    Bertuldes, Relly; Montalvo, Johna Raf; Silvederio, Julie Ann Mae (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2014-04)
    The popularity of Korean popular (Kpop) music among the Ilonggo fans aged 15-24 years is the main focus of this research, a local extension to what was nationally probed by Sarah Kristine M. Alanzalon in 2011.An online survey among 196 Ilonggo Kpop fans, and focus interviews to fifteen (15) Ilonggo Kpop fans of the Korean groups Girls' Generation, Super Junior, Shinee, Bigbang and EXO. The researchers determined the variables of "consumption of Kpop content, cultural offerings present in Kpop content, and. needs of the fans satisfied by Kpop content" (Alanzalon , 2011). It was found out that the Ilonggo respondents are highly exposed to Korean popular music, consumed these media texts through various media channels, predominantly the Internet. Among the various cultural offerings, the research found out that the visual aspect has the most impact among Ilonggo fans and choreography is its most appealing facet. Aside from surveillance, identification and interaction; entertainment was discovered to be the most gratified need of Ilonggo Kpop fans. Despite the apparent language differences, it was ascertained that it is not a barrier to fans' consumption but rather paves way to languageacquisition. Particular factors were hereby uncovered: increasing accessibility of the Internet; entertainment, choreography in particular; language acquisition and; new knowledge acquirement. These factors found in media of international source, such as the phenomenal Kpop Music TV (MTV), can be a tool to help the local media enhance MTV productions, leading to increased consumption among the Ilonggo MTV viewers.

    The practice of responsible journalism in the newscasting format of TV Patrol Panay
    Bangud, Colen D.; Villacastin, Gretchen C.; Villanuvea, Froilene C. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2014-03)
    It is often a battle between public service and public interest that calls on the core standard of responsible journalism. TV Patrol Panay is a tabloid newscast format, a form of television programming that has a strong leaning towards sensationalizing news. This research, however, seeks to find a systematic pattern as to whether a tabloid news program, such as TV Patrol Panay, does practice responsible journalism, despite the common presumption about tabloid practices. A systematic quantitative content analysis was used to scrutinize the practice of responsible journalism in the tabloid newscasting of TV Patrol Panay. In the endeavour to measure the concentration of responsible journalism practice in TV Patrol Panay's tabloid newscasting, a quantitative content analysis was applied in the calculation of the news program’s violations against the Journalist's Code of Ethics. The same procedure was applied to the calculation of the news program's tendencies towards tabloid practices. The results were then given percentual readings and were qualitatively analyzed and discussed. Results reveal that TV Patrol Panay practices responsible journalism despite its tabloid news format. Nonetheless, its news program contains negative aspects of tabloid and follows the descriptive format of tabloid. TV Patrol Panay in tabloid newscasting format practices responsible journalism. Its news program contains negative aspects of tabloid and follows the descriptive format of tabloid. It can hereby be deduced that although the tabloid news program is associated with the turning down of high standards of journalism (Alotaibi, 2013), the results showed that not all news programs that are tabloid in format do not and refuse to bear with the high ethical standards of television journalism.
