“…Television content is usually produced by a team; video editing and narration comprise different roles. Beyond direct address to a camera, much of television news involves “asynchronous” voice‐overs paired with edited video (Schaefer and Martinez ). In the United States, the narration is typically written first, and then visuals are added (Silcock ).…”

Priming Implicit Racism in Television News: Visual and Verbal Limitations on Diversity

2015

We highlight an understudied aspect of racism in television news, implicit racial cues found in the contradictions between visual and verbal messages. We compare three television news broadcasts from the first week after Hurricane Katrina to reexamine race and representation during the disaster. Drawing together insights from interdisciplinary studies of cognition and sociological theories of race and racism, we examine how different combinations of the race of reporters and news sources relate to the priming of implicit racism. We find racial cues that are consistent with stereotypes and myths about African Americans—even in broadcasts featuring black reporters—but which appear only in the context of color‐blind verbal narration. We conclude by drawing attention to the unexpected and seemingly unintended reproduction of racial ideology.

“…In addition, researchers have determined that authors' opinions are easier to understand in shortened forms such as in Twitter as opposed to longer writings in news stories or blogs (Bermingham & Smeaton, 2010). Just as television sound bites have grown shorter to appeal to viewers with short attention spans (Schaefer & Martinez, 2009), so has Twitter's 140-character limit attracted people who believe that their busy lives have privileged brevity.…”

The rising popularity of Twitter and the concurrent decline in audience size for local television sportscasts has fueled concern that the new medium is displacing traditional broadcasters. A model is offered that identifies the salient latent constructs that make Twitter a more attractive medium for connected fans in ways that transcend Twitter’s obvious advantage in timeliness. Issues relating to Twitter’s brevity, the public–private blending of athletes, parasocial interaction between users and who they follow, community building, homophily, and self-presentation are all addressed. The model offers propositions that can be tested by future research and provides guidance to broadcasters willing to adapt to what Twitter offers. Understanding why Twitter engages sports fans in a manner unlike that of previous technologies offers application for sports broadcasters trying to maintain audience share, as well as guidance for researchers seeking to explain the allure of the 140-character medium.

“…Because the styles of TV programs tend to follow the trajectory of development for movie styles [14], cinemetric analysis has much unrealized potential for the analysis of TV programs, including TV series. A small number of studies have adopted cinemetric analysis to TV news [15], [16], TV sitcoms [17], [18], and TV series [13]. This study attempts to extend the approach in the line of these studies.…”

The series is one of the most popular formats of television programs, but the emotional aspects of its content have not attracted much attention from researchers. Furthermore, the cinemetric approach, in which move data are quantitively examined, has not been used to analyze affective content in television series. Therefore, this study focused on emotion distribution in Korean television series. In all, 337 episodes from 20 series were divided into shots, then keyframes were selected from the shots. Facial emotions on the keyframes were measured using an online artificial intelligence service. Emotion distributions were obtained from each episode and then were observed for common patterns. In addition, the statistical complexity of the distributions were calculated and compared by the temporal phase of the episode, channel type, genre, ratings, and season. The results show that the emotion distributions of all episodes in all series had the same form: an asymmetric U-shaped distribution biased toward zero. The statistical complexity of emotion distribution was greater in early episodes than in later episodes of a series, and it was higher in episodes with higher ratings. In addition, the complexity of emotion distribution was higher in hard genres and during the summer season. There was no significant difference between terrestrial television channels and cable/general programming channels.
