AbstractAim: The aim of the study is to analyze ten different columns written by Linda Skugge, in order to see what kind of rhetorical means she uses to get her message across. It is also to examine if, and to what extent, these means are of female nature, and to see what kind of persona Skugge uses in order to be trustworthy.Method: Rhetorical analysis of ten columns written by Linda SkuggeMain results: The study has shown that Skugge´s rhetorical strategies differ from the ones recommended in theories about female speech. Skugge writes with a lot of character and emotionally based arguments, which, according to the theories, is more of a male way of speaking. Skugge gives an impression of being strong, competitive and offensive in her character, but also reveals that her role is consciously chosen in order to receive respect and to gain power.Number of pages: 42Course: Media- and Communication studies DUniversity: Department of Information science, University of UppsalaPeriod: Spring 2005Tutor: Amelie HössjerKeywords: rhetoric, rhetorical analysis, feminist studies, persona, Linda Skugge.

A deeper understanding of these relationships gives us a clue about how media convergence can change the practice of TV- production. In this paper, a case study at Go?kväll in SVT is presented.

Studien syftar till att undersöka den ökade pressen på den personliga imagen på de sociala medieplattformarna Facebook och Instagram och studera hur stockholmare i åldrarna 20-30 uppfattar eventuella effekter av detta. Undersökningen har sin utgångspunkt i två vetenskapliga discipliner; medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap och psykologi och är baserad på fyra kvalitativa informantintervjuer och två fokusgruppintervjuer om fyra respektive fem gruppdeltagare. Datamaterialet har därefter transkriberats för att senare sammanställas med hjälp av ett kvalitativt analysschema. Tillämpad analysmetod är hermeneutisk meningstolkning som går ut på att analysera de separata delarna som skapar förutsättning för att förstå helheten. Analysschemat är därför uppdelat på fyra huvudteman: användarfrekvens, user gratifications, den personliga imagen på sociala medier samt psykologiska effekter av deltagandet på sociala medier.
