication in the first place. In conclusion, I discuss whether and how a category of meta-genres might help to account for some distinctive features of the digital media environment.</p>

Currently, all types of the mass media under the influence of the social media experience changes caused by the technologies in the processes of obtaining and consuming the information. The article reveals the representation of the local media of Latvia in the electronic environment, mainly in social networks. The use of social media is analysed in the context of theory of innovations diffusion, considering social media as a novelty in the local media space. The empirical research has revealed that the local media do not implement all the advantages which are possible to develop within the digital environment. First of all, at the level of interactivity, the media do not offer the material which may provoke a comment or a feedback from the user. Secondly, the personalization allows seeing in detail whether the local media were able to adopt innovation and to inform the audience about it or not. It means that a particular interest is necessary to adopt an innovation. Thirdly, the potential convergence of the Internet and the traditional media mostly is seen at the level of images and text. The social networks for local media in this case use the most necessary opportunities; wider activities are performed in the traditional environment.

New media arrived at the end of the 1980s with "electronic globalization". Today, they rule the communication sphere. They have changed our understanding of using the media, they have changed the status of the "old" mass media, and they have even influenced the sovereignty of states! What have the new media brought us? Although we use them, which is a big shift compared to the mass media that we did not "use", the new media do not become ours! The needs of new media are commercially imposed. We use new media with the illusion of using them for our own communication needs and purposes, and at the same time turning into consumers of goods and services. It is still difficult to achieve the fulfillment of our civil, fast and competent involvement in the public affairs of our environment.

In the conditions of market economy, special role is played by mass media, since they represent not only a platform for promoting any category of goods and services (permitted by the country’s legislation), but also are the key channel for advertising consumer goods manufactured in any other economic sector. The current state of affairs led to the dominance of the segment of commercially oriented mass media in the modern media environment, which usually are part of the media holding and aim to benefit by any possible means, most of the time through publication of advertising materials. The subject of this article is the processes of commercialization and monopolization as the crucial factors that entailed the transformation processes in media environment, first in the United States, and later in the Russian Federation. The scientific novelty of this research consists in detailed description of the consequences of these processes, determination of the degree of influence of the global media market upon mass media of both countries, and outlining further trends in the development of journalism under such conditions. The conclusion is drawn that the lofty aims of serving public interests, creating objective and independent content, and providing adequate coverage of the events fully depend on the media owners. Therefore, open competition, wide range of offers on the market, and variety of media choices in essence are the nonexistent phenomena, namely die to commercialization and monopolization processes that characterize modern Russian and US mass media.

The present research aims to study the effectiveness of the envelope components of colonial dwellings in maintaining a comfortable indoor thermal environment. In hot and dry areas, extreme outdoor air temperatures compel designers to provide a better indoor thermal condition which remains a rather delicate task to achieve such as in the case of the city of Biskra. The heritage buildings were constructed in the colonial period in the Biskra region; the colonial district buildings are built with local materials such as mud bricks and stones that have a large thermal mass; these materials are the main component of the walls of the outer exterior skin. Onsite measurement campaigns were carried out to record air temperatures inside the inhabited area for 24 hours. Thereafter, the collected data were compared with the outdoor air temperatures to assess the effect of the envelope impact on the temperature variation. The important results remain in the envelope’s crucial effect to achieve thermal comfort using local materials with a high thermal mass.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The concept of ‘sharp power’ has recently emerged as a reaction to the assertiveness of authoritarian regimes. It serves to underline the complexity of challenges which are posed by authoritarian regimes, referring to diverse front lines in the overall ‘battle’, be they culture, education, or the media. The latter, according to Dmitri Trenin, “has become such a crowded battlefield”. This paper attempts to fill in the information gap regarding Russia’s ‘sharp power’ manifestations in Lithuania’s mass media and focuses on NATO related messages in particular. The paper presupposes that messages which evoke an air of support for Russia’s foreign and security policy tend to pass through to Lithuania’s mass media, and argues that, as a result of the insufficient activity by Lithuania’s mass media in terms of forming an independent perception of Russia vis-à-vis NATO, the preconditions for possible manifestations of Russia’s use of sharp power are therefore created. The article is organised into four parts. The first section sets out a theoretical framework for the analysis which focuses on the concept of sharp power. Then the research methodology is outlined. The third section presents features of the informational environment of Lithuania in 2016 and 2019. The final, and most elaborated, section investigates messages which apparently serve to support Russia’s foreign and security policy in terms of the NATO‘s topic in Lithuania’s mass media based on the aforementioned criteria.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the concept of mass culture as a cultural universal in its modern manifestations and phenomena. The author consistently develops the thesis about the mediatization of mass culture in the information space. The purpose of this work is to identify the characteristic features of mass culture, as well as current trends in this environment. Mass culture is attributed to the division into ranks from “low” to “high”, but today there is a tendency to erase these facets. The complexity and inconsistency of this phenomenon, the vague definitions of the concept, the mechanisms of its correlation with other forms of culture encourage researchers to look for new approaches and refine the old ones in an effort to develop a common definition. The serial production of mass culture is analyzed, which acts as an important element of the education system, socialization and upbringing. Attention is focused on the positive aspects of the development of mass culture. The necessity of further study of the concepts of mass culture and media in their interrelation and interdependence is indicated.

Full textAbstract:
Понятие «доступная (городская) среда» - это социальное явление, направленное на создание и улучшение условий для всех маломобильных групп населения, включая людей с инвалидностью. В настоящее время люди с ограниченными возможностями активно вовлечены в процесс массовой коммуникации. СМИ как отражают, так и во многом формируют ценностные ориентации общества, в том числе и отношение населения к проблеме инвалидов. Инициаторами формирования доступной среды могут стать представители власти, негосударственные организации и отдельные заинтересованные лица. Говоря о доступной среде, следует учитывать все категории населения, испытывающие временные или постоянные трудности при самостоятельном передвижении или ориентировании в пространстве. В работе рассматривается роль СМИ и их вклад в формирование доступной среды и равного общества для всех граждан. Актуальность проблемы доступной среды, как и любого другого аспекта социальной жизни, определяется присутствием и развитием данной темы в средствах массовой информации. Наше исследование заключается в анализе материалов СМИ по заявленной тематике и влиянии журналистики на аудиторию в вопросах, касающихся создания безбарьерной среды и отношения к инвалидам. The notion of accessible (barrier-free) environment is a social one aimed at the creation and improvement of the conditions for all low-moblity groups of population including disabled people. At present time these groups of population are actively involved in the process of mass communication. Mass media both reflect and form values of society including the attitude to the problems of invalids. The formation of accessible environment can be initiated by the authorities, independent organizations or certain interested people. Talking about this problem, we must take into account all the categories of population having temporary or permanent difficulties with self-transportation or spatial orientation. In present work we study the role and impact of mass media in formation of accessible environment and society of equal rights and opportunities. The relevance of this problem as well as other aspects of social life is defined by the presence and development of this subject in mass media. Our research is aimed at analysis of mass media publications on the declared subject and their influence on the readership in the issues which refer the creation of barrier-free environment and the attitude to invalids in general.
