Media Framing of Capital Punishment and Its Impact on Individuals' Cognitive Responses

It is well known that mass media have the ability to frame a sociopolitical issue in specific ways, which can have considerable impact on the public's thoughts and perceptions regarding the issue. Through analyzing coverage of capital punishment in the New York Times since 1960 and then conducting an experiment in which we assessed individual-level responses to differently framed news stories, we show (a) the dramatic emergence of a new “innocence frame” within the past 10 years that accentuates imperfections in the justice system, and (b) the much greater impact of this frame on individuals' thoughts—in particular on those who favor the death penalty—when compared to the traditional morality-based frame. We suggest that the latter finding can be explained because individuals tend to resist changing their interpretations of issues based on arguments that contradict their core moral or religious beliefs; however, they seem quite receptive to new information along dimensions that they previously had not considered. This research also implies that U.S. trends toward lower sentencing rates and eventual public opinion changes are likely to continue as long as media and public discussion remains focused on questions regarding flaws in the justice system.

The Impact of Movie Reviews on Box Office: Media Portfolios and the Intermediation of Genre

For experience goods, such as motion pictures, consumers rely on third-party endorsements as quality signals. Often, other media are used to disseminate such endorsements. As a result, their impact on a consumer is likely to depend on the consumer's type and frequency of media choices—that is, his or her media portfolio. This article argues that viewers who prefer literary genre motion pictures have distinct media portfolios that make them more responsive to professional reviews. The article demonstrates this effect through an analysis of the impact of professional reviews on box office receipts for the 750 leading titles released in the United States between 2004 and 2008.

传媒上市公司的关联交易及其对公司价值的影响

由于目前我国传媒上市公司都是剥离、分拆、再整合上市的,其控股母公司往往通过关联交易对传媒上市公司的财务和生产经营决策实施控制或施加重大影响,因此交易往往是不公开、不公平、不合理的,是有损公司价值的。     

传媒监督与传媒自律

传媒监督对社会政治、经济、法律、社会道德及整个社会生活具有积极的意义.但同时,由于它在市场经济中本身也是利益主体,如果只有监督而没有自律,那么对社会造成的破坏也是无法想象的.因此,传媒在发挥监督职能的同时,应加强传媒自律.
