Commercialism of journalism adheres to short-term profit, and the decrease in quality. Commercialization means the process that is deepened low quality of journalism. It is for a purpose and a means to have been transposed. The mid term of 1990's, deregulation of media and commercialism of journalism were gaining power in the developed countries. Korea has come to the similar condition which is most laws of press and broadcasting are deregulated. There is also concern to the commercialization of journalism in Korea. Four broadcasting channels (cross-ownership media) enter in media market, and a huge change is expected. It is for concern regarding commercialization of journalism not to stop to a baseless anxiety. In order to consider more deeply the problems of commercialism, I have approached instances of the art world and the developed countries. Through this, I declared the importance of ethics of journalists.

본 연구는 과학기술 대중화가 왜 중요한지에 대한 문제인식에서 시작되었다. 즉 과학기술이 발전하기 위해서는 일반국민의 이해와 참여가 있어야 가능하다. 또한 과학기술에 대한 대중적 이해가 없이는 과학기술 자체에 대한 대중적 지지를 획득하기 어렵다는 점이다. 이에따라 과학기술에 대한 일반국민의 이해를 제고시킬 수 있는 방안들을 모색해 보았다. 먼저 과학기술 선진국인 미국의 경우, 과학기술 대중화를 위한 과학언론 전문가 집단의 역할과 과학언론매체의 영향이 매우 지대하였음을 살펴보았다. 그러나 미국의 20세기 과학기술 대중화운동은 이들의 역할에 주로 의존한 나머지 본래의 과학적 사실이 담고 있는 상황을 일반대중에게 제대로 전달하지 못하는 역기능이 발생한 점도 간과할 수 없다. 아무튼 미국은 전통적으로 과학기술을 국가발전의 근간으로 여겨 과학언론매체의 개발과 함께 과학언론 전문가를 양성하여 일반대중이 과학기술이 무엇인지 이해하는데 크게 기여하였다. 이에반해 우리나라는 전문인력부족, 언론매체의 인식미흡, 대중화사업의 중복 및 유사성 등 과학기술에 대한 일반대중의 이해와 참여를 이끌어 내기에는 한계를 지니고 있다. 따라서 한국의 과학기술 대중화를 위해서는 홍보전문인 육성, 정보전달매체의 다양화, 과학대중화 사업 등이 상호 유기적이며 보완적인 관계로 발전해 나가야 할 것이다.

With a view to grasping how media commercialization is understood and discussed in the media-related academic community, this study compares and reviews other researches on the commercialization process of Korean press. Full-fledged studies have been rarely performed on the history of commercialization, but similar or related studies have been conducted intermittently: One is the commercialization theory in 1933 and the other is the commercialization theory in the late 1960s. Both of them decided Korean press had been commercialized as a strategical option in the midst of political pressure. It gives a clue leading us to understanding on why Korean press shows partisanship which is pointed as one of social maladies. Korean press acquires less economic benefits if they play in the market than if political parties they support or share the same political interest take power, so they are a commercial press as well as a partially partisan press. In this context, commercialization of Korean press is still underway, and genuine commercialization hitting the balance with politicization may have yet to begin.

This study analyzed the reports of Korean and Chinese newspapers on the foundation of AIIB from the viewpoint of public diplomacy. The results showed that Chinese newspapers reported the government's statements and opinions and played as a means of conforming to the purposes of public diplomacy. Chinese newspapers employed the media paradigm of Instrumentalism among three paradigms of public diplomacy, which was due to ownership structure of the press. In the case of Korean Newspapers, they adopted paradigms of culturalism and professionalism. However, they verged to culturalism in terms of lack of discourse struggle due to few in-depth reports of the effects of national economy of AIIB.

This study examines the crisis of trust of French journalism in the context of a global decline of media credibility. First of all, in the process of a huge social movement called the 'yellow vest' movement that started in 2018, distrust of the French journalism was expressed in an extreme form. This study examines some external factors in terms of the historical development of the French journalism and the public's long-standing 'criticism of journalism'. Specifically, this study first examines the quantitative indicators of trust of French journalism which were shown in Digital News Report published by the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. Next, it examines the historical and institutional formation process of French journalism and public distrust that emerged along with it. And specifically, the structural crisis-economic crisis, digital transformation and intensification of competition, and deterioration of quality problems etc.-of the French journalism exposed in media coverage on social movement in 2018 is review in relation with the working process or 'routine' of actual news production. In conclusion, this study asserts that the various aspects of internal rifts in French journalism system, as well as external shocks (the influence of social movements), are a key factor in explaining the recent decline of trust in French journalism.

This research defines Pope Francis's visit to Korea in August 2014 and the reactions from journalism to it as a case to show the discursive potential of mediated religion for social change. It analyzes the editorials and the columns on the Pope in five daily newspapers including the Chosunilbo, the Dong-A Ilbo, the Joongang Daily, the Hankyoreh, and the Kyunghyang Shinmun. Since the Pope receives positive evaluations for his remarks and behaviors during the visit from most of those articles, this research categorizes the values identified with the Pope and those with the "anti-Pope" into a form of binary oppositions, and interpret the meanings of the rhetorical strategies. The findings suggest that a consistent narrative is constructed by journalism regarding the harsh reality of Korea and the ways to overcome its structural problems. Based on the findings, I argue that mediated religion in this case is expected by the secular society to do its role for social change by being a provider of progressive and alternative values.

Classic cultivation theory and research has been noted for its failure to capture subtle variation in effects by genre and to consider tangible and practical dependent variables. Redressing these limitations, this study aimed at extending cultivation theory frame to incorporating fatalistic attitudes and reality television viewing, especially with the mediator of perceived realism. We first replicated the original cultivation effect by showing the significant effect of overall TV viewing. Even controlling for overall TV viewing, reality-based program use showed positive association with fatalistic beliefs; furthermore, the effect remained significant, additionally controlling for news(fact) use and drama(fiction) use. In a nutshell, the cultivation effect of reality-based TV program on fatalistic beliefs turns out quite stable even after controlling other competing genres.

뉴스 헤드라인에 제3자의 발언을 직접 인용해 전언하는 이른바 '따옴표 저널리즘'이 언론 보도의 객관주의 원칙을 해치는지는 언론학 및 뉴스 구독자에게 중요한 문제이다. 이 연구는 온라인 포털사이트를 통해 실시간 유통되는 한국어 기사의 정확성을 판별하기 위한 기계학습(Machine Learning) 모델을 제안한다. 이 연구에서 제안하는 모델은 Edit Distance와 FastText 기법을 활용해 기사 제목과 본문 내 인용구의 유사성을 측정하고, XGBoost 모델을 활용해 최종 분류한다. 아울러 이 모델을 통해 229만 건의 뉴스 헤드라인에 대해 직접 인용구가 포함된 기사가 취재원의 발언을 주관적인 윤색없이 독자들에게 전하고 있는지를 판별했다. 이뿐만 아니라 딥러닝 기반의 KoELECTRA 모델을 활용해 기사의 제목 내 인용구에 대한 감성 분석을 진행했다. 분석 결과, 윤색이 가미되지 않은 직접 인용형 기사의 비율이 지난 20년 동안 10% 이상 증가했으며, 기사 제목의 인용구에 나타나는 감정은 부정 감성이 긍정 감성의 2.8배 정도로 우세했다. 이러한 시도는 앞으로 계산사회과학 방법론과 빅데이터에 기반한 언론 보도의 평가 및 개선에 도움을 주리라 기대한다.
