The Power of Political Style: Comparing Populist Media, From Fox News to The Young Turks, From Cable to YouTube, From Right to Left’
This research seminar offers insights into why Fox News—conservative America’s number one news source—has been commercially successful and politically effective. Where existing explanations of Fox's appeal have stressed the network's conservative editorial slant, Dr. Reece Peck sheds light on the importance of its style as a generative mode of ideology. In addition to tracing Fox’s historical ascendancy, this talk compares the conservative cable giant with the progressive YouTube-based network the Young Turks (TYT). TYT stands as one of YouTube’s longest-running and most successful “news and politics” channels on the platform. This talk stresses the importance of style as an analytical category for studying modern news branding and political movements and argues that there is no inherent connection between media populism and political conservatism — even though today, thanks to US conservative media, many conflate the two.
Personal biography Reece Peckhttps://reecepeck.com/ is an Associate Professor teaching at the CUNY Graduate Center and is the author of Fox Populism: Branding Conservatism as Working Classhttps://www.cambridge.org/core/books/fox-populism/fox-populism/7B808F481B5EE1B8CFB892A4B078AB30 (Cambridge, 2019). His research uses concepts and methods from sociology, political science, and media studies to examine populist rhetorical styles, partisan news, and tabloid media. In addition to providing commentary for outlets such as the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Vice TV, Peck was among a select group of media scholars asked to provide written testimony to the Congressional Investigatory Committee on the January 6 Capitol riot.
Hello NUSE and ECHO members,
Thanks to all those who attended the Reece Peck seminar. Based on my own experience, and hearing some of your comments after, it was a great success!
Now, an important request: could you please take a brief second in your busy schedule to fill out this small form: https://forms.office.com/r/6Ci8PSY0Vg
The evaluation of the seminar is a necessary part for receiving the funding for the event, and it will take only a couple of minutes. It allows us to keep such events going with catering and some drinks after.
When the form asks for the ‘title activity’ simply copy-paste the following: Research Seminar on The Power of Political Style: Comparing Populist Media, From Fox News to The Young Turks, From Cable to YouTube, From Right to Left
Again, thank you for your participation and I hope we’ll have another seminar soon!
