RADIO PHONE-INS: COMPARISON OF QUESTIONING TECHNIQUES ACROSS TWO BBC CURRENT AFFAIRS PROGRAMMES
VYHLIDALOVÁ, Nikola
The aim of this thesis is to compare questioning techniques used by the broadcaster in two BBC Radio 4 phone-in debates. The question form, together with the use of specific questioning techniques, have an influence on the course of the debate; they present the focus of this study. In the thesis, I apply the method of Coversation Analysis to the examination of data transcripts. While both debates discuss current affairs, each of them addresses a different topic: a social and a political issue respectively.
Questioning Techniques in Spoken Media Discourse: Analysis of Authentic Data in Two Television Genres.
HLUŠÍ, Soňa
This paper analyses and compares questioning techniques in two different television genres. It employs the method of Conversation Analysis to identify the use and purpose of questions in media talk. Questions play a very important role in broadcast talk, and the paper looks at how they are used in interviews. It does this by examining the role of the interviewer, whose task is to create the structure of an interaction, determine the direction of conversation and obtain information, and their effect on the interviewee. The data of the two different television genres; the political interview and the talk show interview are analysed in order to compare questioning techniques and their effect on interviewees. The analysis is based on two different video recordings (one from each genre) and their transcripts.
