    Popüler Kültür, Politika ve Din: Prime-Time ya da Selfie Dindarlığı/Popular Culture, Politics and Religion: Prime-Time or Selfie Religiosity

    No full text
    Bu Popüler kültürü tanımlaması açısından anlamlı olan prime-time (altın saatler) ve selfie (özçekim) bağlamında, daha çok Türkiye örneğinde, dinin kitle iletişim mecralarındaki ve politik alandaki görünürlüğünü teorik bir değerlendirme vasıtasıyla ele alan bu çalışma; (a) televizyon ekranlarında artan dindarlaşmanın sosyo-politik nedenlerini, (b) popüler kültür ve reyting (izlenme oranı) öğesi olarak din unsurunun etiğini, (c) kamusal alanda sıklıkla kullanılan dini sembol ve söylemin davranışsal boyutunu ve (d) “sosyal medya dindarlığı” olarak nitelendirilebilecek mobil iletişimdeki dindarlık biçimlerini analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmanın ilk sonuçları ve çözümlemeler, dini sembol ve söylemin, politik arena ve medya (yeni ve geleneksel) mecralarında bir gösteri unsuru olarak kullanıldığını ve dinin popüler kültüre ait tüketilen bir öğeye dönüştüğüne işaret etmektedir. / This study, mostly in Turkish context, handling the religious scenes in mass communication and political sphere within the framework of two meaningful popular culture terms (prime-time and selfie), in theoretical terms and through unstructured observations, aims to analyse (a) the socio-political reasons of increasing religiosity on television screens, (b) the ethics of religious coverage as a popular culture or rating entry, (c) the behavioural dimension of religious symbol or discourse that are much-applied in the public sphere and (d) the forms of devotedness in mobile technologies which can be called as social media religiosity. The preliminary outcomes and the analysis of the article suggest that religious symbols and discourse have been used as a show-business in political arena and media courses (new and traditional) and that religion has changed into a consumption item belonged to popular culture

    Alcohol messages in prime-time television series

    Alcohol messages contained in television programming serve as sources of information about drinking. To better understand the ways embedded messages about alcohol are communicated, it is crucial to objectively monitor and analyze television alcohol depictions. This article presents a content analysis of an eight-week sample of eighteen prime-time programs. Alcohol messages were coded based on modalities of presentation, level of plot connection, and valence. The analysis reveals that mixed messages about alcohol often coexist but the ways in which they are presented differ: whereas negative messages are tied to the plot and communicated verbally, positive messages are associated with subtle visual portrayals

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    The Prime Time Access Rule: Six Commandments for Inept Regulation

    Get PDF
    The Federal Communications Commission\u27s Prime Time Access Rule (PTAR) forbids television stations affiliated with the major networks from broadcasting certain programs during certain hours if the programs were produced for one of the major networks. The author examines the reasons PTAR is favored by the networks but concludes that PTAR should be repealed since it does not further any goals of network regulation, disregards viewer welfare, and clashes with anticensorship policies. The author suggests that regulatory inaction will increase competition among the networks for viewers, eventually forcing the networks themselves to push for PTAR\u27s repeal
