...Introduction to Mass Communication – MCM 101 VU LESSON 14 EMERGENCE OF PRINT MEDIA AROUND THE WORLD As if the world was just waiting a breakthrough in the printing process, people from advance countries started exploiting the new invention to vent their feeling on both religious as well as secular matters. Next hundred years saw a change the world had perhaps not witnessed in the previous thousand years. More opinions were brought forward, the role of gatekeepers in the world of information was reduced considerably and new idea-exchange programs started getting very popular all over. Though it was not the way it appears today, the pioneer work in print as a medium to spread information was started first by irregular pamphleteering but soon assumed a very formal form of regular publications during which time tens of thousands of magazines, books, newspapers and newsletters change the landscape in urban markets across the world. A glance to early publications 1500s-Newssheets appear in Venice, Italy 1605 – Relations, France 1690-Publick Occurrences, first U.S. Newspaper 1704-John Campbell publishes the Boston News-Letter 1721-The New-England Courant, first printed in 1721, landed publisher James Franklin in jail. 1733-Peter Zenger is put in jail for New York Weekly content, but wins case against New York for seditious libel 1798-Alien and Sedition Acts forbid criticism of key government officials.

...extremities of the media vary from instilling fear into the marginalised groups of society to glorifying the systems success. In particular, Andrew Bolt's article undoubtedly slams the Labour’s attempt at scrutinising the credibility of the system. One of the nation's most influential and controversial political commentators, it is no surprise that Bolt has voiced his opinion on the topic. Immediately establishing a satirical and sardonic tone, he provides the reader with a one-sided tirade about Labor’s “embarrassing blunder” of trying to discredit the Centrelink system. He attacks Labor by reminding the reader of their previous “discredited Mediscare campaign”, and privileges the failures of Labor. In doing so, Bolt has manipulated the reader to accept his point of view by not allowing them to even entertain the idea that the system may be broken. He further continues to manipulate the reader through his use of unfavourable and emotive language. The article features words such as “exposed” and “harassed”, which are accompanied by negative connotations, thus further vilifying Labor. Furthermore, as an article that exposes the “victims”, Bolt certainly does not acknowledge nor explore the circumstances in which the supposed “victims” were placed. Instead, he chooses to insult Labor by only focusing on the fact that the bludgers are cheating the taxpayers out of hard earned cash. As a “conservative provocateur” it’s no surprise he delights in aggravating his critics. However, it is...

...MARKET INDICES IN INDIA INTRODUCTION A stock market index is created by selecting a group of stocks that are capable of representing the whole market or a specified sector or segment of the market. The change in the price s of this basket of securities is measured with reference to a base period. There is usually provision for giving proper weights to different stocks on the basis of their importance to the economy. A stock market index acts as the indicator of the performance of the overall economy or a sector of the economy.

...in India. Finance Ministry and SEBI realized the need of more efficient financial system. As a result of this NSDL and CDSL came into picture. It aims at ensuring the safety and soundness of Indian marketplaces by developing settlement solutions that increase efficiency, minimize risk and reduce costs. Our project on “Demat System in India” gave us a detailed picture of how securities are transferred electronically in the share market. In our project we had done a comparative study of the various Depository Participants in Ahmedabad on the basis of their services and charges. This study helped us in finding out what additional services other DPs provide and how the charges differ. Another aspect of our project was to get a feedback from the clients regarding the Demat services provided at Anagram Securities Ltd. By meeting the various clients we were able to find out the scope of improvement in the services provided at Anagram. It becomes increasingly important for students of management to understand the developments in the financial infrastructure that facilitates the whole financial system. We were fortunate enough to get an opportunity to do our summer training in such an area as it gave us a wide understanding of the entire demat system in our country....

...ADOLF HITLER: BIOGRAPHY AND CHARACTER “Adolf Hitler lived from April 20, 1889 to April 30, 1945—almost exactly fiftysix years. The difference between his first thirty years and the following twentysix years seems to be inexplicable. For thirty years he was an obscure failure; then almost overnight a local celebrity and eventually the man around whom the whole of world policy revolved.” (Haffner, p. 1) The biography of Adolf Hitler is unique among the great political leaders of history. But as a human being, he was always a failure; or at least strangely incomplete. As Sebastian Haffner put it: "His life lacked everything that normally lends weight, warmth and dignity to a human life: education, occupation, love and friendship, marriage, parenthood. Apart from politics his was an empty life and hence one [that] was strangely lightweight, and lightly discarded.” (Haffner, p. 4) What sort of person was Adolf Hitler? Here is one clue. In 1939 Hitler ordered the complete destruction of the Austrian village of Döllersheim. The tiny village, birthplace of his ancestors, was converted into an artillery range for the army and blasted beyond recognition by guns and mortars. Why did the leader of the Greater German Reich order the obliteration of his father's birthplace and destroy the site of his grandmother's grave? Perhaps Hitler was obsessed with the possibility that he was one quarter Jewish; or just as likely, Hitler did not want to reveal too muc...

...An Analysis of Sources of Risk in the Consumer Electronics Industry ManMohan S. Sodhi Cass Business School Seongha Lee Samsung Forthcoming, JORS (2007) ABSTRACT: The consumer electronics industry is a $ 240 billion global industry with a small number of highly competitive global players. We describe many of the risks associated with any global supply chain in this industry. As illustration, we also list steps that Samsung Electronics and its subsidiary, Samsung Electronics UK, have taken to mitigate these risks. Our description of the risks and illustration of mitigation efforts provides the backdrop to identify areas of future research. INTRODUCTION In supply chain management, there is much discussion on risks related to such aspects of supply chains as short product lifecycles, keen competition combined with cooperation, and globalization. The consumer electronics industry is the very embodiment of these aspects of supply chain management and related risks. While some of the supply- and demand-related risks are similar to such industries as the toy industry (Johnson 2001), the consumer electronics industry faces additional risks due to its vertically integrated supply chains. This article seeks to provide a starting point for understanding supply chain risk in this industry through examples from this industry as well as related ones like computers and mobile phones. To illustrate the mitigation of these risks, we list steps that Samsung Electronics and its subsidiary...
