    Introduction. Due to the communicative and psychological influence of the brand character, as an audiovisual element of the advertising message has an undeniable advantage over its other elements, especially when it comes to the verbal part of the advertising message.
    The relevance of the researech is due to the information overload of the modern advertising market, in which experts try to attract the attention of the target audience and interest them in unusual properties, characteristics of the brand with the help of mascots, thus helping to communicate with consumers.
    Research methods. Achieving the goals of the article is provided by using methods: axiomatic method was used to study and definition of the conceptual apparatus, generalization of criteria and classifications of mascots in terms of mass communications; analytical method was used for studying global trends in creating brand characters; empirical method was aimed to generalize the practical experience of attracting brand character; comparative method helped to generalize practical experience of involving brand characters in Europe and the USA.
    The results and discussion. Psychologists say that one of the vital factors for a person is communication. In the process of communication a certain attitude, impression, emotion, etc. is formed. Brands have long been communicating with the audience, not just offering a product or service. Advertising gives people an example of people’s behavior that will make their lives easier or brighter.

    Conclusions. Thus, analyzing the theoretical material, we can conclude that a brand character is an effective tool for image formation. Brand characters have become mascots for many organizations and companies. Examining the various characteristics of the brand character, it was found that this is a real or fictional character who has his character, features, history and is used to strengthen the brand as part of the image strategy.

  • Violation of the standards of journalism and the code of ethics is the most pressing problem for Ukrainian media when covering news. To improve the rating of trust in television, journalists first
    need to cover information in accordance with professional and ethical standards. The urgency of the topic lies in a thorough study of compliance with standards in the news programs of Ukraine and 1 +
    1 TV channels. As a result, we found that the TSN (Television Service of News) program most often violates the standard of authenticity, separating facts from comments and assessments of journalists
    (correspondents use evaluative judgments), balance of opinions and points of view (no comments from key participants). However, 1 + 1 adheres to efficiency and simplicity, the news is covered as simply,
    clearly, and quickly to keep the information relevant. Today’s newscasts often do not adhere to standards of reliability and separation of facts from comments and assessments (often do not submit captions to
    synchronies, use infographics without indication of authorship). Also, violate the balance of thoughts and points of view, accuracy, completeness and simplicity. However, very often the news is covered in the form of live coverage that are the stories provide up-to-date and up-to-date information.

    Results. Thus, out of 46 analyzed TSN news stories on 1 + 1 TV channel, 17 revealed violations of professional journalistic standards. Most often, TSN violates the standard of
    reliability. Journalists very often: do not indicate the sources of information of the received facts (instead they say «it is reported that…», «they say…», etc.). In the TSN newscasts
    reporters often do not adhere to the standard balance of opinions and views. Journalists do not comment on the main participants in the events. The news on the 1 + 1 TV channel
    usually are covered as simply as possible so that each viewer understands, as well as promptly to maintain the relevance of information. In the program Today of the Ukraine TV
    channel a total of 40 stories in three newscasts were analyzed. In 19 of them we found noncompliance with professional standards. Journalists and presenters often violate standards
    of authenticity, separating facts from comments and assessments. The presenter in the studio uses evaluative judgments: «Artem, so what’s there? Without custody, I hope?»,
    «Sensational investigation». In addition, violate the accuracy, completeness and simplicity. However, in each story there was operational information, because very often the news was
    covered in the form of live coverage.

  • On Ukrainian television, reality shows take up more and more airtime every year and gain the loyalty of viewers. Involving «real people» in filming, TV channels use stereotypes and prejudices with
    which the main characters live and with which the viewer can relate. The specificity of the reality show «Supermama» is to involve in the filming not only the main characters but also their children. Since
    children are a vulnerable group that cannot make decisions on their own, this can lead to violations of their rights and trauma both during filming and after the release of the program. Analysing the 4 seasons of the program, we can say that violations of work with children occur repeatedly, so we offer solutions both preventive and post-production.

    Introduction. Children’s rights need special attention, as they cannot make their own decisions and need the protection and care of their parents. At the same time, parents can take
    advantage of their children. This also applies to the participation of children in reality shows. It is the responsibility of both parents and the film crew to comply with the legal framework
    of Ukraine regarding children’s participation in media projects, providing comfortable physical and psychological conditions for filming, caring for the child’s psychological state
    during filming and after the show.
    Purpose and relevance. The reality show «Supermama» which involves not only adult protagonists but also their children is selected for analysis. The participation of minors
    in the program can lead to violations of their rights and discrimination, as well as the establishment of stereotypes in society about the treatment of children. Currently, research
    on discrimination against children in the media is just beginning in Ukraine, and research on discrimination in reality shows has not yet been conducted. Based on the analysis of 4
    seasons of reality shows, the article provides recommendations for TV companies to work with children in the process of creating a reality show.
    The research methodology. The research used methods of analysis and synthesis of empirical data, content analysis, abstraction to identify discriminatory practices in the plots of the program, deductive method for summarizing.
    Results. The study analysed the discriminatory practices of the «Supermama» program for participating children and the impact on child viewers. It has been established that
    program producers and main participants repeatedly violate the rights of minors (negative coverage of their lives, negative comments on children and the upbringing process in general
    in the program, misogyny, violations of the law on media work with children, etc.) and inflict destructive influence on child viewers. transmitting and perpetuating stereotypes and regulating discrimination on various grounds.
    Conclusions. Recommendations for working with children in the filming process and the post-production phase were made. The article can be a basis for researching discriminatory
    practices against children in reality shows and the media in general. The findings can also be used to establish the dynamics of overcoming discrimination against children in the Ukrainian media.

  • The article analyzes podcasts as a component of Ukrainian Internet-media content. It is determined that this format is produced by a significant group of online media. It was found that the largest number
    of them are those who are antipodes of the so-called mainstream (traditional) media. These are the media that profess the so-called “slow journalism”. It is noteworthy that podcasts are mostly presented in niche media. The thematic range of podcasts depends on the type of media – whether it is media for broad audiences or niche media. The genre range of podcasts in Internet-media is limited – podcasters are the most active in recording programs in the genres of monologue, dialogue and interview.

    Introduction. More and more Internet-media are joining podcasts. This process is becoming a trend. We need to talk about such media, consider podcasts on their platforms as
    a product that allows these media to become closer, more understandable to their recipients, to change the traditional approach to media consumption.
    Relevance of the study. Research on the development of podcasts in the online media system is relevant because it gives an opportunity to understand how they are represented
    in the Internet-media, which media produce them most actively, what genres and topics podcasts offer their listeners.
    Methodology. The following methods were used in the study: classification – allowed to clearly identify those groups of online media in which podcasts are presented; content analysis – the thematic range of podcasts is clarified; analysis and systematization – made it possible to determine the genre priorities of podcasts in the studied media group.
    Results. The list of Internet-media producing podcasts, as well as the podcasts themselves, is quite wide. Almost all online media are direct producers of their podcasts. Podcasts are
    presented in both traditional online media and media that profess the values of so-called “slow journalism”. And podcasts are more widely represented in the last group. It is noteworthy
    that podcasts are mostly presented in niche media. The thematic range of podcasts depends on the type of media. The widest thematic layer is presented in online media, designed for
    a wide audience. Niche publications are focused on specific topics, which depends on their direction. The genre potential of podcasts in online media is narrow. Monologues, dialogues
    and interviews predominate. Use podcasters, reports, documentaries, essays. They testify to the avant-garde of these media.
    Conclusions. Podcasts are becoming popular in the media field, according to our research. Therefore, we consider it promising to consider the development trends of the above format on various media platforms.

    analysis of publications, explores the features of the reflection of historical events and their programmed influence on the formation of behavioral stereotypes of the audience. As a result, the author concludes that the Sovietization of Ukrainian reality took place through media reports, which clearly distinguished between the concepts of «friend» and «enemy», as well as formed the attitude to the Ukrainian through the so-called strategy of «soft Russification by Zhdanov». Thus, the formation and self-identification of the Soviet personality was determined by the principle of full perception of the USSR and the activities of the Communist Party.

    Introduction. During 1943–1960, the formation of Ukrainian identity was directly influenced by communist ideology, as well as the totalitarian system of government of the USSR, which, formally (constitutionally) giving nations their own cultural development and equal rights within the USSR, actually implemented a policy of supremacy and elitism. Thus, in this period it was not so much about the formation of Ukrainian identity, but about the reformatting and creation of such a phenomenon as Homo Soveticus (Soviet man).
    Relevance of the study. The article aim is to reveal the strategy of conceptualization of the Soviet identity in the context of ideologizing society by mass media and propaganda.
    Methodology. Such methods as content-analysis, work with archival sources, psycholinguistic analysis of texts.
    Results. As a result, the author concludes that the Sovietization of Ukrainian reality took place through media reports, which clearly distinguished between the concepts of «friend»
    and «enemy», as well as formed the attitude to the Ukrainian through the so-called strategy of «soft Russification by Zhdanov». Thus, the formation and self-identification of the Soviet
    personality was determined by the principle of full perception of the USSR and the activities of the Communist Party. There was a complete replacement of values (religion was replaced
    by ideology, the role of preacher fell on the shoulders of the agitator, etc.), as well as the gradual leveling of national customs and traditions (leaving visual attributes – dressing
    Ukrainian costumes for «special» occasions, – the internal meaning was eradicated, and also the feeling of simmering situation developed, which, in the end, led to the rejection of
    Ukrainian as inferior, unfashionable, unnecessary).
    Conclusion. Further study of the peculiarities of the formation of Soviet identity will provide an opportunity to develop ways to form the Ukrainian information space and protect
    it from information attacks of aggressor countries.

  • In the conditions of the external aggression against Ukraine, the issue of information consumption by Ukrainian servicemen became especially relevant, primarily from the state media, the founder
    of which is the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. The purpose of the article is to determine the place of military media among the sources of official information for servicemen, as well as the degree of need in
    specialized media of the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Questionnaire survey of servicemen of one of the units of the Marine Corps of the Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
    showed that the leading role in informing personnel is played by internal communications. About 40% of servicemen use military media as source of information. The most common source of information for

    Introduction. In the conditions of external aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the source of official information for servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
    are the state media which were founded by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. In the period since 2014, the system of military media has undergone significant changes, as well as
    the transformation of the public relations and strategic communicatios in the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of Ukraine has continued. At the present stage, it remains
    significant to clarify the current position of the military media as a source of information.
    Relevance of the study. The purpose of the article is to determine the place of military media among the sources of official information for servicemen, as well as the degree of need
    in specialized media of the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
    Methodology, results, conclusions. According to a questionnaire survey of servicemen of one of the units of the Marine Corps of the Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,
    it was found that at the level of this separate military unit the leading role in informing personnel is played by internal communications. About 40% of servicemen use military
    media as source of information.

    The Internet is the most common source of information for military personnel. The military often uses several types of media, but if they use only one source to receive news, it is usually social networks. All military media from which respondents receive information are presented on the Internet. This may indicate the impact of the development of the Internet and information and communication technologies on the functioning of traditional media of the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
    The results of the questionnaire indicate the need for structural and functional transformation of the existing system of military media. To confirm this, it is necessary to
    conduct a comprehensive study on the scale of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
    In the future, this will provide an opportunity to develop proposals for improving the processes of socio-communication interaction of the army with society and information and media support of troops (forces).

Today the Ukrainian system of university training for journalists faced a serious challenge: not only ordinary citizens, but also journalists are not ready to confront total post-truth in the political sphere in modern socio-cultural communication. Accordingly, educators should now look for new ways of training students, who will not repeat the mistakes of current media professionals in a few years.
