M. Laurent Duval, Société Radio-Canada, préside la 6e séance du colloque. Jacques Vermette, Université Laval, Peter Narvaez, Memorial University et Graham Knight, McMaster University sont les orateurs invités. Dans son exposé, Au-delà du dit... Voit-on ce dont on parle dans des émissions de nouvelles?, M. Vermette nous fait connaître les résultats d'une enquête touchant la relation de la richesse de ce qui est vu par rapport à ce qui est dit. Il cite des statistiques basées sur quelques reportages télévisés en français et en anglais au Canada, entre autres, le procès de Klaus Barbie et l'affaire dite Irangate. Les pourcentages qu'il invoque sont ceux des nouvelles lues avec, ou sans reportage, du rythme du montage, du nombre de graphiques, photos, documents d'archives, etc. En terminant, il parle de certaines conclusions que l'on doit tirer des résultats de l'enquête. Des extraits projetés sur l'écran appuient ses propos. Based on his scholarly work "The Vegetable Holder : Send-off parties as Rites of Passage in the Occupational Folklife of Newscasters", Peter Narvaez discourses on the historical mandate of the CBC and its efforts to instill standards of behaviour and broadcasting ethics among the staff. Narvaez sees a source of conflict between these standards and the peer group folklife of newscasters in the course of their occupational life. He argues for an understanding of the human dimensions as a necessary aspect of the "canon of work techniques". By means of a few slides and allusions to humour, some of it off-colour, and to various goings-on during staffers' get-togethers, the speaker goes on to explain what is involved in send-off parties and relates the particulars of one of the parties and its connection with a hydroponic greenhouse. (end of tape - the rest of the presentation has not been taped. Questions and answers follow). Graham Knight's paper is entitled "The Substance of Style: Presenting Television News".~The speaker reflects on what prompted the criticism that TV is mostly style with little substance; form over content. He explores the current trends towards more subjectivity in newscasting to tie in with viewers' understanding and appreciation of what is happening. The changes involve more use of direct address, voice over, anchor persons, reporters speaking directly from the field, interviewing techniques, etc. Knight refers to the relationship between subjectivity and objectivity as being a matter of balance in the qualitative, rather than the quantitative senses. He relegates the question of fitting these changes in the structure of TV news presentation to cultural and ideological factors. Followed by questions and answers.
