The Impact

This article considers the impact of the WikiLeaks organisation in relation to debates around the defence of national security and free speech, global media citizenship and the emerging dynamics of the global public sphere. Building on the author's previous work on political communication, journalism and ‘cultural chaos’, it explores the implications of WikiLeaks for emerging conceptions and definitions of journalism, and for the changing structure of media–politics power relations at the global level, against the background of three trends: democratisation, declining deference and digitalisation.

Media Channels

The 21st century has seen the development of digital technologies as well as the growth of diverse media channels including the social networks. Many people in Africa rely on both traditional media, regional and local media to receive messages about other countries. In Africa, most of the media reports will be about women who have migrated to the middle East to look for jobs. But despite the negative messages more women than men still go to the Middle East to work as domestic servants and other lowly jobs. The men also migrate as skilled workers. Both the global media and local media present messages about America as the place to be. The media messages create the perception that in America, one can achieve economic stability. From Kenya, there are as many men as women who migrate to the US in search of education, jobs, and a better life.

Media Politics

This article explores selected English-language media representation of the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics. These Games were remarkable in suddenly becoming a key subject for global media when North Korea unexpectedly announced its intention to participate barely a month before the opening ceremony. There followed an extraordinary turn of events, including revived talks between the Koreas and a meeting between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean Leader Kim Jong-un, the last-minute formation of a unified women’s ice hockey team, Korean athletes marching under a unification flag, and an unprecedented summit in Singapore involving U.S. President Donald Trump and Kim Jong-Un. These developments raise critical questions regarding sport, diplomacy, media, and geopolitics. A discursive exploration is conducted of the main thematic mediated currents as the Games passed from being in prospect to taking place to being appraised in rapid retrospect. It is argued that each sport event of this kind has much in common with others but also displays unique characteristics that can never be replicated in space or time. It seeks to derive lessons for communication and sport analysis from PyeongChang 2018 alongside sporting and other cultural events that have already happened and are yet to be conceived.

The Mass Media

My aim in writing this paper is to describe that in this fast-changing world, media in Indonesia has undergone a rapid transformation. Digital technology continues to reshape the mass media landscape using internet technology. Internet brings a technical communication revolution, a fundamental change takes place in the structure of connections, artificial memories and the reproduction of their content. Internet technology has made communication much easier and less expensive. It has attracted many people and has penetrated into people’s daily lives. The mass media also have accepted the internet. Almost all forms of traditional media (old media) in local media, such as radio, television, and newspaper have extended their work into this new field. The internet and the World Wide Web have both significantly influenced modern journalism. In online media allows readers to enjoy browsing their product and service of contents, such as news feed, podcasts, desktop alert, news on mobile phones, PDA and others mobile devices. Online media offer not only text but also digital images , audio file, moving images (video), internet radio and internet t v. The interactive features of the internet seemingly imply that online media have more advantages than traditional media forms (old media). So, the internet have dramatically evolved become new media with characteristic multimedia, hypertext, interactivity, archives , and virtuality. The most important structural new media characteristic is the integration of telecommunications, data communications and mass communication in a single medium – it is the convergence. It should be pointed out that the trend toward digital is affecting the various media and brings the local media in East Java to become a global media, where breaking news from Surabaya or anywhere in East Java is transmitted to around the world in a matter of minutes . The research was carried out to find out how user reception on convergence media, journalism and local media on the site of SuaraSurabaya.net and how to access subjective meanings that they have created based on t heir understanding on online media so far. The research is also interested in looking into user reception on information and communication technology based on its relevance with the selected theme namely discourses on global media in website of Radio Suara Surabaya.
