The development of czech sport's photojournalism from the middle of 20th century
Hejbal, Dominik ; Láb, Filip (advisor) ; Teplá, Jana (referee)
The paper deals with the development of the Czech journalistic sport photography from mid 20th century until recent time. Conditions that influenced the work of sports photographers are mapped, whether it was technical equipment, political constraints or other relevant facts. The paper mentions key events that have had importance in the Czech sports photography. The very beginnings of the Czech sports photography are described, too, to add context with the period followed. Furthermore, some noteworthy cases are mentioned, such as career change of a professional sportsman to a sport photographer. Ethically doubtful practices, once quite frequent, are followed, too. Another infrequently studied area of interest is discussed, which is the phenomenon of successful pictures of neglected events. The paper also provides the reader with a list of the foremost Czech sports photographers, a quantitative analysis of sport photos in the Rude Pravo daily (name later changed to Pravo). Main moments of change are studied from the point of view of the extent of the sport photography on the pages of Czech dailies. Since this topic has not been extensively covered by books, an important part of the paper is based on original interviews with veteran Czech sport photographers, including Stanislav Tereba, the only Czech winner...

In addition, the work consists of a case study of Tereba's success in World Press Photo.

Hejbal, Dominik ; Halada, Jan (advisor) ; Trunečka, Ondřej (referee)

The researched materials are daily prints and web articles from the seasons 2011/2012 and 2012/2013 of Sport and Mlada fronta DNES. Sport is the only one Czech sport focused daily. Mlada fronta DNES is general daily, which has the most of sport's texts. The theses are also focused on the online versions iDNES.cz and iSport.cz. The chosen period was very compelling because of causes on the Czech clubs benches. A well-known Spartan František Straka agreed to an offer by the all-time rival Slavia Prague. Jaroslav Hřebík came back to Sparta Prague to his third deal in this club. Pavel Vrba achieved the most successful season in the history of Viktoria Pilsen. Petr Uličný who holds the record of the coached matches in the separate Czech league won his first trophy just in the end of his career and has saved Sigma Olomouc in the league. Luboš Kozel promoted Dukla to the Gambrinus League after 17 years, and his team was surprisingly successful. The text uses the qualitatitve methods and decides differences between two dailies.

Prague's football clubs playing the first czech league 2011/2012 and their image in national newspapers
Hejbal, Dominik ; Halada, Jan (advisor) ; Kraus, Jiří (referee)
The paper focuses on the image of Prague First League (Gabrinus) football clubs in Czech national dailies. The season of 2011/12 is surveyed, during which there were five Prague clubs in the First League, which was an unusually high count. Traditional contenders such as AC Sparta Praha and SK Slavia Praha were included, as well as Bohemians 1905 and the newcomers FK Dukla Praha and FK Viktoria Zizkov, both of which advanced from the Second Football League. The followed dailies are Sport (the only Czech sports daily), Hospodarske noviny, Lidove noviny, Mlada fronta DNES and Pravo, four general dailies with sports supplement. By using both quantitative and qualitative methods, the paper examines which events in Prague football clubs were assigned most space. Furthermore, the way the events are addressed is examined, as well as the clubs mostly reported by individual writers - whether there is dependence between number of fans and the space assigned to particular clubs. The following chapters seek the answer to the question if Czech dailies in the effort to aim at increasing readers' interest prefer clubs with more fans. We also study whether positive or negative events are more followed, or if success or failure is emphasized.
