Print media

The Mapping Digital Media project, which examines the changes in-depth, aims to build bridges between researchers and policymakers, activists, academics and standard-setters across the world. It also builds policy capacity in countries where this is less developed, encouraging stakeholders to participate in and influence change. At the same time, this research creates a knowledge base, laying foundations for advocacy work, building capacity and enhancing debate. The Mapping Digital Media project assesses, in the light of these values, the global opportunities and risks that are created for media by the following developments: the switch-over from analog broadcasting to digital broadcasting; growth of new media platforms as sources of news; convergence of traditional broadcasting with telecommunications. Covering 60 countries, the project examines how these changes affect the core democratic service that any media system should provide—news about political, economic and social affairs.

Although public relations has been a controversial subject for the print media as far back as the early 1900s, there have been few studies that have addressed the profession's media image. This study examines how the print media portrayed the public relations field from 1980 through 1989. Using the words "public relations and practitioners" and "public relations and profession" in an on-line search via the Lexis-Nexis Academic Universe, 58 such articles were obtained from three American newspapers: The New York Times, the Washington Post, and The Los Angeles Times. A content analysis resulted in three coded groups: favorable, unfavorable and neutral. General findings revealed the overall public relations print image as favorable (24.1%), unfavorable (46.5%) and neutral (29.3%). In the study's breakdown of characterizations, "favorable" and "neutral" characterizations included three portrayals: like any other profession (20.7%); as an advertising, communication, publicity, or image profession (20.7%); and as a business with economic or political power or influence (12.1%). "Unfavorable" included four portrayals, as: deceptive (24%); immature, weak or superficial (12%); discriminatory (7%), and intimidating, harassing, or conflicting (3.5%). A significant number of the unfavorable articles were written not by journalists, but by public relations practitioners themselves. If this is still the case in a suggested follow-up study, responsibility for correcting the public relations' unfavorable image should be assigned to the public relations practitioners.

The role of media has today stretched far beyond the supply of information because of the outreach and technological sophistication. The media as a chronicler of events, an informer, an educator, a transformative space and a tool to change society has the capacity to make a very positive contribution towards social change. By gradually shaping public opinion, personal beliefs and even people's self-perceptions, media influences the process of socialization and shapes ideology and thinking. The ongoing revolution in the field of media had opened up new avenues for accelerating the development and upliftment of women. In the past few years, there has been an improved and enhanced coverage of issues related to women in print media, especially newspapers. News related to them, have started to periodically occupy key slots like editorials, features, news, etc. But portrayal through media reinforces reality as well as stereotypes. It is believed that women in news are more likely to be featured in stories of sexual harassment, domestic violence, and crime and atrocities, rather than in stories about their professional abilities or expertise. Therefore, it has become necessary to know the nature of the portrayal of women and women issues in print media, so that women related issues are adequately represented in media. This research paper tried to analyze the print media coverage of two National newspapers and two Local Newspapers of Kashmir, regarding women to known the amount of coverage given to women and women related issues and the nature of such coverage. The research study found out that the women-related issues get negligible coverage in both local and national level newspapers; it is 0.8% in local newspapers and 2% in national newspapers. This insignificant coverage is dominated mostly by news stories related to Domestic Violence, Sexual Harassment, Suicide and Crime against Women. Introduction Media is the fastest and most popular access to information for the masses in the world today. With the rapid development of communication and the infrastructural development in recent years, media had provided the masses with a lot more access to information. Media determines the public discourse and therefore shapes our political, cultural, and economic priorities. It also determines and shapes the roles of men and women in our society (Joshi, et. al., 2006). It is a mirror to society and acts as an advocate of people. It provides a truthful, comprehensive and intelligent account of the events, by observing the events, transmitting facts about the events and acting as an interpreter of these events. Media through its increased influence over the masses is able to shape ideas, values, behavior, and concepts of the public. This information being delivered is both positive and negative. Of various fields covered by media, coverage, and portrayal of women in media is the focus of special attention in contemporary times, due to progress made by the women in almost all fields of life and also due to the decades of research, advocacy and political lobbying at the international level. All these have compelled the media to portray an enhanced and progressive image of women and women issues.

La civilisation du journal ne voit pas seulement apparaître une circulation accrue des idées, une extension du lectorat, un mode d’information tissé de romanesque et de nouveaux rythmes liés à la quotidienneté. Elle instaure aussi un rapport spécifique à l’objet en papier. À l’heure où triomphe la chose imprimée, la culture médiatique est éminemment matérielle : manipulations, appropriations, circulations invitent à considérer les usages concrets du livre, du journal, de la brochure et de l’affiche, depuis les modes d’étalage à la vente jusqu’aux modalités de collection du livre et de conservation du roman-feuilleton, en passant par le démembrement du tract et le recyclage de l’affiche. Cet article examine les objets en papier produits par les éditeurs de pittoresques et de littérature panoramique dans les années 1830-1860 en France.

This article analyzes how mass media proliferation influenced and changed advertising market in Czech Republic in 2010–2016. The analysis builds on a dataset containing a full monitoring data in Czech Republic in the selected years. The results indicate that various media types deal with the proliferation in a different way. The TV market experienced a short-term demand drop among the growing number of new TV channels. However in the longterm, the number of ads more than doubled compared to the available advertising space, while the cost of advertising space reduced. On the radio market, the advertising space remained unchanged. Still, the number of advertising space rose proportionally with the advertising expenditures by 25 per cent. The price of advertising space fluctuated and therefore no conclusion about the influence of the proliferation on the radio market can be formulated. Print market experienced a huge increase in the number of published titles, together with a significant drop in demand for the advertising space. The publishers tried to compensate the drop in demand by increasing the price of the advertising space. However this has only led to a further outflow of the advertisers. The proliferation was – esp. for the advertisers – a positive phenomenon, which allowed higher accessibility of the advertising market in mass media. The proliferation has also narrowed the gap between media companies on the market.

Journalists are not only storyteller but also they are the watchdog of the society for different dimensions. In the era of globalization when everything is changing very fast, the status of all human being is also changing with the same pace, whereas the status of Journalists in India especially in Rajasthan are stagnant and comparatively not standard. The paper tries to find out the socioeconomic status of the Print Journalist of Jaipur. The researcher also wants to study the role of socioeconomic status on their profession through Media habit. The Media habits and Socioeconomic backgrounds of the Journalists are identified by Questionnaire especially designed for this purpose. Data processing was done with the help of statistical tools and some manual calculations. It is recommended through this paper that the actions should be taken by the Print Media agencies to improve the Socioeconomic of the Print Journalists of Jaipur.Government of Rajasthan should take appropriate measures in this direction. And finally the Journalist should be highly skilled to cover their beats and related stories with due compassion and sincerity.

his article regards the development of computer-mediated communication in  the light of its relationship to traditional media offerings for a given brand. On the level of
entire categories of media, recent studies show that print is increasingly substituted by online services. However, the evidence of a direct relationship for one publisher’s brand is
still limited. The results are inconclusive and mostly refer only to a single genre within a category like newspapers or consumer magazines. On the basis of an analysis of circulation trends for selected German titles from various print categories and genres in relation to their online twins this deficit is addressed. Is the so-called “cannibalization” much feared
by publishers in the early origins of their online endeavors a real threat? In any case this fear severely hampered a clear determination to embark into the digital age and hence had
a significant influence on the development of editorial online offerings. We can show that for daily newspapers the contrary of cannibalization is the case: Outperformance of a
brand’s web site is positively correlated with the outperformance of its print circulation as
compared to its peers. For consumer magazines the relationship depends entirely on the
genre. While some behave like newspapers, others indeed face cannibalization effects. The fact that all these effects only appear at the end of the 2000s also documents the development of the patterns of media choice from users’ experimentation between media categories and individual services to more routine: The process of appropriation of online media.

Visual and cultural analysis of Meiji shōnen kaiko 明治少年懐古 (Reminiscences of a Meiji youth, 1944), an illustrated book that nostalgically recalls Japan's late nineteenth and early twentieth century period of modernization. The book is in the Pulverer Collection of Japanese illustrated books of the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC and is featured on The World of the Japanese Illustrated Book website. My commentary, along with a complete set of readable images of the book, may be found here: http://pulverer.si.edu/node/440/title/1.

Media holds a very significant role in liberal democratic regimes. Media actors influence the way social and political events are seen and evaluated. Free and plural media is the safeguard of a healthy democracy. Media has critical functions in a democratic regime. Journalism serves functions such as giving information, making investigation, and providing society a public forum. The main objective of this article is to seek answers to the questions of "how can the media profile and ownership in India be described" and "what is the nature of the relationship between media and politics in India". India has a developing media scene with thousands of outlets in multiple languages. Media in the country has been subjected to a structural change in recent years. India has a multi-party parliamentary democracy and media-as in other democracies-has a key role for Indian politics.

L’invention et le développement de l’imprimerie en Europe révolutionna l’accès au texte. L’accroissement exponentiel du nombre de livres disponibles au cours des dernières décennies du XVe siècle eut un impact profond sur l’ensemble de la société. Il mena à des modifications de paradigme tant dans la sphère religieuse, que dans celle du débat politique et de la manière de gouverner. Cet ouvrage donne les clefs pour appréhender ce médium dans sa matérialité en définissant avec précision l’objet lui-même, tout en retraçant l’historiographie de son étude par les historiens du livre. Il analyse les trois temps de l’imprimé : sa production dans les ateliers des imprimeurs à la demande de commanditaires institutionnels, privés, ou commerciaux, puis sa distribution et vente autant dans les centres où il était fabriqué que dans les échoppes et étals des petites villes, et enfin son utilisation par les femmes et les hommes de la période ainsi que leurs pratiques de lecture. Il présente ensuite l’interaction entre l’imprimé et les pouvoirs. Il s’agit ici d’apprécier la manière dont la nouvelle technologie a été utilisée par les pouvoirs traditionnels, les états et l’Église, mais aussi comment ceux-ci ont fait face à la contestation et à des courants d’opposition comme la Réforme. Enfin, il plonge dans le contenu des imprimés pour comprendre leur rôle dans la diffusion du savoir, dans le développement des textes littéraires, avant de considérer la question de l’apparition des journaux et des imprimés de controverse polémique.

A study of the limits of multilingual literary expression in print culture. Beginning with the insight that multilingual literature defies simple translation, Brian Lennon examines the resistance multilingual literature offers to book publication. Looking closely at the limit of multilingual literary expression and the literary journalism, criticism, and scholarship that comments on multilingual work, In Babel’s Shadow presents a critical reflection on the fate of literature in a world gripped by the crisis of globalization.

Laic cultural globalization is conceived as a material and spiritual process, deeply rooted in the evolution of humanity. Its delocating and moral disengaging features, the cultural monopoly (language, printed publications, media, music), are examined, and some counterbalancing phenomena are revealed. The interaction between different cultures through human migrations during the last two hundred years, and through mass tourism, leading to a new self-awareness of the humanity, is explored.

Using the Internet and other new information and communication technologies has become an inherent part of human life since a lot of our work and private activities take place in online environment-thanks to various communication tools such as smartphones, tablets, etc. These technologies have become also important ways and means used to acquire and disseminate information. The impact of technological progress on journalism and its products cannot be understated. The ongoing trends lead us to the conclusion that newspapers are currently looking for new ways of distribution and new forms of existence, especially in electronic environment, in order to attract the readers-users of new media and various technologies related to them. The basic assumption of the article is that their success fully depends on effective using of these technologies by people with physical disabilities or other disadvantages. Since these media also carry information contents, the form of the presentation of information always corresponds with the overall character of given medium. Mainly for this reason, the number of new applications for smartphones, tablets or smart televisions is increasing in these days. These applications react to the demands of effectiveness, intelligibility and interactivity of the offered services while the key factor that determines the selection of information is the reader, user of such devices. The aim of the article is to discuss the relationship between new communication technologies and journalism, focusing on new ways and forms of distribution of newspapers or-more specifically-selected news to the readers.

Today's trend there is a noticeable raise in the frequency of advertisements of slimming and weight loss products in print media.

Abstract
This study is intended to examine the operation of a sheet-fed offset press, the problems and their causes and the strategic management required to prevent operating problems or find possible solutions. A sheet-fed offset press is designed to print a single sheet of paper at a time. 
The problems encountered on a sheet-fed offset press are related to inking, dampening, operating, paper and machine maintenance. This study considers the relevance of make- ready and machine maintenance policy for printing companies.
The dissertation also focuses on how strategic management decisions could prevent, detect or solve printing-related problems and how print quality could be improved so that customer satisfaction can be achieved. 
The research methodologies that will be used in this study are questionnaire and press observation.

Art historians have long looked to letters to secure biographical details; clarify relationships between artists and patrons; and present artists as modern, self-aware individuals. This book takes a novel approach: focusing on Albrecht Dürer, Shira Brisman is the first to argue that the experience of writing, sending, and receiving letters shaped how he treated the work of art as an agent for communication.

In the early modern period, before the establishment of a reliable postal system, letters faced risks of interception and delay. During the Reformation, the printing press threatened to expose intimate exchanges and blur the line between public and private life. Exploring the complex travel patterns of sixteenth-century missives, Brisman explains how these issues of sending and receiving informed Dürer’s artistic practices. His success, she contends, was due in large part to his development of pictorial strategies—an epistolary mode of address—marked by a direct, intimate appeal to the viewer, an appeal that also acknowledged the distance and delay that defers the message before it can reach its recipient. As images, often in the form of prints, coursed through an open market, and artists lost direct control over the sale and reception of their work, Germany’s chief printmaker navigated the new terrain by creating in his images a balance between legibility and concealment, intimacy and public address.

Metaphor, a significant linguistic resource for representing events, people and their actions in conflict situations, is capable of revealing ideological positioning and inclinations of news reporters. This paper therefore examines strategic deployment of metaphors by selected Nigerian newspapers in representing refugees and their actions in the Bakassi Peninsula border conflict with a view to uncovering underlying ideologies in the representations. Using insights from Charteris-Black’s (2004) Critical Metaphor Theory and Lakoff and Johnson’s (1980) Conceptual Theory of Metaphor, the study analyses instances of conceptual metaphors in the news reports on the border conflict from two Nigerian national newspapers, namely The Punch and The Guardian , published between August 2008 and August 2009. The findings reveal that metaphors of disease, dangerous water, natural disasters and confusion are deployed to conceptualise refugees as threats, impending danger and agents of chaos and soci...

Обложка журнала рассматривается как образец мультимодального текста. Дается теоретический обзор научной литературы, посвященной изучению мультимодальности в рамках лингвистики. Приводятся определения понятия «мультимодальность». Уточняется терминология, сопоставляется употребление в современном языкознании терминов мультимодальный, поликодовый, креолизированный текст. Особое внимание уделяется особенностям журнальной обложки как самостоятельного жанра. Рассмотрены классификации типов обложек в зависимости от соотношения вербального и графического компонента. Выполнен краткий обзор подходов к изучению мультимодального текста. Обосновывается целесообразность применения к анализу материала системно-функционального и социокогнитивного подходов. Представлены результаты сопоставительного анализа журнальных обложек. Журнальная обложка рассматривается как мультимодальный текст — комплекс вербальной и визуальной составляющей. При этом вербальная составляющая может быть представлена как эксплицитно, так и имплицитно, то есть компрессированно. Показано, что механизм интерпретации смысловой нагрузки обложки может считываться реципиентом двумя способами: либо на основе комбинации вербальной и визуальной информации, либо за счет актуализациии компрессированного вербального компонента с помощью визуальной составляющей. Новизна исследования видится в демонстрации, что изображение с подразумеваемым (компрессированным) вербальным компонентом может представлять собой мультимодальный текст.

A cover of a journal is considered as a sample of multimodal text. A theoretical review of the scientific literature devoted to the study of multimodality in the framework of linguistics is given. Definitions of the concept of “multimodality” are given. The article clarifies the terminology, compares the usage of the terms multimodal, polycode, creolized text in modern linguistics. Special attention is paid to the peculiarities of a magazine cover as an independent genre. Classifications of cover types depending on the ratio of verbal and graphic components are considered. A brief review of approaches to the study of the multimodal text is made. The expediency of applying system-functional and sociocognitive approaches to the analysis of the material is substantiated. The results of the comparative analysis of magazine covers are presented. A magazine cover is considered as a multimodal text, i.e. a complex of verbal and visual components. In this case, the verbal component can be represented both explicitly and implicitly, that is, compressed. It is shown that the mechanism of interpretation of the semantic load of a cover can be read by the recipient in two ways: either on the basis of a combination of verbal and visual information or due to the actualization of the compressed verbal component with the help of the visual component​. The novelty of the study is seen in the demonstration that an image with an implied (compressed) verbal component can be a multimodal text.

Online availability of information creates new ways of communication. This provides a variety of ways for users to interact, though chat, messaging email, video, voice chat, file sharing, blogging and discussing groups. The social networking sites have become one of the dominant cultural phenomena in this digital age. It enables us to communicate anywhere in this world and to anyone who shares interests and activities across political, social, economic and geographical borders. This paper analysed how new media specially social networking sites change the ways of communication, allows the public to critique and discuss fearlessly social and political issues and share the news information as well as message and leading to active participation in social movements and social revolutions.

India has a glorious tradition of print media since pre-independence times. The Indian print media had a significant role to play in securing independence. After independence, various forms of media have made a great contribution in inculcating democratic values. Accurate, factual and objective reporting is the key to maintaining the credibility of the print media. Indian readers are more trusted in print media than electronic and web media. With the spread of the Corona, the country's print media has faced many challenges. The print media is in a dilemma on many levels such as news gathering, advertising, distribution, finance. Some journalists have even been tested positive for COVID-19. Many media groups have slashed production costs. Newspapers showed exit doors to many employees on account Covid-19. Some newspapers announced furlough. All major newspaper groups in the country have slashed the salaries of their employees. The print media is in big financial trouble due to declining advertising income. The effects of corona on the Indian print media are studied in the present research paper.

Research concerning computer hackers generally focuses on how to stop them; far less attention is given to the texts they create. Phrack, an online hacker journal that has run almost continuously since 1985, is an important touchstone in hacker literature, widely read by both hackers and telephone and network security professionals. But beyond its instantiation as a compendium of illicit technical knowledge, Phrack was, above all, a rhetorical publication. The files in each issue of Phrack created a shared rhetorical vision concerning the place of the hacker underground within society and in relation to law enforcement officials, as well as what it means to be a hacker. This essay examines two important events in the evolution of the hacker movement through the lens of Phrack—Operation Sundevil and the arrest of Kevin Mitnick. How these events were framed in Phrack both shaped and reflected emerging shifts in hacker collective identity.

This chapter seeks to examine a phenomenon that has gone largely unexplored: the rise of digitally-born Australian literary journals since the 1990s. My intent is to demonstrate how such journals in the digital sphere also exert material influence within the literary field in very specific ways. In particular, I will argue that the journals I have chosen to examine display the five key traits—also common among other digitally-born Australian literary journals—which clarify the way that such publications shape the broader literary field: 1) they focus on specific, high-cultural literary forms; 2) they circulate among established literary networks of producer-consumers; 3) they increase the social capital of their editors; 4) they either problematise or reinforce the boundaries of national literary discourse; and 5) they either seek to include writers who are typically excluded by more mainstream literary discourse, or else reflect the hierarchical distinctions and exclusionary practices of material literary networks.

3D printing has been admired as a cutting-edge technology, which will change manufacturing [1]. Recent advances in bioprinting technologies have enabled rapid manufacturing of medical models in many fields and areas. Recently in the field of dentistry, fused deposition modeling and Stereolithography 3D bioprinting techniques have been using in dental applications such as implants, the production of physical models for prosthodontics, orthodontics, and surgery [2,3]. This paper reviews the usage of fused deposition modeling and stereolithography 3D printing technologies and their various applications in dentistry and in maxillofacial surgery. 3D printing is transforming digital dentistry by extensively penetrating opportunities in diagnosis, treatment and education. The accel- erated research in this industry and optimism would open more doors to help revolutionize digital dentistry.

In the visual art world, illustrators have sometimes been considered less important in comparison with fine artists and graphic designers. The term ‘illustrative’ is sometimes used as a negative critique. But, possibly in part due to the growth of video games and graphic novel industries, as well as a recent swing in value towards illustration in magazines and other publications over photography, illustration is becoming a valued, popular and profitable art form that can acquire a wider market than the fine artist or graphic designer. This research is intended as a contribution to the understanding of an important modern phenomenon in advertising: illustration art in advertising as a preference over photography.

This chapter examines the contemporary Czech foodscape, especially its media, from a discursive perspective. After description of the Czech culinary press, it analyses the formation of discourse of culinary tradition in gourmet magazines Apetit, Gurmet and F.O.O.D. Traditionalism tries to renew and legitimate the national cuisine and identity after the fall of socialism and preserve them in the age of globalisation and consumerism. The renaissance of Czech gastronomy is based on searching for its pre-socialist “roots”, nostalgically referring to “golden age” of “honest” cooking. Culinary traditionalism also uses family as its medium, glorifying the grandmothers’ dishes and building ones’ culinary genealogies.

This essay presents new insights into Henry Darger’s disturbing images of violence against children and his art's treatment of mass cultural ideals of innocence and deviance. It argues that his endangered heroines develop visual conventions already present in sensationalized representations of “missing girls” and “sex deviants” in national newspapers.  It also explores how his fictional “Child Protection Society” developed from accounts of American vigilante groups like the KKK that proclaimed themselves to be protecting children (especially girls and young women) from libidinous social outsiders.  Considering the social-historical context of his sources and his unique biography, I argue that the importance of his violent works is not that they illustrate pedophilic desire, as they have previously been interpreted. Rather, they highlight important questions about the use of images of vulnerable children (especially girls) in 20th c. American society to fan fears for socially marginal or atypical figures.

Community media was not a subject of importance nor did academicians take up the matter with seriousness till 1960s. Though community media exists and function prior to that, the concept become a matter of concern with the Bolivian crisis where miners used to propagate their agenda against the government, seriously influencing the local community of the area. Since then concept of community media begins to attain recognition as an important communication strategy. In a diverse and complex society like the northeast India, the role of community media is gaining more important than ever. Owing to the geographical location, lack of infrastructure development and high illiteracy rate, mainstream media and the ICT at most of the times remain useless in many parts of the region. In such situation, community media with vernacular medium fills the void and serves the reading needs of the growing population. The paper deals on the growth of vernacular community media of different community settling in the present state of Manipur in the northeast India.

Previous studies have noted the dominance of official sources within the news process and their unique ability to shape media narratives. This research addresses the role and implications of news sources in contributing to the overwhelmingly positive portrayal of the anti-Mubarak opposition protesters within British and American newspaper coverage of the 2011 Egyptian Revolution. Furthermore, this paper will assess how the position of global political elites towards the protests in Egypt possibly opened up the editorial space within the news coverage of the revolution for the anti-Mubarak opposition movement to emerge as the dominant voice within the reporting.

Bir kimsenin bir başka kişiyi bilerek ya da isteyerek öldürmesi anlamına gelen cinayet ağır bir eylemdir. Bu suçun cezası müebbet hapis ya da idamdır. Cinayetin pek çok sebebi olmakla birlikte erkek ya da kadını bu edimi yapmaya iten temel sebep o cinayetin gerekçesidir. Cinayet işleme eğilimindeki kişi başta kendi güvenliğini düşünerek, kendisinden daha güçsüz ve zayıf olana yönelebilmektedir. İnsanın doğasında olan bu şiddet dürtüsü güçlünün güçsüzü ezmesi yönünde eğilim göstermektedir. Son yıllarda kadına yönelik şiddet olayları kadın cinayetlerine kadar dayanarak toplumsal yaşamda travmaların boyutunu daha da ağırlaştırmıştır. Yazılı ve sözlü basında yer alan bu haberler ve veriliş biçimleri insan haklarının en vazgeçilmez öğesi olan yaşam hakkının kadının elinden alınmasının özellikle toplumsal yaşamda yansımalarını açık biçimde sergilemektedir. Kadına yönelik şiddet ve öldürme olayları gerek toplumsal yaşam biçimi ve düzeninin erkek ve kadın açısından anlamını belirtmesi, gerekse her iki cinsin toplumsal cinsiyet algısının bir sonucu olarak yaşama nasıl yansıdığının göstergesidir. Kadın cinayeti haberlerinin Türkiye ve Amerika’da yani iki farklı toplumda yazılı basına yansıdığı biçimiyle değerlendirmesine yönelik olan bu çalışmada özellikle kadın cinayeti haberlerinin veriliş biçimi değerlendirilmiştir. Bu amaçla çalışmada her iki ülkenin gazetelerinde söylem çözümlemesi tekniğiyle cinsiyetçi bakış açısının izleri aranmış, bu yolla iki ülke karşılaştırılmış ve medyada kadın sorununa çözümler sunulmaya gayret edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda her iki ülkeden iki benzer olay ve e-gazete seçilip çözümlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu çözümlemede e-gazetelerin seçimi gibi bu cinayetin işleniş biçimi ve haberlerinin verilişlerindeki benzerlikler dikkate alınmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Kadın; cinayet; haber; analiz; medya; toplumsal cinsiyet; medya etiği.

The aim of this thesis is to examine in detail the value that letterpress printing provides by connecting people to the craft. By looking at relevant sources from examples of contemporary letterpress work to literature surrounding the topic it sets out to determine this value.
Firstly, this study looks at the desire that exists to reconnect with letterpress as a craft in reaction to mass produced print material.
