“You are a little old and a little white”: the complex representation of diversity issues in late night television in Late Night (Ganatra, 2019)

This article focuses on the movie Late Night (2019, Nisha Ganatra) and explores the limits and efficiency of its discourse on issues of racism and misogyny in the working environment that is the world of late-night television in the United States. The story takes place behind the scenes of a fictional late-night show, Tonight with Katherine Newbury, whose host, played by Emma Thompson, is about to be retired because of her poor ratings. She is saved by the arrival of Molly Patel (Mindy Kaling), a young, and inexperienced, Indian American writer, then the only woman and person of color in her all-white male writers’ room. While the movie presents a counter-hegemonic stance, critical of the lack of diversity in late-night television, upon closer analysis, its argument appears to be somewhat limited. Indeed, the movie does not really question the root causes for the continued absence of women and/or people of color, both in front and behind the cameras of late-night shows, nor does it challenge issues of institutional racism. Mindy Kaling, who wrote the script, focused the story on Molly saving the show and finding her place in the writers’ room, thus delivering a prime example of what has been dubbed “neoliberal multiculturalism”: celebrating the success of the few while ignoring structural inequalities.

Hasn't the time finally come for the establishment of a World Government?

On Holy Thursday, April 11, 1963, Pope John XXIII signed live on the world's television stations his last and long- awaited encyclical _Pacem in Terris_. Its writing prompted several world events in this period only 18 years after the end of World War II, the period also called the Cold War. Half a year earlier, on October 11, 1962, the Second Vatican Council began, and we still have before our eyes the ceremony with which Pope Francis commemorated the 60th anniversary of its opening in the Basilica of St. Peter with the exposed remains of St. John XXIII with his famous homily critically reacting to various ideological movements in the Church. However, the events of the so-called The Cuban crisis brought John XXIII to the idea of writing a radical anti-war Encyclical letter. Despite the fact that the very name of the Encyclical letter was misused by the communists to create the so-called the peace movement of priests in several countries of the Soviet bloc and therefore reminds us of the significant events of the given time, the Encyclical remains surprisingly relevant even 60 years after it was written.

Tension between Journalistic and Entertainment Values in Live Soccer TV Commentary: The Commentator’s Perspective

This article examines the tension between journalistic and entertainment values in live soccer TV commentary from the perspective of German commentators. We situate journalistic and entertainment values within the commentators’ wider understanding of their roles as sports journalists and commentators, looking at a specific type of sports journalist who has different responsibilities from the general sports reporter. We asked how soccer commentators assess the role of journalistic and entertainment values in their work, and what constraints they face, such as how the perceived expectations of their employer affect this assessment. We interviewed 28 TV commentators, one radio commentator, and one expert working for relevant German TV channels and streaming platforms, such as ZDF, Sky, and DAZN. While all interviewees see themselves as companions telling the story of the match, most commentators in the sample value journalistic values over entertainment values, a surprising finding in the hyper-commercialized world of sports television. Well-founded journalistic expertise and soccer knowledge are considered most important. However, this assessment depends on factors such as the broadcaster’s guidelines and the nature of the match. In summary, the role of the commentator is either an ‘objective mediator’ or an ‘emotional entertainer’, but this is a balancing act.

The Gulf War as Simulacra: An Analysis of Vishwa Ghatana [World Affairs] on Nepal Television

Between early August 1990 and the end of February 1991, the coverage of the Persian Gulf War on Cable News Network (CNN) television showcases a comprehensive example of simulacra. Based on Jean Baudrillard's ideas of postmodern simulacra and simulation, this paper attempts to demonstrate how the simulacra of the Gulf War appeared before the Nepali audience through a domestic nationwide channel. The major source of news and perspectives of the contents of Nepal Television's world affairs program were the reports and images of CNN. The paper, with an approach to looking into the event retrospectively, demonstrates a case where CNN used a comparatively small television channel in a developing country to disseminate its cultural product to the local audience in their vernacular language. Taking Nepal Television (NTV) and its Vishwa Ghatana [World Affairs], a program dedicated to the world affairs as a case in point, this paper examines relationships between the rhetoric and reality in the theoretical and conceptual frame of simulacra and simulation based on Baudrillard’s ideas.

Vicarious expertise: Locating skilled knowing in craft reality competition television

This article examines how qualities of expertise are constructed and sustained within the televisual world of craft reality competition television. We suggest that part of the appeal of this relatively recent media typology beyond any didactic or instructional interest, is a desire to observe expertise and thus gain perceived but highly circumscribed access to the community of practice that is presented by these television shows. We identify three principal expertise positions as common to the contemporary mediation of expertise presented by craft reality competition television: ‘keystone’, ‘relative’ and ‘vicarious’ expertise. It is argued that these different forms of expertise are mobilized as roles across a variety of craft reality competition television programs to enable entertaining access to craft practice-specific expertise which enables the audience to become experts of spectating expertise, masking the real time, effort, and access to hands-on training involved in becoming proficient in crafts practice.

Reality Crime Programs in Turkish Television: The Notorious Case of Palu Family on Müge

The crime drama has always been popular on radio and television. Following this popular programming type, these programs found its way into reality crime programs. The reality crime programs emerged in U.S television in the late 1980s as the combination of news, crime dramas, and even horror genre. The reality crime programs placed themselves mainly in two formats in the television world. There is a vignette format where actors reenact actual crimes, and another one is the live-action format. It is the 1990s for Turkey to introduce reality television to the audience. One of the popular programs that were first broadcasted on ATV in 2008 hosted by Müge Anlı is the Müge Anlı ile Tatlı Sert. After we discuss the popularity of the reality crime television and the cases from American television, MATS is discussed as a certain criminal case from Turkey. This case is publicly recognized as Palu Family. This article argues how the case of the Palu Family became a televised public psychosis in MATS which is a hybrid reality crime program. With this regard, we will study family violence, sexual abuse, and homicide that have become publicly available to the audience. Keywords: reality TV, reality crime programs, infotainment, crime, Turkish television, Müge Anlı

Diversified Services of Delivering the Passion of Reading to Campuses

Living in a world of television, computer games, and a visual online world, children and books become more distant. Reading habits of the next generation determine the future of the nation. Many nations in the world promote a reading environment, raising reading ability as policy priority. The Kaohsiung Public Library has been the landmark of effortful and proactive promotion of reading in southern Taiwan. In recent years, in order to complement school education, and raise national competency, the Kaohsiung Public Library has, based on the principal of “Customer Center, Proactive and Progressive”, reached out to numerous campuses, providing diversified services to promote and raise the level of literacy of school children. Mayor Ju-lan Ye, a great enhancer and promoter of reading, in addition to founding the “Reading with the Mayor: the Chrysanthemum Reading Club” to read with under-privileged groups, has added 5,000,000 NT dollars to the originally allocated budget for the purchase of books for elementary and middle schools to enrich the library collections. Through the various strategies to promote children’s reading, the Kaohsiung Public Library has disseminated the seeds for reading in every corner of campuses where students can read and enrich their lives in the world of books.

A ‘means of distribution’: Federico Fellini and Italian television1

This article will examine both the Fellinian imagery of television that is present in his films and the role of Fellini as a television ‘critic’. In the first part, we consider Federico Fellini’s entire filmography, focusing on the main cinematic texts that deal most explicitly with the world of television: Il bidone (The Swindle) (1955), La Dolce Vita (1960), Prova d’orchestra (Orchestra Rehearsal) (1979), Ginger e Fred (Ginger and Fred) (1986), Intervista (1988) and La voce della luna (The Voice of the Moon) (1989). In order to define Fellini’s thoughts on television and to compare this intellectual assertiveness to traces of his own involvement with several Italian television productions, we connect the analysis of his filmography with the study of Fellini’s comments, interviews and articles published in several Italian journals and magazines between the 1970s and 1980s. The aim of this article is to trace an organic relationship between Fellini and television, from the production of his films to his notes as an intellectual.

Se la tv è un white cube. Trasmissioni dell’arte nella televisione italiana degli anni Novanta

During the 1990s, artists, critics, animators and tv authors saw the possibility of a fruitful dialogue between their respective areas of expertise. This relationship between art and television, however, took place under the banner of a reciprocal rethinking of the two entities: in some cases the medium conditioned artists to the point of inducing them to define specific operating methods or to transform their own works, in others, on the other hand, it was the transmission of the works themselves that “reinvented the medium”. The performative incursions carried out by the duo Formento Sossella and Arpiani Pagliarini for popular programmes such as Blob, Forum and Uomini e Donne are indicative of a thinning between reality and fiction that is typical of the television world and that, not by chance, also affects a good part of Italian art of the decade. The broadcast on Rai Tre of shows such as Prima Puntata and Arte Video TV in the mid-1990s attests to the unexpected possibility of redefining television as a sort of artistic installation connected to specific exhibition occasions. The activity of Leonardo Carrano for L’Angelo (Fininvest) and the collaboration between Paolo Canevari and Alberto D’Amico in the context of Blobcartoon (Rai Tre) are two interesting cases of semantic shift of the work and the dissolution of its unity within the new visual paradigms. The contribution examines these experiences verifying each time their respective implications.

Silent Listening

This essay explores how one “listens to”—that is to say, how one takes in, makes sense of, and reacts to—“sounds” that are not really sounds at all but that are simply evocations of sounds served up by the authors of fiction. Although the essay’s conclusions apply to literary sounds in general, the examples on which the essay bases its observations and arguments are drawn—because their affective range is so very, very wide—from the vintage literature of so-called horror fiction. After a discussion of why some instances of scary literary sounds are more potent than others, emphasis is placed on sounds featured in the work of H. P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe, writers celebrated for their “aurality” yet whose structural use of sonic imagery—in dynamic patterns in the case of Lovecraft, as markers of plot points in the case of Poe—has hitherto been neglected. Throughout the essay parallels are of course drawn between literary sounds and actual sounds encountered both in the real world and in the fictional worlds of film, television, and radio drama. Readers of the essay are invited to decide for themselves, but it is suggested here that “silent listening”—because it demands creative involvement on the part of its participants—results in a richer aesthetic experience.
