Abstract:

Quais as definições do jornalismo investigativo no Brasil? Na prática profissional, o que o distingue do jornalismo de modo geral e de outras especialidades da área? Quais os critérios de consagração de um jornalista como repórter investigativo? Essas e outras questões estão no seio desta pesquisa que busca identificar as condições de possibilidade da emergência dos discursos sobre o jornalismo investigativo em nosso país e, principalmente, esclarecer as apropriações que foram feitas a partir deles. Nosso intuito era compreender as definições de jornalismo investigativo que têm sido trabalhadas na bibliografia nacional à luz das disputas que tomam forma no interior do campo jornalístico. Partimos da análise de obras teóricas sobre o tema, de coletâneas de reportagens investigativas e de fontes documentais (como resultados de premiações, dados de associações etc.) para levantarmos definições, referências e apropriações do discurso do \"jornalismo investigativo\" em nosso país. Ao longo da pesquisa - que se focou na análise de obras publicadas principalmente entre 1970 e 2010 - conseguimos identificar três eixos nos quais as definições de JI poderiam ser divididas (um com foco no papel ativo do jornalista, outro com foco na função de denúncia e um terceiro que considera o jornalismo investigativo um pleonasmo) e, pelo menos, três usos diferentes dessa especialidade jornalística: ora ela aparece como sinônimo de grande reportagem, ora está identificada com o jornalismo policial e, após a redemocratização e a profissionalização do jornalismo brasileiro, ela será mais identificada com o escândalo político. Argumentamos que cada um desses deslocamentos de sentido, que por vezes são muito sutis e não necessariamente lineares, podem ser entendidos como posicionamentos diante de acontecimentos e transformações que ocorreram no período: o fim da censura prévia e o início da abertura política do regime militar, o crescimento do papel das Relações Públicas e das assessorias de imprensa, as regulamentações profissionais e o desenvolvimento do ensino de jornalismo, bem como as reformas editoriais em grandes veículos de comunicação. Compreendendo essas disputas e tendo em vista as transformações que as novas mídias estão promovendo no campo, defendemos uma nova compreensão do jornalismo investigativo, em termos de sua posição em relação à esfera do poder, que recusa os critérios puramente baseados nos métodos de apuração ou nos seus efeitos. What are the definitions of investigative journalism in Brazil? In professional practice, which distinguishes it from ordinary journalism and other specialties of the area? What are the acclaim criteria of a journalist as an investigative reporter? These and other questions are at the core of this research that seeks to identify the emergence conditions of discourses on investigative journalism in our country, and, primarily, clarify the appropriations made from them. Our aim was to understand the investigative journalism definitions that have been put forth in the national bibliography in light of disputes that take shape within the journalistic field. We started from the analysis of theoretical works on the subject, investigative reports collections and documentary sources (such as results of awards, associations data etc.) to gather definitions, references and appropriations of the \"investigative journalism\" discourse in our country. During the research - which focused on the analysis of works published mainly between 1970 and 2010 - we were able to identify three areas in which IJ definitions could be divided (one focusing on the journalist\'s active role, the other focusing on the denunciation function and a third part who considers investigative journalism pleonastic) and at least three different uses of this journalistic branch: sometimes it appears as synonymous with cover story, occasionally it is identified with police reporting and, after the democratization and professionalization of Brazilian journalism, it will be identified with political scandal. We argue that each of these shifts of direction, which are sometimes very subtle and not necessarily linear, can be understood as stances regarding events and changes that occurred during the period such as: the end of censorship and the beginning of the political relaxation of the military regime, the growth of the role of Public Relations and press offices, professional regulations and development of journalism education, as well as editorial reform in major media outlets. Understanding these disputes and in light of the changes in the field promoted by the media, we advocate a new understanding of investigative journalism, in terms of its position in relation to the power sphere, a sphere that refuses criteria based purely based on the reporting methods or its effects.

Going through WikiLeaks and Snowden cases, and the emergence of organizations such as the American ProPublica. Although still an exception in the daily practices of newsrooms, the collaboration between journalists from different news organizations has become more and more present, to the point of being considered today one of the main trends in the media industry. This impulse is the result of different phenomena. On the one hand, there is a growing need to deal with global and complex issues such as corruption and the environment, in a scenario of severe resource constraints for investigation caused by the crisis in the news organizations’ business models. On the other hand, there is a greater availability of information consolidated in large databases, created by the increasing strength of the culture of transparency in several countries, and journalists trained in extracting relevant news from these databases. It is also necessary to take into account the learning process of the collaborative work, developed with the support of journalist associations over time, which has been key to creating a culture of more collaboration in journalism. In order to account for such an object, this study will use the network and creative process theories developed by Cecilia Salles, as well as the concept of systems and complexity, according to Edgard Morin Do Arizona Project, desenvolvido ainda nos anos 1970 e considerado o primeiro trabalho de atuação jornalística conjunta em grande escala, aos Panama Papers, investigação que reuniu quase 400 profissionais, de 76 países, em torno do maior vazamento de dados até então. Passando pelos casos WikiLeaks e Snowden, e pelo surgimento de organizações como a americana ProPublica. Apesar de ainda ser exceção na prática cotidiana das redações, a colaboração entre jornalistas de diferentes veículos vem se tornando cada vez mais presente, a ponto de ser descrita atualmente como uma das principais tendências no setor. Esse impulso é fruto de diferentes fenômenos. Por um lado existe a necessidade crescente de lidar com assuntos globais e complexos, como corrupção e meio ambiente, em um cenário de severas restrições de recursos para investigação, provocado pela crise dos modelos de negócios das empresas. Por outro, tem-se uma disponibilidade maior de informações agrupadas em grandes bancos de dados, criados pelo fortalecimento da cultura da transparência em inúmeros países, e jornalistas treinados em extrair deles notícias relevantes. Também é preciso levar em conta o aprendizado do trabalho conjunto, desenvolvido com o apoio de associações de jornalistas ao longo do tempo, que vem sendo chave para criar uma cultura de mais colaboração no jornalismo. Para dar conta de tal objeto, serão utilizadas fundamentalmente as teorias de rede e de processo de criação desenvolvidas por Cecilia Salles, além da conceituação de sistemas e complexidade, conforme Edgard Morin

Abstract:

This dissertation discusses the representation of investigative journalism in two Hollywood films produced between 2009 and 2015. The films in question are Spotlight (2015) and State of Play (2009). Investigative reporting and its practices are being discussed by using academic literature and previous research as the foundation of the study, followed by a discussion about the chosen research method: textual analysis. The textual analysis is conducted by concentrating specifically on three core journalistic practices of objectivity, use of sources and news values, and how these practices are represented in the films. The three core practices are teased out by using specific sequences from the movies in a form of images. The results of the analysis are then contrasted towards the existing literature discussed in the literature review. By using the means of textual analysis, the study found that both films are relying on stereotypes about journalism yet certain ‘reality’ about journalism can be found in these films. The journalists are in many cases shown as outcasts yet heroic figures who conduct thorough investigation and inform the public. In both films, the profession of investigative journalism is legitimized, and the journalists are depicted as the watchdogs of the society. Both movies lay much importance on the individual reporters and the investigation processes: processes that are rare in real newsrooms. This further enhances the mythic and overly positive, romanticized representation on journalism in films. As the study was based on textual analysis only, its nature was qualitative and interpretative. Future studies could include, yet not be limited to, adding another method and through this, to further deepen the research about journalism in films. Areas of research could include films produced in the 21st century and more specifically, films about journalism in the digital era.

Abstract:

This bachelor thesis, which is also the result of a Minor Field Studies scholarship, examines journalists’ situation in Cuba. The aim is to see the working conditions of the journalists by listening to how they themselves perceive their professional role, what their professional values are and what they see as opportunities and obstacles in their work. A major reason for undertaking this research is the theoretical perspective that emphasizes the importance of journalism studies in developing countries. The results are based mainly on fourteen qualitative interviews with Cuban journalists. By comparing the results with earlier studies including development journalism and studies about digital media in Cuba the study shows that Cuban journalists’ main duty is to defend the Communist Party. Many of the interviewed journalists experience self-censorship as a problem and blame it on Cuba's lack of a press law. Even if journalist salaries are extremely low, just like salaries of other professions in the state, the journalists highlight many positive aspects of their job. The education is free and some of the interviewees have opportunities to travel both within and outside the country because of their job. Cuban journalists are well educated, normally have a great passion for their profession and often have a strong desire to improve their work. The technological development in Cuba is slow but changes the conditions for the journalistic work and will continue to have a great influence on Cuban society.

Abstract:

In this research study, the researcher investigates obstacles faced by news journalists in investigative journalism in a democracy as experienced in Botswana. Investigative journalism and democracy have a symbiotic relationship. This relationship serves to make the public sensitive about, and aware of, injustices and undemocratic practices and it could, ultimately, contribute significantly to the process of democratization (Faure 2005: 155). Unfortunately, in their endeavor to keep up with the ethos of investigative journalism, journalists meet obstacles that range from legal to financial issues. The author investigates those factors that reporters in Botswana rate as having the greatest impact on their investigative efforts. The study also assesses the attitudes of journalists in the country towards the roles and responsibilities of the fourth estate, which supports investigative reporting. Investigative journalism is centered on disclosure, described by six elements: public interest, theme, accuracy, follow-up reports, consequences and questioning the status quo (Faure 2005:160; Marron 1995:1). The researcher interrogated the current practice of investigative journalism in newsrooms in the Botswana context, by means of a self-administered questionnaire. A cumulative sum of scores of each rank order for each obstacle was used to observe the one rated the most impeding by Botswana journalists. Elementary descriptive statistics in the form of percentages were used to assess attitudes of Botswana journalists towards investigative journalism. The same method was used to assess the proportion of investigative stories in four sampled Botswana newspapers. The contents of the respective newspapers were assessed against the five elements of investigative reporting that include: theme, public interest, questioning the status quo, accuracy, follow-up reports and consequences.

The study assumes that there are differences between the production of daily journalism and investigative journalism, differences that define the practice of each one. With this, the research intends to characterize if the specificities of the investigative journalism constitute as a method of the process of production of investigative reporting, to systematize the investigative investigative reporting procedures and to contribute to the research on investigative journalism in Brazil. For that point, this work carried out a bibliographical survey on the investigative journalism object, interviews with professionals who work in this area and analysis of investigative reports. The theoretical framework is based on the theory of social construction, newsmaking and concepts about investigative journalism. The study concluded that, despite the similarity of investigative journalism procedures, investigative journalism presents the main specificity of how professionals appropriate these procedures. From this perspective, the research falls under Line 1 - Journalistic Production Processes of the Postgraduate Program in Journalism of the Ponta Grossa State University, which includes research projects on aspects and situations of journalistic production processes Esta pesquisa propõe discutir o processo de produção do jornalismo investigativo, com objetivo de verificar especificidades no processo produtivo da reportagem investigativa, que atravessam desde o levantamento da pauta, os procedimentos de apuração e a construção do material final. O estudo parte do pressuposto de que há diferenças entre a produção do jornalismo diário e o jornalismo investigativo, diferenças estas que definem a prática de cada um. Com isso, a pesquisa pretende caracterizar se as especificidades do jornalismo investigativo se constituem como um método do processo de produção da reportagem investigativa, sistematizar os procedimentos de apuração da reportagem investigativa e contribuir para as pesquisas sobre jornalismo investigativo no Brasil. Para isso, este trabalho realizou levantamento bibliográfico sobre o objeto jornalismo investigativo, pesquisa documental, entrevistas com profissionais que atuam nessa área e análise de reportagens investigativas. O referencial teórico fundamenta-se na teoria da construção social, newsmaking e conceitos sobre jornalismo investigativo e apuração jornalística. O estudo concluiu que, apesar de similaridade de procedimentos de apuração com o jornalismo factual, o jornalismo investigativo apresenta como principal especificidade a forma como os profissionais se apropriam desses procedimentos. Sob esta perspectiva, a pesquisa se enquadra na Linha 1 - Processos de Produção Jornalística do Programa de Pós Graduação em Jornalismo da Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa, que contempla projetos de investigação sobre aspectos e situações dos processos de produção jornalística.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Comunicação Social vertente em Jornalismo O presente estudo realizou uma investigação comparativa de três projetos de três organizações do jornalismo colaborativo: The Panama Papers, do Consórcio Internacional de Jornalistas Investigativos (sigla em inglês: ICIJ); Microsoft, do Investigate Europe; e “América Latina, Región de Carteles”, da Connectas. Com o objetivo de perceber os impactos destas organizações no mercado dos média, seus compromissos e práticas, o presente estudo realizou uma análise em duas fases: sete entrevistas qualitativas semiestruturadas em profundidade, e análise de conteúdo quantitativa de 10 peças noticiosas de cada um dos projetos. Alguns resultados alcançados são de que as organizações de jornalismo investigativo colaborativo são mais do que plataformas; elas publicam, ensinam, captam recursos para si mesmas e suas próprias investigações, além de, muitas vezes, possuírem suas próprias equipas. Trata-se de organizações dos média sem fins lucrativos que por serem menores, mais ágeis e flexíveis e, principalmente, por produzirem mais e melhores investigações e informações de alta qualidade, têm se mostrado mais efetivas na condução de investigações jornalísticas de grande envergadura, e mais eficientes na captação de recursos por diversas fontes. The present study carried out a comparative investigation of three projects of three organizations of collaborative journalism: The Panama Papers, of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ); Microsoft, of Investigate Europe; and “América Latina, Región de Carteles” by Connectas. In order to understand the impact of these organizations on the media market, their commitments and practices, the present study carried out a two-stage analysis: seven qualitative semi-structured interviews in depth, and quantitative content analysis of 10 pieces of news from each of the projects. Some results obtained are that collaborative investigative journalism organizations are more than platforms, they publish, teach, capture resources for themselves and their own investigations, as well as often owning their own teams. Collaborative journalism organizations are non-profit media organizations that, because they are smaller, more agile and flexible, and mainly producing more and better investigations and high-quality information, have been more effective in conducting large-scale investigative journalism, and more efficient in raising funds from a variety of sources.

Abstract:

I en tid då tidningsbranschen står inför en omfattande strukturomvandling, är jakten igång att hitta komplement och substitut till gamla intäktskällor. Som ett led av detta har intresset väckts för att använda crowdfunding för att finansiera nyhetsjournalistik. Crowdfunding är en finansieringsform där privatpersoner och organisationer kan ansöka om ekonomiskt stöd från ett större antal finansiärer. Frågan är dock om det finns en potentiell marknad för crowdfunding-finansierad journalistik i Sverige.Den här rapporten ämnar kartlägga den svenska befolkningens kännedom om, och deras inställning till, att finansiera journalistik med crowdfunding. Detta görs genom en enkätundersökning som syftar till att svara på följande frågor:Vilken inställning har den svenska befolkningen till crowdfunding som en finansieringsformför granskande journalistik?Vilka förutsättningar krävs för att finansieringsformen ska accepteras av svenskanyhetskonsumenter?Vilka hinder upplever svenskarna till att betala för granskande journalistik med crowdfunding?Resultatet visade att kännedomen om crowdfunding är låg och slutsatsen är att marknaden för crowdfunding är omogen i Sverige. Vidare är det är få som uppger att de med crowdfunding skulle kunna tänka sig att betala för en journalistik granskning i förväg. Dock ställer sig en femtedel positiva till finansieringsformen och en potential finns att omvandla denna inställning till betalningsvilja om rätt åtgärder görs.Respondenterna är beredda att betala för granskningar av orättvisor eller missförhållanden och gärna ämnen som de har ett personligt intresse av att få granskat. En förutsättning för att få finansieringsmodellen att fungera i Sverige är att man lyckas formulera för läsaren vilket mervärde som följer att betala för journalistik i förväg. Samtidigt krävs att framtida crowdfundingtjänster är tydliga kring finansiärernas rättigheter och skyldigheter, tillsammans med en fullständig transparens kring processen. In a time when the newspaper industry face major structural changes, a search for new andsupplemental sources of revenue has begun. In line with this, crowdfunding has been addressed as a way of financing journalism. Crowdfunding is a model of financing where individuals and organizations, can apply for funding from a wide range of funders. Several experiments have occurred in the world, e.g. Spot.us and Krautreporter. The question is whether there is a potential market for crowdfunded journalism in Sweden.The purpose of this paper is to describe the market for investigative journalism financed withcrowdfunding, from a consumer’s view. This is done through a survey that aims to answer the following questions:What is the attitude of the Swedish population towards crowdfunding as a form of financing of investigative journalism?What conditions are required for crowdfunding to be accepted by Swedish consumers?What obstacles do Swedish consumers experience to pay for journalism with crowdfunding?The results show that awareness of crowdfunding is low and the conclusion is that the Swedish market for crowdfunding is immature. Furthermore, only a few percentages of the respondents stated that they would be willing to pay for a journalistic work in advance. However, one fifth of the respondents are positive to the model of financing, and there are signs showing that this attitude can be converted into a willingness to pay, if the right measures are made.Most of the respondents state that they are willing to pay for the investigation of maladministration or injustices, and preferably subjects that they have a personal interest in getting audited. However a prerequisite for the model to work in Sweden is that one manages to articulate the added value of paying for journalism in advance. In the same time, future crowdfunding services must be absolutely clear about the financiers' rights and responsibilities along with full transparency around the process.

Abstract:

O jornalismo transnacional (in. cross border journalism; es. periodismo transfronteirizo; din. journalistik over grænser) ganhou visibilidade nos anos 2010 a partir de séries como o OffshoreLeaks e o SwissLeaks, por estabelecer uma rede de investigação colaborativa entre equipes de diferentes países em torno de temas de relevância continental ou mundial, que normalmente envolvem estratagemas nas finanças internacionais com fins ilícitos. Tais séries jornalísticas são o ponto de partida desta tese, sendo contextualizadas com a renovação dos marcos do jornalismo profissional, que inclui o jornalismo pós-industrial (ANDERSON, BELL&SHIRKY, 2013), o qual coincide com uma \"improvável época de ouro do jornalismo investigativo\" (LEWIS, 2009). Procura-se, na presente pesquisa, mapear um território de pioneiros dessa prática de imprensa, que atrai jornalistas veteranos e interessa até às redações clássicas. A partir das constatações do crescimento dessa prática, esta tese procura refletir sobre essa tendência e identificar nela fundamentos de um método, ainda que não plenamente consolidado. E de tal método extrair elementos para um conceito, cuja prática expõe as assimetrias da globalização e se projeta numa \"sociedade civil global\" (IANNI, 1996; KALDOR, 2003). Praticado por jornalistas investigativos como David Kaplan e jornalistas-pesquisadoras como a dinamarquesa Brigitte Alfter (2015) e a chilena Florencia Melgar Hourcade (2015), o jornalismo transnacional se beneficia do saber acumulado pelo \"jornalismo de dados\" e pelo \"jornalismo sem fins lucrativos\", o que estimula uma cultura não competitiva entre redações, fortalece empreendimentos não corporativos e dá abertura a uma estimulante discussão sobre identidade profissional. No campo teórico, esta tese investiga se essa nova fronteira profissional da imprensa subsidia de fato a emergência de uma opinião pública global de caráter generalista na medida em que abre um horizonte multifacetado e plural para o conceito de objetividade jornalística (agora entendida como transparência), e na medida em que incorpora valores de uma \"ética de jornalismo global\" (WARD, 2005, 2008, 2010). The cross border journalism (es. periodismo transfronteirizo; din. journalistik over grænser; pt. jornalismo transnacional) gained visibility in the years 2010 from series like OffshoreLeaks and SwissLeaks, by establishing a network of collaborative reporting between teams from different countries around issues of continental or global relevance, which usually involves stratagems in international finances for illicit purposes. These journalistic series are the starting point of this thesis, and they are contextualized with the renovation of the milestones of professional journalism, including the post-industrial journalism (ANDERSON, BELL & SHIRKY, 2013) and its coincidence with an \"unlikely golden era of investigative journalism\" (LEWIS, 2009). The research tries to report this territory of pioneers of this new practice from press, which attracts veteran journalists and interests even the classic newsrooms. From the factual findings, this thesis aims to reflect on this trend identifying foundations of a method, although not fully consolidated, and tries to extract therefrom the elements of a concept, and relating its practice to an emergent \"global civil society\" (IANNI, 1996; KALDOR, 2003) and exposing the asymmetries of globalization. Practiced by investigative journalists like David Kaplan and journalists-researchers as the Danish Brigitte Alfter (2015) and the Chilean Florencia Melgar Hourcade (2015), the transnational method takes benefit from the accumulated knowledge by the \"data journalism\" and the \"nonprofit journalism\" and can stimulates a non-competitive culture among newsrooms. This journalism strengthens non-corporate enterprises and gives opening to a stimulating discussion about professional identity. In theory, this thesis investigates if this new professional frontier of press subsidizes indeed the emergence of a global public opinion in a \"generalist\" character as it opens to journalistic field a multifaceted and plural horizon to objectivity (now understood as transparency), and as it incorporates values from a \"global journalism ethics\" (WARD, 2005, 2008, 2010).

Abstract:

Si un véritable mythe auréole aujourd’hui le nom et la figure d’Albert Londres, la production journalistique du célèbre grand reporter des années vingt reste relativement méconnue. Loin de se limiter aux enquêtes sociales qui ont forgé sa réputation de redresseur de torts, elle se compose d’une riche correspondance de guerre, de nombreux articles politiques et de plusieurs reportages d’évasion. Outre cette hétérogénéité, l’œuvre d’Albert Londres, qui oscille notamment entre argumentation et information, entre héritage et modernité, révèle nombre de tensions et de contradictions que la légende qui l’entoure a contribué à estomper. Il convient donc de redécouvrir son œuvre, de jeter sur elle un regard nouveau, de l’autopsier au sens étymologique du terme, pour diagnostiquer les raisons de son succès et les causes de sa consécration. Particulièrement ancrés dans l’actualité de leur époque, conditionnés par la situation de communication et de publication dans laquelle ils s’inscrivent, les reportages de Londres méritent d’être envisagés dans leur contexte, comme des discours traversés par de multiples stratégies. Outrepassant largement les seules intentions du journaliste, ces stratégies parcourent le reportage à tous les niveaux, de la pratique de terrain au circuit de diffusion, de la relation au lecteur à la posture du reporter. À la lumière de l’histoire de la littérature et du journalisme, de l’analyse du discours et de la sociologie de la littérature, nous tenterons donc de caractériser la poétique – au sens élargi du terme – des reportages afin de mettre au jour l’ambivalence et l’efficacité du « style Albert Londres » Albert Londres has become a household name and a mythical figure, however the journalistic work of this famous great reporter of the 1920s still remains unknown. This corpus extends far beyond his social ‘reportages’ that built his fame as a righter of wrongs and consists of a rich war correspondence, numerous political articles and several escapist reportages. To add to its diversity, the work of Albert Londres is always on the fence between argumentation and information, tradition and modernity. His work therefore reveals various tensions and contradictions which have been overshadowed by his myth. As a consequence, it is worth rediscovering his work, adopting a new point of view and performing an ‘autopsy’, that is, etymologically, a critical examination, in order to diagnose the reasons of its success and the causes of its critical acclaim. Deeply rooted in their time and strongly dependent on the communicational and publication context in which they appeared, Londres’ reports deserve to be seen against this background, as discourses informed by multiple strategies. Surpassing the sole intentions of a journalist, these strategies inform the reportages in all their dimensions, from the field research to the network of circulation and from the relationship with the reader to the ‘posture’ of the reporter. By drawing on the historiography of literature, journalism, discourse analysis and sociology of literature, this dissertation aims therefore to define the poetics – in the broad sense of this term – of these reports, in order to reveal the ambivalence and the effectiveness of the “Albert Londres style”

Abstract:

Journalists rely on image and video verification to support their investigations and often utilize open source tools to verify user generated content, but current practice requires experts be involved in every step of the process. Additionally, lacking custom tools to support verification efforts, experts are often limited to the utility of existing, openly available tools, which may or may not support the interactions and information gathering they require. We aim to support the process of geolocating images and videos through crowdsourcing. By enabling crowd workers to participate in the geolocation process, we can provide investigative journalists with efficient and complete verification of image locations. Parallelizing searching speeds up the verification process as well as provides a more extensive search, all while allowing the expert to follow up on other leads or investigative work. We produced a software prototype called GroundTruth which enables crowd workers to support investigative journalists in the geolocation of visual media quickly and accurately. Additionally, this work contributes experimental results demonstrating how the crowd can be utilized to support complex sensemaking tasks. Master of Science

Abstract:

According to reports from Reporters sans frontiers and Freedom House, the freedom of the press has declined during the recent years in the sub-Saharan country Tanzania. Using the human rights reports as an entry point, this study set out to investigate the working conditions for journalists in the capital de facto of Tanzania, Dar es Salaam. An important aim was to dig deeper and show the local and culturally specific conditions. The study supports that the press freedom, as well as the working conditions have declined during the last years for the journalists in Dar es Salaam. However, the study also shows that the new laws and government measures, described by the human rights reports as reducing the press freedom, is not considered by every journalist to be negative. The challenges differ among the corps of journalists, as their values of journalism differs. The greatest denominator among the informants was the high-degree of journalistic interventionism, directed at helping the society. In some cases, this took form as a practice of development journalism. The strong connections to the local community, the country and the religious affiliations are thought to contribute to these values. For journalists in private media, the press freedom was found to be the most acute problem, while for journalists in state-owned media it was economic issues. The press freedom was connected to the perceived job autonomy, and senior journalists and journalists working for international media were found to be more autonomous. Self-censorship was used by many in the private media sector as a tool to avoid both bureaucratic harassment from government, as well as violent repercussions. The main challenges included new restricting laws, economic issues which lead to the practice of brown envelopes, the parliament being located in Dodoma, gender-issues, scared sources and the advancement of social media. Theories and earlier research evolving from the values of journalism and journalism in Africa were used as tools to understand and compare with. The results are based on fieldwork conducted during a period of two months in the beginning of 2019, with qualitative interviews held with journalists in the city of Dar es Salaam.

Full text

Abstract:

John Buchan (1875-1940) has a literary reputation as a minor novelist, based mainly on his success as a popular fiction writer, the inventor of the spy thriller in his best-known novel, The Thirty-Nine Steps (1915). Although there has been considerably increased scholarly interest in his work in recent years, the perception that he is mainly a genre writer persists and has limited the success of attempts to move his literary reputation towards the academic mainstream. Other areas of his writing have received some recognition, but his uncollected journalism has remained a neglected aspect of his work, largely overlooked even by Buchan specialists. This thesis brings an academic focus to Buchan's uncollected journalism for the first time. It breaks new ground by examining the style, structure, and content of his articles and reviews, and argues that Buchan should be considered as an essayist of elegance and authority, an astute literary critic attuned to contemporary trends, and a wide-ranging cultural commentator on his times. The thesis shows that Buchan's uncollected journalism, in its volume and range, provides a major field for the additional research which is clearly required if Buchan's literary reputation is to be further enhanced. It aims to make a significant contribution by opening up this area of his work to future study in two entirely new ways. First, it contains an extensive catalogue of his uncollected journalism, over a thousand items in total, with each article categorised and summarised as an aid to future researchers, features which have never before been available. The catalogue also contains a hundred articles and reviews which have not been included in any previous bibliography. Secondly, it provides a selection of annotated articles which could form the basis of the first critical edition of Buchan's essays to be issued in order to promote further recognition of this aspect of his writing.

Abstract:

The present study was an investigation of the occupational structure of a national sport department in a public corporation. The goal was to determine whether occupational segregation was occurring, and if so what were the processes underlying this situation. Questionnaires were administered to the personnel of a public radio station (n = 23) and subsequently interviews (n = 14) were conducted with a sample of personnel from the department, including the positions of reporter, producer, executive producer and manager. Official documents, particularly those concerning employment equity from the CRTC, were also analyzed. It was found that occupational segregation is occurring in this department, both vertically and horizontally. The dual queue theory was adopted to explain the labour market dynamics operating to perpetuate differential employment opportunities for men and women in radio sport journalism. It was discovered that although highly qualified white women are currently at the top of this particular labour queue, it is mainly a result of pressure from two main factors: the fact that it is a public company regulated by the CRTC, and the move on the part of the personnel from jock journalism to investigative sport journalism. Barriers operating to perpetuate the fact that women do not consider sport journalism as a viable career opportunity include lack of access, lack of work experience, the jock environment, stereotyping, power dynamics, lack of sporting contacts and networks, lack of mentoring or training programs. Processes occurring to reduce women's access to radio sport journalism are contextualized within the wider society, and recommendations are made, including one emphasizing the necessity to conduct an industry-wide analysis of employment opportunities for men and women in the sport media.

This thesis explores Landmark Education, an American personal development company which claims to transform lives for the better. The purpose of this work is to analyse the pros and cons of various participants and professionals connected with Landmark Education. This work has been carried out as a piece of investigative journalism and reflects the principles of this field. Chapter one addresses contemporary criticisms of Landmark and outlines the main points of the investigation which will be analysed and debated in chapter three. Chapter two gives a historical background to the self-help and personal development realm that Landmark belongs to. This chapter is more informative in tone and provides an indepth discussion on est, the company to precede Landmark. Chapter three is the investigative component of this thesis and contains interviews of Landmark supporters and critics. These include former and current participants of Landmark Education, as well as professionals of clinical psychology and the personal coaching fields. This chapter primarily addresses issues connected with critical claims that Landmark is a cult. The thesis is accompanied by a supporting exegesis which outlines the relevant theoretical, historical, critical and design contexts and also seeks to defend both the applied research methodology and theoretical base.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the view of the ideal of objectivity in sports journalism and other factors that can effect a journalists terms to their journalistic ethic such as the commercialization, investigative journalism and their relationship to their sources. The purpose is further to investigate if these different factors differ on a national- or local level of sports journalism. For this study we have chosen the method of a qualitative interview, where six sports journalists and two news editors are included. The interviews have been deducted with help of an interview guide, which has been used the same way the journalists that’s been interview. This particular field of journalism studies is yet to be discovered in a bigger scale. Therefore, this study has used a great bit of earlier research and also three different theories to help us in answering the purpose of the study and our question formulation; News management, Media logic and the Swedish exchange-theory. The result of the study shows that there are some differences in how journalists on a national- and a local newspaper view the importance of investigative journalism, relationships with their sources and how they apply the ideal of objectivity in their role as a journalist. The study also shows that commercialization of the sports industry has an impact on sport journalism were several new actors such as public relation-experts and organizations want to effect the media and “sell” their product to the newspapers.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to examine if the freedom of information and thus also the freedom of expression in Sweden can be harmed if Swedish archives will start to identity control and register scholars who wants to take part private of archives in public archives. To find an answer, I have looked at the advantages and disadvantages of such registration and control. If a registration is introduced there is some thought about sort out and preservation and you can see if the principle of openness and thus freedom of expression can be damaged in such a registration. I have analysed and compared Swedish laws concerning the principle of openness and for archives as well as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and conducted semi-structured interviews with a lawyer, an archivist, and a journalist. I have concluded that it is possible for the Swedish National Archive to register who takes part in their individual archives, but it is uncertain how long this information can be preserved. Most of the informants believe that the principle of openness and thus freedom of expression can be damaged if control of identification is introduced. The journalist believes that the registered information can be used to map journalists and prevent them from accessing information in private archives. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka om offentlighetsprincipen och därmed också yttrandefriheten i Sverige kan skadas om svenska arkiv kommer att börja identitetskontrollera och registrera forskare som vill delta privat i arkiv i offentliga arkiv. För att hitta ett svar har jag tittat på fördelarna och nackdelarna med sådan registrering och kontroll. Om en registrering införs tänker man på sortering och bevarande och man kan se om principen om öppenhet och därmed yttrandefrihet kan skadas i en sådan registrering. Jag har analyserat och jämfört svenska lagar om principen om öppenhet och för arkiv samt EU: s allmänna dataskyddsförordning (GDPR) och genomfört halvstrukturerade intervjuer med en advokat, en arkivare och en journalist. Jag har kommit fram till att det är möjligt för Svenska Nationalarkivet att registrera vem som deltar i sina enskilda arkiv, men det är osäkert hur länge denna information kan bevaras. De flesta informanter tror att principen om öppenhet och därmed yttrandefrihet kan skadas om kontroll av identifiering införs. Journalisten tror att den registrerade informationen kan användas för att kartlägga journalister och hindra dem från att få tillgång till information i privata arkiv.

Today, the situation is challenging for the media groups that have printed papers. The printed newspapers subscribers are mainly aged 45-79 years. The informants of this study consider the paper magazine's future to be pessimistic. It is difficult to make the product attractive when the price rises for each year and the living habits change. Media groups are currently working on digital transformation. At the same time, there is a high demand for qualitative journalism. In times when anyone has the opportunity to practice journalistic work, readers want to be able to trust qualitative journalism.

Abstract:

This doctoral submission grew out of a series of long form documentaries that I wrote, produced, and directed between 1993 and the present. The films, which were broadcast on US television's PBS network, all deal with scientific, medical, or environmental issues that developed into prominent national and international controversies. DVDs and scripts of the seven programs are provided along with a detailed overview. The submission is organized as three projects and an overview. 1. Project One (discussed in chapters 3-7) consists of three documentaries: the first about a novel therapy for autism ; the second dealing with the alleged health effects of power line electromagnetic fields ; and the third focused on the silicone breast implant controversy. 2. Project Two (discussed in chapters 8-11) consists of programs on nuclear energy, Gulf War Syndrome, and genetically modified foods. 3. Project Three (discussed in chapters 12-14) features a two-hour special investigation of global warming. 4. The Overview, Communicating Controversy in the Mass Media not only provides an overarching analysis of the portfolio of films and the attendant theoretical issues, but also serves to summarize the works themselves. In the Project sections of the written overview (chapters 3-14), the analysis is interwoven with extracts from the various documentaries. This portfolio and overview tells the evolving story of a body of work at the intersection of documentary, investigative journalism and science. It reveals the journey of one producer who started out with an interest in unpacking complex controversies, but became increasingly fascinated with the psychological and political dimensions of these narratives. Whether a particular controversial belief holds up under scrutiny is undoubtedly important. But there are other fascinating questions: why do people adopt such beliefs in the first place; why do individuals cling to their beliefs in the face of contrary scientific evidence; and what roles do special interests and the media play in amplifying or attenuating the public's hopes and fears? This portfolio and overview, therefore, not only examine a series of high profile controversies, but go further by: explaining the process by which these topics were turned into documentaries; exploring the way humans analyze, perceive and communicate benefits and risks; and critically examining the validity and ethical standing of modern television journalism. This submission represents a significant contribution to knowledge in several ways. First this series of in-depth, original investigations of environmental and health controversies from one producer is unparalleled in broadcast journalism. Second, the overview's analysis synthesizes and extends a wide range of social science research on risk assessment, risk perception and risk communication and applies this research to the featured controversies and the media's role in them. Third, the portfolio and overview reveal how a blend of documentary, journalism and science is an especially effective way of advancing public understanding of and engagement with modern scientific controversies and goes on to suggest some exciting new directions for communicators. Finally, the case studies in this portfolio provide a basis of knowledge about how communicators can effectively use audiovisual media to navigate the world of risks and benefits that permeates many of society's most crucial policy dilemmas.

Abstract:

Normative professional journalism and the need to re-evaluate the structural social context of journalism practice and its role in emerging democracies has led to the increased scrutiny of journalists and their relationship to news sources. This study conceptualises the relationship between journalists and news sources as a dual process of consensus and conflict of interests in the newsgathering practice in Zambia, an emerging democracy. The study suggests that journalists actively pursue powerful individuals in society such as those in government, pressure groups and business as news sources who have been available and suitable in the past. Journalists’ view of society as bureaucratically organised and the short turn-around time of news production are among the organisational factors attributed to this tendency. This study adopts a sociological approach to investigate the journalist-news source relationship at The Post, in Zambia, by factoring in the perspectives of social organisation of newswork and political economy. Whereas the social organisation perspective focuses on the organisational and occupational demands of journalists, political economy reinforces the larger context of journalist-news source interaction in a society. Additionally, the social constructivist theory, which is premised around the idea that the agenda and content of journalism production, is in part a product of non-journalistic social factors is useful in understanding the various influences on the relationship. The study investigates the nature of the journalist-news source relationship using two diametrically opposed views – the dominant (exchange) and competitive (adversarial) paradigms. This is aimed at establishing whether the relationship is an exchange or adversarial. While the latter relationship is common in liberal democracies where the media are seen as part of elite structures with considerable power on their own, the thinking is that inequalities in resource distribution and political power generate social tensions in developing countries that require media to be carefully managed. Using qualitative semi-structured interviews and observation methods, this study establishes that while the adversarial role has an attraction for the journalists investigated, the exchange model comes closest to describing the nature of relationship they share with their news sources.

Abstract:

This study investigates how journalists experience economic and political pressures on their ethical decisions at the Nation Media Group (NMG) conglomerate in Kenya. The study uses qualitative semi- structured interviews to examine how journalists experience these pressures on their professional ethics as they make their daily decisions. Grounded in the critical political economy of the media tradition, the findings of the study indicate that economic and political pressures from advertisers, shareholders’ interests, the profit motive and the highly ethnicised political environment in Kenya largely compromise the ethical decisions of journalists. The study draws on the work done by Herman and Chomsky in their ‘Propaganda Model’ in which they propose ‘filters’ as the analytical indicators of the forms that political and economic pressures that journalists experience may take. The study explores the ways in which journalists experience these pressures, how they respond to the pressures and the ways in which their responses may compromise their journalism ethics. The findings indicate that aside from the pressures from the primary five filters outlined in the Propaganda Model, ethnicity in Kenyan newsrooms is a key ‘filter’ that may compromise the ethical decisions of journalists at the NMG. The study therefore argues that there is a need to modify the explanatory power of the Propaganda Model when applying it to the Kenyan context to include ethnicity as a ‘sixth filter’ that should be understood in relation to the five primary filters. From the findings, it would seem that the government is no longer a major threat to journalists’ freedom and responsibility in Kenya. Market forces and ethnicity in newsrooms pose the greatest threat to journalists’ freedom and responsibility. The study therefore calls for a revision of the normative framework within which journalists’ and media performance in Kenya is assessed. As the study findings show, the prevailing liberal- democratic model ignores the commercial and economic threats the ‘free market’ poses to journalism ethics as well as ethnicity in newsrooms and only focuses on the media- government relations, treating the government as the major threat to media freedom.

Abstract:

Television news is a key provider of information within British society, investing those who produce it with power to determine what is 'important' and 'interesting'. In this context I set out, through observation and interview in the newsrooms of Channel Four, HTV West and BBC I Midlands Today, to gain insight into how journalists think and behave when selecting and constructing news stories. I sought to examine the effects of routine practices and the extent to which reporters and editors reflect on their decision making. In addition, I conducted a close reading of the headline item from the bulletin produced in each newsroom on the same day as my visit, in order to draw comparison between what editors and reporters articulate as important in a newsroom setting, and what appears to be the case in manifest content. While considering a wide range of influential factors, an overriding objective was to assess the specific role of 'news value'. Do journalists consciously apply individual criteria? Are newsrooms organised so that editors and reporters routinely privilege certain subjects as 'news' and not others? Is there a journalistic tendency to 'notice', perceive and 'frame' events as a set of familiar types? In examining these questions, special attention was given to the conceptual model developed by Galtung & Ruge (1965), in order to assess its relevance in the 'real' newsroom environment. My findings suggested that journalists do not openly reflect on newsworthiness in a systematic way. The complex task of preparing a story ready for broadcast was achieved in a manner that was almost automatic. Attitudes and behaviour appeared to be driven by routines, with decisions made quickly and with minimal outward reflection. In conversation, the importance of visual impact and drama, and an emphasis on negativity, emerged as being significant, although subsequent analysis of output suggested that other criteria may also be influential, for example a concentration on 'elite' subject matter. Overall, however, there seemed to be a lack of ability or willingness to discuss selection in a conceptual manner and newsworthiness was explained and 'justified' by reference to actual examples of stories or subject matter.

Abstract:

La carrière d’I.F. Stone (1907‐1989) le place en témoin privilégié des grands événements du XXe siècle. Par‐delà le sacro‐saint principe d’objectivité comme neutralité, ce journaliste politique indépendant s’implique personnellement dans les grandes causes radicales de la gauche américaine et internationale, d’abord au sein de la Old Left des années 1930 et 1940, puis contre le maccarthysme et la guerre froide dans les années 1950, et enfin, aux côtés de la jeunesse radicale de la New Left dans les années 1960 et 1970. À la fois observateur et participant, Stone favorise une méthode d’investigation proche de celle des muckrakers du tournant du XXe siècle, en particulier dans les pages de son propre journal I.F. Stone’s Weekly (1953‐1971), dans le but de révéler les discours mensongers du pouvoir et de dynamiser le débat démocratique. À travers l’étude du parcours d’I.F. Stone, cette thèse revêt un double enjeu : il s’agit d’abord de rendre compte d’une carrière restée en marge des récits historiques et marquée à la fois par le radicalisme et l’indépendance. Puis, parce qu’elle est jalonnée d’étapes constitutives de l’expérience radicale, l’historicisation de ce parcours permet de restaurer les aspects de continuité et de cohérence d’un engagement à la fois individuel et collectif, bien souvent présenté de façon tronquée. Grâce à une perspective enrichie par l’observation des réseaux militants proches de Stone, l’expérience formatrice des années 1930 résonne jusque dans les années 1960, confirmant au passage l’existence d’une résistance politique opposée au maccarthysme et au conformisme des années 1950 The career of I.F. Stone (1907‐1989) placed him at the center of the great events of the 20th century. Questioning American journalism’s equation of objectivity with neutrality, this independent political reporter was personally involved in all the great left‐wing, radical struggles both in the US and internationally. He was part of the Old Left of the 1930s and 1940s, an opponent of McCarthyism and the Cold War in the 1950s, and finally stood alongside the radical youth of the New Left in the 1960s and 1970s. Playing the role both of an observer and of a participant, Stone favored an investigation method similar to that used by the muckrakers at the beginning of the 20th century, especially in his own newspaper, I.F. Stone’s Weekly (1953‐1971). His goal was to expose the government’s fibs and lies, and energize the democratic debate. By studying I.F. Stone’s trajectory, this dissertation attempts to chart a career that has been kept on the margins of historical discourse, and which was characterized by both radicalism and independence. The dissertation also places Stone’s contribution in the constitutive stages of the radical experience in the U.S. The historicization of Stone’s career allows us to restore key elements of continuity and consistency to a set of political commitments which were both individual and collective, and often depicted in a disconnected manner. Our perspective is enriched by the analysis of militant networks Stone related to, revealing that the formative experience of the 1930s continued to resonate through the 1960s, marking a political resistance to McCarthyism and the conformism of the 1950s

Abstract:

Thesis (MPhil)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003. ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Financial reporting is one of the most vulnerable sectors of journalism for the occurrence of possible unethical conduct. Financial journalists handle news with financial value and have access to privileged market information which confront them with numerous ethical problems, namely the use of press releases, the influence of public relations, the use of financial jargon, reporting on shares and the securities market, journalists' dependence on analysts' opinions and recommendations, the receipt of freebies and insider trading. This assignment gives an overview of the incidence of unethical conduct in financial reporting in South Africa. Ethical principles relevant for financial reporting, namely accuracy, truth and deception, fairness, objectivity and conflict of interest are analysed, discussed and illustrated with incidences of possible unethical behaviour in financial reporting. The research method comprised the scrutiny of business sections of newspapers and articles in finance magazines, articles from the World Wide Web, as well as sources on media ethics and business journalism. Accuracy in financial reporting is a necessity for sound journalism. The impact of press releases on accuracy in financial reporting was investigated, but did not yield sufficient proof that they necessarily lead to inaccurate reporting. Financial journalists' reliance on the opinions and recommendations of business analysts, however, revealed a significant contribution to inaccurate reporting. A chore journalistic value, truth establishes trust between the media and the public. Financial reporting should promote understanding of the relevant facts, not only for readers with a keen interest in financial matters, but also for the average audience. South African financial journalists use excessive jargon, arcane financial data and affected language which may confuse and even mislead the general reader. Share price reporting in South Africa is generally factual and the investigation did not yield any incidences of share punting among financial journalists. Analysts' reports, however, pose a serious threat for media independence as financial journalists rely on their expertise. Conflicts of interest arise when there is conflict between a journalist's professional loyalties and outside interests. An investigation into possible insider trading in South African financial journalism did not yield any proof of such incidences. The receipt of freebies, however, remains a grey area because most codes of conduct of South African news agencies only prohibit the receipt of freebies which are of more than nominal value. Recommendations include advanced journalism training courses which will enhance journalists' business writing skills and knowledge of basic Economics and finance, columns in financial publications which explain financial jargon and a greater emphasis on media ethics. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Finansiële verslaggewing is een van die mees vatbare sektore vir onetiese optrede in die joernalistiek. Finansiële verslaggewers het toegang tot vertroulike markinligting en doen beriggewing wat finansiële waarde het. Daarom word hulle dikwels gekonfronteer met verskeie etiese probleme, naamlik die gebruik van persvrystellings, die invloed van skakelbeamptes en woordvoerders, die gebruik van finansiële jargon, aandele-beriggewing, die steun op analiste se menings en aanbevelings asook die ontvang van geskenke ("freebies") en die bemarking, aanbeveling of koop en verkoop van aandele. Hierdie werkstuk gee 'n oorsig van die voorkoms van onetiese gedrag in finansiële verslaggewing in Suid-Afrika. Etiese beginsels wat betrekking het op finansiële verslaggewing, naamlik noukeurigheid, waarheid en misleiding, regverdigheid, objektiwiteit en botsende belange word ondersoek, bespreek en toegelig met die voorkoms van moontlike onetiese gedrag in finansiële verslaggewing. Die navorsingsmetode het berus op die bestudering van sake-bylae van koerante, artikels en saketydskrifte, artikels wat van die Internet verkry is, en bronne oor media-etiek en finansiële verslaggewing. Noukeurigheid in finansiële verslaggewing is noodsaaklik vir goeie joernalistiek. Die ondersoek na die invloed van persvrystellings op die noukeurigheid van finansiële verslaggewing het nie voldoende bewyse gelewer dat noukeurigheid ingeboet word nie. Dat finansiële verslaggewers egter steun op die mening en aanbevelings van analiste het getoon dat analiste se menings en aanbevelings dikwels tot onakkurate verslaggewing lei. Die waarheid is 'n kernbeginsel in joernalistiek en bewerkstellig vertroue tussen die media en die publiek. Finansiële verslaggewing behoort 'n begrip van die toepaslike feite te bevorder - nie alleenlik vir lesers wat belangstel in finansiële aangeleenthede nie, maar ook vir die gemiddelde leser. Finansiële verslaggewers in Suid-Afrika gebruik oormatige jargon, ingewikkelde finansiële data en geaffekteerde taal wat die gemiddelde leser kan verwar en mislei. Aandele-beriggewing in Suid-Afrika is oor die algemeen feitelik en die ondersoek het nie getoon dat finansiële verslaggewers aandele bemark of aanbeveel nie. Analiste se verslae bedreig egter die onafhanklikheid van die media, omdat finansiële verslaggewers steun op hul kennis. Botsende belange kom voor indien konflik ontstaan tussen 'n joernalis se professionele pligte en belange van buite. 'n Ondersoek na die moontlikheid dat Suid-Afrikaanse joernaliste hul eie aandele bemark of aanbeveel het egter geen bewyse van dergelike gevalle opgelewer nie. Die ontvang van geskenke ("freebies") is egter 'n moeilike kwessie, omdat die meeste gedragskodes van Suid- Afrikaanse nuusagentskappe slegs die ontvang van "freebies" verbied indien dit 'n nominale waarde oorskry. Aanbevelings sluit in gevorderde joernalistieke opleidingsprogramme wat joernaliste se finansiële skryfvermoë en kennis van Ekonomie en finansies verskerp, rubrieke in finansiële publikasies wat finansiële jargon omskryf asook 'n beklemtoning van die belangrikheid van mediaetiek.

This was done by concentrating on the result of the analysis of the use of adverbs in a parallel corpus of Portuguese and English, original and translated texts while observing some rules which are in the Manuals of Style and Writing of Newspapers in Portuguese (Folha de São Paulo) and English (New York Times). For the sake of organization and selection of terms, the computer program WordSmithTools is used. The results of this study is supposed to help both translators and translation teachers when evaluating, correcting, editing, analyzing, studying or teaching about translated texts. The results also promote some questioning about the translating act and the journalistic genre in Brazil and in the US. O principal objetivo deste estudo é mostrar como a linguagem direta do jornalismo é expressa de maneira diferente tanto em português como em inglês e também mostrar como os tradutores lidam com estas diferenças quando elas realmente aparecem, e se os tradutores contemplam verdadeiramente estas diferenças. Isto foi feito focalizando o resultado da analise do uso dos advérbios em um corpus paralelo de textos originais e traduzidos em português e inglês ao se observar algumas regras encontradas no Manual de Estilo de Jornais em português (Folha de São Paulo) e inglês (New York Times). Para efeito de organização e seleção de termos, o programa de computador WordSmithTools foi usado. Os resultados deste estudo poderão ajudar tanto tradutores como professores de tradução ao avaliar, corrigir, editar, analisar, estudar ou ensinar a respeito de textos traduzidos. Os resultados também poderão promover algum questionamento a respeito do ato tradutório e sobre o gênero jornalístico no Brasil e nos EUA.

Abstract:

Dissertação apresentada à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Ciências da Comunicação, especialização em Tecnologias da Comunicação. Este estudo procura refletir a reportagem além do fato, no âmbito do jornalismo investigativo de TV no Brasil. Uma perspectiva da notícia em imagens é traçada através do panorama da história da televisão brasileira, em que matérias de denúncias ganharam força somente após o período da Ditadura Militar, momento, também, que o veículo já havia estabelecido uma linguagem própria. As novas possibilidades advindas do desenvolvimento das tecnologias são relacionadas com as mudanças no modo de se fazer jornalismo, principalmente, com a chegada da Internet nas redações, a qual alterou a rotina de trabalho, desde a apuração dos fatos até a veiculação da notícia. Os desafios enfrentados pelo repórter, não só na conceituação, mas também em relação ao exercício do jornalismo investigativo, levam à diferenciação do papel da reportagem e do repórter para os telespectadores. Através de seis grandes reportagens da Rede Globo, as quais impactaram de alguma forma o público do país, métodos, formas e processos de trabalho jornalísticos são investigados. Os resultados alcançados mostram que grandes reportagens precisam ser divididas em séries de reportagens, principalmente, quando exibidas em um telejornal diário, programa sem muito tempo disponível para uma única matéria, e que as técnicas do jornalismo investigativo vão desde o uso de microcâmeras escondidas até efeitos de distorção da imagem, quando, por exemplo, um personagem não quer identificar-se. This study attempts to reflect the story beyond the fact, as part of investigative journalism on TV in Brazil. An overview of news in images is drawn through the panorama of the brazilian television history, in which subjects of complaint earned strength only after the military dictatorship period, when this media also had established its own language. The new opportunities resulting from technologies developments are related to changes in the way of doing journalism, especially with the arrival of the Internet in newsrooms, which changed the work routine, from finding the facts to publication of the news. The challenges faced by reporters, not only in concept, but also in relation to the exercise of investigative journalism, induce to differentiation of the reporter function and story for the viewers. Through six major reports of Rede Globo, which impacted in some way the public of the country, journalistic methods, forms and work processes are investigated. The reached results show that major reports need to be divided into a series of stories, especially when viewed on a daily television news program, which do not have much time to a single subject, and the techniques of investigative journalism fluctuate from the use of hidden small cameras until distortion effects of the image when, for example,characters do not want to identify themselves.

Made available in DSpace on 2016-08-03T12:30:39Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Placa 2-td.pdf: 823821 bytes, checksum: 2d7098ae3f22de5fb8860878394ad161 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2004-03-31 The present paper proposes to highlight the importance of the investigative report and show the worth that must be observed in the commitment of a TV reporter s ethical professional performance, capable of changing the course of Brazil recent political history. The practical of the authentic journalism turns out to be converting. That is what happens with the performance of the reporter Caco Barcellos. He proposed himself to chase a single story for more than a year and, in the end, disclose the truth hidden during 30 years by the public authority. Such report triggered the reparation of a social injustice done against a brazilian young student. The strength of a report presented in a TV news is undeniable, mainly because of the penetration power of TV in all social layers as news media. Its importance rises significantly considering the fact that the report was presented in a series of three consecutive days on Jornal Nacional and because this program is the leader in audience in Rede Globo. The investment of this broadcasting station in a report like the one presented in this paper depends fundamentally by the presence of a reporter profoundly identified with the fight against social injustice. This is the profile of Caco Barcellos. He grew up in a poor outskirts of a big city and since very young, he revolted himself against the police attitude, that discriminate the common citizen and privileges the powerful ones. He transformed this accumulated angry into effective actions through revealing investigative report of social injustice committed every day. In moments when the space was short for the size of the report he wanted to broadcast, Caco published books and gained prizes but also faced lawsuits, moved by policemen who intended to destroy Caco s professional life, a reporter who dared to work seriously and find the documents that proved the abuses practiced against innocents, brutally murdered. The result is a exemplary professional performance, with a work method worthy to be followed, reflecting in the series of reports that dismantled the fake created by the Army and that can be considered a true journalism lesson. Destacar a importância da reportagem investigativa, e mostrar o valor que deve ser observado no empenho da atuação profissional ética de um repórter de televisão, capaz de mudar o rumo da história política recente do Brasil, é o que se propõe o presente trabalho. A prática do jornalismo autêntico demonstra ser transformadora. É o que acontece com a atuação do repórter Caco Barcellos. Ele se propôs a perseguir uma história por mais de um ano e, ao final, mostrar uma verdade escondida durante 30 anos pelo poder público. Com tal reportagem, possibilitou a reparação de uma injustiça social cometida contra uma jovem estudante brasileira. A força da reportagem apresentada num telejornal é incontestável, em razão do potencial que representa a televisão na penetração em todas as camadas da sociedade como veículo de informação. Sendo a reportagem apresentada em série de três dias consecutivos pelo Jornal Nacional, eleva seu peso significativamente, devido à liderança de audiência do telejornal da Rede Globo. O investimento da emissora numa reportagem como a apresentada neste trabalho depende fundamentalmente da presença de um repórter profundamente identificado com a luta contra a injustiça social. E é este o perfil de Caco Barcellos. Ele cresceu na periferia pobre de uma metrópole, e desde muito cedo se revoltou contra a ação policial que discrimina o cidadão comum e privilegia os poderosos. Conseguiu transformar a raiva acumulada em ações efetivas através da reportagem investigativa reveladora da injustiça social cometida diariamente. Quando o espaço era pequeno para o tamanho do que tinha para reportar, Caco lançou livros, ganhou prêmios e enfrentou processos judiciais, movidos por policiais interessados em destruir a vida profissional do repórter que ousou trabalhar sério e encontrar os documentos que provavam os desmandos praticados contra inocentes, friamente assassinados. O resultado é uma atuação exemplar, com um método de trabalho digno de ser seguido, refletindo-se na série de reportagens que desmontou uma farsa montada pelo exército, e que pode ser considerada como uma verdadeira aula de jornalismo.

Abstract:

This thesis explores the relationship between journalism as a specific type of socio-cultural practice and the production of meaning in public discussion. Through a case study of newspaper coverage of the issue of genetic engineering in New Zealand (2001-2002), it specifically examines journalists' newsgathering methods, their use of sources and their story-telling frames, and analyses how the news media uses the norm of objectivity to shape public debate on contentious issues. The study argues that elements and structures of journalistic practice both determine a newspaper's ability to address events and issues in a meaningful way and define a newspaper's potential to create a space for public debate. Drawing on field theory, discourse studies and the sociology of journalism, the thesis develops a new operational framework for investigation of journalistic practice by looking at the ideal of objectivity as a method of news gathering, an account of representing reality, and an attitude towards the reality so constructed. This framework is applied in the case study of newspaper coverage of the GE issue where four components of journalistic practice are analysed: journalistic form, transparency of newsgathering, sources and frame. Using content analysis, discourse analysis, interviews and a survey, the thesis explores the relationship between journalistic norms around these elements of the practice and the discursive potential of the news text to represent, interpret and construct reality. The findings of this study highlight the tension between outmoded forms of practice and the complexity of issues in the public domain. The analysis reveals how the norm of objectivity, originally developed as a shield for the defence of the autonomy of the profession to mediate reality, became, in the case of media coverage of genetic engineering, an obstacle in extending journalism's potential to contribute to public debate. As a method, objectivity failed to provide a set of transparent protocols for the representation of the issue in the public arena; as an account, it reflected the impossibility of separating 'facts' from 'views' and positions of detachment from those of partisanship; and as an attitude, objectivity was endangered by the increasing power of economic imperatives in the production of news. Following this analysis, the thesis explores the influence of journalistic norms on public debate by looking at journalism as a text, as a discursive practice and as a field of cultural production. The GE issue, constructed in the New Zealand press as a key component of the 'knowledge economy', drew attention to the dynamics between the economic imperatives and professional standards of the journalistic field. The objectivity norm was reduced in news reports to reporting 'what people say' rather than what the issue or argument meant, which led to a simplification of the genetic engineering issue in the public domain. The study concludes with the call for a re-examination of the journalistic field in light of the press's incapacity to challenge the status quo and map the social world for its readers.

Abstract:

Since the early 2000s, a largely Internet-based network of independent news operations has emerged focused on small geographic areas in the UK, often run by non-professional journalists. ‘Hyperlocal’ journalism seems to have captured the imagination of academics and policy-makers, with some arguing that it has the potential to fill the democratic deficit caused by the decline of mainstream local newspapers. Attention has largely focused on the journalistic values of these websites rather than their wider cultural value, with relatively little recourse to primary research in the UK context. This thesis addresses both of those aspects by drawing on a range of data: a large-scale overview of the sector, three case study accounts of hyperlocal news operations, and an analysis of interviews with practitioners. The research finds that hyperlocal news operations are spread across the UK and collectively produce an impressive number of news stories. In that sense, they play a useful role in local news ecologies and their independence marks them out as an alternative to an increasingly consolidated mainstream local news sector. Hyperlocal news operations are gaining legitimacy through engagement with audiences on social media and through recognition by other news media. The thesis also finds that the hyperlocal journalist is often motivated by a desire to redress mainstream media’s representation of their locality or by a single campaign issue. Hyperlocal journalists traverse both the digital ‘beat’ and the real-world ‘beat’, using reciprocal journalism practices in order to build a community around their service. However, many services are precariously placed as the journalists exploit their own labour and avoid engaging fully with issues of economic sustainability. Taking a case study approach, the thesis explores the working practices and environments of three hyperlocal news operations in detail, including looking at audience engagement. It finds further evidence of these issues of precarity, making the potential of sustaining hyperlocal operations difficult. However, the case study accounts also highlight the value of focusing on everyday aspects of community life and how that can help build audiences and enable citizens to become participants in content creation and distribution. Finally, the thesis argues that hyperlocal can play a more vital role in the UK’s local news landscape should the right conditions be created by policy-makers to create a more level regulatory playing-field.

Abstract:

À mesure que la production de textes numériques croît exponentiellement, un besoin grandissant d’analyser des corpus de textes se manifeste dans beaucoup de domaines d’application, tant ces corpus constituent des sources inépuisables d’information et de connaissance partagées. Ainsi proposons-nous dans cette thèse une nouvelle approche de visualisation analytique pour l’analyse de corpus textuels, mise en œuvre pour les besoins spécifiques du journalisme d’investigation. Motivées par les problèmes et les tâches identifiés avec une journaliste d’investigation professionnelle, les visualisations et les interactions ont été conçues suivant une méthodologie centrée utilisateur, impliquant l’utilisateur durant tout le processus de développement. En l’occurrence, les journalistes d’investigation formulent des hypothèses, explorent leur sujet d’investigation sous tous ses angles, à la recherche de sources multiples étayant leurs hypothèses de travail. La réalisation de ces tâches, très fastidieuse lorsque les corpus sont volumineux, requiert l’usage de logiciels de visualisation analytique se confrontant aux problématiques de recherche abordées dans cette thèse. D’abord, la difficulté de donner du sens à un corpus textuel vient de sa nature non structurée. Nous avons donc recours au modèle vectoriel et son lien étroit avec l’hypothèse distributionnelle, ainsi qu’aux algorithmes qui l’exploitent pour révéler la structure sémantique latente du corpus. Les modèles de sujets et les algorithmes de biclustering sont efficaces pour l’extraction de sujets de haut niveau. Ces derniers correspondent à des groupes de documents concernant des sujets similaires, chacun représenté par un ensemble de termes extraits des contenus textuels. Une telle structuration par sujet permet notamment de résumer un corpus et de faciliter son exploration. Nous proposons une nouvelle visualisation, une carte pondérée des sujets, qui dresse une vue d’ensemble des sujets de haut niveau. Elle permet d’une part d’interpréter rapidement les contenus grâce à de multiples nuages de mots, et d’autre part, d’apprécier les propriétés des sujets telles que leur taille relative et leur proximité sémantique. Bien que l’exploration des sujets de haut niveau aide à localiser des sujets d’intérêt ainsi que leur voisinage, l’identification de faits précis, de points de vue ou d’angles d’analyse, en lien avec un événement ou une histoire, nécessite un niveau de structuration plus fin pour représenter des variantes de sujet. Cette structure imbriquée révélée par Bimax, une méthode de biclustering basée sur des motifs avec chevauchement, capture au sein des biclusters les co-occurrences de termes partagés par des sous-ensembles de documents pouvant dévoiler des faits, des points de vue ou des angles associés à des événements ou des histoires communes. Cette thèse aborde les problèmes de visualisation de biclusters avec chevauchement en organisant les biclusters terme-document en une hiérarchie qui limite la redondance des termes et met en exergue les parties communes et distinctives des biclusters. Nous avons évalué l’utilité de notre logiciel d’abord par un scénario d’utilisation doublé d’une évaluation qualitative avec une journaliste d’investigation. En outre, les motifs de co-occurrence des variantes de sujet révélées par Bima. sont déterminés par la structure de sujet englobante fournie par une méthode d’extraction de sujet. Cependant, la communauté a peu de recul quant au choix de la méthode et son impact sur l’exploration et l’interprétation des sujets et de ses variantes. Ainsi nous avons conduit une expérience computationnelle et une expérience utilisateur contrôlée afin de comparer deux méthodes d’extraction de sujet. D’un côté Coclu. est une méthode de biclustering disjointe, et de l’autre, hirarchical Latent Dirichlet Allocation (hLDA) est un modèle de sujet probabiliste dont les distributions de probabilité forment une structure de bicluster avec chevauchement. (...) As the production of digital texts grows exponentially, a greater need to analyze text corpora arises in various domains of application, insofar as they constitute inexhaustible sources of shared information and knowledge. We therefore propose in this thesis a novel visual analytics approach for the analysis of text corpora, implemented for the real and concrete needs of investigative journalism. Motivated by the problems and tasks identified with a professional investigative journalist, visualizations and interactions are designed through a user-centered methodology involving the user during the whole development process. Specifically, investigative journalists formulate hypotheses and explore exhaustively the field under investigation in order to multiply sources showing pieces of evidence related to their working hypothesis. Carrying out such tasks in a large corpus is however a daunting endeavor and requires visual analytics software addressing several challenging research issues covered in this thesis. First, the difficulty to make sense of a large text corpus lies in its unstructured nature. We resort to the Vector Space Model (VSM) and its strong relationship with the distributional hypothesis, leveraged by multiple text mining algorithms, to discover the latent semantic structure of the corpus. Topic models and biclustering methods are recognized to be well suited to the extraction of coarse-grained topics, i.e. groups of documents concerning similar topics, each one represented by a set of terms extracted from textual contents. We provide a new Weighted Topic Map visualization that conveys a broad overview of coarse-grained topics by allowing quick interpretation of contents through multiple tag clouds while depicting the topical structure such as the relative importance of topics and their semantic similarity. Although the exploration of the coarse-grained topics helps locate topic of interest and its neighborhood, the identification of specific facts, viewpoints or angles related to events or stories requires finer level of structuration to represent topic variants. This nested structure, revealed by Bimax, a pattern-based overlapping biclustering algorithm, captures in biclusters the co-occurrences of terms shared by multiple documents and can disclose facts, viewpoints or angles related to events or stories. This thesis tackles issues related to the visualization of a large amount of overlapping biclusters by organizing term-document biclusters in a hierarchy that limits term redundancy and conveys their commonality and specificities. We evaluated the utility of our software through a usage scenario and a qualitative evaluation with an investigative journalist. In addition, the co-occurrence patterns of topic variants revealed by Bima. are determined by the enclosing topical structure supplied by the coarse-grained topic extraction method which is run beforehand. Nonetheless, little guidance is found regarding the choice of the latter method and its impact on the exploration and comprehension of topics and topic variants. Therefore we conducted both a numerical experiment and a controlled user experiment to compare two topic extraction methods, namely Coclus, a disjoint biclustering method, and hierarchical Latent Dirichlet Allocation (hLDA), an overlapping probabilistic topic model. The theoretical foundation of both methods is systematically analyzed by relating them to the distributional hypothesis. The numerical experiment provides statistical evidence of the difference between the resulting topical structure of both methods. The controlled experiment shows their impact on the comprehension of topic and topic variants, from analyst perspective. (...)

Abstract:

The aim of the study was to examine the news coverage surrounding Stockholm City Theatre’s former CEO Benny Fredriksson during the metoo-movement, from the time of the accusations against him until a time after his death. The questions examined were: How is Benny Fredriksson represented at the time of the publishing of the accusations and at the time of his death? How are the anonymous witnesses and the journalism represented? How does the representation of victims and perpetrators change after the death of Benny Fredriksson? What are the differences and similarities in the reporting of Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter? To analyze this, we made a discourse analysis of 12 articles from Aftonbladet and 13 articles from Dagens Nyheter. The results showed that the roles of all the characters change during the coverage. At the time of the publishing of the accusations, Benny Fredriksson is represented as an evil dictator that harasses his employees at Stockholm City Theatre. After his death, Benny Fredriksson is represented as a victim of circumstances, helpless and full of anxiety. At first, the witnesses are represented as scared, helpless victims. At the end of the coverage the representation has changed, and the victims are instead represented as perpetrators that are accused of lying. The journalism goes from being represented as investigative journalism to being represented as a media hunt that killed Benny Fredriksson. Overall, Aftonbladet is more defending of the witnesses and the journalism while Dagens Nyheter is more defending of Benny Fredriksson. The study shows that a death can affect the news coverage and consequently how the characters are represented.

Abstract:

America’s legacy media institutions, particularly print newspapers, experienced transformational change from 2005 through 2014. The Internet’s rise as an advertising competitor, coupled with an historic economic downturn beginning in 2007, led to crippling financial hardship. In response, many newspapers slashed budgets, staff, and content. These trends raise lasting concerns about the vitality of American journalism. Previous research documents the industry’s financial woes, explores implications for its future, and proposes reforms. This study contributes to the literature by examining how news content changed during this unique period. Specifically, it assesses how state government reporting by six U.S. publications—California’s The Sacramento Bee and Los Angeles Times, Florida’s Tallahassee Democrat and Tampa Bay Times, and Pennsylvania’s The Philadelphia Inquirer and The Patriot-News—fared from 2005-14. A systematic content analysis of more than 4,000 articles measured two key indicators of journalistic strength over time: (1) the volume of in-depth news articles, and (2) the amount of investigative coverage. The research shows that across the six outlets, in-depth news pieces declined 30 percent from 2005-14, and investigative coverage dropped 17 percent. Half of the outlets experienced three or more consecutive years without any investigative coverage of state government. Below these topline trends, however, was a great deal of variation by outlet and year. These findings empirically support what media scholars and observers alike have suspected: The financial crises of the preceding decade diluted news content. More importantly, they underpin concerns that powerful actors are making critical choices on behalf of citizens with weaker media watchdogs holding them accountable.

Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003. ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Govemment and the media are in the process of establishing South Africa's first Presidential Press Corps (PPC) based on the White House Press Corps in the United States of America. The need for a body like the Presidential Press Corps (PPC) has become increasingly evident as the recent relationship between the South African president and this country's press can only be characterised as poor. The establishment of the PPC potentially presents an ethical dilemma though due to various factors. A joumalist can only serve the public with the most comprehensive and accurate news when his or her finger is on the pulse of events that take place within the decision-making bodies. However, being so close to those in power may seriously threaten journalistic independence. This dilemma would be discussed in detail in this assignment. In May 200 I, the troubled relationship between Mbeki and the media was tackled at an Indaba between the South African National Editor's Forum (SANEF) and cabinet at Sun City. The crux and outcome of these discussions are set forth in The lf/oy Fo/wOld, a report prepared by those attending the Indaba. The establishment of the PPC is one of eight joint government and media initiatives outlined in this report. Although there is overwhelming support for the Pl'C, there is concern that the Pl'C members would be censored, manipulated and controlled by government as a result of their proximity. The Freedom of Expression Institute (FXI) believes the implications are far reaching and pose a serious threat to a free press. This first group of Pl'C journalists is going where no other has gone before in this country's history. They are however facing a daunting task, as the arena they are entering is fraught with novelties, challenges, obstacles and temptations. This assignment will examine the media's role in a democracy, the challenges of far closer cooperation between the media and government, the ethical dilemma potentially presented by the Pl'C as well as ways to ensure as far as possible, an ethical and professional relationship between government and the corps's members. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die regenng en die media is in die proses om Suid-Afrika se eerste Presidensiele Perskorps (PPK) te stig. Die konsep is geskoei op die van die Wit Huis Perskorps in die Verenigde State van Amerika. 'n Dringende behoefte bestaan in Suid-Afrika aan 'n liggaam soos die PPK aangesien dit duidelik geword het dat die verhouding tussen die president en die media nie na wense is nie. Die stigting van die PPK kan egter weens verskeie faktore eties-problematies wees. Joernaliste kan die publiek slegs voorsien van akkurate nuus indien hulle vingers op die polsslag van gebeure binne die land se besluitnemende liggame is. Joernalistieke onafhanklikheid kan egter in gedrang kom indien die verhouding tussen die "waghond" en die regering te intiem raak. Die PPK-Iede sal na verwagting weens gereelde kontak 'n veel hegter verhouding met die president he as wat die geval is met ander joemaliste. Die vertroebelde verhouding tussen die media en president Thabo Mbeki is in Mei 200 1 bespreek tydens 'n lndaba by Sun City. Een van die inisiatiewe waarop daar ooreengekom is in 'n poging om die probleme aan te pak, is die stigting van die PPK. Die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Redakteursforum en die regering hoop dat die korps sal bydra tot 'n vryer vloei van inligting asook tot 'n beter verstandbouding tussen die regering en die media. Hoewel daar oorweldigende steun is vir die PPK, is daar ook vrese dat die korps se lede gemanupileer en beheer sal word deur die kabinet.Die eerste groep PPK-lede gaan baanbrekerswerk verrig, maar die pad voor hulle is onbekend en vol potensiele gevare. Die uitdagings, slaggate sowel as maniere hoe etiese probleme oorkom kan word, word in hierdie werkstuk bespreek.

Abstract:

En los últimos años, el periodismo deportivo ha ido ganando protagonismo y espacio dentro de los medios de comunicación peruanos; sin embargo, muchas veces el trabajo realizado por los diarios deportivos ha dejado sensaciones de que realmente no se lleva a cabo un trabajo riguroso en cuanto a la investigación. A raíz de esto, se decidió abordar el caso de uno de los diarios deportivos nacionales más representativos en el mercado actual, el Diario Líbero. Este trabajo busca identificar si se aplican los recursos de investigación y de qué manera se usan en el periodismo deportivo diario peruano. Para esto, se utilizó una metodología cualitativa y se hizo un seguimiento al diario durante 7 días. Así mismo, se diseñó un instrumento a partir de 3 categorías de análisis que nos permitió identificar qué recursos se utilizaban y de qué manera. También, se llevó a cabo una entrevista al director del medio de comunicación para conocer su versión y poder contrastar las observaciones con lo que el encargado del diario menciona. Una vez finalizada la investigación, se llegó a la conclusión de que los diarios deportivos peruanos sí presentan el uso de recursos de investigación; sin embargo, su aplicación no es rigurosa ni sistemática. Así mismo, no se llega a la profundización necesaria y muchos recursos tienen una aplicación parcial. La inmediatez es la prioridad dentro del trabajo del periodista deportivo y sus textos así lo reflejan. In recent years, sports journalism has been gaining prominence and space within the Peruvian media; However, many times the work carried out by sports newspapers has left feelings that a rigorous research work is not really carried out. Following this, it was decided to address the case of one of the most representative national sports newspapers in the current market, the newspaper Líbero. This work seeks to identify if research resources are applied and how they are used in Peruvian daily sports journalism. For this, a qualitative methodology was used and a daily follow-up was carried out for 7 days. Likewise, an instrument was designed based on 3 categories of analysis that allowed us to identify what resources were used and in what way. An interview with the director of the media was also carried out to know its version and to be able to contrast the observations with what the newspaper manager mentions. Once the investigation was completed, it was concluded that Peruvian sports newspapers do present the use of research resources; however, its application is not rigorous or systematic. Likewise, the necessary deepening is not reached and many resources have a partial application. Immediacy is the priority within the work of the sports journalist and its texts reflect this.

Abstract:

En medio de la disrupción digital que ha puesto patas arriba los medios de comunicación, sus rutinas productivas y el modelo de negocio de las últimas décadas, la exclusiva periodística ha seguido manteniendo un aura casi sagrada de producto estelar dentro de los contenidos informativos. Tener una exclusiva es tener algo valioso en una redacción. Pero el modo de conseguirlas es costoso tanto en dinero como en tiempo y en compromisos con las fuentes. De manera que en la actual sobreabundancia 2.0, la exclusiva sigue siendo un contenido escaso, una rareza solo al alcance de unos pocos. El trabajo de esta tesis, a través de un compendio de publicaciones, ha sido explorar todas las caras de la exclusiva en España en el nuevo entorno marcado por la aceleración de los tiempos, las noticias de última hora, las alertas en el móvil y las redes sociales. A través de un análisis de un período concreto y una muestra significativa –las exclusivas de política publicadas durante el año 2012 en los diarios más importantes de la prensa española–, y la combinación de diversas metodologías, se van desgranando las estrategias, tanto de las cabeceras como de los periodistas. Los editores intentan usar la exclusiva para proteger el formato de papel impreso de su declive, pero no pueden resistirse a usar las herramientas digitales para avanzar estos temas propios y ganarle a la competencia. Por otro lado, los periodistas procuran defender su autoría, se muestran reacios a participar en el magma de las redes, donde los profesionales de la información han perdido buena parte del control de antaño y dependen más que nunca de la prescripción de los lectores en las redes sociales. In the midst of the digital disruption that has turned the media upside down, its production routines and its business model over the last decades, the journalistic scoop has kept an almost sacred aura of stellar product within the informative content. Getting a scoop is getting something valuable in a news desk. But the way to get them is expensive both in money, in time and in commitments to sources. So in the current 2.0 overabundance, the scoop remains a scarce content, a rarity only within the reach of a few. The efforts of this thesis, through a compendium of publications, has been to explore all scoop angles in Spain within the new environment marked by the acceleration of times, breaking news, mobile phone notifications and social networks. Through an analysis of a specific period and a significant sample – political scoops published during 2012 in the most important journals of the Spanish press - and the combination of different methodologies, the strategies are being broken down, both from the newspapers and the journalists. Editors try to use the scoop to protect the printed paper format from its decline but they cannot resist using digital tools to advance these own topics and win the competition. On the other hand, journalists try to defend their authorship, they are reluctant to participate in the networks’ magma where information professionals have lost much of the control of yesteryear and depend more than ever on the prescription of readers on social networks.

Abstract:

Este trabajo de investigación, presenta la narrativa periodística del noticiero peruano ATV, en relación a su cobertura del caso Camila, y del noticiero mexicano Imagen Noticias, por su despliegue narrativo sobre el caso Fátima. En ambos casos se emiten notas sobre feminicidio en niñas, en los que el rol de la madre es más perseguido que el del asesino. Debido a estos sucesos, este trabajo analizará la narrativa periodística, pues es sumamente importante tener en cuenta la forma en la que son contados los hechos, ya que los medios de comunicación son fuentes claves de información y de percepción de los hechos por parte de sus televidentes. This investigative work presents the journalistic narrative of the Peruvian newscast ATV, about its coverage of the Camila case, and of the Mexican newscast Imagen Noticias, for its narrative unfolding on the Fátima case. Both cases issued on femicide in girls, in which the role of the mother is more persecuted than of the murderer. Due to these events, this document will analyze the journalistic narrative, since it is important to take into account how the facts are told since the media are key sources of information and perception of the facts by their viewers.

Abstract:

Thesis (MPhil (Journalism))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010. 131 p. This thesis explores how six commercial local newspapers based in the towns of Swellendam, Bredasdorp, Caledon and Gansbaai are reporting on gender and HIV/AIDS in ways that may help to shift specific attitudes as well as to generate appropriate community responses. The overall aim of the study is to advance theories around the location of commercial news media in the development context. It also aims to inform and empower development workers and activists on the opportunities or pitfalls in engaging with rural local media to advance their development goals. In most prior studies into the nature of gender or HIV/AIDS reporting in the media in South Africa, the focus has been exclusively on mainstream corporate and/or urbanbased media titles and very little investigation has been done into the performance of small ruralbased media. The study employs two methods of data collection namely, a quantitative content analysis of newspapers and structured interviews with the editors of the papers, and a sample group of government employees and community activists in the respective towns. The structured interviews provide a qualitative dimension to the content analysis, bearing in mind the dangers of quantifying media content and making isolated judgements on the actual context of journalistic practice. Through the interviews, the researcher has been able to explore the extent to which the perceptions of the media editors visavis a public interest role with respect to gender and HIV/AIDS actually differs from the quantitative evidence of their performance and the perceptions of key informants in their communities. The findings of the study suggest that local rural media hold out great hope with respect to the advancement of development communication goals through commercial media platforms. The editors in the four towns have established organic connections with their community, albeit tenuous, but which extend into the ranks of development workers in their towns. The data from the content analysis suggests that women enjoy high visibility in the pages of their local papers, and they are most likely to be portrayed as positive achievers than as women encountering violence. The tenuous nature of the connections between editor and community are most starkly evident around the issue of HIV/AIDS, with coverage of this being very low despite much work being undertaken in the community to deal with the pandemic. With respect to the issue of gender, there was demonstrable evidence from actual examples of content, that showed on the one hand the capacity to motivate for change in women's lives, but also on the other hand a danger of reinforcing attitudes that compound women's oppression. The study offers recommendations to a range of roleplayers to ensure, firstly, the continued survival of local rural newspapers, and also support in building capacity to see these papers mature into journalism products that are integrative and transformative.
