The firm RTL • RTL story from the 1930s to rtl.fr Radio Tele Luxembourg, a radio network from Luxembourg, was created in 1931. At the beginning, the radio transmitter was located at the Grand-Duché of Luxembourg, in the city of Junglinster. It was the only private French speaking radio that people could hear in Northern Europe, and more particularly in Belgium and France.

...The First Fireside Chat America had not seen much prosperity until the 1920s. Ever since the beginning of industrialization, taking place at the end of the nineteenth century, the economy had been in good shape. Life seemed great for many American citizens, until the “Roaring 20’s” started coming to an end. America entered into the Great Depression and this came as a shock to many. This led to a series of hard times for Americans. The nation quickly became desperate and close to the edge of panic throughout the years of the Depression. Banks, in particular started to fail at alarming rates in the early 30s. By March of 1933, the collapse of the nations financial system had, arguably, become the nations biggest issue. America had, in a sense,...

...Study drugs in the USA How much pressure is too much pressure? Family, friends, social events, hobbies, a job and outstanding grades – how much is too much for the average teenager? Nevertheless, does the enormous pressure justify the use of ‘’smart pills’’? What about ethics and standards? To the head of the class, but at what price? The non-fiction text ‘’Do ‘study’ Drugs’ Breed a Nation of Winners or – Cheaters?’’ written by David Sack and published in 2012 shows a great example of this increasing issue. That guides me to the genre and sender of the text, which is a non-fiction article written by David Sack. The article was published on Huffington Post website on July 19, 2012. The article is probably intended for young people/students to read, to show them the many consequences of ‘’study drugs/smart pills’’. The article is relevant due to the lack of knowledge on the topic ‘’study drugs’’, which is teenage students consuming prescription drugs to gain higher grades in school. The topic is conveyed negatively because it mostly focuses on the consequences instead of the good things. That leads me to the structure of the non-fiction text. In the beginning of the article, the author describes the current situation in USA by writing: ‘’ Is this obsession with achievement equipping our children for real life? Or are they simply getting the message that it’s no longer about how they play the game, but about winning at all costs? ‘’. Sack then explains the term ‘’study drugs’’/‘’smart...

...Shortly after the Second World War ended, America was swept into a period of mass hysteria now recognized as the Second Red Scare. This period of time, which occurred from 1947 and lasted until the late 1950s, was popularly known as “McCarthyism.” As the lead proponent who spoke out against communism and subversion in the United States, Senator Joseph McCarthy added fuel to the popular fear by initiating a series of accusations of government officials who were supposedly communist supporters. This “witch-hunt” that resulted from McCarthy’s reign of terror is reflected in the movie Good Night and Good Luck. Since any challenge to McCarthy’s authority would lead to suspicion and eventual attack, many didn’t speak out against McCarthy’s tactics in fear of being discredited themselves. However, this film not only captured the fear and terror that McCarthy’s accusations created, but also identified Edward R. Murrow, a journalist and host working under the Columbia Broadcasting Station, as one of the few who dared speak out against Senator McCarthy. Good Night and Good Luck, named after Murrow’s famous sign-offs that concluded his program See It Now, is a realistic presentation of the communist paranoia that enveloped America and the emergence of television as a mass media. Directed by George Clooney, Good Night and Good Luck follows Edward R. Murrow and his CBS crew in a production that addresses how the media can offer a voice that counters that of the government.

It isn’t without some irony that a channel known for angering religious, political, and conservative communities is operating in and catering to a region renowned for reacting (and sometimes overreacting) negatively to controversial content.”1 - Dana El Baltaji, Special Projects Manager, Trends magazine in Dubai, in 2008. “In many ways (MTV Arabia) is the epitome of our localization strategy.

...surpass, the heavy hitters of his day. His career seemed to be on a steady incline for almost a decade; however, did his talent and work hit a plateau? Welles was always seen as an active political figure that was not afraid to voice or project his own viewpoints in the public, but did this have a negative or lasting affect on his later career? Critics argue the best work Welles produced was before he hit thirty years old, so was this a direct result from the negative attention he attracted from media magnates, specifically William Randolph Hearst, Hollywood elite, and most importantly the United States government? Also, Welles left the country at a time when the dreaded “blacklist” was starting to funnel through Hollywood (“Orson” 17). Whether this was coincidence or intentional is debatable, but either way the ramifications may have helped account for the different direction he took with his post-Hollywood career. Did Orson’s fame draw too much attention and lead to his downfall? The Orson Welles we all know was an American writer, director, producer, and actor. He was known for his innovative productions, unique voice and personality, and was acclaimed as one of the most successful artist of the twentieth century (“Orson” 1). Welles expanded many medias, working in radio, television, film, and theatre (which is how Welles got his start). Welles made his stage debut in...
