This post today, is about my students at MCOM 212: Introduction to Journalism at Modern Science and Arts university (MSA), Mass Communication faculty.
They amazed me with their work...
Their description for violation cases nationally and internationally in their assignment articles, showing the affected parties, and the best way to handle a situation like those was very critically analyzed.
I am just Proud of them, because I can see the future of journalism that faces now a lot of challenges with the emergence of open source news websites, 24 hrs access, and the dilemma of knowing the fake news from the truthful ones.
I can see objective and accountable future journalists in You...
Here are some of the examples from: Eyad Mohamed El Semary, Heba Aly Sherby, Clara Nader Nabil, Nadine Amr Arafa

Last Thursday and for five-days, King Salman Bin Abdel
Aziz of Saudi Arabia visited Egypt for mutual cooperation between Egypt and his
country in different fields of development. On the investment side, the CEO of Saudi
Egyptian Construction Company (SECON), Darwish Hassanin declared that about 40
percent of the projects in the New Cairo Capital like residential apartments,
commercial services, sports club and green areas will be built on 86 acres by
the second quarter of this year (Daily News, SECON CEO). And another project Riyadh
SECON will contribute is the New Assiut media city that will raise the wages of
media earners. A total of 17 agreements are signed during this bilateral deals’
visit.
On the other hand, building a new bridge between Egyptian
lands and Saudi Arabia using Tiran and Sanafir islands opened new discussions
and retrieved back the history of Sykes-Pico Agreement between Britain and
France of Israel. The Sykes-Pico Agreement was secretly signed after World War
I between Britain and French government to determine the controlled partitions
of Ottoman Empire to both powers in 1916 (Jewish Virtual Library). This two
islands were under the international control of the two powers and the Arabs.
From this point, according to Egypt Independent “official
sources reports that the Egyptian President, El-Sisi proposed that the bridge
to be named The King Salman and Sykes-Pico Bridge (Egypt Independent, bridge). “The
23 kilometer-long bridge will start at Egypt’s Red Sea Island of Tiran then to
Ras AlSheikh Hamid in Saudi Arabia via Sanafir Island on the Red Sea” (TheCairo Post). This bridge will join the two countries by road and even the two
contents Asia and Africa over water. This opens another discussion about the
changing of geographical borders that are designed before in Sykes-Pico
Agreement and by uniting the Arab countries away from the foreign control nor
the Israeli intimidations.
Analysts reached a point of the proposed bridge is more
likely touching the Israeli national affairs more than Egyptians or Saudi
Arabian, because building this bridge will push the Egyptian national security
to control the passing of Israeli ships in the Red Sea as it’s their only
shipping lane. Today’s feed from different social network websites put another explanation
for that “According to Balfour Declaration, Egypt don’t have the authority to
put their army on this passing lane,” and fortunately building this bridge will
give Egypt the right for military presence. This right will end the last item
in 1978 Camp David Accords (Hammouda, Facebook). Hammouda added that there can
be another straight line way “via Aqaba bay” to build the bridge, however
passing by Tiran Island will make the bridge not a hanging one and this will
give Egypt the right to put their security in this place to protect its vital
area of national security.
So, the issue of Egyptian ownership or sovereignty of these
two islands is solved, because many give and takes between Saudi Arabia, Egypt
and Israel - referring to Sykes-Pico 1916 Agreement, Balfour 1917
Declaration, and Camp David 1978 Accords – will be ended. And a powerful
strategic control will be given to Egypt for saving its vital area of national
security. Also the question of; the agreement of Saudi Arabia to build this
bridge is simply because their whole country is under the vital area of
Egyptian national security as located on the Egyptian territorial water. “Working will begin by the mid of next year 2013 with budget
of three Billion Dollars to build 50 kilometer bridge connecting between Aqaba
bay and Tabuk” (El-Watan). This project was entrusted to the Egyptian minister
of transportation, Gala Said, ten years ago and recommended by Major General
Sameh Seif El Yazal, the Security and strategic expert, to easy the trading
between two continents. Adding that passengers will take 20 minutes only in
this trip.
Article Title:
Evolution of News Frames during 2011 Egyptian revolution: Critical discourse
analysis of Fox's News and CNN's framing of protesters, Mubarak, and the Muslim
Brotherhood.
Journalism and Mass Communication
Quarterly
Author:
Andrea L. Guzman
Introduction
The article is a critical
discourse analysis for U.S. news organizations (CNN and Fox) framing the key
participants of Egyptian revolution in online news content. The critical
discourse (quantitative methodological approach) is analyzing how the social
power abuse is reproduced and resisted by the text and talks of the political
and social context (Dijk, 2010). The author, Guzman, studied the portrayal of
how "multiple segments" of Egyptian society - like President Hosni
Mubarak and his government, Muslim Brotherhood, and anti-government protesters
- enacted and viewed for power during the revolution. It frames the online
texts and talks, from the American journalistic ideology, of people who seek
democracy ruling including Islam and Muslims as active participants.
This study is both using
analytical discourse aligned with framing theory (Reese, 2011); media (CNN
& Fox) portrayals selects a certain aspect (Egyptian participants’ online
news content) or a reality (Egyptian revolution) and make it salient to
examine a particular problem (mis-reporting of U.S. news organization to Middle
East news).
Author’s Claims
Guzman claimed that American
media didn’t play a direct role in the Egyptian revolution, but they
were interested to explain the events more clearly to the American audience. This
study is specially designed to show how U.S. news created the picture of
Egyptians’ uprising wrongly, because they considered Egyptian friends and
report them in a good frame if they are pro-U.S. and if not the face of “War on
Terror” appears.
Also, Guzman claimed that the
introduction of social media as a platform for news made framing more difficult
for scholars to define, because independent news organizations reports the
conflicts, local news organizations report about the governmental rulers,
international news organizations focuses on their enemies, and the social media
get all those possible and can be framed on social networks through
hashtags.
Findings
1.CNN
and Fox’s media coverage of Mubarak, Muslims’ Brotherhood and anti-governmental
protesters is supporting who is allied with U.S. and who is its enemy.
2.Media
frames and U.S. media portrayal of Middle East and African region is dynamic
and static, because frames change with the shift of focus from group to
another. And it is static too as U.S. based its report upon the degree of
involvement in the event.
3.U.S.
portrayal of the anti-government protester that the right will be in their hands
and they will take in charge, shift after 4 years when the military gained
power after Morsy.
Criticism
The idea of framing any of the
Egyptian revolution participants as enemies or allies depended on the idea of
“Orientalist Stereotypes.” And it is also affected by the U.S. human interest.
Guzman realized how online news
content shared by Egyptians in the revolution changed the way of glocalized spread of information. And the U.S. news organizations were very behind
focusing all their reports on Arab as terrorist due to September 2011 events.
But what actually happened from the author view is that U.S. news organizations
got affected by the outcomes of the Egyptian revolution participants’
contribution.
So, the lack of real news sources
can shift the reality of situations and blurring a real reporting for the
current events, resulting in using the history as a source of information and
the drama as the strategy of writing it.
Fox news coverage for Muslims’
Brotherhood was firstly trying to report how the White house is balancing
between Mubarak and anti-government protesters. But it turned finally to use
Bush-era opinions about Muslims’ Brotherhood and mixing it with Obama’s
resulted in blurring the real situation in the Egyptian revolution. So, media
portrayed frames of U.S. is both dynamic and static, according to Guzman.

It is about the Egyptian Festivals and how they are similar in rituals in stead of their variety in aims and types...
Waiting to hear from you :)
Egypt is a wondrous country. It has many festivals. Some of them are historic and traditional, some are secular from the ancient Egyptian carnivals, and others are religious.
In spite of the variety of Egyptian celebrations, most of them have similar appearance.
Friends go out having fun together. People go to restaurants and cafes having great times. Others are having a Nile cruise.
Sara Balbaa from El Behera, Egypt will tell us about her Eid days:
There will be also many places for children to go. They take the open-arranged cars which called “Taf-taft” that takes them all around the places to celebrate the feasts.
And finally, “Mallahy” time comes. Yaaaay, it’s the Attraction Parks for all children. They like to go out play with their friends; having their Eid toys. And for sure, parents shouldn’t forget the weakling “El-Tartour” and the drum.
Along the history, Egypt goes through many civilizations with their differences in habits & cultures. However, it still has its unique presence; it’s my grandfather’s smile…
AUC Desert Development Center (DDC) is a non-profit institution that was established in 1979 as an idea by Dr. Adly Beshay, AUC physics professor. The main philosophy of DDC is to make the desert an attractive place for life and to help in solving the desert habitants’ problems. A-U-C Mary Habib.
Music fades in: Flashbacks – Free play music
Thirty one years ago, Dr. Adly Bishay, AUC Physics professor, introduced the idea of establishing the desert development center as a non-profit organization at AUC.
In 1979, the AUC board of trustees & the Egyptian council of ministries issued the case no. 37 to specify an area of 500 acres in south Tahrir directorate to establish the “Desert Development Center.”
According to Mr. Mahmoud Badran, DDC training manager,
BADRAN: Egypt’s problem is the limited resources. Population lives on 4% of Egypt’s area, and 96% is desert. There is a huge overcrowding in population in the Delta & Valley. So, the Egyptian government strategy in the last decades was to reclaim the desert and move the population from the Delta & Valley to inhabit the desert. The American University in Cairo decided to help in this field, and to insure that the university is helping the whole society not only to educate the rich, but also to contribute in service to Egypt.(:29)
From here, this idea got developed to result in a new era of Better Thinkers: Better Futures…
BADRAN: The main philosophy of DDC is to make the desert an attractive place for life and to help in solving the desert habitants’ problems. So, this project is mainly based on three axis; the services, applied research and training. (:12)
Announcer: Can you please tell us, Mr. Badran what are the main important researches that has been done since 1979?
BADRAN: AUC Desert Development Center is a non-profit institution that depends on self-financing under the AUC. We have three research centers; South Tahrir research center “on 575 acres,” Sadat City research center “25 acres,” and the head office in the main campus. The most important research that has been done since the establishment of DDC is in the field of Animal Production. New ways are introduced to improve the product of Egyptian cows from both meat and milk through the Hybridization of European cows with Egyptian ones. This research brought great results and was traded to farmers all over Egypt. (:39)
Another project was the analysis of crop remains like beans chaff and wheat hay to be used as animal’s feed. This research decreases the import of feeds and made use of the farm land remains. (:11)
In 1981, DDC began its citrus research to identify the best combination from grafting range of roots that aren’t commonly used in Egypt.
Citrus development was one of the researches that longs to 15 years in DDC labs. (:5)
By the time, DDC was growing from success to success; it didn’t forget AUC’s students. Until now, AUC’s alumni are admitting their loyalty and acknowledgment they gained from DDC.
Bishoy Hanna, AUC alumni, who graduated years ago from the Biology department, is now having his PHD degree in University of California Merced. He conducted some research with DDC that helped in the development of the New Cairo Campus.
HANNA: The DDC offered a lot of opportunities to the Biology department, because it’s by definition the Desert Development Center. There are ecological studies that could be done for developing the desert. At many points, we as a student, traveled to the DDC and we would sample the plants & animals there to use it for our training.
Announcer: What are the important studies that Biology department conducted with the help of DDC?
HANNA: I am not aware of all the studies that are conducted in DDC. However, I was involved in a project between professor Jeffery Miler & the DDC, which was to develop the GIS system to monitor the new campus plants.
Announcer: Ok, can you tell us about this project?
The aim of this project was that before, the plants were moved to the new campus. They were grown at DDC nursery. We did a GIS map, to map every single tree in the new campus & its water requirement and what kind of fertilizer. What kind of tree it is? And all of these information, we put it in database that was accessible to all those who work in the DDC. So, they can monitor the plants. And also, this map was used when they put the trees in the new campus.
The Desert Development Center not only worked with AUC departments to conduct studies for its benefit, but also, DDC helped in student’s academic progress.
Maha Khalil, AUC alumni, is having now her master degree in King Abdullah University of Science & Technology.
KHALIL: we were studying Ecology. We just walked around in the agricultural fields studying land use & sampling the insect population. Also, they have a very nice wind break forest where we did some nice walks in the sampling. So, DDC helped us to practice the stuff that we were learning about Ecology in class. Doing it by hand and getting first-hand experience. (:29)
Since 1991, the DDC has distributed over 1.3 million citrus trees to farmer in newly reclaimed desert areas.
By the year 2000, DDC achieved over 93% exports quality acceptance of citrus under the adoption of the Egyptian Ministry of Agriculture.
DDC citrus, fruit trees research, and technology transfer activities now contribute over $ 16,000,000 (16 million dollars) per year to the Egyptian economy.
BADRAN:The program was very successful, and the proof is its continuous operation since 1979 till now.
Special thanks for Mr. Mahmoud Badran, DDC training manager – Dr. Bishoy Hanna, UC Merced TA – Miss Maha Khalil, AUC alumni – Mr. Gaser El Safty, AUC undergraduate.
Today, I will introduce a new topic from the Egyptian street about the new law of closing shops early in Cairo.
Hope you enjoy it and waiting to hear from you :)
A state of love, confusion, sadness may be madness have spread in the city that never sleeps "Cairo."
Most Egyptians love to hang out with their friends and families at night. However, they may get confused if they find all shops are closed at 9pm!
Shehab, conflict resolution trainer: "People are always out and the shops are always there. People like to go out. I think it will take away the nature of the city and its culture. Frankly, I have to admit, I don't have any shops downtown or any other place, so economically I won't be directly affected by this. But I am definitely hate waking around the city are close at 9 or 10 pm, which is in Cairo defination is pretty early. It will feel too much like just not Cairo."
That decision was reported by Cairo governor Mr. Abdel Azim Wazir to be applied effectively by January 2011, which drove shops' owner mad, because simply people show up at night.
Mike, Mercado Italiano owner in Rehab & Downtown: "I am Mike working at Salad Fiesta. I think it's a horrible idea for the shops to close at 9 o'clock. I mean some people didn't go out of work till 8 - 9 o'clock. And you know this is Egypt that opens 24 hrs, they just stay open. I think it is very bad idea."
Others feel sad when hearing this news, because they think nothing can be done before 9pm.
Fatma, AUC Chemistry major at AUC: "Personally, I am Chemistry major and I finish my labs at 9 sometimes. So, closing shops at 8 means no shopping. No going anywhere, but just staying at home."
Closing shops in Cairo at 9pm was the idea of Cairo Chamber of Commerce (CCC). What do you think Cairo will make to surprise Egyptians?

Hello,
Today, I will present for you an audio feature about the American University in Cairo Employment Fair for the semester Fall 2010. This feature will focus on questioning the effectivity of the employment fair to AUCian students, with some describtion for this fall employment fair...
Hope you enjoy it and waiting to hear from you...
LEAD-IN:
Although, the AUC Employment Fair became the region’s leader in university careers and placement services. Many students and alumni question the effectiveness of the employment fair and whether it is the best way to get employed or not.A-U-C’s Mary & Rania report.
Fade in: Free play music, without – pop vol 2
In 1986, the American University in Cairo introduced the idea of the Employment Fair as the first event of its kind in the Middle East. It is a one day event that aims at providing job opportunities for all AUC students according to their choices. Also, it helps integrating the employers’ recruiting needs with the skills and qualifications of AUC graduates.
Famous international companies seek to participate in the employment fair, because it gives them the opportunity to build good image among AUC students and alumni. So, more than 140 multinational and local corporations participate in the Fair.
The American University in Cairo offers each company a booth for USD 1000 as an early registration fee.
Career Advising and Placement services (CAPS) office publishes an employment fair booklet which provides information about the participating companies and the available vacancies. Interested students and alumni apply in person to company representatives at the Fair.
However, many controversies arose among AUC students and alumni on the effectiveness of the employment fair. Some students argue that the employment fair became less effective since moving to the new campus.
AHMAD RADWAN:” I graduated fall 09. And I am employed for four month now. I didn’t get the job from the employment fair. And I think it isn’t worth it even to go there even, because they publicize for themselves. It isn’t the point to get students employed. Their sweet gifts and stress balls are only to publicize themselves not to employ. Even my brother went there, but he didn’t get the job from there; as well as my sister, not onlyme.” (:20)
Others claim that most companies require experience which makes the fair not useful for fresh graduates.
RAMADAN: “The employment fair didn’t help me to get a job. The job requirements or perquisites are needed out of many years like average from 7 to 10 years. And they come for fresh graduates while they need 7 years of experience, what is the point of these jobs.”(:18)
Also, some students claim that they applied for lots of companies during the fair and were never called for an interview.
RAGIA MOSTAFA: “I applied in the employment fair, but they didn’t contact me. Most of the jobs I got were from the CAPS website.” (:6)
The employment fair is an opportunity that must be wisely captured. As the physicist William Pollard said: "It is the responsibility of leadership to provide opportunity, and the responsibility of individuals to contribute."
