Migration has re-emerged as a central political issue across Africa and Europe, yet comparative research continues to privilege European perspectives and rarely incorporates the heterogeneity of African media systems. This study addresses this gap through a systematic content analysis of 1871 online news articles from 30 outlets in 15 African and European countries (2023-2024). We examine form, content, and evaluative dimensions of migration repo…
Media Accountability: Global Trends and European Monitoring Capabilities
This article summarises the global state of the art of research into media accountability, using this overview as a framework for an analysis of 14 European countries’ structures and the possibilities for monitoring their media accountability landscapes. The first step shows that a model developed purely in the context of liberal Western democracies struggles to explain the diversity of media accountability instruments, actors, proceedings, and t…

Media WWWatchdogs? Die Rolle von Blogs für die Medienkritik in den USA
AuszugDie Massenmedien müssen kritischer über sich selbst berichten, angesichts der gesellschaftlichen Bedeutung der Medien gibt es noch immer zu wenig Medienjournalismus, die Mediennutzer sollten zu einem kritischeren Umgang mit den Massenmedien befähigt werden — Sätze wie diese wurden in den vergangenen Jahren immer wieder geäußert, und zwar sowohl von Medienbeobachtern als auch seitens der Medienmacher selbst. In den USA gibt es jedoch inzwisc…
Journalists and the information-attention markets: Towards an economic theory of journalism
In this article we suggest economic theory (specifically rational choice theory) as a promising approach to analyze the dramatic changes journalism is currently going through. Referring to the model of the 'homo economicus maturus' as well as to previous research by a small but growing number of scholars of mass communication, we describe journalists as rational actors seeking to maximize materialistic and non-materialistic rewards (e.g. attentio…
