Based on the idea that the conditions in reality shows are conducive to violence due to a large amount of character interaction and little plot, and guided by the results of the research that studied violent behaviours in reality shows in the UK, our research aimed to determine which forms of violent behaviour are most prevalent in this reality show, in what situations and under what circumstances violent behaviours mostly occur, as well as who commits violence most often. The results showed that the most common forms of violence were direct emotional/psychological violence, that the most frequent and diverse violent behaviour was expressed by the Production and TV hosts, that nearly all the violent behaviour of participants were a reaction to the Production's and hosts' provocation and manipulation, as well as that individuals , who have a history of violent behaviour, most often behaved violently during the show. The obtained results proved that the Production of this reality show intends to provoke conflicts and violent behaviours, to compensate for the lack of story.","PeriodicalId":53049,"journal":{"name":"CM Communication and Media","volume":"56 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84149672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The media discourse on violence against women is the subject of this investigation, and it is located within: (1) media articles published in online editions of daily newspapers, (2) supplementary media text such as readers' comments on online news-portals and (3) post and comments on the Twitter social network (tweets). The first part of the research systematizes the main characteristics of media reporting on violence against women in Serbia that was present within last five years, which is accompanied by a review of relevant literature. The second part of the article presents the empirical findings on the conducted research which is based on an adequate sample which covers the first two months of the year 2019. The research hypothesis - which states that there is a difference between the discourse concepts utilized by traditional and social media when it comes to the subject of violence against women, as social media content is created outside of the classical editorial bounds - was tested using the discourse analysis and content analysis methods. The research specifically concentrates on verbal violence, and in that sense the research exemplifies how the recent phenomenon of open social network communication, which promotes the freedom of speech, produces the kind of communication that correlates with the misogynistic discourse that is embedded within a particular society. The following communication strategies were identified: the promotion and legitimization of misogyny as a form of public discourse; astroturfing; condemnation of misogyny as a form of public discourse; Ad hominem, and the political instrumentalization of the topic of violence against women.","PeriodicalId":53049,"journal":{"name":"CM Communication and Media","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83397037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing upon the theoretical and methodological paradigms of the memory culture and the concept of framing, the analysis was focused on the coverage of five daily newspapers online editions: Blic, Danas, Vecernje novosti, Politika, Kurir and central news programs of the public broadcaster Radio Television of Serbia and Television N1 in the period between 28th November and 4th December. The results of the conducted research showed the presence of three frames: revisionist, nostalgic and critical counter-narrative, constructed by different strategies. The media framing of the Yugoslavian past reflects the decades-long frozen conflict of memory in public discourse between official, institutional, and unofficial critical, engaged, so-called, counter-memories.","PeriodicalId":53049,"journal":{"name":"CM Communication and Media","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91145715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CSC notes that communication based on the \"message influence\" model has become dysfunctional and therefore they propose a \"pragmatic complexity model\" which is primarily drawn from the perspective of new systems presented by Niklas Luhmann. It is no longer a question of \"how to construct a more influential message\", but \"what kind of reality has a particular system that we want to influence constructed for itself.\" for these reasons, from the broad field of communication science I differentiate the segment related to the study of strategic models for managing public communications with individuals, groups and communities (propaganda, public relations, political marketing). I suggest a distinctive name for this area - Impactology. I then elaborate on the understanding and definition of communication as a symbolic coordination of sense, which, analytically stratified, consists of two selections and two constructions. The alter selects the data and constructs the utterance, and the Ego selects the utterance and constructs the understanding (by selecting meaning, contextual interpretation and attributing sense). Thus viewed, every communicational event (commevent) is bidirectional and presents a particular negotiation of sense in which both parties equally participate. This dismisses Berlo's SMCR model inspired by Shannon and Weaver as inadequate in the hypercomplex and multi-contextual contemporary world.","PeriodicalId":53049,"journal":{"name":"CM Communication and Media","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76627357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have established that journalists do not pay enough attention to the problem of violence toward women, and in their reporting they do not comply with the norms prescribed by the Code of of Journalists Conduct in Serbia. We have also found that the media representation of violence toward women was structured through recognizable reporting matrices based on stereotypes and sensationalistic approach. The results of the first research period - the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, point to the fact that the fight against the problem of violence toward women is only declarative, because even on the very day dedicated to the elimination of violence, journalists lack the interested to write about it, and their reports are not adjusted and adequate.

The aim of this article is to identify differences in their propaganda and to answer the following research questions: How did the USA and the USSR use films as an instrument of political propaganda during the Cold War? When it comes to the placement of the messages in films, is there a difference between propaganda actions of the two states? Theoretical review of the Cold War artistic production, as well the content description of the six analysed movies, have shown that the propaganda aims of the two regimes have been equivalent, but that there are certain discrepancies in the propaganda methods. The difference can be observed in the objects of negative propaganda, as well as in a portraying of the enemy and treatment of women. Far less contrast can be found in the so-called \"positive campaigns\". Moreover, both sides endeavoured to indicate the \"emancipatory\" sides of their own military interventions. In the analysed pro-militaristic films, the American production went one step further, by deprecating the American society which discarded its own war heroes and by agitating the future soldiers. These differences are a consequence of numerous factors, and the recognition of these factors provides us with insight into dominant social and normative currents and conflicts of the Cold War.","PeriodicalId":53049,"journal":{"name":"CM Communication and Media","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87832143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
