Abstract:
The concepts of media accountability, media criticism and media governance are analysed and discussed in a Swedish setting; how they relate to each other and interact. This is achieved by using various methods – a survey to editors, analy- ses of parliamentary debates, interviews, direct observation and document stu- dies – in studying different stakeholders, media representatives and governance conditions in Sweden during the last 70 years. The findings point in a direction of dynamic complexities with a central role for media criticism. The type, level and intensity of media criticism may affect the functioning of the media governance structure and is a vital part of the media accountability process. The media governance structure – which in addi- tion to media criticism is influenced by international conditions, technological developments and political factors – may in turn affect the media accountability process. In this process, media representatives aim to defend obtained positions of societal influence, achieve and maintain positive PR and enhance editorial quality at the same time. Media criticism may start a substantial media accountability process if the discontent is widespread and not countered by market approval or political iner- tia. The process is facilitated if the critique is connected to more than one frame of accountability and if stakeholders see opportunities for dual objectives. Very strong and widespread media criticism may be difficult for media organizations to neglect. The accountability process in Sweden has become less dependent on corpora- tive negotiations between organized interests and political assemblies. Instead, two other tendencies seem to have emerged: on the one hand a possibility for media organizations to favour such accountability processes that they are able to control, and on the other hand the rise of a rich variety of sometimes short-lived accountability instruments that may develop for specific occasions and are difficult to control.

Abstract:
The rise of social media represents a new challenge to the traditional media industry. Some traditional media companies either shy away on the idea of utilizing social media to enhance their services, but many others actually embrace this as an opportunity to reposition themselves within the industry. This study tries to figure out the extent of the proliferation of social media by the traditional players. The research approach focused on case study methodology through quantitative and qualitative methods. Record analysis of social media utilization by the traditional media companies represented the quantitative method. As many as 483 media companies from radio, television and printed media companies were sampled, they are companies under twelve national media conglomerates and one largest independent media group in Indonesia. Availability and a few simple statistics of web sites and three most popular social media platforms were recorded. The interviews with three different media companies and observations represented the qualitative method. The purpose is to understand the background motives of the social media utilization. The study reveals that utilization of web sites and social media platforms by the traditional media companies is quite extensive. The result revealed that 72% media companies have a web site, and more than 90% have Facebook accounts. Twitter, while not as popular as Facebook, still has as much as 73.6% of sampled media companies joining the platform. YouTube is the lowest of the three platforms with 27.3%. Apart from the high adoption rate, the traditional media companies also actively participate in the conversation, especially for Facebook and Twitter. The interviews showed that the extent of digitalization is quite extensive. The three media have their own digital strategy, which involved integration with their traditional platforms, customer engagement and monetization. The utilization of web and social media platforms Indonesia in general, and by the traditional media were caused by some factors such as media democratization, rising number of middle class, good economic growth, and high mobile penetration among others.
Uppkomsten av sociala medier representerar en ny utmaning för den traditionella medieindustrin. En del traditionella medieföretag har undvikit att använda sig av sociala medier för sina tjänster, medan andra företag har omfamnat de sociala medierna och använder sig av dem för att om möjligt ompositionera sig inom industrin. Denna studie försöker utforska spridningen av sociala medier inom traditionell media i Indonesien. Studien är genomförd som en fallstudie med användning av både kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod. En analys baserad på användningen av sociala medier av traditionella medieföretag representerar den kvantitativa metoden. Så många som 483 medier från radio, tv och tryckta medier är med i urvalet. De 483 medieföretagen i urvalet är alla antingen under ett av de tolv nationella mediekonglomeraten eller under den största oberoende mediekoncernen i Indonesien. Tillgänglighet och enkel statistik över användandet av webbplatser eller hemsidor, samt användandet av de tre mest populära sociala medierna (Twitter, Facebook och Youtube), har registrerats. Intervjuer med tre olika medieföretag samt observationer representerar den kvalitativa metoden. Syftet med studien är att förstå bakgrundsmotiven till den sociala medieanvändningen i Indonesien. Undersökningen visar att användningen av webbplatser och sociala medier av de traditionella medieföretagen är ganska omfattande. Resultaten visade att 72 % av medieföretagen har en egen hemsida, och mer än 90 % av företagen har Facebook-konton. Twitter, vilket visade sig vara mindre populärt än Facebook, visade sig fortfarande användas av så mycket som 73,6 % av företagen i urvalet. YouTube är det minst populära mediet av de tre med ett genomslag på 27,3 %. Resultaten visade inte bara på en ovanligt hög användningsfrekvens, utan de visade även på att företagen aktivt deltar i samtal med kunderna, särskilt via Facebook och Twitter. Intervjuerna visade att digitaliseringsgraden är ganska omfattande. De tre medieföretagen har sina egna digitala strategier, som innebär en integration med sina traditionella plattformar, kundengagemang och intäkter. Användningen av webbplatser och sociala medier av de traditionella medierna i Indonesien har orsakats av vissa faktorer; bland annat av en stor mediedemokratisering, ett stort antal personer i den indonesiska medelklassen, en god ekonomisk tillväxt samt av en hög mobilpenetration.

Abstract:
Media & Communication
Ph.D.
This dissertation contributes to the history of media literacy by tracing the emergence and development of media literacy concepts and practices in Media&Values magazine (1977-1993), which spoke across discourse communities of scholars, teachers, activists and media professionals to build a media literacy movement in the United States. Media literacy evolved in changing contexts of media studies and education discourses as well as changes in media technologies, industries, politics, and popular culture. Taking a genealogical approach to historical inquiry, this study uses discourse analysis to describe how Media&Values constructed media literacy as a means for reform, as a practice of understanding representation and reality, and as pedagogy of social analysis and inquiry. These constructions position media literacy as interventions in power, articulating agency through addressing institutions, demystifying ideology, and negotiating identities. This history provides perspective on debates across diverse strands of practice in the current field of media literacy education.

Abstract:
Background:  Over the years, traditional entrepreneurs started businesses due to either pull or push factors within their environments. Research has been carried out in profiling different types of entrepreneurs and their characteristics. The social media influencers are new forms of entrepreneurs who recently appeared due to changes in the technological environments. The existence of social media platforms has enhanced the possibility of entrepreneurial activities online. The platforms are available for everyone, but some have more entrepreneurial orientation or characteristics than others.  Purpose: The aim of this research is to measure the entrepreneurial orientation and the characteristics of social media users, compare social media influencers with other social media users, to determine if differences exist. Methods:       This research uses the Individual Entrepreneurial Orientation scale (Bolton & Lane, 2012) and the Individual Personality Traits measuring scale (Al Mamun, Bin Yusoff, & Ibrahim, 2018). This is a deductive study, testing the above-mentioned theories on social media users, and a quantitative study aided using data collected from online survey. Conclusion:   The results of this study show that Social Media Influencer have higher entrepreneurial traits than non-Social Media Influencers.  The result also supports the three-factor structure and satisfactory reliability of the IEO scales and subscales. Subsequently, I found out that non-SMIs do create online contents and carry out entrepreneurial activities online too.

A great number of people spend on social networks more than 2 hours per day. And in general its content raises great concerns from a security point of view. As a new tendency, information usually provokes (especially among adolescents and young people) the destruction of universal values, personal models of behavior, undermine the idea of morality and ethics. Using social networks people face with inaccurate information which forms incorrect knowledge and perceptions in the audience. This risk is one of the most common on social media. This can be any information: from distortion of news to incorrect indication of the author of any quotation. What is more, people with a lack of media literacy can be endangered with mind influence, especially in political and social spheres.
Велика кількість людей проводить в соціальних мережах більше 2 годин на день. І в цілому їх зміст викликає великі побоювання з точки зору безпеки. Як нова тенденція, інформація зазвичай провокує (особливо серед підлітків і молоді) руйнування загальнолюдських цінностей, особистісних моделей поведінки, підриває уявлення про мораль і етику. Використовуючи соціальні мережі, люди стикаються з недостовірною інформацією, яка формує у аудиторії невірні знання і уявлення. Цей ризик є одним з найпоширеніших в соціальних мережах. Це може бути будь-яка інформація: від спотворення новин до невірного зазначення автора будь-якої цитати. Більш того, люди з недостатньою медіаграмотності можуть наражатися на небезпеку впливу на свідомість, особливо в політичній і соціальній сферах.

Abstract:
The Media Arts Building for a small Hawaiian college was designed following the guidelines set forth in the Hawaii Loa College International Design Competition. The central issue of this design problem concerned the dualism of the South Pacific cultures with the high-technology characteristic of the twenty-first century. Large characteristic columns were used to give the building complex a unique identity to correlate with the concerns for culture. In response to high-technology, the building site accepted the satellite dishes as artistic forms in the sculpture gardens. The campus plan was reorganized centering concern on the college as a place of education which led to the formation of a central quadrangle.

Developments and advances in information and communications technology are boosting a convergence of computing, media, and telecommunications. This is dramatically affecting every aspect of society from technology designers and content creators to users. The design-to-product cycle time continues to decrease as new markets open up, and windows of opportunity exist for those who can move fast and make the right connections. Challenges and opportunities exist in each area of the convergence, but one thing is here to stay: being digital.

Abstract:
Nell’ultimo decennio è emerso un nuovo utilizzo dei droni tramite la realizzazione di spettacoli visivi composti da sciami di droni luminosi. Questi sistemi di droni performativi differiscono da quelli utilizzati in altre applicazioni come le riprese-fotografie o le ispezioni aeree, perché richiedono il volo simultaneo di numerosi robots in formazioni strutturate. I movimenti altamente sincronizzati e coordinati necessitano di un sistema di controllo autonomo avanzato completamente differente rispetto al tradizionale controllo manuale. I movimenti e le dinamiche luminose vengono progettati digitalmente con programmi di animazione 3D per dare luogo ad una comunicazione visiva che ha molte analogie con i contenuti creati per i nostri display personali. Questa applicazione accelera l’occupazione dello spazio aereo pubblico e richiede sistemi robotici a sciame altamente sicuri ed affidabili. Si è iniziato il lavoro di sistematizzazione di questa nuova disciplina analizzando le esperienze più significative realizzate. Si propone il termine di Aerial Media Design come settore di riferimento, che contiene le iniziative che indagano l’uso di sciami di droni per finalità visive, che integrano nello spazio aereo pubblico nuovi fenomeni di identità culturale creando così nuovi rapporti tra lo spazio dell’aria, l’osservatore ed il luogo fisico. Quest’ultimo racchiude una importante chiave di lettura di questa nuova disciplina; esso non è solo il contenitore, cornice, palcoscenico e sistema di riferimento, ma le caratteristiche dell’ambiente, dell’architettura e del contesto determinano, nella loro assenza, lo spazio utile per l’interazione robotica collaborativa che da forma a una rappresentazione volumetrica. Il design visivo nello spazio aereo ha molte analogie con la Motion Graphics, utilizzando in particolare, come strumento progettuale, l’animazione tridimensionale. Questa nuova modalità espressiva sollecita la ricerca di un proprio linguaggio visivo, di nuovi strumenti e metodi, per poterla applicare a progettazioni culturali, educative ed artistiche; l’inesistenza di piattaforme accessibili ed aperte avrebbe escluso qualsiasi sperimentazione . La sfida di questa prima ricerca è stata innovare lo stato dell’arte nell’ambito delle piattaforme tecnologiche esistenti sviluppando un drone luminoso di nuova generazione chiamato LuminousBee: basato su progetti software e protocolli aperti, dotato delle migliori tecnologie e con caratteristiche superiori di miniaturizzazione, leggerezza, integrazione e autonomia. Il sistema è stato completato con lo sviluppo di un plugin per un software di animazione tridimensionale, affinché sia possibile gestire la progettazione dei contenuti visivi e l’esportazione delle traiettorie e dei dati luminosi. La prima architettura sviluppata ha permesso di sperimentare la trasmissione realtime dei comandi durante l’applicazione alle LuminouBee trovando i punti deboli dell’attuale tecnologia disponibile. In una seconda fase l’intero sistema è stato integrato con un software di controllo a terra di terze parti con una modalità offline che ha risolto i problemi dell’implementazione precedente. Questo software dedicato per l’esecuzione finale è basato anch’esso sullo stesso progetto Open Source dei droni Luminousbee ed utilizza il medesimo protocollo di comunicazione. Con la realizzazione di questa piattaforma si rende disponibile una tecnologia specifica per comunicazione aerea con sciami di droni adatta ad accogliere future modifiche e implementazioni per prevedere l’integrazione di ICT esterne, quali l’implementazione di nuovi messaggi e comandi Mavlink per interagire con sistemi complementari e supportare nuove modalità operative e strumenti tecnologici richiesti da scenari applicativi da sviluppare.
In the last decade, a new use of drones has emerged through the creation of visual spectacles composed of swarms of light drones. These performative drone systems differ from those used in other applications such as photo-shooting or aerial inspections because they require the simultaneous flight of numerous robots in structured formations. The highly synchronized and coordinated movements require an advanced autonomous control system that is completely different from traditional manual control. The movements and light dynamics are digitally designed with 3D animation programs to result in a visual communication that has many similarities to the content created for our personal displays. This application accelerates the occupation of public airspace and requires highly secure and reliable robotic swarm systems. Work has begun on systematizing this new discipline by analyzing the most significant experiences made. The term Aerial Media Design is proposed as a field of reference, which contains the initiatives that investigate the use of drone swarms for visual purposes, which integrate in the public airspace new phenomena of cultural identity thus creating new relationships between the space of the air, the observer and the physical place. The latter holds an important key to this new discipline; it is not only the container, frame, stage and reference system, but the characteristics of the environment, architecture and context determine, in their absence, the space useful for collaborative robotic interaction that gives shape to a volumetric representation. Visual design in aerial space has many analogies with Motion Graphics, using in particular, three-dimensional animation as a design tool. This new expressive modality solicits the research of its own visual language, of new tools and methods, in order to apply it to cultural, educational and artistic projects; the inexistence of accessible and open platforms would have excluded any experimentation. The challenge of this first research was to innovate the state of the art within the existing technological platforms by developing a new generation luminous drone called LuminousBee: based on open software projects and protocols, equipped with the best technologies and with superior characteristics of miniaturization, lightness, integration and autonomy. The system has been completed with the development of a plugin for a three-dimensional animation software, in order to manage the design of visual contents and the export of trajectories and luminous data. The first architecture developed allowed to experiment the realtime transmission of commands during the application to LuminouBee finding the weaknesses of the current available technology. In a second phase the whole system was integrated with a third party ground control software with an offline mode that solved the problems of the previous implementation. This dedicated software for the final implementation is also based on the same Open Source project as the Luminousbee drones and uses the same communication protocol. The realization of this platform makes available a specific technology for aerial communication with swarms of drones suitable to accommodate future changes and implementations to provide for the integration of external ICT, such as the implementation of new messages and Mavlink commands to interact with complementary systems and support new operating modes and technological tools required by application scenarios to be developed.

Abstract:
Studiens syfte är belysa och tydliggöra vilka diskurser som är rådande om människor som hamnat i arbetslöshet fas 3 och se hur dessa diskurser konstrueras i svenska dagstidningar. De tidningarna som vi använt oss av i analysen är Aftonbladet, Expressen, Dagens Nyheter, Göteborgs Posten och Svenska Dagbladet.   Metoden består utav ett integrerat teragerat perspektiv med begrepp ur den socialkonstruktionistiska idétraditionen avseende framställandet av den arbetslöse kopplat till den mediala exponeringen av arbetslösa i fas 3. Vi använder oss främst av begrepp ur diskursteorin och kritisk diskursanalys. I analysen används begreppet subjektspositioner ifrån diskurspsykologin.   Slutsatser i studien är att de mediala diskurser som råder om arbetslösa i fas 3 till stora delar är ideologiska. De mediala diskurserna positionerar de arbetslösa negativt samt tillskriver dessa olika egenskaper med negativa förtecken.   Resultatet i studien visar på två olika diskurser, den strukturella diskursen och den individualistiska diskusen. Diskurserna kämpar om tolkningsföreträde av den rådande uppfattningen kring jobb- och utvecklingsgarantins tredje fas. Den första textanalysen belyser en föreställning om den arbetslöse i fas 3 som sammankopplas med exploatering av den arbetslöse samt arbetslöshet och utanförskap. I studiens djupare analys, redogörs det för en diskursiv kamp som har uppstått i media. De ideologiska skillnader som genomsyras i tidningsartiklarna berörs tillsammans med en redogörelse för subjektspositionerna.

Abstract:
Tidigare studier har visat att när media valt att endast fokusera på negativa händelser samtidigt som positiva händelser utelämnats om en plats kunde detta bidra till att ett område kunde få ett dåligt rykte. Syftet med studien var att ta reda på hur media har beskrivit och rapporterat nyheter om Navet samt rapportera om brottsstatistik i Sundsvall och på Navet. I studien tillämpades kvantitativ metod genom en innehållsanalys och data var sammanställd i SPSS. Studiens resultat visade beskrivningar från media av Navet. Datan baserades på ett kodningsformulär som utgjorde om medias rapportering om Navet samt undersökte variabeln"Geografiskt område" gällande narkotikarelaterade artiklar i Sundsvall stad. För studien användes 96 artiklar om Navet samt 82 artiklar gällande variabeln "Geografiskt område" i Sundsvall stad. De artiklar som analyserades var hämtade från Sveriges Radio, SundsvallsTidning samt Sveriges Television och var publicerade år 2016. Resultaten från uppsatsen byggde även på brottsstatistik från Polisen gällande brott i Sundsvall centrum och narkotikabrott i Sundsvall stad. Resultaten visade att Navet framställdes i media som en negativ plats och att media valde att fokusera på droger och otrygghet i högst utsträckning. Data analyserades utifrån teorin Ecological Labeling vilket möjligen kunde förklara hur media kan ha bidragit till att Navet kan ha stämplats som en negativ och otrygg plats i Sundsvall.

Abstract:
Under 2017 ökade den mediala rapporteringen om sugardejting i Sverige i samband med att sugardejtingsajten Rich Meet Beautiful lanserades i Sverige. Sugardejting presenteras som ett nytt fenomen men vid en närmare undersökning visar det sig att sugardejting är en fråga som diskuterats och uppmärksammats i Sverige tidigare. Tidigare forskning visar att sugardejting är ett fenomen som länge förekommit i Afrika, söder om Sahara. Det är framförallt ekonomiska faktorer som lyfts fram som förklaring till varför det förekommer, vilket även observerats i studier utförda i Nordamerika. Hur fenomenet sugardejting presenteras och diskuteras i media har ännu inte uppmärksammats inom forskning. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka och analysera hur fenomenet sugardejting framställs i svensk media. För att möta detta syfte har kritisk diskursanalys tillämpats, framförallt utifrån Faircloughs och Foucaults teorier. Studien baseras på svenska tidningsartiklar och medierapportering mellan mars 1994 och december 2019. Medierapporteringarna har studerats och analyserats utifrån kritisk diskursanalys med hjälp av Faircloughs tredimensionella modell och olika teman har identifierats. Det framkommer hur orden inom sugardejting används för att beskriva någon i artiklarna, eller medierapporteringar där de som sugardejtar får berätta sin historia. Detta samtidigt som det i analysen ses en ökad medierapportering i samband med en ökad problematiserande syn på sugardejting, där främst polisen och journalister har makten över diskursen. De som ger ett beskrivande perspektiv med en mer positiv bild får mindre plats i media med tiden. Den dominerande diskursen är den som framställer sugardejting som prostitution och som ett socialt problem, som grundar sig i psykisk ohälsa.
In 2017 the media coverage on sugar dating in Sweden increased as Rich Meet Beautiful launched its site in Sweden. Sugar dating is presented as a new phenomenon, but on closer examination it turns out that sugar dating is a topic that has been discussed in Sweden much earlier. Research shows that sugar dating is a phenomenon that has occurred for a long time in sub-Saharan Africa. The leading factor to why sugar dating occurs is believed to be economical aspects. This is also evident in studies conducted in North America. How the phenomenon of sugar dating is presented and discussed in the media has not yet been researched. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and analyze how the phenomenon of sugar dating is presented in the Swedish media. In order to meet this purpose, critical discourse analysis has been applied, primarily based on Fairclough's and Foucault's ideas. The study is based on Swedish newspaper articles and other media reports between March 1994 and December 2019. These have been studied and analyzed based on critical discourse analysis using Fairclough's three-dimensional model and various themes have emerged. The result of this thesis showed how the words in sugar dating are used to describe someone. There are also articles where those who sugar date get to tell their story. This is happening at the same time as this thesis can show an increased media coverage with a problematic view on sugar dating, where mainly the police and journalists have power over the discourse. Those who provide a descriptive perspective with a more positive image get less space in the media over time. The most dominant discourse is the one presenting sugar dating as prostitution and as a social problem caused by mental illness.

To do so, this essay investigates five important events in Swedish integration into the European Union, namely the Swedish referendum about the EU membership, the protest during the EU summit 2001, the financial crisis, Sweden’s second presidency of the Council of the European Union and the British referendum about their EU membership. A qualitative content analysis was used as method and agenda-setting theory was used as a tool to analyze the development of the public opinion of the Swedish integration process into the European Union.    The results show that the media has had an effect on how the public opinion for the EU has progressed over time. There is a correlation between Media’s positive coverage and the positive progress of the public opinion towards an EU membership. One of my conclusions is that the agenda-setting theory is able to aid the explanation of the change in public opinion, in a long-term perspective, rather than its short-term effects that have been previously proven.

Abstract:
In 1974, decades before foreign terrorists became a fixture in the American consciousness, the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA), an American domestic terrorist group, abducted nineteen-year-old media heiress Patricia (Patty) Hearst. The abduction kicked off a four decade multi-faceted media spectacle. The media and public raptly followed Hearst’s imprisonment as a hostage, apparent conversion to SLA revolutionary and criminal, eventual rescue and arrest, trial and conviction, presidential pardon, marriage to her bodyguard, half-hearted career as an actress, and ultimate withdrawal from the public eye. Along the way, the media portrayal of Hearst twisted and turned. She was the heiress, the hostage, the criminal, the victim, depending on the moment in time. The varying depictions of Hearst reflected evolving events, but also specific images of Hearst that captured the attention of the American public and the media. Resonant images of Hearst from her kidnapping, arrest, trial, and release – spanning the five years from 1974 to 1979 – demonstrate that the heiress’s case became a magnification of American anxieties of the time concerning celebrity, feminism and gender, the radicalization of youth, and terrorism. In a time dominated by print, radio, and television media, Hearst’s portrayal showcased the media spectacle as cultural parable for a controversial time.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT

Purpose/aim: Are there any differences between how “old” and “young” groups within social movements in Sweden view (value) and use alternative and mainstream media?

Material/method: The answer to the research problem is sought by conducting qualitative research interviews with representatives of four different groups: Alternativ Stad, Folkkampanjen mot Kärnkraft-Kärnvapen, Attac Sverige and Ingen Människa är Illegal. The theoretical framework consists of research on social movements, especially on their relation to media, and on alternative media.

Main results: There exist some, but not great, differences between how “old” and “young” groups view and use mainstream and alternative media. The differences are relatively small when it comes to views on media and somewhat larger concerning media use. These differences in media use stem mostly from the differences in organizational structure.

Keywords: Social movements, alternative media, mainstream media, media views, media usage.

Abstract:
The central role of media in the Rwandan genocide of 1994 has led to restrictive precautions from the government. Restrictive legislation due to the genocide has for long limited media freedoms and been target for domestic and international critique. In light of the new media reform adopted in 2013 this essay seek to examine the experienced impact of the reform on the journalistic role as watchdog, setting the agenda, nation builder, agent of empowerment and government partner. The empirical material is based on qualitative interviews performed in Rwanda with journalists, bloggers, reform implementers and international collaborators. The analysis constitutes a discussion regarding to what extent the new reform seems to reinforce these roles. Here I will use my theoretical framework, namely Development Journalism, and the answers from the respondents in order to understand and examine this particular problem. The final part of the essay deals with my specific case, which is Rwanda’s media landscape after the newly adopted media reform. Here I will analyze the experienced change introduced by the new media reform. My essay finds that an official narrative, which is enforced by the Rwandan constitution, restricts the impact of the reform on the role of media

Abstract:
In 1994 a brutal genocide took place in Rwanda were one part of the population killed over 800 000 of their own people over a period of one hundred days. Rwandan radio, the biggest and most influential medium in the country, played a crucial part in the tragedy and today, almost 22 years after the genocide, Rwanda is trying to rebuild the media system as well as the trust between the public and the journalists. Over recent years Rwanda has made a huge development within the media sector and keeps moving forward from its dark history. This study aims to examine how radio journalist at the government owned radio channel RBA, Rwanda Broadcasting Agency, experiences the changes in the media climate and focus will mainly lie on the period after the introduction of new media laws in 2013. This study also examines how journalists have experienced different international collaborations, especially between Western countries and Rwanda, that are aiming to develop the media system. In total eleven radio journalist from RBA were interviewed and our research questions were as follows; How do Rwandan radio journalists within the RBA experience the media situation in the country today? How do Rwandan radio journalists within the RBA regard their role within their profession? How can Rwanda’s media climate be interpreted through different normative media systems? To understand the media climate at RBA three theoretical perspectives were used as a base; Agenda Setting Theory, globalisation and domestication. To study the media situation an ethnographic method was applied and put into the context of Rwanda's history and culture. During our interviews we have talked about how the journalists regard their role in the society, how it has changed, what may still change, how they value their independency as journalists and what they think the future holds for Rwandan media development. The informants all agreed that Rwandan journalism is constantly developing and journalists are learning how to work in a society where the media's biggest aim is to be trusted by the public. Rwandan journalists and international journalists, the latter group also partly represented in the study, regard Rwanda's media situation differently but both parts agree upon the fact that the country has a long way to go to reach an open media climate. Our result leads up to a cultural conclusion; it is difficult to make a fair judgement of the media situation in Rwanda only by measuring the country's development and the journalistic competence according to Western ideals.

Abstract:
The Internet’s liberative qualities have been hyped by a number of Zimbabwean scholars who argue, on the basis of the existence of online alternative media that carries political content, that democratisation can be technology-led. Given that the question of source selection is connected to the democratising potential of the Internet (Lecheler and Kruikemeier, 2016) by some scholars – this study interrogated the liberative potential of the Internet by tracing the social media sourcing patterns of four daily newspapers within Zimbabwe’s polarised mainstream media. Using a mixed methods approach which deployed Actor-Network theory as a preliminary methodological tool, this study collected and evaluated empirical data drawn from 146 social media sourced political stories published over a 30-month period and the responses from semi-structured interviews with purposively sampled participants – to account for the human and non-human actors in the news production network. A social constructivist analytical lens was then used to appreciate the contexts in which social media sourcing was being adopted in newsrooms, which revealed how unique circumstances had triggered unprecedented reliance on social media as a political news source. Those unique circumstances involved an escalation of factional fighting within the ruling ZANU PF that morphed into a propaganda war, which was waged through The Herald newspaper by one faction and through social media by the other faction. The public feud, which played out on social media, forced political reporters to gather story ideas from social media and overly rely on a few tech savvy elite sources. In these circumstances, social media’s influence on the political news agenda was overstated as it was conflated with the influence of a news event (ZANU PF factionalism) and the influence of social media users (high-ranking ZANU PF members) who could not be ignored. It is hoped that the findings of this study will contribute towards filling the lacuna in terms of scholarship demonstrating the influence of social media within Zimbabwe’s political narratives.

Abstract:
Alternative media, as another choice for the public besides mainstream media, has been increasingly growing in Taiwan during the era of Web 2.0. In an attempt to report social issues properly, alternative media is trying to break the hegemonic range of mainstream media while being oriented by the public. Civil Media@Taiwan has been established since the year of 2007. During its ten-year history, Civil Media@Taiwan has identified itself as an alternative medium. Although the rise of alternative media has been studied by researchers from different fields, there have been very few studies on alternative media in Taiwan. The aims of this study are first to reveal the principles and practices of alternative media, then to investigate whether Civil Media@Taiwan is alternative media or radical media. The theoretical approaches used in the research include the theories on alternative media, and theories on radical media. Content analysis on the official website of Civil Media@Taiwan and semi-structured interviews of fourteen interviewees are utilized as the methodology. The study has two research questions, which examine whether Civil Media@Taiwan is alternative or radical, and how it serves the public. The journalistic profession and the organization of Civil Media@Taiwan are investigated in order to answer the research questions. The results of the study conclude that Civil Media@Taiwan is partly alternative and partly radical, but combining the characteristics of both kinds of media. Moreover, Civil Media@Taiwan serves the public by challenging the rules of journalism and broadening the hegemonic range from mainstream media.

The aim of this thesis is to explore how Telegram is used as a tool for social media protests inRussia. The thesis will focus on the relationship between offline and online protests andmainly discuss the application Telegram in this context. It will analyze the positive andnegative attributes, as well as the effects and future of Telegram as a tool for social mediaprotests. It will do this by drawing on theory on political socialization, as well asmediatization, while also looking at various research that has been made on the subject. Theresult shows that Telegram is used as a tool for the Russian people to express their longingand wish for freedom, while it also shows that the Russian state is trying to prevent harm tothe Russian people, while still harming them differently, by censoring and blocking theirsocial media. The conclusion discusses these results and questions whether Telegram canuphold the image as a platform for freedom of speech for the Russian citizens.

Abstract:
Diese Arbeit geht der Frage nach, inwiefern die Medien während des Wahl-kampfs über die Wahlprogramme der Parteien berichten. Die Wahlprogramme der Parteien enthalten Informationen darüber, was Parteien nach der Wahl vorhaben. Allerdings lesen wenige Wählerinnen und Wähler Wahlprogramme. Die vergangene Forschung über und mit Wahlprogrammdaten hat bisher angenommen, dass der Inhalt von Wahlprogrammen von den Medien verbreitet wird. Diese Doktorarbeit untersucht diese Annahme empirisch und analysiert, ob und wie Massenmedien während des Wahlkampfs über die Inhalte der Wahlprogramme berichten. Wenn Massenmedien nicht die Inhalte der Wahlprogramme verbreiten würden, hätten Bürgerinnen und Bürger kaum Chancen sich über das programmatische Angebot der Parteien zu informieren. In dieser Arbeit wird das Konzept des Manifesto-Medien-Links entwickelt. Das Konzept bringt Theorien des Parteienwettbewerbs und Theorien der Medienselektion zusammen. Der Manifesto-Medien-Link formuliert drei Bedingungen, welche empirisch getestet werden können. Diese sind: Erstens, Medienberichterstattung und Wahlprogramme müssen zumindest zu einem gewissen Grad dieselben Themen diskutieren. Zweitens, Journalisten müssen Sachfragen mit jenen Parteien verknüpfen, welche diese Themen in ihren Wahlprogrammen stärker betonen als ihre Konkurrenten, um Wählerinnen und Wähler über die Prioritäten der Parteien zu informieren. Drittens, Medien müssen die ideologische Orientierung einer Partei sowie Veränderungen dieser korrekt wiedergeben. Methodisch werden in der Arbeit Wahlprogramm- und Mediendaten kombiniert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der Manifesto-Medien-Link relativ stabil ist. Außerdem wird gezeigt, dass es nur geringe systematische Verzerrungen zugunsten bestimmter Parteien gibt. Jedoch zeigen sich Unterschiede zwischen Qualitäts- und Boulevardmedien. Die Ergebnisse haben Implikationen für unser Verständnis von politischer Repräsentation und den politischen Wettbewerb.
This study analyzes whether media coverage covers messages from parties’ electoral programs (manifestos). Electoral programs contain detailed information on a party’s future policy-making. However, few voters read electoral programs. Still, prior research often assumed that the content of manifestos is known to voters because media disseminate the content of manifestos to voters. This dissertation evaluates this “mediation assumption” empirically, and analyzes whether and how the mass media cover parties’ electoral programs during the electoral campaign. If media coverage did not reflect parties’ electoral programs, citizens would have no chance to base their vote choice on evaluations of those programs. This study introduces the concept of the manifesto-media link in order to describe how media coverage can reflect programmatic offers. The manifesto-media link is formulated as three conditions that can be empirically evaluated and tested in a similar way to the conditions of the responsible party model. These are: First, media must cover similar issues to those that parties cover in their electoral programs. Second, media coverage must link issues with parties that emphasize these issues more than their competitors, in order to inform about the parties’ issue priorities. Third, media must frame parties as left or right in a way that represents how parties emphasize left or right positions in their own manifestos. Methodologically, the study combines secondary content analytical data on media coverage during the electoral campaign with data based on electoral programs. The findings suggest that the manifesto-media link is stable and robust. There is little to no systematic bias in favor of a certain type of party, however there are differences between quality and tabloid media. These findings contribute to our understanding of political representation and the functioning of political competition.

Abstract:
The overarching aim of this essay is to chart how Swedish news papers have framed refugees and the refugee crisis during 2013, 2015 and 2017 and if there has been a shift in the usage. The paper searches to do so by examining editorial articles from two of the biggest newspapers in Sweden, Aftonbladet and Svenska Dagbladet. The two papers have opposite ideological views; however, they are both independent from political parties. Drawing on an analytical framework elaborated in earlier studies the study uses frame analysis to examine the different usage made during each year. The study finds that the most dominant frame during the time is the responsibility frame, focusing on the responsibility and/or lack of responsibility taken by the government in relation to the refugees. It is also observed that the shift in usage of the human interest-frame and the economical frame is the most distinguishable, where the use of the first-named decrease while the other increase in 2015 compared with 2013. It is also observed that the content of these frames varies among the examined years. The conclusion of the essay is that the framing of refugees has changed not only under the researched years but over all and that the usage is in constant movement.

Abstract:

We present a concept for using procedural techniques to represent media. Procedural methods allow us to represent digital media (2D images, 3D environments etc.) with very little information and to render it photo realistically. Since not all kind of content can be created procedurally, traditional media representations (bitmaps, polygons etc.) must be used as well. We have adopted an object-based media representation where an object can be represented either with a procedure or with its traditional representation. Since the objects are created on the client the procedures can be adapted to its properties such as screen resolution and rendering performance. To keep the application as small and flexible as possible, each procedure is implemented as a library which is only loaded when needed. The media representation iswritten in XML to make it human readable and easy editable. The application is document driven where the content of the XML document determines which libraries to be loaded. The media objects resulting from the procedures is composited into the media representation preferred by the renderer together with the non-procedural objects. The parameters in the XML document are relative to parameters determined by the system properties (resolution, performance etc.) and hence adapt the procedures to the client. By mapping objects to individual libraries, the architecture is easy to make multi threaded and/or distributed.

SAMMANFATTNING:

Medias makt att påverka individers sätt att tolka verkligheten är stor. Betydelsen för hur man väljer att skriva någonting blir viktigt eftersom det påverkar den sociala praktiken i fråga om makt och inflytande för individer och grupper. Vi har i denna uppsats lagt fokus på hur kvinnor med utländsk bakgrund uppfattar den mediala bilden av invandrarkvinnor och hur det påverkar deras identitetsskapande. Vårt syfte med uppsatsen är att empiriskt undersöka hur kvinnor med utländsk bakgrund uppfattar den bild som förmedlas i media av invandrarkvinnan. Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod och samlat in ett empiriskt material bestående av åtta intervjuer. Resultaten visar att media i allt för stor utsträckning visar en gestaltning som bibehåller svenskheten och den svenska kvinnan som norm och invandrare och invandrarkvinnan som det avvikande. Våra intervjupersoner anser att bilden som media framställer av invandrarkvinnan är en negativ bild och en väldigt ensidig sådan. De uttrycker också att de inte identifierar sig med den getsaltningen av invandrarkvinnan samt att de ibland känner en oro att bli betraktad av andra, som den invandrarkvinna media skapat.

Abstract:
C-uppsats kandidat 2011 Title: Media – terroristens medhjälpare? Författare: Christoffer Wiklöw Språk: svenska Instution: JMK, Stockholm Universitet   En kvalitativ studie om New York Times språkbruk kring terrorism. De valda frågeställningarna blev: Hur är New York Times språkbruk kring terrorism och 9/11 2001, respektive 2011? Hur har mass-mediated terrorism-diskursen förändrats mellan året 2001 och året 2011 i New York Times nyhetsartiklar om terrorism och 9/11? Hur ser en reporter på sin roll som skribent om 9/11, och hur kommer detta att indikera på att journalisten kanske faller offer för att vara terroristens medhjälpare? Och materialet för studien blev fyra artiklar från New York Times, och en intervju med en skribent bakom en av artiklarna.   Teorival blev en kritisk teori-inriktad del med en socialkonstruktionisktisk infallsvinkel som stöd. Birgitte L. Nacos (2002) har teorier om ”mass-mediated terrorism” som stöd. Det finns även framing, nyhetsvärdering med i valet. Metodval blev Peter Berglez tolkning av van Dijks strukturerade nyhetsschema, vilket fick stöd av Norman Fairclough’s CDA.   I resultatdelen ser vi hur New York Times språkbruk kring terrorism, och dess val av nyhetskonstruktion gör att de ändrar nyhetsvärdering till allt som kan beröra något av dessa tre: terrorister, makthavare/regering, och samhälle. Helst alla tre tillsammans. En intervju med en reporter fick ge en belysning på hur denna konstruktion av nyhet kan se ut, och även om denne var införstådd med känsligheten att rapportera om terrorism så fanns det tendenser för att han blir terroristens medhjälpare omedvetet.

Abstract:
Over the last decade, the advent of social media such as online product reviews (e.g., Amazon.com),blogs and other social networking sites (e.g., Facebook.com) has dramatically changed the way consumers obtain and exchange information about products. This dissertation investigates the impact of various types of social media on product performance and compares the effectiveness of social and traditional media under various conditions. Specifically, the first chapter performs a meta-analysis of consumer-generated WOM elasticity in social media to identify the factors that influence the impact of WOM on product sales and to assess the generalizability of the relationship. The second chapter examines how social media may influence product performance in different product contexts as compared with traditional media, which assists managers in making better media decisions. Taken together, this dissertation evaluates the progress in this field, and then takes a step further by applying past findings to understand how social media may perform at various stages in the product lifecycle.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1999.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 64-65).
Buildings, serve in the real world, inevitably acquire or become involved in new proposals of meanings all the time. Their identities and expressions are constantly under scrutiny in the tide of changes. This thesis, through the design of a building extension, intends to explore the art of architectural additions. As the design project, it will reexamine the design of Media Laboratory at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and subsequently proposes a design for the extension to the existing lab. The design of the lab was carried out by I.M. Pei & Partners in collaboration with a group of artists; a design move underlining the basic philosophy of the lab, integration of Arts and Media Technology. The Lab is located at the gateway of the MIT East Campus housing the MIT Council for the Arts, the Media Laboratory, and the List Visual Art Center. While Media Lab's success in producing high-end media technology is readily apparent, its critics still wonders on how much its current physical setting is actually supporting its success. Given the unique task of marrying Arts and media technology under a single roof, the building has, since the first unveiling of its design, coaxed extensive discussion about the design's appropriateness and workability. Not only did its Critics challenged the building's ability to accommodate the intended program, but also its role as a member of the greater MIT community when its introspective plan, a square implying its own center and focus, and defensive exterior appearance, composed mostly of opaque surface, seems to be isolating itself from its context. Furthermore, the lab's recent shift in research agenda from the abstraction of electronic content, the multimedia technology, to the overlapping of this technology with the physical world is posing new challenges to its existing lab layout. A reevaluation and transformation of the building, in the face of these challenges, is inevitable. Prior to proceeding with the design of the extension, some of the questions that this thesis will try to answer are: What are the values and flaws of the existing building. Is there room for improvement architecturally? Is the current lab layout supporting efficiently the various types of activities of the artists and the media scientists? How well is it promoting the collaboration between the artists and the scientists as its founders had intended? How is it supporting its role as the container of one of the premier public facility on campus, the List Visual Art Center? Architecturally, how to add to such a rigid and self-sufficient geometry? Finally, how should the new research agenda be accommodated spatially? The three main methods in conducting this project are: interviews with key informants to understand the value and flaws of the current building, architectural analysis and a study on how labs of this type work. From Urbanistic point of view, the new extension tries to integrate itself with the MIT campus in two-folds; the overall massing geometry of the campus, and the redefinition of public/shared open spaces. The underutilized open space will be activated and internal and circulation modified to best serve the interest of the facility.

Abstract:
Cette thèse se donne donc pour objectif d’estimer la valeur des médias sociaux pour les entreprises. Elle développe une série d’analyses théoriques portant sur les effets que peuvent avoir ces médias sur leurs performances. Elle suggère également aux gestionnaires et aux praticiens différentes façons d’exploiter leur présence sur les médias sociaux pour tirer un profit maximal des avantages que cette présence suscite. Des méthodes quantitatives comme la modélisation par équations structurelles, l’analyse des séries temporelles et les panels dynamiques sont mises en pratiques pour aborder le sujet de façon empirique et exhaustive. Afin d’atteindre ces objectifs, cette thèse soulève un certain nombre de questions de recherche : Les médias sociaux sont-ils créateurs de valeur pour les entreprises ? Quels effets ont les médias sociaux sur les marques, les consommateurs, les investisseurs ? Quels indicateurs sont essentiels pour mesurer la performance des médias sociaux ? Nous nous proposons de répondre à ces questions dans cette thèse qui s’organise en quatre articles distincts.L’article 1 développe plusieurs analyses théoriques dont l’objectif est de comprendre comment les indicateurs de médias sociaux affectent la valeur des marques.L’article 2 aborde la pertinence des médias sociaux sous un angle différent. Nous y analysons les trajectoires de l’impact des médias sociaux sur les consommateurs puis sur les investisseurs, ainsi que les explications de cet impact.L’article 3 se focalise plus particulièrement sur la relation entre les médias sociaux et le comportement du consommateur. Les effets des médias sociaux owned et earned sur les étapes séquentielles qui composent le parcours d’achat du consommateur y sont analysés, avec pour objectif de donner un meilleur aperçu de l’influence des médias sociaux sur la décision d’acheter et sur la satisfaction du consommateur.Enfin, l’article 4 se place dans le prolongement de l’article 1 pour étudier l’effet des médias sociaux et traditionnels sur la satisfaction des consommateurs et la valeur de marque
This dissertation focuses on assessing the value of social media. There are several theoretical and practical gaps in the stream of social media marketing literature, particularly in terms of the impact of social media on performance. This dissertation proposes a set of theoretical conceptualizations of how social media can impact performance, makes suggestions for managers and practitioners on how to leverage the social media presences in pursuit of the benefits of social media marketing, and makes recommendations for researchers on how to further contribute to this research domain. Quantitative methods such as structural equation modeling, time-series analysis and dynamic panel methods are applied to address the issue empirically and comprehensively
