Journalists’ Best Work
In this chapter, the authors asked journalists in our survey to send a sample of what they considered their “best work,” on the assumption that such work might be more likely to reflect the roles and news values they considered most important than the more typical day-to-day news coverage. They were interested in the subjects covered, the roles suggested, the news values implied, and the kind of sources used in these stories. The best stories sen…
Education and Training
This chapter discusses the educational backgrounds and preferences of US journalists in light of a decade of significantly increased numbers of journalism school graduates entering the media job market. Comparisons are made with the earlier 1971 and 1982-1983 studies of journalists, and also with US Census figures for the population in general. US schools and departments of journalism have grown greatly in number, and in numbers of students, sinc…
Women Journalists
Women journalists in 1992 had worked in journalism 3 years less than men, had somewhat lower incomes, were about a year younger than men, were less likely to be married, and were more likely to identify with the Democratic party. But men and women journalists did not differ much with respect to educational levels, religious background, membership in journalism organizations, or employment in group-owned versus independently owned media. African-A…
Job Conditions and Satisfactions
This chapter summarizes journalists’ perspectives on their jobs and working conditions, and compares them, where possible, over two decades of change since the early 1970s. To begin, the authors look at the reasons our respondents gave for going into journalism as an occupation. Print journalists were more likely than broadcast personnel to remember a talent for writing as a draw for journalism. Almost half of them cited an early interest in writ…
Professionalism
This chapter suggests that, contrary to many of the critics, journalism’s major problems may stem from too little professionalization, not too much. In a nutshell, the fragile intellectual-institutional grounding of journalism seems unable to keep up with the dazzling changes in the technological platform from which news is reported. Looking back just a quarter of a century, the reasons for the lag become clearer. It analyzes a wide range of surv…
Basic Characteristics of U.S. Journalists
This chapter looks at the size of the journalistic workforce in the United States in 1992 compared with earlier years, the geographic dispersion of US journalists, their age and gender, their ethnic and religious origins, their political views, and their media use patterns. Our estimates of US journalistic employment do not include part-time correspondents, freelancers, or stringers working on an occasional basis, although their numbers seem to h…
Minority Journalists
Scores of speeches, papers, articles, books, and television programs criticized the mainstream news media and journalism educators for not including more members of minority groups in their news organizations and classrooms and on their faculties. Others criticized the news coverage of minorities and their lives in various media as sparse, unrepresentative, stereotypical, and unduly negative. Native-American journalists were also the most likely …
Conclusions
Journalists working for news magazines and the wire services in the early 1990s were much more likely to be of the Jewish faith than the population at large, offering some support for Alter’s claim, but this was not true for the other news media. “Real” journalists differed most from Murphy Brown on personal living arrangements. A majority were married, although male journalists were more likely to be married than were female journalists. Stephen…
The American Journalist in the 1990s
Who are U.S. journalists? What are their backgrounds and educational experiences? Why did they choose journalism as an occupation? What do they think about their work? What are their professional and ethical values? What kinds of work do they consider their best? Do men differ from women on these questions? Do ethnic and racial minorities differ from the majority? Do journalists working for different print and broadcast news media differ? This bo…
The American Journalist in the Digital Age
This paper reports findings from a 2013 survey of 1080 US journalists and a 2014 survey of 1230 US citizens, focusing on their views of traditional journalism roles and the performance of journalism in the United States. The study finds significant differences in how journalists and the public evaluate news media performance and journalistic roles. It also finds that news consumption and social media use predict stronger support for traditional j…

A Case Study in Vocabulary Balance in News Prose
Computerized word frequency data from a 104,737 word sample of Associated Press wire news are used to test Zipf's “law” of vocabulary balance, an equation predicting statistical regularity between word frequency and word ranking in written English. The wire news word frequencies are plotted in logarithmic coordinates and compared with the slope produced by a newspaper language sample of 44,000 words used by Zipf to illustrate his model. The two s…
