    Berja, Alice Bernadette F.; Nidoy, Michelle Gay M. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    This descriptive-comparative study aims to determine the program format of the two mainstream TV news programs here in the Philippines: TV Patrol (ABSCBN) and 24 Oras (GMA). There are two types of TV news program format, standard format and tabloid format. Both formats are guided by four elements: segment, news selection, news delivery and language. Survey was used in measuring the knowledge of Ilonggo viewers on the program format of TV Patrol and 24 Oras. The study covered 12 barangays in Iloilo City with 400 respondents. Results of the data-gathering process showed that TV Patrol is in tabloid format while 24 Oras is in standard format. News delivery is the most tabloid element of TV Patrol while Language is the most standard element of 24 Oras.

    A content analysis of 12 episodes of the radio comedy-drama Toyang Ermitanya
    Bantiquete, Theola H.; Galanza, Siena Therese M.; Gersabalino, Jeniffer G. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2008-03)
    This study “A Content Analysis of the Radio-Comedy Drama Toyang Ermitanya” aims:(1) to identify the various issues presented in the 12 episodes of the drama (Episodes 256-267, aired in July 2003); (2) to classify the issues into different categories such as political, social, economic, religious, educational and others (gender issues); (3) to determine which of the six categories are frequently raised, and; (4) to determine whether or not the drama reflects social reality. The researchers used a sell-devised descriptive code sheet in analyzing and categorizing the issues that are presented in the drama. They set six categories where each issue would fall. Percentage distribution was used to determine which among the six categories is frequently raised. They also provided actual samples of the issues under each category, quoted in the Hiligaynon language with its corresponding translation in English. Researched on the events that happened in July 2003--the time when the 12 episodes were aired over Bombo Rady Iloilo— were then related to the issues that were presented in the 12 episodes of the drama in order to determine whether or not Toyang Ermitanya reflects social reality. This study is significant for it provides an in-depth treatment of the societal issues, thus, making people aware of the prevalent issues confronting the society at the same time. Second, it serves as an important tool in analyzing the role of media in presenting various issues of the society in a manner that almost everyone can relate to. In the process, it will guide media practitioners in producing a satirical program that will catch the interest, and at the same time, meet the need of the society in terms of information and entertainment. The researchers identified 163 issues that were raised in the 12 episodes of the drama Toyang Ermitanya. Results of the study show that social issues are frequently raised in the drama. It is followed by political, economic, religious, others (gender issues), and finally, educational which got a zero percentage. Using the Cone-effect theory, the study shows that Radio Comedy-Drama Toyang Ermitanya reflects social reality. The study would have been better if the researchers interviewed the producer/ scriptwriter of Toyang Ermitanya. For future researchers, the researchers recommend that research on another radio drama be done to further validate this study’s claim that radio dramas are not only for entertainment, but, are also a good source of information and reflect social realities.

    The classification and regulation of AM Radio programs
    Balagosa, Sheena Marie K. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-04)
    The study "The Classification and Regulation of AM Radio Programs" provides us the reasons why there is a need to classify and reinforce regulation on AM radio programs based on the MTRCB guidelines, the KBP Code, and the opinion of Ilonggo radio listeners and broadcast practitioners. The study covered 12 barangays with 400 respondents and eight broadcast practitioners from four AM radio stations in Iloilo City. From the results of the study, we have found out that radio stations created program innovations that affected the listeners. There is a need to put classification in order to separate sensitive topics that are not suitable for all listeners, to protect children by knowing which programs they can listen to, to avoid hearing double meaning words, extremely violent stories and sensitive topics about sex. There is a need to reinforce regulation because of the failure to adhere to broadcast standards of some radio programs, KBP's leniency in the implementation of its rules and regulation and the effectiveness of self-regulation. Thus, we have the determined that there is a need to put classification and to reinforce regulation in AM radio programs to protect the moral values of Filipino radio listeners.

    The study seeks to know the common level of consciousness of feminism in selected films among college students. It anchors on Muzafer Sherifs Social Judgment Theory that sets responses to stimuli along the latitudes of acceptance, non-commitment and rejection. Parallel to this theory, consciousness of feminism is measured as high level, which means the audiences accept and identify the concept of feminism being present in the films included in this study; medium level, which means the audiences find the concept of feminism objectionable in the films included in this study; and low level, which represents that audience does not accept and identify the concept of feminism being present in the films included in this study. The study employs a survey questionnaire given to 353 students of the University of the Philippines Visayas. Results show that over 73% of the respondents have high consciousness level. It is concluded in this study that majority of the students in UP Visayas are highly conscious of feminism in feminist-themed films; are conscious of the concept of feminism or can easily identify it in feminist-themed movies.

This study was conducted during the first semester of the school year 2004-2005. Respondents chosen for this study were 140 graduates of BABC from school years 2001-2004. However, only 39 were able to reply. The locale of the study includes various places in the Philippines, mostly Metro Manila, Iloilo City, and Iloilo Province. The research design used in this study is descriptive. Results of the study show that majority of BABC graduates do not end up in the media. Those who were able to get into broadcast-related jobs do not plan to stay for good in their present jobs. On the other hand, those who did not get into broadcast-related jobs plan to pursue these kinds of jobs. The study also shows that most BABC graduates within the said school years are moderately satisfied with their present jobs.

    A critical analysis of the movie "Bikini Open"
    Aportadera, Ela Vanessa; Azarcon, Rudylyne; Baldeviso, Donna Marie; Novelo, Fiona; Punsalan, Jona Marie (Division Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2005-10-21)
    This study entitled "A Critical Analysis of the Movie Bikini Open," will find out whether the said film affirms the real state of Philippine Mass Media. The study aims to identify the issues on Phi lippine media depicted in the movie, point out the issues confronting media in the Philippine society, determine the similarities and differences of the issues depicted in the movie with the current state of Philippine media and society, analyze the issues reflected in the movie in the context of Philippine media and society, and point out the implications of the movie on the Philippine media and society. Twelve professionals from Iloilo City coming from the academe, television, radio, and print media and the film's director served as respondents of the study. The study used Critical Theories of Communication in analyzing the film in the context of Philippine media and society. Results of the study indicate that Philippine media tends to serve the interest of the dominating class such as advertisers and media owners who exercise power over those below them intheir pursuit of economic interests. Philippine mass media is leaning towards the practice wherein corporate responsibility takes over social responsibility. With competition, the media resorted to sensationalism and exploitation. Moreover, media content is used as a commodity in order to sell. Finally Philippine media serves as a potent force in shaping the way of life of the people. Although such ills in the media occur, this does not generally speak for the entire Philippine mass media. Thus, this study concluded that the film "Bikini Open" partly affirmed the state of Philippine media in reality.

    This study is a content analysis on the physical characterization of aswang in Filipino films. This study determined how the Filipino films characterized aswang. Descriptive research design was used in analyzing and tallying the physical characteristics of aswang in the Filipino concept and in the eight Filipino films. Interviews with film directors were also utilized for additional support of this study. The concept of aswang emerged because of the demonization of women especially the babaylans, by the Spanish priests in the history of the Philippines. It was found out that in both Filipino concept and Filipino films, there were differences on the physical characterization of aswang. Films used the concept of aswang to perform the role of media which is to entertain the audience.

    Abad, Catherine Grace; Francisco, Franz C.; Gador, Fevie Anne (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2010-04)
    Shock Talk Radio Programs are gaining multitudes of listeners within Iloilo. Mama Monyeka and Talk to Papa ,two of the most popular Shock Talk-Radio programs, are the subject of the research. In this study the researchers assessed the different perceptions and gratification sought and obtained by Ilonggo listeners with different educational orientation; Out-of-School Youth, High school, and College. The researchers used descriptive research design and survey questionnaires to gather information. Result showed the OSY are the ones with the most positive perception towards Shock Talk-radio programs, followed by the High School Group and the and lastly the College group. Also the gratification that is mainly sought is entertainment needs among the three groups. Albeit needs such as information, personal identify and social interaction were also identified as needs that the audience seek to satisfy. For gratifications obtained it was shown that only 5% among the total number of the respondent claimed that needs outside entertainment have been met by these programs. The need which was satisfied the most by these programs again is the entertainment need. Using the Theory of Uses and Gratifications it was found out that the audiences' physical environment (in here educational orientation) affects the perception towards a media content (Shock Talk - radio programs) and influences his/her reasons for consumption (gratification sought).Finally media content such as Shock Talk- radio programs answer the audience' needs.
