    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.

    Signification of Filipino culture in the film RPG Metanoia
    Asuncion, April Angeli B.; Zante, Sheena Angelique D.; Piñano, Von Janatius (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2014-04)
    This study identifies and describes the different significations of Filipino Culture in the 3D animated film RPG Metanoia. It is supported by Semiotics’ basic claim that media texts are made up of signs, which are composed of two elements: the signifier and the signified. The signifier is the physical representation of a sign that is being perceived by the senses, while the signified are the meanings that are being associated with the sign. The signifiers in this study are the different physical representations of the different Components of Culture according to Panopio et al. (1978), namely, Norms, Ideas and Material Culture. Data were gathered through observation and were further analyzed using content analysis. An interview with the creators of the film was also conducted. Results show that the different significations of Filipino Culture in the film are Norms like Barkada System and Kwentuhan, Ideas which include the value of Pagkamasayahin and Belief in the Supernatural, and Material Culture which is signified by Filipino Clothing.
