A Note on Langer
The aim of this article is to analyze the historical course of Indigenous communication studies in Argentina within the broader context of Latin America. To this end, it explores the concepts, institutions and biographies of the actors involved in the process of emergence and incipient institutionalization of an analytical field of its own from the early 2000s to the present day. It seeks to characterize the analytical dimensions and to highlight…
Liberty and the News
The Rise of the Right to Know
When this measured account of the late 20th-century expansion of the U.S. public’s “right to know” went to press in 2016, that right seemed securely established even if it has never been fully realized in practice. So firmly established that Michael Schudson contends most Americans erroneously believe that the right to know was sanctified by the founders of the American covenant. Yet, 2017 has proven how fragile that right is, with a newly inaugu…
Forgotten Histories
As part of the recent recovery of forgotten histories of early media research in the United States, this article examines a correspondence between Chicago political scientist and Social Science Research Council (SSRC) founder, Charles E. Merriam, and journalist Walter Lippmann. The correspondence indicates that media and communication research was a significant constituent of Merriam's original vision for the SSRC. The 1921–1927 correspondence de…
Phantom Conflict
Contrary to the prevailing view in media and cultural studies, philosopher John Dewey and journalist Walter Lippmann did not represent different schools of thought. They were not adversaries in a great public debate about the fate of the public in modern democracies in the 1920s. Rather, their exchange about the “phantom” public was reframed as a conflict in the early 1980s, a reframing which has achieved broad interdisciplinary acceptance even t…
Designer nations
This article critically examines the emergence of nation branding as a commercial practice at the end of the Cold War by conceptualizing it as a means for nations to redefine and reposition themselves within the master narrative of globalization. It examines the industry literature of the nation branding movement, which seeks to legitimate the practice. It argues that nation branding is an engine of neo-liberalism that explicitly embraces a reduc…
Media in Crises
Televising International Sport
This study used both qualitative and quantitative analyses to discern whether the narratives, metaphors, framing devices, and production practices in televised international athletic events differed by the race, ethnicity, or nationality of athletes. About 340 hours of videotapes of 7 televised international athletic events were used to study key aspects of production: (a) commentator descriptions of 161 athletes in 31 competitions, (b) 30 person…
Market Censorship Revisited
This essay undertakes a wide-ranging assessment of the ways current transformations in global political formations are being configured within Western news discourses. Inspired by but not modeled after Raymond Williams’s (1976) Keywords, this analysis identifies some of the structures, conditions, and theoretical issues that need to be addressed to construct a vocabulary of key terms in the current interpretive crises. Situated within the assumpt…
The Sport/War Metaphor
Sport/war metaphors during the Persian Gulf War were crucial rhetorical resources for mobilizing the patriarchal values that construct, mediate, and maintain hegemonic forms of masculinity. Theory is grounded in an analysis of the language used during coverage of the war in electronic and print news media, as well as discourse in the sport industry and sport media. Various usages of the sport/war metaphor are discussed. It is argued that sport/wa…
