Ruth Anne Clark  Roy Stewart  Alan Marston 《Communication Studies》2013,64(3):193-196

A synthesis of the rhetorical strategies employed by the Nixon campaign indicates that campaign's dominant task was avoidance. The essay examines the implications of that strategy on humanitarian and pragmatic grounds.  相似文献   

Creating Collaborative Workstations for Reference and Public Use in Academic Libraries     

Alan W. Aldrich 《College & Undergraduate Libraries》2013,20(3):364-377

ABSTRACT

The current focus on libraries as place involves the collaborative needs of library users for features such as movable furniture, group work areas, and amenities such as coffee shops. Additional attention needs to focus on how the technology infrastructure can support collaborative work in academic libraries. The one-user-one-machine setup common in many academic libraries does not do this. A collaborative workstation that is inexpensive and readily assembled is described along with equipment needs and costs. The impact of such a collaborative workstation for both reference work and public use is discussed.  相似文献

Hiding homoeroticism in plain view: the Fight Club DVD as digital closet     

Robert Alan Brookey  Robert Westerfelhaus 《Critical Studies in Media Communication》2013,30(1):21-43

–The DVD format has emerged as the dominant digital means of repackaging films for home consumption. In this essay, we theorize this new viewing experience and identify some of the challenges it poses for the media critic. We argue that the additional material DVDs typically offer, coupled with the format's interactivity, constitute a rhetorically powerful means of directing the consumer's viewing experience and protecting the commercial viability of the product. To illustrate, we offer a critical analysis of the DVD release of the controversial film Fight Club. Our analysis suggests that Fight Club's DVD “extra text” dissuades the viewer from acknowledging the film's homoerotic elements as representing homosexual experience.  相似文献   

Competition between the cable and broadcast industries: A niche analysis     

John W. Dimmick  Scott J. Patterson  Alan B. Albarran 《Journal of Media Economics》2013,26(1):13-30

The authors show that although there is increasing competition between cable television, broadcast television, and radio, broadcast television remains a strong competitor and has not yet been displaced by cable television in the advertising market. Radio still remains competitive, but not to the degree of broadcast television. The authors suggest that cable television will not rapidly overwhelm and push broadcast industries out of the market.  相似文献   

The Effect of Perceived Teacher Burnout on Credibility     

Qin Zhang  David Alan Sapp 《Communication Research Reports》2013,30(1):87-90

This study investigated the effect of perceived teacher burnout on perceived teacher credibility. One hundred eighty-two college students were randomly exposed to a written scenario manipulating the level of perceived teacher burnout (high or low) and responded to a scale measuring perceived teacher credibility in reference to the scenario. Results of one-way multivariate analyses of variance indicated that perceived teacher burnout has a negative impact on perceived teacher competence, caring, and trustworthiness. Low-burnout teachers are perceived as more credible than high-burnout teachers.  相似文献
