Talk:News media
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Overview
This article, while still a stub, is presenting an uncommon term as if it were in an established and standard term. Calicocat 14:33, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] "News trade"
Much of this article was apparently copied from News trade, which was listed on VFD. The result of the discussion was to redirect here to "News media".
I am going to overhaul this article to discuss types of news media. Maurreen 6 July 2005 13:54 (UTC)
I am a media student about to do my exams, I am currently trying to revise and needrtrt to know extensivly about the structure of the news, news worthiness,news values,hegemony within the news indusrty,along with bias and the epistemological problem being what constitues as news?.This article although is helpful it still seems very vauge on the facts and information. This is not the only article i have read ,i have tried to find out about these terms and theories on wikipedia, focusing mainly on Adorno, Horkhiemer, Habermass and Gramsci, but they all seem to either give an in depth bio on these theorists lives, rather than concepts which i can relate to the news industry or relate these terms on other theories and subjects. Even worse,some simply give a basic deffinition of the words i have searched for. I have to have in depth knowlegde on these topics and know how they relate to the mass media by Monday the 18th of June.
Are there any Academics or people out there who has a deep understanding of these concepts and could help please, i have tried so hard to make sense of these theories and really starting to panic. Wikipedia is a great source but at the moment it's all too general. I would much appriciate if anyone could help me here. Thank you x DeeDee x
[edit] Cool and warm
- Television is the "cool medium" because it provides less information than newspapers, but appeals to our senses through the swift progression of images. Newspapers and radio make up the "hot medium" because they demand less attention from the senses and more from the reasoning part of the brain. [1]
Is this relevant to the current article? --Uncle Ed 16:29, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
