Commercial Communication in the Digital Age
In today’s digital age, online and mobile advertising are of growing importance, with advertising no longer bound to the traditional media industry. Although the advertising industry still has broader access to the different measures and channels, users and consumers today have more possibilities to publish, get informed or communicate – to “co-create” –, and to reach a bigger audience. There is a good chance thus that users and consumers are better informed about the objectives and persuasive tricks of the advertising industry than ever before. At the same time, advertisers can inform about products and services without the limitations of time and place faced by traditional mass media. But will there really be a time when advertisers and consumers have equal power, or does tracking users online and offline lead to a situation where advertisers have more information about the consumers than ever before? The volume discusses these questions and related issues.
Explorations in Critical Studies of Advertising
This volume provides a thoughtful and wide-ranging exploration of approaches to the critical study of advertising. Current and impending practices of advertising have in many ways exceeded the grasp of traditional modes of critique, due at least in part to their being formulated in very different historical conditions. To begin to address this lag, this edited collection explores through critical discussion and application a variety of critical approaches to advertising. Authors address a variety of concrete examples in their chapters, drawing on existing research while presenting new findings where relevant. In order to maintain the relevance of this collection past this particular historical moment, however, chapters do not simply report on empirical work, but develop a theoretical argument.
The Institutions Changing Journalism
Bringing together original contributions from a worldwide group of scholars, this book critically explores the changing role and influence of institutions in the production of news. Drawing from a diverse set of disciplinary and theoretical backgrounds, research paradigms and perspectives, and methodologies, each chapter explores different institutions currently impacting journalism, including government bodies, businesses, technological platforms, and civic organisations. Together they outline how cracks in the autonomy of the journalism industry have allowed for other types of organizations to exert influence over the manner in which journalism is produced, funded, experienced and even conceptualized. Ultimately, this collective work argues for increased research on the impact of outside influences on journalism, while providing a roadmap for future research within journalism studies. The Institutions Changing Journalism is an invaluable contribution to the field of journalism, media, and communication studies, and will be of interest to scholars and practitioners alike who want to stay up to date with fundamental institutional changes facing in the industry.

Strategien erfolgreicher TV-Marken
Warum schalten wir das ZDF und nicht ProSieben ein? Warum baut die ABC in den USA ihre Kommunikation rund um Serien wie Desperate Housewives auf, während die BBC in Großbritannien den Sender als Marke in den Mittelpunkt stellt? Wie gelingt es spanischen Sendern, das Internet und Social Media Plattformen so gut zu integrieren? Diesen und anderen Fragen geht das vorliegende Buch nach, indem zwölf Fernsehsender aus den USA, Großbritannien, Spanien und Deutschland untersucht werden. Ausgehend von einer strategischen Markenanalyse mit ihren Werten, ihrer Persönlichkeit, wird der Blick auf die Umsetzung dieser Markenversprechen in der Programm- und Kommunikationspolitik gelegt.
