The complex process of forming the information society is accompanied by new challenges, demands, public demands, dictating the need to revise the established ideas about the place, role and functions of participants of information communications. Socio-cultural transformations of the early XXI century foreground the problem of book and other mass media partnership in a changing information environment. Formed in the XIX-XX centuries «relative» relations undergo revision in the competition for readers (information consumers). New channels and means of information transmission displace the traditional media in the information services market and create new conditions affecting the public consciousness. Scientific discussions on these issues facilitate an exchange of views and reflection on new approaches to the analysis of emerging contradictions.

AbstrakPertumbuhan praktek jurnalistik saat ini menjadi tren tersendiri bagi industri media massa.Media massa telah memberdayakan masyarakat dalam membuat informasi dan sekaligusmenjadikan mereka sebagai produsen berita. Salah satu praktek jurnalistik ini disebut denganistilah jurnalisme warga (citizen journalism). Meskipun jurnalisme warga secara istilahmemang baru dikenal baru-baru ini, akan tetapi secara konsep praktik jurnalisme warga inisudah ada sejak manusia mengenal tulisan dan mengenal media sebagai saluran komunikasimassa. Citizen journalism menjadi penting karena bisa menjadi pelengkap bagi “lubang-lubang” berita yang tidak terendus oleh para wartawan profesional. Semakin terlihat jelas persaingan antara wartawan profesional dengan khalayak pembuat berita (citizen journalism)dalam kedudukannya sebagai insan media. Nyatanya, saat ini semakin banyak perusahaanmedia yang mempekerjakan jurnalis yang berstatus kontributor namun jaminan hidup bagimereka tidak jelas. Perusahaan media kerap memanfaatkan ketidakjelasan status ini, untukmengingkari hak-hak pekerja yang diatur dalam undang-undang ketenagakerjaan, engganmemberikan upah yang layak, enggan memberikan jaminan kesehatan serta tunjangan lainnyayang bisa membuat jurnalis kontributor bekerja lebih profesional. Di sisi lain, honor citizenjournalism di Indonesia justru cukup menggiurkan.Kata kunci: peran kontributor, jurnalisme warga, masyarakat informasiAbstractThe current level of journalism education is becoming a trend for the mass media industry.

Moreclearly visible between journalists and newsmakers (citizen journalism) in his position as amedia person. In fact, today more and more media companies are contributor status andare still alive for them is not clear. Media companies often exploit the uncertainty of this status, to deny workers’ rights set out in labor law, to be reluctant to provide decent wages,to be reluctant to provide health and other benefits that can make contributing journalistswork more professionally.

Using semiotic method of consideration the article investigates judgement power of public sphere in traditional media and internet. The analysis reminds that news stories obey the narrative rules. They become an object for judgement only in a mediation that allows present public opinion. At the same time because of mediation and in accordance with functioning of meta-texts these stories become subject of moralising sanction to their heroes. For mass media, the mediation function creates the parallel universe of the public sphere. The aim of the article is to find an answer whether there exists something in the internet which produces a similar public universe.Theoretical argument lets to conclude that the tribunal of public opinion is not just a meaning apparatus; it also has to be narrated. That means, that the question of justice, of right or wrong, has to be turned into a pragmatic question of performance (how well?) and competence (by whom?). As publicity is only an idea, a meaning apparatus, for normative purposes need to hide behind narrative plausibility. As soon as actors are seen as pragmatic subjects, they are subject to sanctioning. Actually, a source is the direct will of the judging instance, which in the public sphere is the hypostasis of ‘all’.When internet lacks direct mediation instance, it is unable to turn information into narratives. Without public sphere produced by traditional media the internet lacks the meaning. Such stating together with the example of Wikileaks let to conclude that when there is no legitimisation of power, then, no realisation of the pragmatic subject, and in consequence – there is no scandal. Keywords: common sense, industrial meaning, internet communication, judgement, meta-text, meaning, meaning constraint, moralising, narrative, power (meta-text 1), pragmatic subject (meta-text 2), publicity, public opinion, public sanctioning, scandal, theatre meaning.

Due to a long stay on the periphery of the public consciousness, religious vocabulary has acquired a high permeability beyond the limits of its conventional style, although in the Ukrainian language it has always been an open system, refined through its active use. This stratum of vocabulary is quite rightly attributed to those that reflect the most active manifestations of the life of Ukrainians. Despite the lively interest of domestic linguists in the functioning of religious vocabulary outside the narrow professional segment of communication, the question of the actualization of religious vocabulary in the context of its stylistic reorganization in colloquial, artistic, publicistic and mass-media Ukrainian speech remains relevant. The purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of expressiveness as a factor in the reorientation of the stylistic features of religious lexemes against the background of the preservation of religious values outside of religious discourse. In the course of the study, it was established that, outside the religious sphere, expressiveness vividly accompanies the use of lexemes in religious meanings, while stimulating the stylistic modification of these units. The nature of expressiveness affects the emergence of new stylistic nuances (neutral → poetic, sublimely solemn, conversational, evaluative, etc.) that appear at a certain stage of development of the religious lexemes semantics due to the strengthening of separate semes of meaning with the actualization of its entire core. For example, the lexeme піп, once “bookish”, froze as a variant of meaning adapted to the colloquial speech elements due to the strengthening of such negative semes as avarice, gluttony, extortion, adaptability, manipulation. Repetition and pleonasm are stylistic figures that further reinforce such a characteristic feature of Ukrainians as expressiveness coupled with an explicit proclivity to judge people and phenomena. Such Old Kyivan and Old Ukrainian pleonastic phrases as красна» âhðà, правая âhðà, истинная âhðà, чистая âhðà could contribute to fixing the meaning religionin the lexeme âhðà (originally truth).

<p>This article reveals the main approaches and methods of forming a perception stereotype of the migrant image as "other some" in the Russian mass media. The authors of this article analyzed three federal print publications - "Rossiyskaya Gazeta", "Trud" and "Komsomolskaya Pravda", characterized as mass editions, which enabled to make the most complete coverage of several segments of the readership and to highlight the most widespread meaning of the "migrant" concept in the public consciousness. The study of the dynamics of using the "migrant" concept for the period of 2000-2013 in the Russian print media made it possible to conclude that there were shifts towards a positive assessment of "other some". If the "language of enmity" was used in the public consciousness to form the migrant image at the beginning of the period under investigation, which led to the consolidation of migrant phobia, then the situation changed by 2013 - the migrant image was more often associated with a victim of interethnic tension and corruption. The new migrant image is the image of a migrant who has not found a better life, but has adopted Russia as a second home and therefore trying to adopt new standards and living conditions and helping to solve many of the social and economic problems of Russian society. </p>

В статье отмечается, что массовая культура с момента своего возникновения существует уже на протяжении века. Приводится анализ ряда теоретических работ по проблеме массовой культуры. Отмечается, что развитие информационно-компьютерных технологий и Интернета, появление феномена виртуальной реальности оказало влияние на формы, способы, каналы распространения массовой культуры, поставив перед социологической наукой ряд гносеологических проблем, которые нуждаются в решении. В статье делается акцент на отличиях индустриального общества от информационного, в контексте которых и появляется массовая культура. Анализируется такая функция массовой культуры, как социокультурная общемировая интеграция. Отмечается, что массовая культура постепенно стала приобретать свойства медиакультуры, встраиваясь в пространство информационно-компьютерных и телекоммуникационных технологий. Вместе с тем распространение массовой культуры привело к деформации общественного сознания, усилению унификационных процессов, примитивизации культурных ценностей и росту потребительских аппетитов населения. В то же время, как показала общественно-историческая практика, многие алармистские оценки оказались преувеличены. В этой связи делается вывод о том, что в начале XXI столетия в общественном и научном сообществе возобладало конструктивное понимание функционала масскультурных процессов в изменении духовной жизни человечества. Mass culture since its inception has existed for a century. An analysis of a number of theoretical works on the problem of mass culture is given. The development of information and computer technologies and the Internet, the emergence of the phenomenon of virtual reality has influenced the forms, methods, and channels for spreading mass culture, posing a number of epistemological problems before sociological science that need to be solved. The paper emphasizes the differences between the industrial society and the information society, in the context of which mass culture appears. The function of mass culture, such as sociocultural global integration, is analyzed. It is noted that mass culture gradually began to acquire the properties of media culture, embedded in the space of information, computer and telecommunication technologies. At the same time, the spread of mass culture has led to a deformation of public consciousness, strengthening of unification processes, primitivization of cultural values and an increase in consumer appetites of the population. Simultaneously, as socio-historical practice showed, many alarmist assessments were exaggerated. In this connection, it is concluded that at the beginning of the 21st century, a constructive understanding of the functionality of mass-cultural processes in changing the spiritual life of mankind prevailed in the public and scientific community.
