Who shapes the news? Analyzing journalists’ and organizational interests as competing influences on biased coverage
2018
This study investigates influences on gatekeeping processes that have the potential to cause biased media coverage. We tested whether and, if so, to what extent journalists’ and organizational interests affect journalistic news processing. In a content analysis, we contrasted the press coverage (n = 1199 articles) of trade disputes of newspaper journalists with the coverage of other trade disputes. Results indicate both coverage and statement bias. In their coverage of newspaper disputes, journalists evaluated employers’ offers significantly more negatively, framed industrial action as legitimate, and criticized employers’ behavior during strikes.
Entstehen und Scheitern Strategischer Allianzen in der Telekommunikationsbranche
2001
Hungenberg (1998) has shown in this journal that strategic alliances have become an important strategic instrument in the telecommunications industry. Building up on this investigation we analyze the motives for the formation and failure of strategic alliances on the basis of a content analysis of the business newspaper “Handelsblatt” from 1995–1997. We show that in the telecommunications sector access to know-how and other resources as well as market access are the primary motives for the formation of strategic alliances. In contrast to other industries, cost and time advantages as motives are not relevant at all. The primary reason for the failure of strategic alliances was strategic reor…
“They’re a little bit squeezed in the middle”: Strategic challenges for innovation in US Metropolitan newspaper organisations
2019
This paper focuses on media innovation among publishers of metropolitan newspapers in the United States, in cities such as San Diego, Boston, Miami, Philadelphia and Dallas. The situation for metropolitan newspapers is difficult, as they fall between national newspapers, which can aim for extending their reach both nationally and globally, and local newspapers, which have a smaller cost structure and can cater to a more limited, and often more engaged, audience community. Our paper demonstrates that there seems to be great awareness of what can be done by US metropolitan newspapers, but managers are struggling with constraints, such as lack of financial and human resources and general organ…
'A Shared Reality between a Journalist and the Audience': How Live Journalism Reimagines News Stories
2021
Live journalism is a new journalistic genre in which journalists present news stories to a live audience. This article investigates the journalistic manuscripts of live journalism performances. With the focus on texts, the article reaches beyond the live performance to explore the wider implications and potentials pioneered by live journalists. The data were gathered from <em>Musta laatikko</em> (‘Black Box’) manuscripts, a live journalism production by the Finnish newspaper <em>Helsingin Sanomat</em>. The manuscripts were analysed as <em>eudaimonic journalism</em> through four conceptual dimensions: self-transcendence, autonomy, competence, and relatedne…
La vacuna del Virus del Papiloma Humano en los titulares de prensa
1970
Los periódicos ponen textos a disposición del público mediante procesos y prácticas entre los que se sitúan los valores noticiosos, definidos como criterios en las rutinas periodísticas que habilitan a los editores a decidir que historias se publican y cuáles no. Por tanto, intentaremos identificar desde un punto de vista cualitativo, los valores noticiosos en los titulares de las noticias, de diferentes periódicos, publicadas entre enero de 2006, año en que fue aprobada la vacuna por la autoridades de la administración americana (FDA) y mayo de 2009, mes posterior al episodio en que dos adolescentes valencianas experimentaron crisis convulsivas tras ser inmunizadas. Tratando de identificar…
Modalitātes lietojums tiešsaistes laikrakstu rakstos Lielbritānijā un ASV par politiskām tēmām
2020
Iepriekšējie pētījumi par modalitātes lietojumu laikrakstu rakstos atklāja, ka žurnālisti mēdz ietekmēt lasītājus un sniegt faktu subjektīvu interpretāciju, kad tiek gaidīts objektīvs notikumu atspoguļojums. Tāpēc šī darba mērķis bija analizēt modalitātes lietojumu septiņpadsmit tiešsaistes laikrakstu rakstos divos Lielbritānijas un divos ASV laikrakstos par Brexit. Pētījumā izmantotās metodes ir diskursa analīze un statistiskā analīze. Rezultāti liecina, ka visvairāk lietotais modālais darbības vārds abu valstu laikrakstos ir will, kas izteica pārliecības nozīmi ar pierādījumu palīdzību, un norādīja, ka priekšroka tiek dota patiesībai. Pārējie modālie darbības vārdi would un could dominēja…
Design follows politics? The visualization of political orientation in newspaper page layout
2017
This article explores how the political orientation of newspapers is reflected in their page layout. The authors compare the layouts of five German national quality newspapers exemplarily and exploratively in a combination of quantitative and qualitative analyses. Dimensions of comparison are typography, size, colouration, quantity and arrangement of elements. Results show systematic differences between the page layouts of left-wing and right-wing newspapers. These differences are reflected in the contrast of traditional and contemporary styles and also in the use of ideologically charged typography and colours. In addition, the size of headlines seems to be dependent on political extremity…
The Many Faces of Interactivity in Convergent Media Environments. Assessing Uses and Effects of Interactivity from a User and Management Perspective
2013
Digitization has blurred the distinctions between producers and audiences. Thus, research on interactivity as a key element of convergent media environments has grown dramatically over the past three decades. However, despite this strong research interest there is currently no consensus about the multi-faced and hard-to-grasp concept. Obviously, interactivity is used to describe numerous processes in convergent media environments that are related to communication in general, and online communication and practices like online journalism in particular. This article highlights the main strands in the conceptual development of interactivity and explores some of the effects of interactivity by s…
Regional newspapers’ sourcing strategies: Changes in media-citation and self-citation from a longitudinal perspective
2018
In the light of profound transformation processes shaping news media markets during the last decade, in particular local and regional news markets are confronted with consolidation and concentration processes. As a result, newspaper organizations are required to adapt their organizational strategies and editorial routines to face these challenges. Among journalistic routines, the use of sources is a prime example for an analysis of changing patterns in news production. This article investigates regional newspaper’s use of self- and media-citations in a longitudinal design (1995, 2006, 2015). Based on a content analysis of German regional newspapers (N = 4713 articles), we illustrate changi…

Abstract. The Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence caused heated discussion both in society and media in Latvia.
