STRUGGLING TO BREATHE: THE THORNY ROAD THAT SRI LANKAN COMMUNITY RADIO TRAVELLED THROUGH

Radio is considered as the most widespread electronic mass medium in the world and a unique means of reaching the world‟s poorest communities. However, as far as community radio (CR) is concerned, it addresses issues relevant to the public interest of a particular geographic group or community. It is the foremost medium that gives the marginalised a voice, when their voices are suppressed by the haves and the mainstream mass media which is also under the control of haves. The community radio in Sri Lanka has a four decade old history; yet, the country stands the risk of having this pioneering experience with CR locked away as a memory, as, of now, there is no community radio in true sense available in Sri Lanka. This paper has attempted to find out the reasons behind the failure of community radio broadcasting in Sri Lanka. Using semi-structured indepth interviews, eight leading community radio activists, advocates and researchers in Sri Lanka were interviewed. The causes identified for the failure of CR in Sri Lanka are state control over CR stations, an inexistent legal framework for community radio, inadequate funding, and human resources, misconceptions of responsible government authorities‟, the lack of knowledge about the true sense and relevance of community radio, the appointment of permanent staff from Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation than giving more priority to the volunteers from the same community, competition with mainstream media, and less dedication to community radio.

Diskusijas par terminu „mediji” latviešu valodā tā pētīšanas aspektā

This paper is based on reflections after an emotional discussion on the word and term medijs(i) (‘medium’) in Latvian that broke out during the yearly conference The Word: Aspects of Research at Liepāja University, in November 2019. The aim of this paper is not to blame or replace the broadly spread two-word term plašsaziņas līdzekļi with an anglicism mediji. In Latvia, there are many titles and documents where this term has a permanent and stable place. Such as, for example, The National Electronic Mass Media Council. At the same time, it is time to recognise the use of the word medijs(i) as an entirely accepted synonym of plašsaziņas līdzeklis(ļi) and even as a semantically more broadly usable term in the context of developing information and communication technologies. As this short insight into the research of the word shows, the term is already currently used not only among professionals but also on the level of state institutions, public and private organisations, and companies. On the other hand, especially in the contexts of communication science, arts, and philosophy, the spectrum of meanings of the word medijs(i) in the vocabulary of modern Latvian must be broadened.

Scout Participation in Public Health Activities in the Jabodetabek Region in 2020

Health problems cannot be solved by health officials alone. The scout movement with millions of members throughout Indonesia clearly has a very important role in this. Scout members as millennial youth can be important agents of change, both for fellow youths, for parents and their families as well as for society as a whole. The members of the Ventura Scouts (16-20 years) andRover Scouts (20-25 years) in Indonesia number around 3.6 million (16% of 23 million). The study aims to observe the participation of the Ventura Scout and Rover Scouts who carry out various activities in the public health in the Jabodetabek area and which media cover/report on these Scouting activities.
 The research is qualitative in nature by observing news of Scout involvement in the public health activities in electronic mass media, print media and online media from January to June 2020. To complete the information, the researchers conducted in-depth interviews with several connected coaches and scouts. The analysis is carried out simply by comparing which media do the most news coverage/broadcasting about scout activities in the publicc health activities, and what motivations make scouts involved in public health activities.
 The research results showed that the of Ventura Scoutand Pandega Scouts were heavily involved in the public health activities, especially during the Covid19 pandemic, among others, distributing masks, becoming counselors, becoming role models. It turned out that online media was mostly followed by print and electronic media which covered and reported on the Ventura Scout and Rover Scout activities. This is also because the Ventura Scoutand Pandega Scouts are contributors to online media news, moreover Scouts have the tagline "Every Scout is a reporter". Meanwhile, the print and electronic media reported little about Scouting activities because they were more interesting in reporting on other youth groups. While the motivation of the Ventura Scoutsand Rover Scouts to be involved in public health activities because in accordance with Tri Satya and Dasa Darma Pramuka, among others, are helping others in life, participating in building the nation, loving nature and affection for fellow humans and being willing to help, and being responsible as citizens.
 The conclusion is that Scout involvement in the public health activities is quite often carried out in the Jabodetabek area in accordance with existing health problems in the local location. Scouts have been motivated to carry out humanitarian activities because of the pledge and promises contained in Tri Satya and Darma Pramuka. Online media reported the most on Scouting activities because the tagline "Every Scout is a reporter", while print media and electronic media reported the least on Scouting activities. The recommendation put forward is that every Scout carrying out activities in the health sector must be equipped with PPE (personal protective equipment), and the Scout Movement must continue to collaborate on an ongoing basis with the mass media, both printed, electronic and online.

From Sididoms to Coronapofigists (Names of Persons During the Coronavirus Pandemic)

This article reviews the new lexical material related to the coronavirus pandemic. The empirical material was collected in the electronic database Integrum. The subject of the collected material are names of persons which were used in electronic mass media (newspapers, magazines, blogs, social networks). The volume of the lexical corpus counts about 90 neolexemes, which makes up a significant part of the collected corpus of lexical, word-formation, semantic innovations in the Russian language. Presumably, their number may be more than 600. The following thematic groups are revealed: 1) coronavirus patients; 2) law-abiding citizens complied with quarantine requirements; 3) quarantine violators; 4) alarmists; 5) victims of the pandemic; 6) volunteers; 7) medical personnel; 8) legal Offenders; 9) children born between December 2020 and March 2021. In the analyzed material, there is graphical and orthographic variability, reflecting the spoken language in written texts; the grade of unification is rather low. The Innovations are: 1) direct borrowings (their number is not too big); 2) calques; 3) actualized lexemes (under the influence of Anglo-American words); 4) words appeared in the Russian language but inspired by the pandemic theme and the extraordinary situation of severe quarantine. Most of the lexical innovations are author’s individual words; the share of words belonging to conventional lexemes is about 20–30 ones. The research methods are derived from the research questions, i.e. systemic, classification, deductive, inductive ones.

Effect of N-Gram on Document Classification on the Naïve Bayes Classifier Algorithm

News has become a major need for everyone, with news we can get the information needed. News can be distributed in the form of print mass media, electronic mass media and online media. The means of spreading the news now have grown very rapidly, making the amount of information being managed are bigger and word management classified also not small. herefore, we need a system for classifying documents that are not structured. In this study, word processing in a document is done by N-Gram as a feature generation. The document classification process is carried out using the Naïve Bayes Classifier algorithm. This study examines the effect of N-Gram on document classification on the Naïve Bayes Classifier algorithm. The results of the classification accuracy of documents by applying N-Gram is 32.68% and without applying N-Gram is 84.97%. A decrease in the classification results occurs the number of features that result from solving N-Gram that is unique or dominant to another category. The accuracy of the results obtained shows that the application of N-Gram in the classification of documents using the Naïve Bayes Classifier algorithm gives a decreased effect on the performance of the classification

СЕМАНТИЧЕСКИЙ АСПЕКТ АНГЛИЙСКИХ НЕОЛОГИЗМОВ С ГЕНДЕРНЫМ КОМПОНЕНТОМ ЗНАЧЕНИЯ

The article presents the results of semantic analysis of English neologisms with the gender component in their meaning which were registered in lexicographic resources during the XXI century (100 units). The research resulted in distinguishing several thematic groups of new words that characterize men and women according to various parameters: appearance, family relations, professional activity, spheres of interests and others. The obtained results enabled to come to conclusion that social conscience and public worldview affected the process of formation of new lexical items that reflect the changing male and female features and their attitude to the reality. Componential analysis revealed evaluative component in the meaning of some new words, most of which present the negative characteristics of men. This paper also examines gender marked neologisms functioning (2427 tokens) in electronic mass media (450 articles) and demonstrates their wide circulation in various articles. Emerging of gender-marked neologisms and their use can be the evidence of the changes in the perception of gender roles in the society and, correspondingly, in the linguistic picture of the world.

Saudi society in labyrinth of cyberspace and electronic media

Development of TV and Internet is changing general and political culture of the Saudi citizens. The Kingdom is the most conservative country in the Middle East. The number of iPhones per 1000 citizens put the Kingdom on the third place in the world. And the government seeks ways and means to filter the information available for the users in electronic mass media and in the cyberspace forbidding penetration of the opposition political views, criticism of the huge royal family, disagreement in the Wahhabi doctrine or just critical views towards Wahhabi ulemas. The government created a gigantic proxy-server in the KingAbdulazizCity for Science and Technology which uses a firewall against both political and moral “inappropriate” information.

Індикатори виявлення негативного психологічного впливу під час моніторингу електронних засобів масової інформації

The submission of directed information in the form of text messages allows to carry out psychological influence on certain target audiences in order to form the foreseeable consequences, including useful to the opponent. The existing approaches to monitoring the Internet for the detection of negative psychological influence, as well as their disadvantages are analyzed. Indicators of detection of negative psychological influence on the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during monitoring of electronic mass media were suggested. The system of the given indicators allows to quantify the level of negative psychological influence during the conduct of the enemy’s special actions on the Internet. It allows to predict the development of events and to timely take measures of information counteraction. Quantitative indicators of negative psychological impact in text messages of electronic mass media allow to objectively assess the level of danger to a specific target audience and to minimize the level of subjectivity during monitoring of Internet resources. Indicators combine a comprehensive approach to detecting negative psychological effects through semantic and statistical methods. The results of this work can be implemented as a module of specialized software in the subsystem of detecting negative psychological impact on the personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Semantic shifts in verbalization of the ethical concept “boon” in electronic mass-media

The relevance of the article is conditioned by the specific role of the Internet space nowadays. The authors analyze the changes of ethical semantics of the concept “boon” on the material of lexical units in modern electronic mass-media compared with the semantic field represented in explanatory dictionaries. On the material of explanatory dictionaries of Old Church Slavonic and Russian languages the authors conducted a diachronic analysis, described ethical semantic components of the concept, pointed out always actual meanings “kindness”, “gifts of the Holy Spirit”, “love”, “mercy”, “benefaction”. The novelty of the article is in pointing out the changes in the name of the concept - lexeme “boon”. The authors showed that abstract senses are increasing in its semantics - “everything, that is good”. But in the end of the XXth ethical senses actualize again, the senses which were characteristic for the concept in Old Russian period and were ideologically deactualized in the beginning and in the middle of the century. The analysis of modern electronic mass-media, which greatly influence national consciousness nowadays, showed that in this material the lexeme “boon” appears to be semantically incomplete, realizes additional function and only historically reminds us of one of the most important concepts of Russian language worldview. Therefore, we need “ethical censorship” in relation to the words verbalizing significant concepts of Russian mentality. The results of the research can be used in creating texts of different styles and genres for mass-media, in teaching Russian (as a non-native and native language), in releasing forensic linguistic expertise.

Latvian public service broadcasting (PSB) at a media policy crossroads on the path to public service media (PSM)

This paper critically examines Latvian media policy from the point of view of public value theory, regarding the management of public service media. Since 1992, Latvian Television (LTV, 1954) and Latvian Radio (LR, 1925) officially, i.e. according to law, are independent public service media organisations, and consequently two legal entities. In fact LTV and LR are two state enterprises with one supervising council (five members) elected by parliament according to political proportionality – National Electronic Mass Media Council (the NEPLP). Since 2011, the Latvian government has been slowly deciding plans for the reform and creation of a unified PSM corporation, not just a PSB, i.e. including not only radio and TV broadcasting but a multimedia approach, especially on the Internet platform, due to media convergence. Political decisions of government and parliament for the above-mentioned intent are still wanted. Also, an initiative by LTV and NEPLP to establish a Russian language TV channel was not taken further by decision makers.
