Citizens and journalists in the European Union: discovery or ignorance

Author(s): Gilles Rouet / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Media and journalists have an important responsibility in the construction of our political Europe. Between the quest for a European public space that is impossible to build, a transnationalization, or even a Europeanization, that is difficult to explain within the national frameworks of the media, a “duty” of information centered on a Europe seen from Brussels, and impoverished trust of the citizens towards the media, journalists have an obvious educational mission: to incite to discovery to avoid the withdrawal into ignorance.

The use of Social Media as a news source: trends in the evolving skillset of journalists. Comparative Global Survey Results 2015 vs 2021

Author(s): Nikolai Kolev / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Media literacy is becoming an increasingly worrying problem in modern societies.2021 was declared as a year of information bankruptcy by Richard Edelman‘s annual Barometer of Confidence survey. Not everything in this perspective is blаck, as this is the year in which it is high time to begin the process of restoring trust in societies. The media must play a key role, as an even stricter arbiter of the truth. The audience is expected to begin to demonstrate higher media literacy and the ability to make choices based on objective information rather than fear, external pressure, or conspiracy theories. At the same time, journalists need to develop new skills and tactics to defend long-standing practices of gaining public trust – namely, by adapting the foundations of journalistic theory, standards, and good practices to the needs of the digital environment.

Author(s): Halliki Harro-Loit / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Reapprisig the debate on media-related competencies in Bulgaria

Author(s): Lilia Raycheva / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Nowadays media are among the main factors of the deliberative democracy, which should ensure fair and reasonable debate among citizens. Traditional and modern internet-based media affect citizens’ daily lives, politics, and society. Although social media allow the public to express their opinions, share content, and communicate in a personalized way, often they are open to manipulation and thus they hamper the public debates on substantial civic issues. The concept of media literacy addresses the potential of contemporary societies for their resilience to the negative effects of such phenomena as diminishing public trust and severely polarized politics. The text presents three cases in Bulgaria, based on the indicators of media freedom, education, and trust in the institutions outlined by the Media Literacy Index: social protests (2013-2020), the COVID-19 epidemic, and the parliamentary election campaigns on Facebook (April 04; July 11 and November 14, 2021).

How to find evidence concerning media literacy: methodological considerations

Author(s): Ragne Kõuts-Klemm / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Media and information literacy (MIL) is a complex phenomenon. It needs careful design of the measurement instruments. The Media Literacy Index by the Open Society Institute in Sofia has made great attempts to build such an instrument. Improvement is still possible. The reading and writing skills of adult populations (PIAAC study) can be taken into account too, the level of digital skills (DESI) and the healthy skepticism towards media can be seen as the next cornerstones to build an instrument that comprises individual and structural level variables in the analysis.

Theoretical concept of media related competencies

Author(s): Slavomír Gálik,Norbert Vrabec / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This paper aims to reflect the concept of „media-related competencies” with a particular focus on „media users”. Based on secondary empirical research data analysis, we developed the conceptual model based on a broad spectrum of individual, social, and institutional domains. We discuss the potential of the conceptual variables based on their possibilities and risks for media communication, especially for deliberative communication. The theoretical study approach is focused on the connection between the medium and the user and takes a holistic and anthropological approach. This connection is anchored in social practice while also including individual sets of competencies adopted in media use and strengthened through lifelong learning. Media user competencies are a highly contextualized subject that encompasses interpretation, the formation of shared meanings, and the capacity to access, analyze, evaluate, and generate communications in several circumstances.

Дигиталните по рождение в преживяване на социалните деструкции

Author(s): Atanas Lozanov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Civilization is at the pinnacle of a delightful global transformation, but infoxification1 unfortunately also causes errors in the system. At least three generations of Digital Natives have been born since the beginning of the Digital age. They differ in the threshold of anxiety about their existence, importance, and role in the new communication and information environment. The uncertainty in their own identity, originality of experience, and the meaning of self-conscious access to Knowledge among Digital Natives 3.0 catalyze some social anomalies and pose risks for the future. The Holographic perception replaces the generation of emotional memory, virtuality encourages mimicry, and remix culture erases the last traces of the authentic historicity of events, circumstances, and processes. The red line between intuitive mastery of digital technologies and the risk of dangerous control delusions is not clear either.

Достоверност на информацията в новинарския текст

Author(s): Andreana Eftimova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The research of reliability can be performed through two approaches: (1) monitoring the content of the information or (2) assessing the addressee’s attitude to certain characteristics of the text. The second approach was demonstrated by consulting a group of media audiences. The results show that several deviations from grammatical, spelling, and orthographic text characteristics play an important role in determining the problematic authenticity and unreliability of the media text. The influence is usually indirect: non-normative linguistic manifestations reduce the credibility of the issue and the author of the text, and as a consequence, reduce confidence in the veracity of news content.

За компонента менте-/-менте в българския журналистически медиен дискурс (когнитивно-комуникативен похват)

Author(s): Natalia Długosz / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

In the present article, the ways of functioning of compound structures with the component менте-/-менте in Bulgarian journalistic texts are described. In the media language, this component is found in several semantic profiles, which are mentioned here and which have not been included in any of the lexicographic registers of the Bulgarian language thus far. The compound structures with the component менте-/-менте cease to function as nominal phrases and become more similar to compound words, based on nominal phrases. This is also how these constructions are perceived by conceptualizers. Just in the process of conceptualization, the overall character of these compound structures is revealed. The analysis of the linguistic material is conducted with the use of an integrated cognitive and communicative methodology. Derivatives are analyzed in the context of actual language use.

Правописни затруднения при нови думи в медийни текстове

Author(s): Iliyana Kuneva / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The paper discusses cases of difficult adaptation of words from foreign languages to the spelling rules in Bulgarian. For example, the specific financial terms call option and put option are used in Bulgarian by transcription of the first word, but they are rarely written according to the spelling rules as a one word: колопция and путопция, as these variants are uninformative. The pursuit of transparency of meaning leads to graphic variations, which seek to make the two components more clearly distinguishable, most often preferring the separate writing кол опция. Attempts to avoid graphic merging of the two components into one word are the reason for spelling fluctuations, which would be a problem for codifying the spelling of these word types in the future.
