De la création de l'ORTF en 1945 jusqu'à l'avènement de la gauche au pouvoir en 1981, la télévision en France était essentiellement une télévision d'Etat. Les mesures prises par François Mitterrand ont contribué à la diversification des chaînes de télévision. L'auteur s'intéresse à certaines chaînes généralistes reconnues pour mettre l'accent sur des programmes à contenu culturel.

This book examines the practices of actors involved in the media reportage of war, and the ways in which these practices may influence the conduct of modern military operations.

War is a complex phenomenon which raises numerous questions about the organization of society that continue to challenge all those involved in its study. Increasingly, this includes the need to engage theoretically and empirically with the progressive collapse between the ways in which wars are conducted and the manner in which they are reported in the media.

Drawing on the work of Erving Goffman, Military Media Management offers a distinctly new approach to our appreciation of the dynamic relationship between war and media; one that is fundamentally a product of social relations between those engaged in reporting war, and those conducting war campaigns. By exploring how and why the military manage information in particular ways, the text succeeds in providing a framework through which wider sociological investigation of this relationship can be understood.

This book will be of much interest to students of military and security studies, media studies, war and conflict studies and IR in general.

Although Al Jazeera English has yet to receive to receive the attention accorded to its Arabic-language elder sibling, it is in many ways the more interesting of the two. It seeks to redefine global news coverage by focusing on areas traditionally neglected by most news organizations, and its potential audience is many times larger than that of the Arabic channel. Its coverage of the 2111 Arab Spring brought the channel a large new audience. This is the first book to thoroughly examine this channel's coverage methods, its effects on its audience, and its place in the world of mediated geopolitics.

Los medios de comunicación tienen un presente incierto y un futuro negro. Pero cada día más estudiantes de periodismo salen de las universidades. Sus perspectivas laborales en el sector tradicional son limitadas, pero de repente ha surgido un campo nuevo y libre para cualquiera que quiera hacer periodismo: Internet. Microperiodismos reúne trece ejemplos de medios que periodistas independientes han creado en la Red, todos con distintas fórmulas. No hablan de teoría, sino de cómo tuvieron la idea y se esfuerzan para seguir adelante. Es otro modo de creer en este oficio. El modelo de negocio no está claro ni es el mismo para todos, pero la insistencia y la variedad de estos proyectos son señales de optimismo. Al final, un epílogo resume los rasgos que todo microperiodista debe reunir.
