Lukšů, David ; Köpplová, Barbara (advisor) ; Waic, Marek (referee) ; Sekot, Aleš (referee)
This dissertation is the very first scholarly text to bring a wider perspective on the genesis of Czech sport journalism, starting with its beginnings in the latter half of the 1800's and extending to the year of 1918, when this profession became an independent branch of the newspaper business. Given the paucity of original literature, the present work is based primarily on the study of period newspapers and archival materials, employing mainly the direct and the indirect methods of historiography. The main purpose of it was to describe the formation of the discipline of sport journalism in the broader context of the Czech society, sports and media, rather than regarding it as an independent, isolated process. The constituent parts of this dissertation, which renders the dawn of Czech sport journalism, include the most important titles of the day as well as the key personalities in the publishing and journalism of the period, the issue of sport reportage within the established political press, and also the genesis of the professions of sport journalist and sport photographer. The chapters that place the main theme within a wider historical context compare the brief description of the evolution of sport journalism in the Czech lands to the origins of sport journalism in other countries (Great Britain, USA,...

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE APPROACH TOWARDS THE OLYMPIC VICTORIES OF E. ZÁTOPEK AND V. CASLAVSKA IN THE CONTEMPORARY PRESS
Velikovská, Tereza ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Trunečková, Ludmila (referee)
This bachelor thesis Comparative analysis of the approach towards the Olympic victories of Emil Zátopek and Věra Čáslavská in the contemporary press focuses on the comparison of different ways the press informed about the Olympic victories of two successful Czech athletes, Emil Zátopek and Věra Čáslavská, using analysis and comparison in articles of four contemporary daily newspapers regarding their victories and Olympic games in general. Using these articles, the goal of the thesis is to prove that Olympic victories of Emil Zátopek were misused by the communist regime as a tool for propaganda, influencing the quality and objectivity of sports news. In 1960s, at a time when the regime strictness loosened, the hypothesis concludes that informing about the victories of Věra Čáslavská was significantly less influenced by the propaganda. The observed period starts two weeks ahead of the start of the Olympics and ends one month after its end. The thesis analyses articles in Rudé právo, Mladá fronta and Svobodné slovo. In Věra Čáslavská's case, Československý sport is also included. The analysis is focused mainly on the actual content, mentioning also some of the published photographs.

The Hero of Totalitarian Media: The Comparative Analysis of Emil Zátopek's Olympic Victories (1948, 1952)
Dušek, Petr ; Bednařík, Petr (advisor) ; Kraus, Jiří (referee)
Rigorous thesis "The Hero of Totalitarian Media: The Comparative Analysis of Emil Zátopek's Olympic Victories (1948, 1952)" deals with propaganda in the sports journalism. Its aim is to evaluate how the Czechoslovak press reported about successes of one of the best domestic athlet Emil Zatopek at the Olympic Games in London and Helsinki. I defined a hypothesis, based on specialized literature and observation, that journalists exploited Zatopek's triumphs for propagandistic reasons, and presented the successful athlet as a socialist hero. I verified this hypothesis by means of quantitative content analysis of the journals Rude pravo and Lidova demokracie. I defined two secondary hypothesis as well: The news coverage of the Olympic Games in 1952 was more propagandistically damaged than the Olympic Games in 1948, and the news coverage by Rude pravo of both Olympic Games was more propagandistically damaged than by Lidova demokracie. In the analysis I measure the propagandistic damage of the articles, the photos and the representations of Emil Zatopek. The whole research has a deep theoretical background, which includes a definition of propaganda, an outline of the cultural policy 1948-1952, and a definition of the "hero" concept based on different conceptions from both sides of the Iron Curtain.
