Study Participants

This study used an experimental news report about confrontational robberies by adolescent groups in Mexican resorts that presented statistics with or without personalized cases of victimization. Study participants estimated the risk of harm to victims and the extent of their suffering. They also indicated their own risk and concern for their own safety. The readers’ numeric ability was ascertained thereafter. A trisection of this ability showed that persons of high ability comparatively overestimated others’ risk but underestimated their own; this despite indicating greater concerns for their own safety. These results were not altered by consideration of the readers’ empathic, experiential, and rational traits. The incorporation of personalized cases of victimization in the news report did not appreciably influence risk assessments. The involvement of cases resulting in major bodily injury, however, increased estimates of the incidence of such robberies.

The Way

Abstract The paper focuses on one’s perception of factuality in selected online news media. A group of university students of English were approached and presented with ten statements about Sweden and asked to evaluate their truthfulness. Half of the group (informed respondents) were then advised on the ways media use to infer a narrative onto the reader, potentially influencing the way they view events, while the other half (uninformed respondents) were not made aware of this fact. The respondents were then presented with a news report describing a specific event that took place in Sweden; however, half of each group were asked to read its tabloid description while the other halves were shown the event as reported by a broadsheet (both online). They were then asked to reevaluate the statements they were presented with before and decide whether their opinions changed based on the article they had just read. The results suggest that one is inclined to believe what they read, regardless whether the source seems reliable and whether they are aware of the fact media might manipulate their audiences.

Invasion Of Iraq

AbstractWithin the framework of Halliday's text and context relations, with key extensions of this model by Hasan, this paper presents an analysis of a TV news report by Australia's public broadcaster (the ABC) concerning the 2003 “Coalition” invasion of Iraq, in order to present a thesis about the context-construing work done by the register (i.e., functional variety) known as “news.” Sociologists have argued that news is a symbolic commodity, in the business of purveying forms of consciousness. How does news do this? And what, more specifically, can be said about the social process which news texts realize? This paper considers these questions, drawing on the analysis of the texture of the ABC TV news report, based on Hasan's “cohesive harmony” schema. The findings from the analysis are the basis on which I argue the news item relied for its continuity on the derived and abstract notion of “the Iraq war,” while failing to present a coherent picture of the actualized violence perpetrated by the “Coalition” as it rolled out its invasion of Iraq.

Evitar contenidos comerciales durante el consumo de medios no es un fenómeno nuevo. La teoría reconoce distintos mecanismos para identificar esta conducta y el uso de bloqueadores de publicidad se puede reconocer como una respuesta comportamental activa y consciente a este tipo de contenido. Es interesante ahondar en los motivos que pueden explicar esta respuesta por parte del usuario. El presente artículo analiza en qué medida el uso de estos programas de bloqueo de publicidad está relacionado con actitudes conscientes y cuál es la probabilidad de que ciertos perfiles los usen más o menos. Para ello se estudia el caso de los usuarios de noticias online en España con los datos del Digital News Report 2018 que encuestó a una muestra representativa de 2023 españoles mayores de edad. A través de una regresión logística binomial, se demuestra que algunos aspectos demográficos como la edad y el género parecen indicar una mayor propensión a emplear este tipo de programas de bloqueo de publicidad online. También los usuarios con una actitud activa presentan más probabilidad de usar programas para bloquear la publicidad digital. Por contra, se muestra cómo hay dos perfiles de personas que tienen menor predisposición a usar estos programas: los que pagan por noticias online y los que tienen una mayor familiaridad y conocimiento crítico del sector de la información.
