This study applied dual processing theory, the theory of working memory, and the theory of cue summation to examine how the video and audio in a television news story interact with or against each other when the story uses pull quote graphics to convey key information to viewers. Using eye-tracking, the study produced visual depictions of exactly what viewers look at on the screen when the words in the reporter's voice track match the text in the pull quote graphic verbatim, when the reporter summarizes the text in the graphic, and when the reporter's voice track ignores the text in the pull quote. The study tested the effect on recall when viewers were presented with these three story conditions—high redundancy, medium redundancy, and low redundancy, respectively. Key findings included the following: first, that stories with low redundancy resulted in lower recall and memory sensitivity scores (a measure of memory strength) than pull quotes that the reporter either summarized or read verbatim on the air. Second, it was found that neither high-redundancy nor medium-redundancy stories were superior or inferior to the other when looking at the effect on recall and memory sensitivity. And finally, in high-, medium-, and low-redundancy conditions, subjects stated that they relied more on the reporter's narration than the pull quote to get information. The study states possible implications for news producers and reporters and suggests future research in the broadcast television news industry.

No jornalismo televisivo, a atividade profissional vai muito além dos microfones e câmeras. Por isso o objetivo desta dissertação é revelar através das pesquisas de campo e bibliográfica, se existem responsabilidade social e o compromisso no exercício das atividades dos profissionais do telejornalismo que produzem a reportagem externa, descrevendo as atitudes, o papel social que permeia as ações diante de reportagens que expõem os problemas que inquietam os cidadãos, além de compreender os conceitos telejornalísticos e as rotinas de reportagem explorando a relação do telejornalismo regional com a sociedade. Essa abordagem deu-se através de questões sobre a afinidade que o profissional tem com a comunidade receptora e muitas vezes emissora de notícias. Qual a missão do jornalista televisivo diante dos fatos ocorridos? Que tipo de análise os profissionais da notícia fazem do seu trabalho junto à sociedade/comunidade? Analisando as entrevistas semiestruturadas, (questões pré-estabelecidas) desta pesquisa qualitativa, procurou-se interpretá-las e assim identificar a auto-imagem dos jornalistas e sua profissão. A hipótese sobre a existência de uma missão e da responsabilidade social nos bastidores do telejornalismo foi confirmada com as entrevistas realizadas com os profissionais de duas emissoras afiliadas localizadas no município de Bauru e interpretação das mesmas tendo como base as referências sobre o assunto. Este contexto é mais uma discussão importante em meio a grandes transformações no mundo da comunicação. / News construction, verification, writing and diffusion are curious things outside the backstage of TV news. In television news, this professional activity goes well beyond microphones and cameras. Therefore, this dissertation aims to reveal whether there is social responsibility and commitment of journalism professionals who produce external reports performing journalism activities through description of attitudes and the inherent social role of the actions in face of reports that expose the problems which upset citizens, as well as understand television news concepts and report routine exploring the relation with the regional TV news. This approach appeared through questions about the professional’s relation with the recipient society or community and, many times, news producer. What is the mission of television journalists before the occurred facts? What kind of analysis do news professionals do along with the society or community? Describing semi-structured interviews, (pre-conceived questions) in this qualitative research we interpreted and identified the self-image of journalists and their profession. The hypothesis about the existence of a mission and social responsibility in the backstage of television journalism was validated by interviews with professionals from two TV stations based in Bauru city. Both stations were used as references for interpretation of the subject. This context adds an important discussion amidst huge transformation in the world of communication.

Para atingir tais objetivos, optamos por analisar o Jornal Nacional, a Rede Globo de Televisão, e o Jornal da Cultura de São Paulo, ambos veiculados no horário nobre da televisão brasileira. Definidos por Gitlin (1980, p. 6-7), os enquadramentos da mídia são padrões persistentes de cognição, interpretação e apresentação, de seleção, ênfase e exclusão, através dos quais os detentores de símbolos organizam de forma rotineira o discurso. Desta forma, enquadrar significa selecionar um aspecto de fato e satisfaze-lo, ao passo que as omissões podem ser igualmente fundamentais para conduzir a audiência. Para salientar os enquadramentos dessas emissoras televisivas distintas, escolhemos o caso do Morro da Providência, Rio de Janeiro, ocorrido em junho de 2008, que mostrou a participação do Exército na morte de três jornais e denúncia de propaganda política eleitoral feita por Marcelo Crivella. A análise mostra que os telejornais foram muito semelhantes e focalizam o aspecto informativo, não aproveitando este episódio para a educação cidadã dos brasileiros ou para reforçar os direitos humanos que foram violentamente violados / This researh aims: to investigate how the television news framing are built in broadcast news, through comparative analysis of two major Brazilian news programs, one from a commercial TV station and the other from a public TV station; 2) to study the role of the frames of the news programs during the coverage of a civil rights of citizenship violatin event. To achieve the goals, we chose to analyze the Journal Nacional, from Rede Globo TV, and the Jornal da Cultura, from TV Cultura de São Paulo, both running in the prime-time of Brazilian television. Set by Gitlin (1980, p. 6-7), media frames are persistent patterns of cognition, interpretation, and presentation, of selection, emphasis, and exclusion, by which symbol-handlers routinely organize discourse, whether verbal or visual. Thus, to frame means slecting a point of fact and highlight it, while the omissions may also be critical to conduct the audience. To highlight the frameworks of those different television stations, we chose the case of Morro da Providencia, Rio de Janeiro, in June 2008, which showed the involvement of the army in the deaths of three young men, and the reporting of political election propaganda made by Marcelo Crivella. The analysis shows that television news programs were very similar and focused on the informational aspect, not using this episode for the Brazilian citizenship education or to enforce human rights that have been violently violated

A survey testing student uses of and attitudes towards traditional broadcast television news and eleven "tabloid" programs was conducted using 300 students enrolled at the University of North Texas. The 10:00 p.m. newscast was most watched by the students. The most watched weekly news magazine was "60 Minutes." The Oprah Winfrey Show" was the daily "tabloid" leader. "America's Most Wanted" led the weekly "tabloid" shows. Students perceived daily newscasts as important sources of information. "USA Today," the weekly news magazines "60 Minutes" and "20/20,1" and "America's Most Wanted" were also cited by students as being "important" information programming. However, the survey showed "tabloid television" was not a major source of informational programming for college students.

[pt] Esta pesquisa analisa a cobertura da reforma da Previdência Social no telejornalismo brasileiro, especificamente investigando se o Jornal Nacional (JN) e o Jornal da Record (JR) pluralizaram e diversificaram vozes na veiculação das reportagens sobre a reforma, na medida em que estes precisam cumprir princípios jornalísticos como imparcialidade e objetividade em razão do Código de Ética dos Jornalistas Brasileiros. Realizou-se pesquisa bibliográfica para compreender a função social da televisão brasileira por meio de um breve percurso histórico (BARBOSA, 2013), que pode dirimir as relações intrínsecas entre esse aparato, o modelo de negócios (BOLAÑO, 2004), a concentração dos meios de comunicação (BRITTOS, 2004; LIMA, 2011) e a função do telejornalismo em nossa sociedade, considerados de forma conceitual, nesta pesquisa, sob a ótica de Alfredo Vizeu (2000; 2009) e Beatriz Becker (2005; 2016). A fim de atender o objetivo de identificar as vozes ouvidas pelo JN e JR, realizou-se a análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin (2016), e após a análise de 36 edições com foco no tema, constatou-se que esses telejornais privilegiaram determinadas vozes em detrimento de outras. Nos resultados, todas as vozes ouvidas se apresentaram como favoráveis à aprovação da reforma, uma vez que tanto um telejornal quanto o outro não mostraram, em nenhuma das edições, diferentes pontos de vista, impedindo a manifestação de opiniões divergentes ou o livre debate de ideias. / [en] This research analyses the media coverage of Social Security Reform in Brazilian telejournalism, specifically investigating if Jornal Nacional (JN) and Jornal da Record (JR) have pluralized and diversified voices when reporting about the Social Security Reform, considering that they are supposed to follow the journalistic principals as impartiality and objectivity according to the Code of Ethics of Brazilian Journalists. A bibliographic research was performed to understand the social function of Brazilian television through a brief historical route (BARBOSA, 2013). It is believed that it can resolve the intrinsic relations among this apparatus, the business model (BOLAÑO, 2004), the concentration of media outlets (BRITTOS, 2004; LIMA, 2011) and the function of telejournalism in our society. Alfredo Vizeu s (2000; 2009) and Beatriz Becker s (2005; 2016) concepts were considered in the analyses. In order to attend the objective of identifying the voices heard by JN and JR, a content analyses was performed in the way proposed by Bardin (2016), and after examining 36 editions focusing on the theme, it was possible to say that those TV News have given privilege to some voices instead of others. As a result, all the voices heard by both programs were for the reform. None of the TV News, in the analyzed editions, have shown different points of view, which did not allow a manifestation of opinions or a free debate of ideas.

In his first term as president, George W. Bush was confronted with one of the worst national attacks in United States history: the September 11 terrorist attacks of 2001. Through the devastation, however, President Bush triumphed in unifying and guiding this nation during what would become the height of his rhetorical leadership. Following his reelection in 2004, President Bush faced one of the worst natural disasters in the nation's history: Category 4 Hurricane Katrina. In its aftermath, Katrina became known as "one of the worst mishandled disasters ever." Utilizing Kenneth Burke's pentad, this study analyzes the president's rhetorical response and the primetime network news coverage following each crisis in an attempt to determine how President Bush could fare so well in one instance, consoling and leading the American people, while falling short in his second major crisis during his term as president. / Master of Arts
