Červená, Adéla ; Železný, Jakub (advisor) ; Suk, Pavel (referee)
- version - Adéla Červená This bachelor thesis focuses on the ground-breaking importance of the Operace Neptun in the perception of the media impact of Czechoslovak Television (ČST) by the communist regimes. Until this moment, this Operation is the only known case of the misuse of ČST before year 1968 as a tool of the contemporary propaganda and spreading of disinformation. The Czechoslovak intelligence has taken the advantage of the shooting of the show Zvědavá kamera from 1964 on the topic of the secrets of the Šumava lakes. In advance of the arrival of the publicists, they have placed boxes of allegedly Nazi documents on the bottom of the Černé jezero. The highlight of the Operation was the press conference led by the Interior Minister Lubomír Štrougal in September 1964. Would the lead actor of the Operation, Ladislav Bittman, not have emigrated, the truth would have potentially never been revealed. After the period of the Prague spring, with the rise of the normalization, the abuse of ČST as the transmitter of the current propaganda became a common practice. This work focuses on two shows of the given era - Causa Jan Masaryk and Svědectví od Seiny. The communist regime used these shows to settle the accounts with chosen representatives of the Prague spring and painted their own version of the...
