OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This paper builds on previous evidence that partisan media can significantly sway the opinion of people through leading pictures, despite using non-partisan news texts (Caprini, 2023). This work seeks to augment the existing evidence to encompass and explore the interplay between verbal and nonverbal language in news production. I assess the opportunity for a strategic media player to trade off efficacy and plausible deniability, using words and pictures as complements or substitutes in US press coverage.
