The following research is analyzing Facebook communicators as Lacanian subjects. Lacanian subject is not the ‘individual’ or ‘conscious subject’ of Anglo-Amercian Philosophy. The psychoanalytic explanation of Lacanian barred subject leads the research to come up with an analytical description of scopophilia, love to see and to be seen, of Facebook as a computer-madiated communication. According to the post-structuralism and Lacanian approach using in this research, I will raise tow critical questions: 1- How to see and to be seen, become as a collective phantasy in Facebook? 2- How the Facebook discourse could be explained within the Lacanian hysteria-capitalism discourse? The Facebook users are being analyzed as subjects who are developing their interactions in the scopophilic field of Facebook in order to fulfill their traumatic lack in such a phantasmatic way. The reconstruction of the false identification in an invisible background and the declined satisfaction of subjects that originate from being embraced by frozen images is a significant issue to look at Facebook as a discourse that regenerates hysteric subjects. The penetration of capitalism ideology leads to gaze as an object that is considered as the product of the Facebook discourse.

According to the results, the experts have pointed out 11 roles of data journalism including “Journalistic”,“facilitation of interaction of the audience”, “achieving democracy” and “building credibility” roles and have emphasized that considering the tendency in other media to use data journalism, online media has gained more success in doing so. The future of data journalism is deemed positive and expanding and the role of big data is also brought to attention. Supporting the interests of the audience and media, influencing governments and aiding their interactions have been some of data journalism effects.

As a method to immunize individuals against media’s impacts, media literacy is able to develop critical thinking in its audience. The present study, consequently, intends to determine efficiency of media literacy learning in lowering violent behaviors evinced by players of violent video games. Materials and methods: In this study, a number of 100 adolescent violent video gamers who referred to Qom game nets were selected by random sampling method and divided into two groups: intervention and control. They were asked to fill in questionnaires on their demographical information, Ahvaz Aggression Inventory, and Attitudes Towards Violence. After arrangement of courses required for media literacy acquisition, educational intervention was undertaken in three sessions as group discussions and lectures for intervention group. To analyze the data, parametric tests such as independent T, paired T, and chi-square were used employing SPSS software V20. Findings: Results of independent T-Test showed that neither groups had significant differences in their average aggressiveness and attitude to violence scores in pre-intervention phase. After termination of intervention phase in one month, however, results showed that aggressiveness cases and positive attitudes to violence were diminished in intervention group as to control group (P=0.0001): Conclusions: Acquisition of media literacy can reduce effects of video games on aggressiveness level of young players.
