Hoorcollege 1 – 8 januari
Wederzijdse afhankelijkheid van politici en media.
Wolfsfeld: vijf principes politieke communicatie
1. Political power can usually be translated into power over the news media
2. When the authorities lose control over the political environment they also
lose control over the news
3. There is no such a thing as objective journalism (nor can there be)
4. The media are dedicated more than anything else to telling a good story and
this can often have a major impact on the political process
5. The most important effect of the news media on citizens tend to be
unintentional and unnoticed
Media bias toward the powerful
Elite obsession limits range of political discourse
Political power = media power
- front door: the powerful get more/automatic media access
- back door: the powerless have to work hard to get into the media
inequality is not accidental, but structural (also in media)
Noam Chomsky: the political economy of mass media
Gaat ervan uit dat economische machtsstructuren worden gereproduceerd in de
media. Vijf filters van de media in tentamen!
Edward Herman: developed the propaganda model of media criticism arguing that
market forces, internalized assumptuons and self-censorship motivate newspapers
and television networks to stifle dissent.
Herman and Chomsky describe media as businesses that sell a product (audiences)
to other businesses. Ze verkopen uw aandacht aan anderen.
Naive liberal model: drie machten + media die democratie ondersteunt
A well functioning media os of paramount importance for democratic societies:
- report events objectively as they occur, to allow citizens to make informed
political choices
Herman and Chomsky: US media fails to perform democratic task and are basically
akin to propaganda systems in totalitarian states.
Media vertelt opzettelijk verkeerde informatie, hierdoor wordt de media een
bedreiging voor de democratie ipv een pilaar.
