    Cabualan, Riza Mae; Lamis, Jira Ela Margarette P.; Medina, Inna Erika E. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-05)
    Television political advertisement is the primary means of modern political campaign to communicate with their potential voters. Hence, modern political advertisements are driven with marketing strategies that made a major impact on the outcome of individual election. But scholars find it difficult to understand the effect and effectiveness of these communications and at the same time the persuasive tool being used. This study aims to answer what are the most prominent and the least framing categories used in presidential, vice presidential and senatorial candidates in 2016 television political campaign per position, and when taken as a whole, their attributed significance and implications in the Philippine Political System. It analyzed a total of 21 political campaign ads using the four categories: Emotion, Persuasion, Factual claims and Cinematic style. The study utilized the framing theory under the Agenda Setting by Maxwell McCombs and Donald. Moreover, the study found out that the most prominent category was Emotion. While the least framing category recorded was the category of Factual claims. To further analyze the result, the researchers delve into the Filipino psyche.

    Text and context of the songs of Gloc9 (2003-2012)
    Alorro, Mary Joanne F.; Sevillano, Kristine Charisse B. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    This descriptive study was conducted to ascertain the text and context of the songs of Gloc9 from 2003-2012. Forty (40) songs with societal issues were determined, classified to which presidential term (Arroyo's or Aquino's) they were released and analyzed if they reflect the real Philippine setting at the given period. The results showed that many of the songs of Gloc9 did not exactly reflect the real-life setting of Filipinos under the two presidential eras they belonged thus as a medium, the songs created a Constructed Mediated Reality. However, songs that mentioned issues such as poverty, unemployment, abuse of power and drug abuse were reflective of period they were written. Nevertheless, rap song is a good medium not only for entertainment but also for information. It is one of the most effective medium to bring awareness to the public by presenting relevant societal issues in a rap music format. To further improve this study, future researchers should do a triangulated research method.
