Drawing on field observations and extensive interviews, this study investigates how Kenyan media practitioners exercise their agency when interacting with Chinese stakeholders. When dealing with Chinese stakeholders or China-related stories, Kenyan media practitioners developed three strategies to exercise their journalistic agency: (a) situational negotiation, (b) collective reflection, and (c) resistance, through which they have approached, negotiated with, and resisted their relations with their Chinese counterparts. This article challenges the misconceptions that Chinese media organizations always hold a powerful position vis-à-vis African media organizations, and that African agents are dependents or innocent victims with neither agency nor creativity.
本研究通过实地观察和广泛采访,调查了肯尼亚媒体从业者在与中国利益相关者互动时如何行使其代理权。在与中国利益相关者或与中国有关的故事打交道时,肯尼亚媒体从业者制定了三种策略来行使他们的新闻代理权:(a)情境谈判,(b)集体反思,以及(c)抵抗,通过这些策略,他们接触、谈判并抵制与中国同行的关系。这篇文章挑战了这样一种误解,即中国媒体机构相对于非洲媒体机构总是占据着强大的地位,非洲代理人是受抚养人或无辜的受害者,既没有代理权,也没有创造力。

This paper explores China's increasing media engagement with Latin American partners. It examines the case of Mundo China (MC), a China-news segment broadcast by the Brazilian news channel BandNews TV and co-produced in partnership with CCTV. By conducting content analysis, we assess how China is presented, contrast the framing of China before and since the partnership agreement, and compare the televised image of China between BandNews TV and other news channels in Brazil. The findings show that MC has assisted in diversifying and balancing the ratio of positive frames in relation to the overall China-related reporting across the broadcasters sampled.
本文探讨了中国与拉美合作伙伴日益增加的媒体参与度。它审查了Mundo China(MC)的案件,这是一个由巴西新闻频道BandNews TV播出的中国新闻片段,与CCTV合作制作。通过进行内容分析,我们评估了中国的形象,对比了合作协议前后对中国的描述,并比较了BandNews电视台和巴西其他新闻频道对中国的电视形象。调查结果显示,MC有助于使抽样广播公司的正面报道与总体中国相关报道的比例多样化和平衡。

This article examines China–US competition for narratives by analyzing whether and how Chinese and American diplomats engage each other in routine diplomatic outreach to African audiences on Twitter. Drawing on case studies of Kenya and South Africa, our study uncovers “asymmetrical discursive competition”—Chinese diplomatic accounts selectively launch discursive attacks (both defensive and offensive) on the United States, while the US diplomatic accounts tend to ignore China. We further find that in invoking the United States, Chinese diplomats largely bypass Africa and African issues, and instead, focus on contesting larger claims about China's legitimacy.
本文通过分析中美外交官是否以及如何在推特上与非洲观众进行例行外交接触,来审视中美在叙事方面的竞争。通过对肯尼亚和南非的个案研究,我们的研究揭示了“不对称话语竞争”——中国外交账户选择性地对美国发动话语攻击(包括防御和进攻),而美国外交账户往往忽视中国。我们进一步发现,在援引美国的话时,中国外交官基本上绕过了非洲和非洲问题,转而专注于对中国合法性的更大主张提出质疑。

Introduction The year 2012 stands as a significant milestone in China’s government-led external communication activities. It was in early 2012 that Beijing launched television broadcasting and production centres in Washington, DC, USA (CCTV America, now CGTN America) and Nairobi, Kenya (CGTN Africa). Later in the year, it began publishing an African weekly edition of the English-language newspaper China Daily; European and Asian weekly editions had launched in 2010 (Zhang, 2013). Set in motion under the leadership of President Hu Jintao, China’s global media expansion, part of a larger ‘going out’ policy for the economy in general, sought to improve the country’s image overseas, and to give Beijing a larger say in global information flows (Thussu et al., 2018). Ten years on, Chinese media’s global engagement has not only grown, but diversified. Today, Chinese media companies, both State-owned and privately owned, are engaged
引言2012年是中国政府主导对外交流活动的一个重要里程碑。2012年初,北京在美国华盛顿(CCTV America,现为CGTN America)和肯尼亚内罗毕(CGTN Africa)设立了电视广播和制作中心。今年晚些时候,它开始出版英文报纸《中国日报》的非洲周刊;欧洲和亚洲周刊于2010年推出(张,2013)。在国家主席胡锦涛的领导下,中国的全球媒体扩张作为整体经济“走出去”政策的一部分,旨在改善国家在海外的形象,并让北京在全球信息流中拥有更大的发言权(Thussu et al.,2018)。十年过去了,中国媒体在全球的参与度不仅在增长,而且在多样化。如今,中国国有和私营媒体公司都参与其中

Most protest paradigm studies examining news media's portrayals of protesters are based on an assumption that the way the paradigm operates within the U.S. media system is similar around the globe. To overcome these weaknesses, this content analysis (n = 1200) of protest-related news coverage in two Balkan and two Central American countries examines how media clientelism-manifested via ownership, concentration, and state advertising-influences media representations of protesters. Results highlight important regional differences in protest coverage, and confirm the role of government and elites in clientelist environments is more complex than hypothesized. We found that while clientelism contributes to the protest paradigm, delegitimizing coverage is not automatic, and varies by frame and media ownership, as political and economic interests differentially influence protest coverage depending not just on the outlets’ ties to the state, but also the social contexts surrounding the protests themselves.
大多数调查新闻媒体对抗议者描述的抗议范式研究都是基于这样一种假设,即这种范式在美国媒体系统内的运作方式在全球范围内是相似的。为了克服这些弱点,本内容分析(n = 1200)在两个巴尔干和两个中美洲国家的抗议相关新闻报道中,研究了通过所有权、集中度和国家广告表现出来的媒体客户主义如何影响媒体对抗议者的表现。结果突出了抗议报道的重要地区差异,并证实了政府和精英在客户主义环境中的作用比假设的更复杂。我们发现,虽然庇护主义有助于抗议范式,但取消报道的合法性并不是自动的,而且随着框架和媒体所有权的不同而不同,因为政治和经济利益对抗议报道的影响不同,这不仅取决于媒体与国家的关系,还取决于抗议活动本身的社会背景。

Do sex and violence sell internationally? A moderating role of cultural differences in the mediation effect of age ratings on the relationship between films’ content elements and worldwide box office performance 性和暴力在国际上流行吗?文化差异在年龄分级对电影内容元素与全球票房表现关系的中介作用中的调节作用

Although the determinants of films’ box office performance have been extensively examined in the past, there is a gap in the literature with regard to how the mediation effect of age ratings for movies on the relationship between content elements and box office performance differs across cultures. Through a moderated mediation analysis of films released in 111 countries in the past 100 years (between 1921 and 2020), this paper finds that when there are wider cultural distances between the home and host countries, content with higher levels of violence and morally loaded behaviors reap greater box office revenues in host countries. However, in total, movies with higher elements of violent content rather than content related to morally loaded behaviors contribute to high box office revenues in the international film market.
尽管过去已经对电影票房表现的决定因素进行了广泛的研究,但在不同文化背景下,电影年龄评级对内容元素和票房表现之间关系的中介作用如何不同,文献中存在差距。通过对过去100年(1921年至2020年)在111个国家上映的电影进行适度的中介分析,本文发现,当母国和东道国之间的文化距离更大时,暴力程度更高、道德行为更重的内容在东道国会获得更大的票房收入。然而,总的来说,在国际电影市场上,暴力内容含量较高的电影,而不是与道德负载行为有关的内容,有助于获得高票房收入。

Sticking to the status quo with a twist: Western media representations of fiscal negotiations during the Greek economic crisis 改变现状:西方媒体对希腊经济危机期间财政谈判的报道

In a volatile global economic system, the need for comprehensive media portrayal of economic crises intensifies. Crises expose the deficiencies of existing financial systems and present opportunities for structural change, but media coverage consistently promotes hegemonic structures. During the Great Recession of 2008, media narratives of Greek and foreign newspapers represented Greece's debt crisis as a national problem rather than a systemic problem. This study examines newspaper coverage of the Greek economic crisis in the summer of 2015 to explore whether the lack of comprehensive coverage persisted in the aftermath of the Great Recession. A qualitative content analysis of legacy newspapers suggests the press has become more rigorous in interpreting the underlying mechanisms of a crisis instead of solely covering episodic events, but with a caveat: most analysis comes from editorials. The findings indicate that financial systems are portrayed as unmalleable institutions.
在动荡的全球经济体系中,媒体对经济危机进行全面报道的必要性加剧。危机暴露了现有金融体系的不足,并为结构变革提供了机会,但媒体报道一直在宣扬霸权结构。在2008年大衰退期间,希腊和外国报纸的媒体报道将希腊的债务危机描述为一个国家问题,而不是一个系统性问题。这项研究考察了2015年夏天报纸对希腊经济危机的报道,以探讨大衰退后是否持续缺乏全面报道。对传统报纸的定性内容分析表明,媒体在解释危机的潜在机制方面变得更加严格,而不是仅仅报道偶发事件,但需要注意的是:大多数分析都来自社论。研究结果表明,金融系统被描绘成无法收集的机构。

Selective exposure during uprisings: A comparative study of news uses in Chile, Hong Kong, Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon 起义期间的选择性曝光:智利、香港、伊朗、伊拉克和黎巴嫩新闻使用的比较研究

In periods of political unrest, media habits change significantly, allowing for new patterns of selectivity. This study's main contribution lies in its application of selective exposure theory and its comparison of people's media uses in five Global South polities that witnessed widespread protests in 2019: Chile, Hong Kong, Iran, Iraq, and Lebanon. It examines the relationship between people's trust in the media and selective exposure at a global comparative level and within the contexts of political upheavals and hyperconnected media systems. The study also assesses the relationship between issue publics and participation in protests. Using cross-sectional surveys in each of the five countries/regions, it compares participants’ support for the protests and their exposure to legacy and social media. The findings reveal that media trust and issue publics play a significant role in determining the level of preference for pro-attitudinal news content. Trusting pro-attitudinal TV channels relates to following pro-attitudinal TV channels, and trusting counter-attitudinal TV channels relates to following counter-attitudinal TV channels. In addition, the strong issue publics group was more likely than the weak and moderate issue publics groups to participate in street protests.
在政治动荡时期,媒体习惯发生了重大变化,形成了新的选择性模式。这项研究的主要贡献在于,它应用了选择性曝光理论,并比较了2019年发生广泛抗议的五个全球南方政治体(智利、香港、伊朗、伊拉克和黎巴嫩)的人民媒体使用情况。它在全球比较层面上,在政治动荡和超级互联媒体系统的背景下,研究了人们对媒体的信任与选择性曝光之间的关系。该研究还评估了议题公众与参与抗议活动之间的关系。它利用五个国家/地区的横断面调查,比较了参与者对抗议活动的支持程度以及他们对传统和社交媒体的接触程度。研究结果表明,媒体信任和问题公众在决定对态度新闻内容的偏好程度方面发挥着重要作用。信任支持态度的电视频道与追随支持态度的频道有关,信任反态度的电视节目与追随反态度的节目有关。此外,强势议题公众团体比弱势和温和议题公众团体更有可能参与街头抗议。

Empirical support for the Al-Jazeera Effect notion: Al-Jazeera's Twitter following 对半岛电视台效应概念的实证支持:半岛电视台的推特关注

Globalization scholars argue that the launch of Al-Jazeera has promoted a fairer horizontal news flow as a non-Western perspective entered the global public sphere leading to the Al-Jazeera Effect. In contrast, other scholars argue that Al-Jazeera outlets face biases and boycotts due to their Qatari origin, thus casting a shadow over the Al Jazeera Effect argument. This study employs an innovative approach to contribute to this debate by examining Al-Jazeera English (AJE) and AJ + 's Twitter following amongst four epistemic communities: ambassadors, foreign ministries, UN missions and journalists. The analysis found that AJE was consistently amongst the top five most followed new channels on Twitter, obtaining greater popularity than major Western news outlets such as Fox News and Sky News. This lends a unique empirical support for the Al-Jazeera Effect hypothesis. AJ + was found to be less popular, possibly due to its distinct nature as an online news platform.
全球化学者认为,随着非西方视角进入全球公共领域,导致半岛电视台效应,半岛电视台的推出促进了更公平的横向新闻流。相比之下,其他学者认为,半岛电视台的媒体由于其卡塔尔血统而面临偏见和抵制,从而给半岛电视台效应的论点蒙上了阴影。这项研究采用了一种创新的方法,通过研究半岛电视台英语(AJE)和AJ + '推特上有四个认知群体:大使、外交部、联合国代表团和记者。分析发现,AJE一直是推特上关注度最高的五个新频道之一,比福克斯新闻和天空新闻等西方主要新闻媒体更受欢迎。这为半岛电视台效应假说提供了独特的实证支持。AJ + 被发现不那么受欢迎,可能是因为它作为一个在线新闻平台的独特性质。

AJ + was found to be less popular, possibly due to its distinct nature as an online news platform.","PeriodicalId":47303,"journal":{"name":"International Communication Gazette","volume":"85 1","pages":"386 - 411"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49260113","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, the concept of “micro media system” is introduced to describe the relations between media and politics in microstates and societies. Drawing on ideas from the literature on democracy in microstates (Benedict, 1967; Corbett and Veenendaal, 2018; Sarapuu and Randma-Liiv, 2020), it is argued that despite their many differences, the smallest media systems share four characteristics linked to their micro size: (1) government domination, (2) high social integration and overlapping role-relationships, (3) multi-functionalism among journalists and media outlets, and (4) dependence on few individuals. These characteristics of micro media systems can weaken the media's position in society vis-à-vis other institutions. Whereas previous research on small media systems (e.g., Puppis, 2009) has considered size as a binary variable, in this article it is argued that the size of media systems is better perceived as a continuous variable. This implies that the characteristics of micro media systems become more pronounced the smaller the media system.
本文引入“微观媒体系统”的概念来描述微观国家和社会中媒体与政治的关系。根据微观国家民主文献中的观点(Benedict,1967;Corbett和Veenendaal,2018;Sarapuu和Randma Liiv,2020),尽管存在许多差异,但最小的媒体系统有四个与其微观规模相关的特征:(1)政府统治,(2)高度社会融合和重叠的角色关系,(3)记者和媒体的多功能主义,以及(4)对少数人的依赖。微媒体系统的这些特征可能会削弱媒体相对于其他机构在社会中的地位。尽管之前对小型媒体系统的研究(例如,Puppis,2009)认为规模是一个二元变量,但在本文中,媒体系统的规模最好被视为一个连续变量。这意味着媒体系统越小,微媒体系统的特征就越明显。
