    Open Access•Vera Zervakaki, Stylianos Papathanassopoulo et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism•2026

    This paper examines how Greek journalists perceive the effectiveness of new-media practices-oriented journalism education in their profession, using the retraining seminars on new media technologies conducted by the Journalists’ Union of Athens Daily Newspapers (JUADN) between 2019 and 2022 as a case study. Utilising a quantitative methodology, the study analyses data from an online questionnaire completed by 120 journalists between October and N…

    Open Access•Iliana Giannouli, Achilleas Karadimitriou et al.•ARTICLE•Online Media and Global…•2024

    Purpose The distinction between beliefs and facts, as well as between science and pseudoscience, appears to be hazy in the post-truth era. This study draws inspiration from public discourse concerning the safety of COVID-19 vaccines during the pandemic, aiming to explore the narratives of COVID-19 vaccine skeptics within the Greek online public sphere. Methodology For the purposes of our study, we analyzed Facebook posts from users’ pages and pub…

  • Talking Green on social media: An exploratory study of online environmental communication in Greece

    Open Access•Ioanna Archontaki, Iliana Giannouli et al.•ARTICLE•Observatorio (OBS•2024

    Traditional news media have long been the primary source of information on environmental issues, influencing public perceptions and shaping discourse on ecological sustainability. Media representations play a central role in forming public opinion, especially on climate change, which has become a highly politicized and polarized topic, both offline and online. Political ideologies, economic interests, and government agendas significantly shape ho…

  • Mapping Europeanization in the Greek online public sphere: Assessing the Europeanizing dynamics of social media

    Open Access•Ioanna Archontaki, Achilleas Karadimitriou et al.•ARTICLE•Observatorio (OBS•2024

    For more than a decade, following the peak of the debt crisis, Greece has been facing multiple challenges. Amongthem, a pandemic (COVID-19) that brought the global and thus the Greek economy to a halt, an energy crisis that threatens to flatten entire social classes, a refugee crisis, and wider regional instability. All of these concurrent problems reflect crucial socio-economic transformations compounding the country’s unsustainable debt. Despit…

  • Hate-Speech in Greece and Cyprus: How Public Communication Practitioners Discuss the Phenomenon

    Open Access•Despina Cochliou, Stamatis Poulakidako et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism Practice•2024•References: 4

    (Online) hate speech appears as a growing problem in Greece and Cyprus attributed to prejudices toward specific groups, the evolution of online media, lack of awareness and of appropriate educational tools to recognize and counter it. Communication professionals and media practitioners produce hate speech content both intentionally, to gain visibility and unintentionally due to their inability to recognize it. This paper presents a study conducte…

  • Crisis and populism: A Comparative Study of Populist and Non-Populist Candidates and Rhetoric in the News Media Coverage of Election Campaigns

    Sherri Salgado, Óscar G Luengo et al.•ARTICLE•European Politics and Society•2021•Cited by: 4•References: 14

    This research investigates links between the Euro Crisis and populism and asks whether there are patterns of populism in different election campaigns, namely is there country-specific populist rhetoric or similar anti-elite criticisms? Through content analysis, we examine the mainstream media coverage of populist and non-populist actors in the countries that were most affected by the Euro Crisis (Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain) and in Poland, a…

  • The Greek Media at the Intersection of the Financial Crisis and the Digital Disruption

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Stylianos Papathanassopoulos•CHAPTER•Emerald Handbook of Digital Media…•2020

    Greece provides another, although timid, example of how financial crisis and the technological advancements have affected national media systems. In the media sector, the recent financial crisis brought major losses of advertising revenues, while telecommunication companies have entered the field providing the Greeks with triple play services at lower rates. But in one way or another, the main players have remained the same. This chapter aims to …

  • Athenian University Students on Facebook and Privacy: A Fair 'Trade-Off

    Open Access•Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Elias Athanasiadis et al.•ARTICLE•Social Media + Society•2016•References: 31

    This article explores how Athenian university students 'manage' their privacy on Facebook while socially interacting with other users. Survey data of undergraduate students in Athens reveal that the social network site use 'validates' and enhances the pre-existing social context and that the relationship level has an impact on the way users contact other users on it. We find that Facebook users feel that they are able to use most of the privacy s…

  • Privacy 2.0

    Open Access•Stylianos Papathanassopoulo•ARTICLE•Social Media + Society•2015•Cited by: 2•References: 3

    We live in the era of change. In this world, privacy is not a static concept, but instead has a dynamic component. Overall, it becomes clear that the public and private are not defined in the same manner as in the past and as in the actual world, while our personal information has become a commodity that can raise our visibility in the social media driven world

  • The transition to digital television in Greece: Now what

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo•ARTICLE•International Journal of Digital…•2014•Cited by: 1

    This article aims to provide an overview of the current state of digital television in Greece. By examining the latest digital developments in the middle of financial crisis, it suggests that the Greek government adopted a purely market-driven approach leaving the private forces to take up digital terrestrial television. The closure of the public broadcaster, ERT, has accelerated the neo-liberal market-driven policy and Greece has ended up as one…

  • Reconsidering ‘virtuous circle’ and ‘media malaise’ theories of the media: An 11-nation study

    Open Access•Joanne Curran, James Curran et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism•2014•Cited by: 24•References: 19

    This study, based on a content analysis of television news and survey in eleven nations, explores the split between those who see the media as politically alienating and others who see the media as encouraging greater political involvement. Here, we suggest that both positions are partly right. On the one hand, television news, and in particular public service television news, can be very effective in imparting information about public affairs an…

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Sharon Coen et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism Practice•2013•Cited by: 11•References: 14

    As news media change, so media news consumption changes with them. This paper, part of a larger international research project involving 11 countries in four continents (Americas, Europe, Asia and Australia), is focused on news consumption. As the range of media outlets has increased dramatically in recent years, this paper asks which news sources are people regularly watching, listening to or reading to understand what is happening in the world.…

  • Sources in the News: A comparative study

    Rodney Tiffen, Paul K Jones et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism Studies•2013•Cited by: 34•References: 10

    In analysing the news media's role in serving the functions associated with democratic citizenship, the number, diversity and range of news sources are central. Research conducted on sources has overwhelmingly focused on individual national systems. However, studying variations in news source patterns across national environments enhances understanding of the media's role. This article is based on a larger project, “Media System, Political Contex…

  • Internet revolution revisited: A comparative study of online news

    Open Access•Joanne Curran, James Curran et al.•ARTICLE•Media Culture & Society•2013•Cited by: 5•References: 33

    While numerous studies view the internet as a patron of internationalism and public empowerment, this comparative study of leading news websites in nine nations shows that online news is strongly nation-centred, and much more inclined to cite the voices of authority than those of civil society and the individual citizen. Online news is very similar, in these respects, to newspaper and television news. This convergence is due to the way in which l…

    This article investigates the volume of foreign news provided by public service and commercial TV channels in countries with different media systems, and how this corresponds to the public's interest in and knowledge of foreign affairs. We use content analyses of television newscasts and public opinion surveys in 11 countries across five continents to provide new insight into the supply and demand for international television news.

  • The road to digital television in Greece: One step forward, two steps backward

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo•ARTICLE•International Journal of Digital…•2011

    This article aims to provide an overview of the state of digital conversion in Greece. By examining the latest digital developments in Greece, it suggests that the Greek government, in the case of digital satellite and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), adopted a purely market-driven approach and in effect a ‘do nothing’ policy option. On the other hand, in the case of digital terrestrial television (DTT), in an initial phase, the government wa…

  • The ‘state’ of ‘Public’ Broadcasting in Greece

    Open Access•Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Stylianos Papathanassopoulos•CHAPTER•Reinventing Public Service…•2010

    Greek broadcasting underwent spectacular change in the late 1980s. From a broadcasting environment with two state TV channels and four state radio stations in the mid-1990s, it now comprises 135 private TV channels and 890 private radio stations, 23 national and 135 local newspapers as well as 800 magazines. However, all private national and local TV stations technically speaking operate without an official licence to broadcast since the state ha…

    A B S T R A C T ■ This article examines how the press in four countries — three EU members (France, Britain, Greece) and Turkey — covered the run-up to the discussions surrounding Turkey's bid to become a member of the European Union in October and December 2004. Given contemporary debates about the nature of Europe and European identity, the prospect of Turkey — a large, poor, Muslim country — joining the EU was likely to generate much discussio…

Finally, we seek to link the no…

    Open Access•Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Stylianos Papathanassopoulos•ARTICLE•European Journal of Communication•2001•Cited by: 5•References: 6

    This article analyses the effects of media commercialization and market expansion on Greek journalism and argues that although journalism appears to be a profession which plays a more active social and political role in Greece, giving the impression that it sets the agenda and represents the ordinary citizen, it is heavily influenced by the constraints imposed by news organizations. The article first discusses to what extent the `professional mod…

    Open Access•Daniel C Hallin, Stylianos Papathanassopoulo et al.•ARTICLE•Media Culture & Society•2002•Cited by: 111•References: 11

    Open Access•Ralph Negrine, Beybin Kejanlioglu et al.•ARTICLE•European Journal of Communication•2008•Cited by: 7•References: 8

    A B S T R A C T ■ This article examines how the press in four countries — three EU members (France, Britain, Greece) and Turkey — covered the run-up to the discussions surrounding Turkey's bid to become a member of the European Union in October and December 2004. Given contemporary debates about the nature of Europe and European identity, the prospect of Turkey — a large, poor, Muslim country — joining the EU was likely to generate much discussio…

  • The ‘state’ of ‘Public’ Broadcasting in Greece

    Open Access•Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Stylianos Papathanassopoulos•CHAPTER•Reinventing Public Service…•2010

    Greek broadcasting underwent spectacular change in the late 1980s. From a broadcasting environment with two state TV channels and four state radio stations in the mid-1990s, it now comprises 135 private TV channels and 890 private radio stations, 23 national and 135 local newspapers as well as 800 magazines. However, all private national and local TV stations technically speaking operate without an official licence to broadcast since the state ha…

  • The road to digital television in Greece: One step forward, two steps backward

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo•ARTICLE•International Journal of Digital…•2011

    This article aims to provide an overview of the state of digital conversion in Greece. By examining the latest digital developments in Greece, it suggests that the Greek government, in the case of digital satellite and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), adopted a purely market-driven approach and in effect a ‘do nothing’ policy option. On the other hand, in the case of digital terrestrial television (DTT), in an initial phase, the government wa…

  • Online Threat, But Television is Still Dominant: A comparative study of 11 nations’ news consumption

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo, Sharon Coen et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism Practice•2013•Cited by: 11•References: 14

    As news media change, so media news consumption changes with them. This paper, part of a larger international research project involving 11 countries in four continents (Americas, Europe, Asia and Australia), is focused on news consumption. As the range of media outlets has increased dramatically in recent years, this paper asks which news sources are people regularly watching, listening to or reading to understand what is happening in the world.…

  • Sources in the News: A comparative study

    Rodney Tiffen, Paul K Jones et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism Studies•2013•Cited by: 34•References: 10

    In analysing the news media's role in serving the functions associated with democratic citizenship, the number, diversity and range of news sources are central. Research conducted on sources has overwhelmingly focused on individual national systems. However, studying variations in news source patterns across national environments enhances understanding of the media's role. This article is based on a larger project, “Media System, Political Contex…

  • Internet revolution revisited: A comparative study of online news

    Open Access•Joanne Curran, James Curran et al.•ARTICLE•Media Culture & Society•2013•Cited by: 5•References: 33

    While numerous studies view the internet as a patron of internationalism and public empowerment, this comparative study of leading news websites in nine nations shows that online news is strongly nation-centred, and much more inclined to cite the voices of authority than those of civil society and the individual citizen. Online news is very similar, in these respects, to newspaper and television news. This convergence is due to the way in which l…

  • International Tv News, Foreign Affairs Interest and Public Knowledge: A comparative study of foreign news coverage and public opinion in 11 countries

    This article investigates the volume of foreign news provided by public service and commercial TV channels in countries with different media systems, and how this corresponds to the public's interest in and knowledge of foreign affairs. We use content analyses of television newscasts and public opinion surveys in 11 countries across five continents to provide new insight into the supply and demand for international television news. We find that (…

  • The transition to digital television in Greece: Now what

    Stylianos Papathanassopoulo•ARTICLE•International Journal of Digital…•2014•Cited by: 1

    This article aims to provide an overview of the current state of digital television in Greece. By examining the latest digital developments in the middle of financial crisis, it suggests that the Greek government adopted a purely market-driven approach leaving the private forces to take up digital terrestrial television. The closure of the public broadcaster, ERT, has accelerated the neo-liberal market-driven policy and Greece has ended up as one…

  • Reconsidering ‘virtuous circle’ and ‘media malaise’ theories of the media: An 11-nation study

    Open Access•Joanne Curran, James Curran et al.•ARTICLE•Journalism•2014•Cited by: 24•References: 19

    This study, based on a content analysis of television news and survey in eleven nations, explores the split between those who see the media as politically alienating and others who see the media as encouraging greater political involvement. Here, we suggest that both positions are partly right. On the one hand, television news, and in particular public service television news, can be very effective in imparting information about public affairs an…

  • Privacy 2.0

    Open Access•Stylianos Papathanassopoulo•ARTICLE•Social Media + Society•2015•Cited by: 2•References: 3

    We live in the era of change. In this world, privacy is not a static concept, but instead has a dynamic component. Overall, it becomes clear that the public and private are not defined in the same manner as in the past and as in the actual world, while our personal information has become a commodity that can raise our visibility in the social media driven world
