Medial portrayal of Mikuláš Minář
Bátor, Viktorie ; Hodboď, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Groman, Martin (referee)
The topic of this thesis is the presentation of the media image of Mikuláš Minář in two periods. The first period is during demonstrations on Letenská plain in June and November 2019. The second period is Mikuláš Minář's beginning in politics with his new political party Lidé PRO in 2021. This work has three goals: to present the media image of Mikuláš Minář in the first and second periods and then compare how these images differ and in what ways. To answer these questions, I chose a quantitative content analysis of selected media contents. The specific form of this method and the method of sample selection is described in the "Methodology" section. At the beginning of the diploma thesis, I focused on theory. In this section, the concept of "mass media" is described. This is followed by a section that focuses on the influence of the mass media and specifically the presentation of the media image as a theoretical concept.

Res publica - res christiana? Biblical motivation and the Czech Brethren's perspective of christian political engagement
Roll, Benjamin ; Gallus, Petr (advisor) ; Morée, Pieter Cornelis Adrianus (referee)
This diploma thesis entitled Res publica - res christiana? Biblical motivation and the Czech Brethren's perspective of christian political engagement deals with possible theological basis for Christian political engagement. The first chapter maps the biblical principles and passages inspiring the work of Christians in today's society. In the second chapter, the author deals with the life and work of the most important czech protestant theologian of the 20th century J. L. Hromádka. On specific examples of his public activities and theological statements, the author shows the key ideas and experiences that form the approach to this issue still present in the Evangelical Church of Czech Brethren. Both of these chapters form the basic basis for the author's final chapter, which outlines his own theological perspective. He put this perspective in the context of personal experience with political activism in defense of liberal democracy in the Czech Republic.

Sehnalová, Anna ; Tuček, Milan (advisor) ; Dvořák, Tomáš (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to analyze the influence of media ownership on media depiction of anti-government protests in 2019 organized by a civic organization Milion Chvilek (Million Moments for Democracy) in daily newspapers Lidové noviny and Hospodářské noviny through a comparative content analysis. Lidové noviny is a part of MAFRA media group owned by current Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš with his ownership share placed in a trust managed by his wife and other close associates. Daily newsprint and other publications in this media group found themselves in a situation where they had to report about protests focused on their de facto owner. A public debate centered around Andrej Babiš's possible conflict of interest has been ongoing since his entry into politics. Babiš's strong position in the media industry is one of the debate's focal points. According to his critics, this position could enable him to manipulate public mood which would provide him with an unfair advantage in the political arena. On a selected sample of articles about 2019 protests published in the above-mentioned newspapers, this media analysis strives to unveil to what extent the coverage, tone and space for commentaries from politicians and other public actors in Lidové noviny differ from Hospodářské noviny, which is deemed most...
