PRAVDA: A PROPAGANDA SHEET IN DISGUISE OF NEWSPAPER?

Much as not accepted legally as a part of the political system, the media, Fourth Estate, is an industry that exerts an indirect still huge effect on society. The most usually perceived piece of the fourth domain is the news media or the press. Pravda, the winner of the 1985 Evening Standard Best Play Award, is a satirical play by David Hare and Howard Brenton which explores this issue and shows what the genuine role of journalism must be in society. Our study deals with the mid-1980s daily newspaper industry in Britain, specifically the ones owned by the Australian media and press baron Rupert Murdoch, and why so many English newspapers choose to behave as if they were propaganda sheets in disguise of newspapers.

Pravda: Gazete Kisvesi Altında Bir Propaganda Aracı mı?

Yasal olarak siyasal sistemin bir parçası olarak kabul edilmese de, Dördüncü Güç olan Medya, dolaylı da olsa toplum üzerinde büyük bir yönlendirme gücüne sahip bir endüstridir. Medyanın en sık karşımıza çıkan şekli ise haber medyası veya basındır. 1985 Evening Standard Best Play Ödülü'nü kazanan Pravda, David Hare ve Howard Brenton'un bu konuyu araştıran ve gazeteciliğin gerçek rolünün toplumda ne olması gerektiğini gösteren hiciv dolu bir oyundur. Bu çalışmamız, 1980'lerin ortalarında İngiliz basınının ve özellikle de Avustralyalı medya ve basın baronu Rupert Murdoch'un sahip olduğu günlük gazetelerin gazete kisvesi altında neden ve nasıl propaganda aracı olarak kullanıldıklarını ele alıyor.
