Using Egypt’s 2016 economic crisis as a case study, we examine Egyptian and Russian native language media reporting. The results show that Egyptian media provide coherent narratives of economic resilie…

Russia re-envisions the world: Strategic narratives in Russian broadcast and news media during 2015
This study examines the strategic narratives embedded in Russia broadcast and news media to determine how the country advances a narrative framework portraying the Kremlin’s world view as propagated through Russian media. We argue these narratives help construct Russian identity in building domestic cohesion while fending off criticisms by Western nations. The study furthers our theoretical understanding of public diplomacy and global narratives …
Contesting Strategic Narratives in a Global Context: The World Watches the 2016 U.S. Election

This paper presents a comparative analysis of how media in four key regions covered the U.S. presidential election and its immediate aftermath. Researchers utili…

How media outlets from around the world are reacting to the presidential campaign
A forgotten tweet: Somalia and social media
Several studies highlight the power of social media outlets to raise awareness, funds, and further recovery efforts in disaster-prone areas, but few have investigated where social media have been ineffectual. Although the long-running humanitarian crisis in Somalia receives only sporadic news coverage, the country is not without a social media presence. This study uses Coombs’ SCCT Model to evaluate the crisis response message strategies put fort…
Presenting me! An examination of self-presentation in US and Russian online social networks
The head–body ratio of 716 profile pictures and user-provided information on the US online social networking site Facebook (423) and VKontakte (293), the Russian equivalent of Facebook, were analyzed to test differences in facial prominence in profile photos posted on Facebook. The social psychology theory of face-ism was used to measure the head–body ratio of men and women. Results show significant differences in how Russian women present themse…
International Faces: An Analysis of Self-Inflicted Face-ism in Online Profile Pictures
The head-body ratios of more than 1400 profile pictures of seven different nations were analyzed to test differences in facial prominence in the profile photos posted on social networking sites. The social psychology theory of face-ism was used to measure the head-body ratio of men and women. Results show that men were significantly higher in facial prominence than women, suggesting social gender stereotypes are internalized cross-culturally by i…

This article examines the career of William Worthy Jr., an influential but overlooked African-American foreign correspondent whose activities and writings from the 1950s through the 1980s helped transform the role of modern foreign correspondence.

An examination of approximately 50 articles…
