Doelstellingen: Dit werk onderzoekt in welke mate de Amerikaanse oorlogspropaganda uit de Eerste Wereldoorlog en de Irak-oorlog overgenomen is in artikels in de Amerikaanse kwaliteitskrant The New York Times. Hiervoor werden honderd krantenartikels uit The New York Times verzameld. Vijftig hiervan behandelen de Eerste Wereldoorlog en de andere vijftig de Irak-oorlog. Deze artikels werden geanalyseerd aan de hand van de principes van Carpentier (1999) en Ponsonby (1928). Middelen of methode: Dit onderzoek is gebaseerd op de procedure die door Meyer & Wodak (2001) uitgestippeld werd. Eerst werd er achtergrondinformatie over de betreffende oorlogen en over The New York Times opgezocht, vervolgens werden er krantenartikels verzameld, hierna werden de oorlogsprincipes van Carpentier en de oorlogsgeboden van Ponsonby bestudeerd en geanalyseerd. Ten slotte werden de artikels geanalyseerd aan de hand van de principes van Carpentier (1999) en aan de hand van Morelli's (2003) analyse van de oorlogsgeboden van Ponsonby (1928). Resultaten: Uit dit onderzoek is gebleken dat de Amerikaanse oorlogspropaganda zowel in de krantenartikels over de Eerste Wereldoorlog, als in die over de Irak-oorlog in relatief sterke mate overgenomen werd door de journalisten van The New York Times. In de artikels over de Eerste Wereldoorlog werden er echter een aantal principes van zowel Carpentier (1999) als van Ponsonby (1928) niet of in beperkte mate teruggevonden. Het moderne principe virtualisering werd in geen enkel artikel van het corpus teruggevonden, aangezien dit een typisch principe voor het digitale tijdperk is en betrekking heeft op visuele media. Verder werden er weinig voorbeelden van personificatie teruggevonden. Ook werd Ponsonby's achtste oorlogsgebod waarin de steun van kunstenaars en intellectuelen wordt benadrukt, slechts in beperkte mate en gedeeltelijk teruggevonden in zowel de artikels over WOI, als in die over de Irak-oorlog. Het tiende oorlogsgebod dat de twijfelaars van de propaganda als verraders beschouwt, werd ook niet teruggevonden in de artikels over WOI. In de artikels over de Irak-oorlog was er meer plaats voor kritiek van zowel journalisten als van externen, en kwamen de opinies van tegenstanders van de VS uitgebreider aan bod. De artikels over de Eerste Wereldoorlog beperkten zich hoofdzakelijk tot de publicatie van de officiële militaire rapporten van beide kampen in de oorlog. Er kan dus aangenomen worden dat de Amerikaanse oorlogspropaganda tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog in mindere mate gecontesteerd werd door de journalisten van The New York Times dan tijdens de Irak-oorlog.

The Danger of Music gathers some two decades of Richard Taruskin's writing on the arts and politics, ranging in approach from occasional pieces for major newspapers such as the New York Times to full-scale critical essays for leading intellectual journals. Hard-hitting, provocative, and incisive, these essays consider contemporary composition and performance, the role of critics and historians in the life of the arts, and the fraught terrain where ethics and aesthetics interact and at times conflict. Many of the works collected here have themselves excited wide debate, including the title essay, which considers the rights and obligations of artists in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. In a series of lively postscripts written especially for this volume, Taruskin, America's "public" musicologist, addresses the debates he has stirred up by insisting that art is not a utopian escape and that artists inhabit the same world as the rest of society. Among the book's forty-two essays are two public addresses-one about the prospects for classical music at the end of the second millennium C. E., the other a revisiting of the performance issues previously discussed in the author's Text and Act (1995)-that appear in print for the first time.

After Adolph Ochs purchased The New York Times in 1896, Zionism and the eventual reality of the State of Israel were framed within his guiding principle, embraced by his Sulzberger family successor, that Judaism is a religion and not a national identity. Apprehensive lest the loyalty of American Jews to the United States be undermined by the existence of a Jewish state, they adopted an anti-Zionist critique that remained embedded in its editorials, on the Opinion page and in its news coverage. Through the examination of evidence drawn from its own pages, this book analyzes how all the news "fit to print" became news that fit the Times' discomfort with the idea, and since 1948 the reality, of a thriving democratic Jewish state in the historic homeland of the Jewish people.

"Intro to Poetry Writing is always like this: a long labor, a breech birth, or, obversely, mining in the dark. You take healthy young Americans used to sunshine (aided sometimes by Xanax and Adderall), you blindfold them and lead them by the hand into a labyrinth made from bones. Then you tell them their assignment: 'Find the Grail. You have a New York minute to get it.'"--The Poetry Lesson The Poetry Lesson is a hilarious account of the first day of a creative writing course taught by a "typical fin-de-siècle salaried beatnik"--one with an antic imagination, an outsized personality and libido, and an endless store of entertaining literary anecdotes, reliable or otherwise. Neither a novel nor a memoir but mimicking aspects of each, The Poetry Lesson is pure Andrei Codrescu: irreverent, unconventional, brilliant, and always funny. Codrescu takes readers into the strange classroom and even stranger mind of a poet and English professor on the eve of retirement as he begins to teach his final semester of Intro to Poetry Writing. As he introduces his students to THE TOOLS OF POETRY (a list that includes a goatskin dream notebook, hypnosis, and cable TV) and THE TEN MUSES OF POETRY (mishearing, misunderstanding, mistranslating . . . ), and assigns each of them a tutelary "Ghost-Companion" poet, the teacher recalls wild tales from his coming of age as a poet in the 1960's and 1970's, even as he speculates about the lives and poetic and sexual potential of his twenty-first-century students. From arguing that Allen Ginsberg wasn't actually gay to telling about the time William Burroughs's funeral procession stopped at McDonald's, The Poetry Lesson is a thoroughly entertaining portrait of an inimitable poet, teacher, and storyteller.

A revealing look at how user behavior is powering deep social divisions online-and how we might yet defeat political tribalism on social mediaIn an era of increasing social isolation, platforms like Facebook and Twitter are among the most important tools we have to understand each other. We use social media as a mirror to decipher our place in society but, as Chris Bail explains, it functions more like a prism that distorts our identities, empowers status-seeking extremists, and renders moderates all but invisible. Breaking the Social Media Prism challenges common myths about echo chambers, foreign misinformation campaigns, and radicalizing algorithms, revealing that the solution to political tribalism lies deep inside ourselves.Drawing on innovative online experiments and in-depth interviews with social media users from across the political spectrum, this book explains why stepping outside of our echo chambers can make us more polarized, not less. Bail takes you inside the minds of online extremists through vivid narratives that trace their lives on the platforms and off-detailing how they dominate public discourse at the expense of the moderate majority. Wherever you stand on the spectrum of user behavior and political opinion, he offers fresh solutions to counter political tribalism from the bottom up and the top down. He introduces new apps and bots to help readers avoid misperceptions and engage in better conversations with the other side. Finally, he explores what the virtual public square might look like if we could hit "reset" and redesign social media from scratch through a first-of-its-kind experiment on a new social media platform built for scientific research.Providing data-driven recommendations for strengthening our social media connections, Breaking the Social Media Prism shows how to combat online polarization without deleting our accounts
