- Description:
- This study uses communication model of feedback and signals to analyse the dynamics of nationalism, selflessness and discipline which are so essential in holding together African nations. Drawing from Miller and Rice's (1972) theory of systems organization, it points out that national systems must have attractions for individuals, groups, clans, and communities whose ideas compete for ascendancy in the national schema. National leadership, often rooted within clan or ethnic heritage, must eschew parochialism and allow for the expression of diverse group (ethnic) interests and opinions if nationhood (seen as an abstract term) is to acquire positive identification by the individuals, groups and communities.

- Description:
- The news selection process of African-American newspaper editors in terms of news about Africa, was evaluated by addressing two research questions: (i) How do African-American newspaper editors decide which African news to publish? (ii) What influences their decision about the quantity and quality of coverage? A two-page questionnaire was mailed to African-American newspaper editors in 1991 and 1992. The study hypothesized that editors' perceptions of a foreign news event had a direct and significant impact on the way they process the news stories they receive daily. The study reveals that gatekeeping practices of African-American newspaper editors were basically similar to those of other western editors. This was not surprising given the similarity in their education, environment and newsroom socialization. The African-American newspaper editors are distinct, however, in subject matter of reporting. African-American newspaper editors think though, that positive involvement of the United States in the affairs of African countries would positively influence the education of the American public about the heritage of African-Americans. The reporting and issues in African-American newspapers were also investigated.
