The objective of this study is to explore the presence of Spanish think tanks in national and international media based on a quantitative analysis of content published on 70 think tanks over 15 years (2004-2018). The published content was obtained through Factiva®, a database from Dow Jones & Company, that provides access to more than 35,000 mass media around the world. The results suggest that the representation of think tanks in the media has gradually increased over the years, regardless of the economic cycle or political situation, quadrupling over the analyzed period. Moreover, an increase of the hegemony of a few think tanks in the grouping of messages on the public debate and their concentration in a few media and media agencies are confirmed.

Nowadays, when our society runs towards the «global village», as it was seen by M. Mc Luhan, every place in the planet is connected to any other like a rhizome (remember the concept by G. Deleuze and f. Guattari) and it´s impossible to think that the human being may get in touch with his environment directly through his senses, knowing the real world at «first-hand». So, the function of the mass media is essential; simply because of a physical reason, the man is not able to be in praesentia in every world event. For instance, television replaces direct sensory perception of events for a «lead» perception, controlled by one or more power groups, those ones that own the media, which turn reality into a homogeneous construction ready to be watched. Television messages gets into a a way of representation, that makes the world open to the viewers. En los tiempos que corren, en los que la sociedad se encamina hacia la «aldea global», tal y como profetizaba McLuhan, en los que cada punto del planeta se encuentra interconectado con cualquier otro a modo de rizoma (recordemos el concepto apuntado por Deleuze y Guattari), es imposible pensar que el hombre pueda acceder a su entorno directamente a través de los sentidos, conociendo la realidad «de primera mano». De esta forma, la función mediática es imprescindible; simplemente por una razón física, el hombre no puede asistir «in praesentia» a todos los acontecimientos mundiales. Por ejemplo, la televisión sustituye la percepción sensorial directa de los acontecimientos por una percepción «dirigida», por uno o más grupos de poder, aquellos que controlan el medio, que convierten la realidad como tal en una construcción homogénea lista para ser consumida. El mensaje televisivo se convierte de esta forma en una manera de representación, que hace accesible el «mundo» a los telespectadores. Ahora bien, todo ese proceso complejo viene acrecentado por dos grupos de factores: por un lado, las características propias del medio televisivo, la fragmentación, la heterogeneidad y la ausencia de clausura; y por otro, nos encontramos con el arduo problema de la apariencia y la verdad en televisión, punto clave para entender la relación contractual del receptor y el medio en cuestión. El discurso televisivo no se entrega al destinatario con un sentido definido y realizado, sino que le facilita una propuesta para que la interprete. El significado de dicho texto nace de la confrontación del mismo y su destinatario; en esa dialéctica que dará como fruto el sentido juegan un papel importante dos factores: la posición que asigna el texto al telespectador y la situación que el contexto social asigna al destinatario. De esta manera, la operación del sentido se configura como una parcela absolutamente activa y profundamente arraigada en el seno de lo social. Hemos comentado que una de las características que distinguen a este medio del resto es la heterogeneidad genérica; pues bien, esto puede provocar que el espectador confunda unos y otros tipos de programas y no acierte a comprender del todo cuándo debe aplicar unas normas u otras en un entramado caracterizado por la verosimilitud. Por otro lado, las relaciones entre apariencia y verdad originan que ciertos telespectadores tengan el «problema» de pensar que el mundo se halla íntegramente en la televisión. De esta manera, aquello que no se encuentra en la pantalla, no ha sucedido realmente, o bien, ciertos acontecimientos que pasarían desapercibidos, cobran una importancia desmesurada gracias a la televisión. Además, la manipulación de los medios puede llegar a construir una realidad «a medida» para aquellos grupos de poder que controlan los medios de comunicación, imposible de contrastar por los espectadores, los cuales son incapaces de comprobar la existencia real de ciertos acontecimientos por la propia limitación física. Casetti y Di Chio delimitan varias áreas de análisis del consumo televisivo para acercarnos al fenómeno perceptivo con una serie de datos cuantitativos que permitan su interpretación posterior y tal vez la posible paliación de algunos de los efectos anteriormente comentados. Ahora bien, estos datos cuantitativos distan mucho de mostrarse como suficientes para una intervención activa sobre el consumo más o menos responsable de la televisión. La formación de un receptor crítico es la pauta esencial para asegurar el consumo consciente y plenamente responsable; esta «educación televisiva» debe contemplar pasos como ofrecer criterios acerca de la realidad o facilitar datos acerca del papel de los medios y su función social. La educación del telespectador se convierte así en la manera más efectiva de alcanzar un proceso comunicativo estable, responsable, rico y, sobre todo, consciente, de tal modo que el receptor ejerza su consumo con las herramientas oportunas que permitan evitar problemas contractuales con el medio.

The philosophers of the Illustration strained for defining the concept of «civil society», and came to the conclusion that this one was composed by the citizens’ associations that defended their interests out of the habitual politics. Nowadays, the civil society is made up by the not governmental organizations (NGO) and by the internationals organizations (for example, UNO), far from the economic profit that the market persecutes. The mass media have the force of changing the world and, because of it, the ONU and the NGO strain for creating programs that manage to put the mass media to the service of the civil society. Here are exposed the programs IPDC, the actions PNUD and the campaigns NetAid and CRIS. Los filósofos de la Ilustración se esforzaron por definir el concepto de «sociedad civil», y llegaron a la conclusión de que ésta estaba compuesta por las asociaciones de ciudadanos que defendían sus intereses fuera de los cauces habituales de la política. Actualmente, la sociedad civil está formada por las organizaciones no gubernamentales (ONG) y por los organismos internacionales (por ejemplo, la ONU), alejados de la ganancia económica que persigue el mercado. Los medios de comunicación tienen la fuerza de cambiar el mundo y, por eso, la ONU y las ONG se esfuerzan por crear programas que consigan poner a los medios de comunicación al servicio de la sociedad civil. Aquí aparecen expuestos los programas IPDC, las acciones PNUD y las campañas NetAid y CRIS.

Mass media affects its consumers primarily in their cognitive dimension, by changing the image of the world - in this sense that the media becomes a vector of social influence, by changing the cognitions of individuals - but also by changing the shared social constructs within membership groups. The stated role of the media is to inform target audiences about events of interest in the field-specific to the activity of the media trust, but also to convey opinions, ideas, and views on those events in a way that is as complete and as complex as possible, allowing recipients to build their own opinions or adhere to one or another of the opinions expressed. This article deals with the ethics of mass communication when faced with a window of opportunity which allows an easier promotion of ideas or interests, taking into account the theory of life as a spectacle promoted by Erwin Goffman.

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis aktivitas hubungan media yang dilakukan oleh Universitas Islam Indonesia, saat kejadian Tragedi Diksar Mapala UII. Kejadian tersebut merupakan krisis karena tidak diduga, terjadi secara mendadak, dan menimbulkan gangguan pada aktivitas dan citra organisasi. Hubungan media adalah salah satu aktivitas yang penting dalam manajemen krisis, karena media massa mampu mempengaruhi persepsi masyarakat terhadap satu organisasi dalam krisis. Dalam situasi krisis sendiri, persepsi dapat menjadi lebih kuat daripada fakta. Batasan hubungan media dalam tulisan ini adalah dalam aspek penyediaan informasi yang terdiri dari : (1) kualitas narasumber organisasi dan (2) cara organisasi dalam membantu liputan media. Data penelitian ini diperoleh dengan mewawancarai wartawan dari media di Yogyakarta yang meliput Diksar Mapala UII. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa media membutuhkan narasumber pimpinan tertinggi universitas. Informasi yang diperoleh dari humas universitas dirasa masih kurang cukup. Dalam hal upaya organisasi membantu aktivitas liputan, UII dinilai masih kurang cepat dan kurang terbuka dalam memberikan informasi.

The article is devoted to the issue of communication strategy in the mass media and PR-departments in organizations of various orientations. The authors draw attention to the existing practice of similar, repetitive messages that fill the information space. This complicates the perception of information by the public and makes this process boring and uninteresting. As one way of solving the problem, it is proposed to focus on unique information offers in communications. The authors believe that a wide potential audience is not aware of truly unique information offers of the mass media or PR departments of companies and organizations. A unique information offer is lost in the conditions of the growing tradition to consume news information from the social media feed, subscribing to a large number of public pages, unless these offers are made by popular and well-known companies. For instance, the authors of the article study unique information offers made by the media service of a football club in March-June 2020 in the context of the coronavirus crisis and the absence of matches. This is one of the most popular Russian clubs, well-known even to those Russians who are not football fans. Moreover, the authors also examine the unique information offers of a beauty company, with some of them not directly related to their products. As a result, theauthors suggest that it is worth advertising not only products on external resources, but also unique information offers directly.

While I was editing this interview with Orhan Pamuk in the Spring 2007, the media exploded with him: “Pamuk Wins the Nobel Prize!” It was not surprising, because for sometime now Orhan Pamuk has been known the world over as the “super hero” of Turkish literature. In Turkey, once again, the media turned its gaze away from Iraq, EU, unemployment, and questions of accountability in government, to contemplate why, how and what Pamuk had won, and the question of who is Orhan Pamuk? As the intensity of the debate increased, I began to wonder if Orhan Pamuk himself would be following it as if it was about somebody else. It certainly did not sound like the dissonance could be about one person, as the public contemplated him, unfolding multiple layers of his political convictions, his nationalism, his character, family, marriage, and private life. As the attention to his work disappeared, he was processed and reproduced by the media, with an effort that surpassed the media frenzy regarding his trial for his statements on genocide. Pamuk the author was replaced by Pamuk the image on the pages of tabloids. A year ago, when I asked if she had read Orhan Pamuk, a young woman in Istanbul had inquired, “Is he somebody?” Oh! Yes!, he is somebody, actually he has become more than that.
