Hlavoňová, Kateřina ; Pavlík, Petr (advisor) ; Sloboda, Zdeněk (referee)
The comparison of ČT1 and TV Nova evening newscasts from a gender perspective Study is focused on the comparison of ČT1 (Události) and TV Nova (Televizní noviny) evening newscasts from a gender perspective. In my diploma thesis I follow some feminist studies that were done mainly in the anglo-american context - I try to verify if western theories about androcentrism in television newscast are valid in the czech context. My study is primarily based on the quantitative content analysis of the news - I am interested in aspects like gender inequality, representations of men and women (alternatively of transgender people), gender roles, gender stereotypes (reproduction or subversion) and reflection of the feminist thought by these media. The main aim of reasearch is to compare evening newscasts of leading czech public television (ČT1) and leading czech commercial television (TV Nova) - I try to find out if the commitment of public service has an influence on the gender aspects of these newscasts.

Analysis and Description of the Radio Blaník Newscast
Chraščová, Veronika ; Maršík, Josef (advisor) ; Groman, Martin (referee)
This thesis deals with the transformation of the Radio Blaník newscast. The aim was to analyse and evaluate the real newscasts broadcast by the radio station. I addressed the topic in a theoretical and historical context. Nevertheless, the analytical part is crucial in my thesis. I have examined newscasts of all three models used by Radio Blaník during its existence. At the same time, I was interested in the process of news production and the reasons why such a fundamental and unique change like a new newscast format has taken place repeatedly. I not only paid attention to technical changes, but I also took account of the radio target group and the image that the radio station attempts to present in mass media. I was interested whether or not Radio Blaník has gradually given up its positive and regional nature. In both the theoretical and analytical part, I collected information mainly from interviews with radio station managers, radio station archive, and my own experience that I have gained during my work for Radio Blaník.

Bloody Televizní noviny - reality or myth?
Kratochvíl, Michal ; Křeček, Jan (advisor) ; Vysloužilová, Kristýna (referee)
Televizní noviny, the main TV News program of TV Nova, has been perceived in the long term as the one which brings to people only negative news and stories full of blood. People often call it "Crime Chronicle", as according to a commonly acknowledged opinion, it consists only of accidents, murders, dead bodies, and violence. Nothing else. In this thesis, I will attempt to prove or refute this assumption - whether it is like that in reality or not. Therefore, an integral part of the thesis is a research which will examine what the real share of truly "bloody" news in Televizní noviny. In the next part, the bachelor thesis describes the history of TV news broadcasting in the world, in Czechoslovakia, and then also in the Czech Republic. Hence, the thesis will offer a view on the development of TV news, the content of individual news programs, and last but not least, on those who actually influence the content as such. The thesis also provides a overview of the history of TV Nova News and its position in Czech society since 1994 when TV Nova started broadcasting. The final part of the thesis is the analytical one; the results of the research are interpreted based on the theoretical part and historical background of TV Nova.

Media and Space: Influence of the Colonial Past on Cotemporary Media Coverage of France and Britain
Brádková, Hana ; Havlíček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Nováček, Aleš (referee)
This thesis examines the influence of the colonial past on contemporary media coverage of France and Britain. It focuses on selected colonies and the frequency of their references on two websites - Skynews.com and France24.fr. Thus the thesis tries to answer the question whether or not the colonial past is still a strong determinant which governs the media's priorities. Imperial history has always been very vivid in these countries, where vast colonial land was possessed. Consequently they must now deal with the impact of their incursions. A strong relationship with former colonies exists and still be seen through the media. In addition, the fact that news media still prefers those states to the information about different former colonies, proves the existence of very strong bonds after the end of decolonial processes. The thesis is divided into two main sections. The first section considers the theoretical frame of analyzed notions (e.g. the geography of communication, colonialism or postcolonialism etc.), colonial history and pursuits the basic facts from media studies.
