America's Battle for Media Democracy
Journal Article America's Battle for Media Democracy: The Triumph of Corporate Libertarianism and the Future of Media Reform Get access By Victor Pickard. (New York: Cambridge University Press, 2015. xii, 247 pp. Paper, $29.99.)

Trajectories
When the Journalism Studies Interest Group of the International Communication Association was formed in pre-Katrina New Orleans in 2004, online journalism looked very much like offline journalism. Yes, content was available on a computer screen rather than on a piece of paper or over the airwaves. But otherwise, it was much the same: produced by a news organization, dominated by text, consumed but not created by an audience. By the time the inter…
A íntima dependência mútua entre fato e valor
Este artigo examina a relação intrincada entre fato e valor no jornalismo, argumentando que ambos são mutuamente dependentes. Os autores questionam a noção de objetividade jornalística como uma separação completa entre fato e valor, demonstrando como os valores influenciam a seleção, apresentação e interpretação dos fatos. A objetividade, segundo eles, é um produto de acordos intersubjetivos sobre valores que servem como premissas para julgamento…
The Claims of Multiculturalism and Journalism’s Promise of Diversity
Mainstream American journalism rests on a pluralist model of democracy that conserves the status quo, essentializes culture, and trivializes diversity. A very different understanding of diversity emerges from a multiculturalist perspective that questions existing arrangements, posits a relational view of culture, and defines diversity in terms of patterns of discrimination and inequality. A case study of coverage of a local issue in the mainstrea…
Journalism and the second-person effect
Ethics and Eloquence in Journalism
Journalists’ common sense, their everyday moral intuitions, offers a practical but flawed way of knowing right from wrong. But rather than discounting or dismissing this “naïve everyday ethical knowledge,” which would rob journalism of its normative substance, we propose to rehabilitate it through a process of public justification. Grounded in aspects of Jürgen Habermas's theory of communicative ethics, we offer a model of press accountability th…

The Politics of Public Journalism
Play and the power of news
Public journalism and the search for democratic ideals
Public journalism is apparently gaining influence in newsrooms throughout the US. It seems to be a genuinely innovative effort to move journalists away from thinking about the claims of separation that have long defined the practice of journalism toward thinking about the claims of connection that might redefine and reinvigorate the role of the press in a democratic society. Public journalism presumes a democracy in decay and posits a role for th…

The Irony in—and of—Journalism
In Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity, Rorty argues that liberal democracy has had “the last conceptual revolution it needs.” He also suggests that journalism, like literature, helps realize the benefits of this revolution by telling stories about suffering and injustice—stories that contribute to a sense of human solidarity. This essay examines a particular rhetorical and narrative strategy—irony—used in a particular genre of contemporary journa…
When the facts don't speak for themselves
A comparison of three news stories illustrates how journalists can use irony to undercut and even reverse the literal or ostensible meaning of what is being reported. As a rhetorical device aimed at establishing the conditions for competing interpretations of a text, irony enables journalists to report “the facts” accurately and impartially while at the same time letting it be known—albeit quietly—that the facts do not “speak for themselves.” But…

Investigative journalism and the moral order
In this essay, we examine the cultural consequences of a press that seeks to be both a detached observer of fact and a “custodian of conscience.” Drawing upon interviews with distinguished investigative journalists, we examine the diverse ways that these reporters have found to work within, but never resolve, the tension between objectivity and adversarialism. We also examine the particular contribution of investigative journalists to moral order…
