- Not in my (media) backyard: Climate justice and global media political economyPublication . Fernandes, AdalbertoJournalism's economic crisis affecting the Global South and Semi-Peripheral countries has made them more vulnerable to the mainstream media conglomerates from the Global North. The control of global agendas of information is also an opportunity to influence the political narrative about responsibilities regarding climate change. The objective of this research is to analyse how CNN Brazil and CNN Portugal depict the US climate crisis and to evaluate the influence of CNN's presence in these countries. A qualitative critical discourse analysis suggests that the US is presented as the primordial victim of climate change, being the climate change portrayed as an abstract entity that is non-politically culpable for the catastrophe. Also, the expansion of CNN has reduced Brazilian and Portuguese newsrooms to a translational work of news originally made by CNN headquarters, which is sometimes unethically disguised as original journalistic work. However, there are, even if rare, signs of resistance that read the US crisis through Brazilian and Portuguese concerns.
- Banking reputation and its impact on stock markets: a big data analysis through online commentsPublication . Casado-Molina, Ana-María; Rojas-de-Gracia, María-Mercedes; Alarcón-Urbistondo, Pilar; Ramos, CeliaPurpose Given the substantial number of social conversations on the Internet, companies must remain vigilant about protecting their reputations and businesses. The purpose of this research is to measure the impact on share prices of reputational variables, measured through online comments, at the banking sector level as well as patterns of behavior between these variables and fluctuations in share rices. Design/methodology/approach Using big data and business intelligence techniques, bank reputation was analyzed through online social comments. The sample includes seven Spanish banks. To measure the impact of reputational variables on share prices, an Online Reputation Index was created. These variables were then correlated and filtered with the share price variation rate of each bank on a daily basis under two scenarios: using all share price data and also focusing on times of sharp fluctuations. Finally, multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify patterns in these relationships. Findings The findings reveal that negative comments focusing on attitude, emotions and governance experiences - particularly regarding ethical performance - are the only reputational variables with a clear impact on share price fluctuations in the banking sector. Strong correlations between reputation variables and share prices were observed only when online comments were extremely negative. These behaviors were more frequent during periods of significant price fluctuations. Originality/value This is the first study to analyze the impact of the reputation of the banking sector measured in the online environment on share price, taking into account its multidimensional construct.
