《把關人與傳播控制》PPT課件.ppt

1、第7講 把關人與傳播控制 Regulation of the Mass Media,傳媒內部控制研究 Internal Controls,新聞選擇的把關人（geetkeeper）理論 一、盧因的把關概念 1、1947年，盧因去丗前不久，在群體生活的渠道一文中首次提到“把關”（gatekeeping） 2、把關：指傳播者對信息進行篩選與過濾的行為 3、把關人：對信息進行篩選和過濾的人即把關人,施拉姆：在信息網(wǎng)絡中到處都設有把關人,例如： 記者決定報道哪些事實； 編輯決定發(fā)布哪些新聞； 作家決定反映哪些典型人物、事件、人生觀； 圖書管理員決定買什么書籍； 教師決定采用什么樣的教科書； 餐桌旁的丈夫

2、決定當天辦公室發(fā)生的新聞，哪些應該告訴妻子； 負責匯報的官員決定哪些情況向上級匯報,懷特的把關研究,1、懷特通過輸入信息與輸出信息的對比，考察在一個具體的把關環(huán)節(jié)上，信息是怎樣被過濾被篩選的。 輸入信息輸出信息=把關過濾信息 輸入信息 門區(qū) 輸出信息 2、懷特記錄一位編輯一周收到的全部稿件及用稿情況： 收到來稿11910條，用稿件1297條，大約90%被把關，只有10%左右被選用,N,N,N1,N2,N3,N4,N1,N4,N2,N3,M,門,受 眾,懷特把關模式,懷特把關模式的缺陷,該模式只是對新聞信息取舍過程的一種簡單概括，它指出了經(jīng)過大眾傳媒這道關口，某些信息得到入選，某些新聞遭到舍棄這

3、一事實，但并沒說明哪些新聞會得到入選，哪些新聞會遭到舍棄，而這個問題才涉及把關過程的實質。 將把關人當作一個孤立的因素來考察，過分強調把關人的獨立權限，忽略了社會因素對把關人的制約。,E,R,S1,S2,S3,S4,S5,S6,C1,C2,C3,C4,C5,C6,各種 事件,新聞 受眾,C：把關人 S：新聞,麥克內利（McNelly）的把關鏈模式,麥克內利的把關鏈模式評述,該模式顯示了各項國際新聞在由新聞源傳向受眾的過程中是如何通過多個個體“把關人”的。 優(yōu)點： 1、整個信息流通過程中存在著一條有許多關口組成的把關鏈； 2、表現(xiàn)了新聞是如何進入下一關口的，它既可能代替已經(jīng)存在的新聞項，也可能與

4、它們并為一體。 缺點：把每個把關人及其作用都等同了，不分主次,新聞 事件,新聞采集者,新聞 稿件,新聞加工者,新聞 成品,第一階段,第二階段,比如： 作者 記者 當?shù)鼐庉?比如： 編輯 改稿人員 翻譯,巴斯（Bass）的“雙重行動模式”,對巴斯把關模式的評述,巴斯雖然著眼于個體“把關人”，但他認為，只有在新聞組織機構內的個體活動才有意義。 他提出新聞“把關人”的“把關”功能不盡相同。 巴斯將個體“把關人”的研究從懷特對單個新聞加工者的研究拓寬為對明顯分為兩類的多重“把關人”的研究。,影響傳播者把關的因素,政治法律因素：社會政治制度決定傳播制度 經(jīng)濟因素：經(jīng)濟控制遠比政府的控制影響大 社會文化因

5、素：社會價值體系和文化開放程度。J.魯爾中國打開了電視 信息自身的因素：信息價值 組織自身的因素：要求、規(guī)范、傳統(tǒng) 受眾因素：社會需要、受眾結構 技術因素：條件 傳播者個人因素：世界觀、個性、水平,“把關”過程的實質,大眾傳媒的新聞或信息生產(chǎn)與傳播并不具有純粹的“客觀中立性”，而是依據(jù)傳媒的一定立場、方針和價值標準所進行的一種有目的的取舍選擇加工活動； 新聞和信息的選擇受到媒介經(jīng)營目標、受眾需求以及社會文化等多種因素的制約，但與媒介方針和利益一致的內容更容易優(yōu)先入選； 傳媒的把關是一個多環(huán)節(jié)、有組織的過程，其中雖也有編輯、記者個人的活動，但在媒介內部控制機制的作用下，個人因素所起的作用是有限的

The governing body, the FCC, doesnt

9、 to renew a license,Regulating Cable TV,Cable TV has had a history of on-again, off-again regulations, but the latest regulations arose due to widespread consumer complaints against rising fees and poor service; in response, Congress passed the Cable TV Act of 1992, which re-instated the FCCs power

The Communist Theory says the media are owned by the people and operated through the state, the purpose being to support the Marxist system and the Communist party
