Identifying partisan slant in news articles and Twitter during political crises
(2016)
Karamshuk, Dmytro; Lokot, Tetyana; Pryymak, Oleksandr; Sastry, Nishanth
Abstract:
In this paper, we are interested in understanding the interrelationships between mainstream and social media in forming public opinion during mass crises, specifically in regards to how events are framed in the mainstream news and on social networks and to how the language used in those frames may allow to infer political slant and partisanship. We study the lingual choices for political agenda setting in mainstream and social media by analyzing a dataset of more than 40M tweets and more than 4M news articles from the mass protests in Ukraine during 2013-2014 — known as "Euromaidan" — and the post-Euromaidan conflict between Russian, pro-Russian and Ukrainian forces in eastern Ukraine and Crimea. We design a natural language processing algorithm to analyze at scale the linguistic markers which point to a particular political leaning in online media and show that political slant in news articles and Twitter posts can be inferred with a high level of accuracy. These findings...

Ideology, class, crisis and power: the representation of economic crisis and political policy in Ireland (2007-2009)
(2015)
Silke, Henry
Abstract:
There is a growing symbiotic relationship between business, communication networks and the mass media. Business depends on communication networks and the mass media in numerous ways; in the actual conduct of business, in the need for market information, for advertising and market creation, and as ideological apparatuses which act to naturalise market economies and defend class interests. In fact it is argued that the contemporary mass media rather than simply reporting on economic issues have become an integral part of economic processes. This thesis explores the role of the mass media and communication networks in economic crises and specifically the Irish economic crisis beginning in 2007/2008. The Irish crisis has deep roots in the country‘s semi-peripheral dependent nature and its weak domestic economy, however, the current crisis is fundamentally a crisis of overproduction (in property) driven by financial speculation. The thesis is grounded in the methods of political economy ...

Friel, S.
Abstract:
A pilot oral health programme was developed which aimed to improve dental health knowledge and behaviour amongst Irish school children aged 7-12 years. The programme comprised two integral components: a television campaign, run over a 6-week period, was incorporated into the children's programme 'Den TV' on national television, with video clips of a member of the music band Boyzone promoting key oral health messages; and a Smile of the Year contest. Concurrently, a dental nurse delivered an interactive talk with pupils, showed a video of the Den TV oral health programme and distributed posters and leaflets. The aim of this study, was to assess the impact of the overall intervention on school pupils' dental health knowledge and reported behaviour. Thirty-two primary schools in two health board regions in the Republic of Ireland participated in the study, At baseline and after 6 weeks, 1534 school children completed specially developed questionnaires There was a po...

Innovation and the economic performance of the primary information sector: a multidisciplinary approach
(2008)
Sparviero, Sergio
Abstract:
The aim of this research is to understand and compare the implications of recent technical changes for the development and performance of three key component sub-sectors of the primary information sector (PIS): the Information and Communication Technology supply industries; Telecommunications services and Media services. In this study, the author first reviews the most important economic theories explaining the links between technical change or progress and economic performance (i.e. Neoclassical and Neo- Schumpeterian / Evolutionary), as well as the relatively recent “New Economy” writings about the latest wave of technological innovations. Secondly, the author adopts an historical and evolutionary approach to examine the evolution of three main groups of activities representing the PIS industries in the case of the USA. The study provides an account of the main technical innovations but also the regulatory, organisational, managerial and stylistic changes that follow and complet...

Innovation in the Irish digital media industry between 1999 and 2002: an emergent new 'content' industry
(2003)
Cawley, Anthony
Abstract:
During the period of this study, digital media comprised an increasingly pervasive but still emergent medium in society. Most formal academic, industrial and governmental research into the emergence of digital media industries and innovations focused on technological and software artefacts, to the neglect o f content. Such studies subscribed to a distinctly determinist conception o f emergence and innovation, regarding them as essentially linear, closed processes, with digital media emerging under an autonomous momentum and causing dramatic changes to society and people's lives. The studies were, in the main, conducted at macro and meso-Ievel, based largely on statistical analysis, and they measured the value of scientific and technical knowledge to innovation. This thesis argues that such approaches are unsuited to the study o f the content industry, which remains a distinct domain within the overall digital media sector. Content innovation is marked by important qualitative ...

Interculturalism and multiculturalism in lreland: textual strategies at work in the media landscape
(2004)
Ging, Debbie; Malcolm, Jackie
Abstract:
This essay is based on qualitative research undertaken by the Working Group on Media and Interculturalism, based at Dublin City University. The working group is a series of ongoing research projects exploring recent initiatives in the Irish media that have introduced and activated discourses on multiculturalism, interculturalism, anti-racism, diversity and citizenship. The purpose of this project was to explore how the Irish media is contributing to structuring (and normalising) the discourses in which, and through which, public understandings of and responses to socio-cultural changes are being formed.

Ireland in the global information economy: innovation and multimedia 'content' industries
(1999)
Kerr, Aphra
Abstract:
The primary objective of this thesis is to examine the process of content innovation in the multimedia industries in Ireland. It is also concerned with the tension between cultural ideals and economic imperatives faced by both producers and policy makers in the field of new media. This thesis critiques technological determinist approaches to technological and social change and applies instead a social shaping perspective enriched by insights from industrial innovation and communication studies. Multimedia, in this thesis, is defined as both technology and cultural form. While it can be said that multimedia has emerged from the technological convergence of computing, telecommunication and traditional media this thesis adopts a broader perspective. It proposes that the origins of multimedia can be found in economic, political and cultural developments throughout this century and more particularly the social appropriation of a range of communications systems: telephony, photography, ra...

Ireland’s Press Ombudsman, John Horgan, on accountability, regulation and redress: Where do press councils stand?
(2012)
Horgan, John
Abstract:
In recent years, the creation of a number of press councils in Europe and elsewhere, as well as the concurrent appointment of internal ombudsmen or readers’ representatives in many significant newspapers, particularly in the United States, is a clear response to a growing public perception that there is a need for an appropriate level of accountability for the print media. It is fair to assume that this is related, in part, to a public perception that there is a need for remedies for abuses of media power – as there is a need for remedies for abuses of institutional power in any society.

Irish churches and mosque - towards a model of media relations
(2004)
O'Brien, Breda
Abstract:
This thesis looks at current media relations practice as conducted on behalf of the Roman Catholic Church, the Church of Ireland, the Methodist Church, the Presbyterian Church and members of the Islamic community in Ireland. It also asks what model of media relations is most appropriate for religious organisations. In the academic world, there has been growing interest in analysis of the intersecting fields of media, culture and religion, yet the practice of media relations conducted on behalf of religious organisations has not been closely examined. There is a great deal of literature in the broad area of religion and media, but far less about religious media relations, and less again about the situation in Ireland. The thesis begins with a review of what has been wntten about the topic and related areas. It then addresses three questions. Firstly, what do religious representatives hope to achieve through a presence in the media7. In other words, what do they see as the objectives...

Irish Nurses Organisaton (INO)
Abstract:
This report records the principal activities and developments of the Irish Nurses Organisation during the year 1997, and is presented on behalf of the Executive Council. The year under review saw the Organisation engage in a range of activities on both the professional development side and the industrial relations side, together with a growing involvement in the international world of nursing, which, taken together, maintained the level of activity of 1996 (the busiest year in the Organisation's history). As reported in last year's annual report, the dispute over pay and restruduring was resolved when members voted to accept Labour Court Recommendation 15450 (by 69% in favour, to 31% against, in a total poll of 73% of members). The subsequent establishment of a Commission on Nursing led to the Executive Council engaging in a comprehensive series of meetings with members and representatives at venues throughout the country on several occasions during the year. These will be...

Irish television drama: a society and its stories
(2004)
Sheehan, Helena
Abstract:
This book is a social history of Ireland seen through its television drama. It begins with the introduction of indigenous television in Ireland with the launch of RTE in 1962. It traces 25 years of Irish society in a process of social transformation and analyses the role of television drama in a struggle to define the nature of that process. It probes television drama in terms of its deep structures, in the context of the total flow of television and of the larger panorama of social experience. It charts the changing patterns of representation of gender roles, moral codes, class conflict, rural-urban tensions, religious belief, political power, domestic life, emigration, education and republicanism. It is a comprehensive account of plays, series and serials. It scrutinises the assumptions underlying them, the power structures surrounding them and the controversies set off by them.

Learning to sell sex(ism)? An analysis of gender in the educational cultures of advertising students in Ireland
(2016)
O'Driscoll, Aileen
Abstract:
This PhD project is an empirical study of how gender operates in the educational cultures of advertising students in Ireland. The research is guided by Sean Nixon’s 2003 study into existing advertising cultures and discourses in advertising agencies that work to promote traditional gendered working practices and organisational cultures hostile to gender equality. As a point of departure, this thesis brings together theoretical feminist critiques of gendered advertising, postfeminist cultures and the impact of postfeminism on gendered imagery in advertising texts, with a consideration of the cultural production processes that create advertisements. In addition, the study also explores the under-researched sphere of advertising education, especially as it pertains to gender. In particular, student attitudes and understandings of gender as they relate to the social world and to representational ideologies, their perceptions of advertising work, as well as their opinions regarding desir...

Maintaining freedom with responsibility: the evolving role of non-statutory press councils in a changing media landscape
(2010)
Gore, Will; Horgan, John
Abstract:
There are several fundamental reasons why the state should not involve itself in the regulation of the press. However, there are also more practical reasons why selfregulation can be a preferable alternative, benefitting journalists and the public alike. It is flexible, non-bureaucratic and highly effective at delivering practical solutions to problems. Ultimately, self-regulation can raise standards and provide effective redress to those who are wronged by the press. But it does so by working with journalists, not against them. What follows is an examination and analysis of the origins and practices of the press regulatory bodies of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, together with an exploration of current issues and solutions adopted, and the identification of future issues deriving from convergence, accountability and effectiveness.

Making a viewer visible: a study of television viewing
(1993)
McGuinness, Des
Abstract:
This study investigates aspects of the relationship between a small, but broadly representative, group of Dublin working class viewers and television. Working with forty seven members of ten families from a predominantly working class suburb in north Dublin the following key research questions are addressed at both a theoretical and empirical level: (1) The programmes and channels which members of the ten families watch. (2) How much television they watch. (3) What the responses of the families to drama and sport reveal about Dublin working class culture. (4) What the responses of the families to actuality programmes reveal about the operation of ideology and levels of critical awareness. (5) The gender and age factor in responses and audience activity. The thesis comprises ten chapters. Chapter One provides an introduction to the research dissertation. Chapter Two critically reviews some key theoretical writings on ideology, discourse and working class culture. Chapter Three ex...

Mass communication - nitro to the Net
(2004)
Conway, Maura
Abstract:
In their seminal contribution to the study of terrorism and the media, Violence as Communication (1982), Alex Schmid and Jenny De Graaf point out that before technology made possible the amplification and multiplication of speech, the maximum number of people that could be reached simultaneously was determined by the range of the human voice and was around 20,000 people. In the nineteenth century, the size of an audience was expanded twenty-five to fifty times. In 1839 the New York Sun published a record 39,000 copies; in 1896, on the occasion of President McKinley’s election, two US papers, belonging to Pulitzer and Hearst, for the first time printed a million copies. William McKinley paid a high price for this publicity. In 1901 he was killed by an anarchist, Leon Czolgosz, who explained his deed with the words: ‘For a man should not claim so much attention, while others receive none.’ Historically, access to the communication structure was intimately related to power. With the g...
