O presente estudo tratou das lutas engendradas por sujeitos históricos nos primeiros tempos de pós-abolição e República no Brasil, por meio da constituição de um grupo formado por homens de cor porto-alegrenses, suas transformações ao longo do tempo e seu projeto político, materializado e executado por meio do jornal O Exemplo. Visando melhor compreender as duas primeiras fases do periódico, a saber, de 1892 a 1897 e de 1902 a 1911, e identificar as diversas experiências que informaram a constituição do grupo e do projeto coletivo, abrangeu aspectos do ciclo de vida dos membros do grupo, que se renovou ao longo do tempo, e dos seus apoiadores, de meados do século XIX à Primeira República. A terceira e última fase do periódico, entre 1916 e 1930, ficou de fora da análise devido às significativas mudanças internas e contextuais, ainda que eventualmente tenha sido adentrada para a reconstituição das trajetórias dos personagens investigados. O programa de O Exemplo foi sintetizado em duas ideias-chave em seu número de estreia, “a defesa de nossa classe e o aperfeiçoamento de nossos medíocres conhecimentos”, e explicita dilemas enfrentados pela população negra durante a construção de uma sociedade pós-abolição e republicana, mas também a via pela qual um grupo de jovens letrados negros buscou participar dos debates políticos e, mais do que isso, pautá-los, colocando-se como arauto de um grupo e de uma ideia. Por isso, as lutas por direitos, sobretudo por instrução e contra o racismo, para as quais concorriam sentidos conferidos à educação, ao trabalho e à cidadania, ganharam proeminência ao longo do estudo. / The following study treated the struggles that were developed by historical subjects in the first years of post-abolition and Republic in Brazil, forming a group of colored men from Porto Alegre, their transformations in time and their political project, materialized and executed in O Exemplo newspaper. Trying to comprehend the first two stages of this paper, for saying, between 1892 and 1911, and identifying the diversity of experiences that informed the constitution of the group and their collective project, this study covered aspects of the life circle of these members, which renovated itself over time, as well as its supporters at the middle of 19th Century through the First Republic. The third and last stage, between 1916 and 1930, was left out of this analysis because of the significative changes, both internal and contextual, even tough eventually the study has approached these times to reconstitute the trajectories of the researched characters. The program of O Exemplo was synthetized in two key-ideas in its opening number as “the defense of our class and the improvement of our mediocre knowledge”, and it expressed the dilemmas faced by black people during the building of a republican and post-abolition society, but it also shows us the way in which a group of black, young and literate people intended to participate in the political debates and, moreover, to guide itself, putting themselves as heralds of a group and of an ideal. Henceforth, the struggles for rights, mainly those about instruction and against racism, both of them who they created different signification around education, labor, citizenship and who gained prominence during this study.

The intent of this thesis is to discuss the manner in which four black newspapers covered the U.S. Masters Tournament, hosted annually at the Augusta National Golf Club, Georgia, from 1994 through 2001. The four black newspapers include two from the North, the New Pittsburgh Courier and the Chicago Defender, and two from the South, the Atlanta Voice and the Birmingham Times. It is my contention that U.S. Masters coverage in the aforementioned black papers is dependent upon the presence of Tiger Woods. Without Woods' participation at the Masters, coverage of the event would be diminished in the four black newspapers. The years 1994 through 2001 (excluding the Birmingham Times which was only microfilmed to 1999) have been analyzed in each of the four newspapers in order to present my case. The thesis proves that to the four black newspapers Tiger Woods is the deciding factor in its Masters coverage.

Research has revealed that more Americans than ever are turning to the World Wide Web as their primary source for news and information instead of legacy media outlets such as printed newspapers and magazines and broadcast news. As more and more people rely on the Internet as a primary source for news, it is important to analyze the characteristics and content of online news to expose and correct problems associated with the practices that inform its production and presentation. There are several longstanding practices in the American journalistic tradition that have been adapted to the online news environment. The practices of market segmentation and gatekeeping are two such practices. To date, few studies have explored how internet news coverage differs when the same story is altered to address the perceived interests of specific target audiences. This goal of this study was to collect and examine the characteristics of news stories presented on the homepages of three news websites—the Huffington Post, Huffington Post Black Voices and News One—to arrive at conclusions about the similarities and differences in how news content is reported to a general audience and to an African-American audience. This exploratory study used both Web sphere analysis and qualitative analysis to examine the collected homepage news stories. It used the results of the analyses to explore the possible effects continued market segmentation and selective exposure online could have on discourse in the public sphere. The study found that the legacy media practice of market segmentation was evident when online news reporting on targeted and untargeted news website homepages was compared. The study also revealed that the traditional role of the Black Press in legacy media has been resurrected in new media and is evident on news websites produced by African-Americans, for an African-American audience. Additionally, a qualitative examination of online news coverage of President Barack Obama’s 2012 State of the Union address and the death of Trayvon Martin revealed that the targeted audience influences the editorial slant through which news websites report stories.

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2013. / Bibliography / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The representation of women in the media has been problematic in many respects. Women have often been portrayed in a limited number of roles and media reports have often unnecessarily focused on their physical appearance. In 2009, South African athlete Caster Semenya astonished the athletics world with her times in the 800 m. However, her performance was soon overshadowed by speculation about her sex. Before long, an Australian publication claimed that Semenya had male sexual organs and no womb or ovaries. The publication of this report left other media with a number of ethical dilemmas. This study examined the representation of Semenya in Beeld and Rapport, two Afrikaans newspapers, during the height of speculation. The aim of the study was to determine whether the specified media, in their portrayal of Semenya, adhered to journalism’s ethical principle of truth-telling. Two theoretical frameworks, namely, Representation and African womanism, were used as analytical tools. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyse the portrayal of Semenya. The study found that the representation of Caster Semenya did not adhere to journalism’s ethical principle of truth-telling in all respects. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die uitbeelding van vroue in die media skiet steeds in verskeie opsigte tekort. Studies oor die onderwerp dui daarop dat vroue dikwels in ’n beperkte aantal rolle uitgebeeld word. Daar word ook gereeld onnodig na vroue se fisieke voorkoms verwys. In 2009 het die Suid-Afrikaanse atleet Caster Semenya die atletiekwêreld verras met haar uitstekende tye in die 800 m. Dié prestasie is egter gou oorskadu deur media-spekulasie oor die atleet se geslag. ’n Australiese publikasie het kort daarna ’n berig gepubliseer wat beweer het dat Semenya manlike geslagorgane het en geen baarmoeder of ovaria nie. Die publikasie van dié berig het die media voor verskeie etiese uitdagings te staan gebring. Hierdie studie het die uitbeelding van Semenya in Beeld en Rapport, twee Afrikaanse koerante, gedurende die hoogtepunt van dié spekulasie ondersoek. Die doel van die studie was om te bepaal of die spesifieke publikasies gehoor gegee het aan media-etiese voorskrifte met betrekking tot die weergee van die waarheid. Twee teoretiese raamwerke, naamlik Uitbeelding en womanism in Afrika, is in dié verband as vertrekpunt gebruik. Kwalitatiewe inhoudsanalise is gebruik om die uitbeelding van Semenya te ontleed. Die studie het bevind dat die uitbeelding van Semenya nie in alle opsigte in ooreenstemming was met dié beginsel nie.

Buscou-se reconstruir o procedimento da investigaça?o e as técnicas de pesquisa empírica mobilizadas, em especial o contato entre pesquisadores acadêmicos e intelectuais negros identificados com os movimentos sociais do "meio negro" de Sa?o Paulo. A metodologia utilizada consistiu na ana?lise conjunta da tese de cátedra de Fernandes de 1964 intitulada A integraça?o do negro na sociedade de classes e da documentaça?o referente ao material empírico coletado em sua forma original, presente no Fundo Florestan Fernandes (localizado na Biblioteca Comunita?ria da Universidade Federal de Sa?o Carlos), procurando estabelecer conexões entre a interpretação sociológica e o contexto original da pesquisa empírica, por meio da análise e explicitação do tratamento e recorte do material bruto coletado realizados por Florestan Fernandes. A riqueza do material empi?rico comprova a importância e a complexidade da interaça?o entre a investigaça?o sociolo?gica e meio social. Os documentos do Fundo evidenciam a pluralidade de te?cnicas de pesquisa mobilizadas pelos investigadores para coletar dados por meio da criação de situaço?es de dia?logo com os intelectuais negros colaboradores: histo?rias de vida, estudos de caso, observaço?es em massa em situaço?es individuais (por meio de questiona?rios) e em situaço?es grupais (por meio de onze Mesas Redondas realizadas em 1951 e que reuniram pesquisadores brancos e intelectuais do "meio negro"). A análise das histórias de vida de José Correia Leite e Francisco Lucrécio, ambas coletadas por Renato Jardim Moreira, da monografia "Movimentos sociais no meio negro" e das atas disponíveis das Mesas Redondas compõem o núcleo do tratamento que se deu ao material do Fundo, em conjunto com a organização de um apêndice que fornece um guia para futuros pesquisadores interessados na exploração de todo o material original disponível / Abstract: This thesis deals with the UNESCO Research on Racial Relations, coordinated in São Paulo by Florestan Fernandes and Roger Bastide. The objective was to reconstruct the investigation's procedure and the techniques of empirical research that were utilized, specially the contact between the sociologists involved and black intellectuals identified with the social movements in São Paulo's "black milieu". The methodology consisted in the joint analysis of the 1964 Fernandes' Full Professor Thesis entitled A integração do negro na sociedade de classes and the collected empirical material in its original form, at the "Fundo Florestan Fernandes" (located in the Federal University of São Carlos' Community Library), seeking to establish connections between the sociological interpretation of Fernandes' work and the empirical research's original context, through the analysis of the treatment and interpretation of the raw material collected, performed by Florestan Fernandes. The extent of the empirical data collected indicates the importance and the complexity of the interaction between sociological research and social movements. The documents located at Fundo Florestan Fernandes show the diversity of the techniques that were employed by creating situations of dialogue with black intellectuals: Life Stories; Case Studies; Individual Mass Observations (by the use of questionnaires) and Mass Observations in Group Situations (by the organization of eleven Round Tables with black intellectuals in 1951). The material that was analyzed in this thesis is that of two Life Stories, of José Correia Leite and Francisco Lucrécio, collected by the sociologist Renato Jardim Moreira; the Case Study "Social Movements in the Black Milieu", written by Correia Leite and Moreira; and the transcripts of the Round Tables. In addition, it was made an Appendix with a guide to future researchers interested in the entire collection of empirical material that is available at the "Fundo Florestan Fernandes" / Mestrado / Sociologia / Mestra em Sociologia
