How civil society coalition-building affects information integrity during elections: Evidence from four African countries
This article examines how civil society actors promote information integrity during elections through coalition-building, drawing on evidence from four African countries (the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Senegal, and South Africa) that held elections between 2022 and 2024. In these countries, disinformation, extreme speech, and other forms of information manipulation often target electoral processes, threatening to undermine public trust,…
Misinformation and Digital Inequalities: Comparing How Different Demographic Groups Get Exposed to and Engage with False Information
This study examines the extent to which digital inequalities, often associated in the literature with certain social demographics (e.g. age or place of residence), shape media users’ exposure to and engagement with misinformation. Using data from 24 focus group discussions conducted in six African countries (Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe), we describe media users’ diverse experiences with false information and discuss …

Cynical or Critical Media Consumers? Exploring the Misinformation Literacy Needs of South African Youth
Media and information literacy (MIL) has long been part of academic curricula in many parts of the world, including South Africa. More recently, the rise of misinformation on the continent has emphasised the importance of including misinformation literacy (ML) skills into these programmes. Such skills involve distinguishing different types of inaccurate content, authenticating online information, and using technology to verify images/videos. Draw…
The ethics of the everyday: Mauritian morning talk radio as a space for democratic engagement
Morning talk radio in Mauritius has established itself as a popular platform where participants phone in to raise problems they encounter in their everyday lives. The first wave of liberalization of the airwaves in Mauritius has allowed private radio stations to schedule talk programmes, especially in their morning editions, that create spaces for the voices of ordinary people to be heard as they speak, contest decisions of powerholders and look …
International communication: On the significance of borders in the digital borderless world
In this Dialogue, we reproduce the discussions held during a plenary session that took place during the International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR) conference organized in Lyon in July 2023. Hosted by Tristan Mattelart, this session brought together four distinguished speakers who have all worked extensively, with different perspectives, on the processes of international communication: Yu Hong, Stefania Milan, Daya K Th…
The Ideal and Practice of Constructive Journalism: How South African Journalists Perceive Their Roles
This article enters into a growing conversation in the literature around the notion of constructive journalism as a normative paradigm for journalism practice. Literature on constructive journalism has largely been dominated by perspectives from the Global North. Focusing on the developing Global South context of South Africa, this study asked: What are the perceptions and attitudes of South African editors and journalists towards constructive jo…
South African tabloid coverage of Covid19: The Daily Sun
Around the world, tabloid newspapers are routinely surrounded by a moral and cultural panic. They are criticised for lowering standards of journalism and privileging sensation above substance, diverting readers from serious news to entertainment, or foregoing ethical principles. However, scholarship about tabloids have also highlighted the ways in which these papers are frequently better attuned to their readers’ everyday lived experience. In Sou…

How effective are Chinese media in shaping audiences’ attitudes towards China? A survey analysis in Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa
Purpose This paper measures how often audiences in Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa consume Chinese media, and investigates whether a positive relationship exists between the consumption of English language Chinese media and attitudes towards China. Method We analyze three waves of survey data collected in 2017/2018, 2020 and 2021 ( N = 5876) in Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa. Findings We show that, while Chinese State-owned news media have a gr…

Who is Responsible for Stopping the Spread of Misinformation? Examining Audience Perceptions of Responsibilities and Responses in Six Sub-Saharan African Countries
While research on misinformation in Africa has increased in recent years, and despite a growing body of theoretical and empirical work that considers the role of governments, platforms, and users in stopping misinformation globally, there is still a lack of empirical research addressing ways to curb its spread on the continent. Research has coalesced around the idea that no single approach will work in all contexts, and effective strategies need …

The Ethics of Engagement: Media, Conflict and Democracy in Africa
This book discusses the relationship between media, conflict, and democratization in Africa from the perspective of media ethics. Despite the commonly held view that conflict is a destructive political force that can destabilize democracies, the argument in this book is that while many conflicts can indeed become violent and destructive, they can also be managed in a way that can render them productive and communicative to democracy. Drawing on t…
South African newspaper coverage of Covid-19: A content analysis
The ongoing coronavirus pandemic has led to unprecedented media coverage globally and in South Africa where, at the time of writing, over 20,000 people had died from the virus. This article explores how mainstream print media covered the COVID-19 pandemic during this time of crisis. The news media play a key role in keeping the public informed during such health crises and potentially shape citizens’ perceptions of the pandemic. Drawing on a cont…

The interview covers the founding of the journal, its development and its current standing in the field, as well as highlights of De Beer's long involvement with the journal
Moving from diversity to transformation in communication scholarship
The topic of ‘De-Westernizing’ the field of communication studies has been on the agenda for many years, with landmark studies (e.g. Curran & Park, 2000; Shome & Hedge, 2002) calling for the inclus
Tabloidization of the News
The term tabloidization is used by scholars to refer to a real or perceived deterioration of journalistic standards. Use of the term tabloid or tabloidization to refer to style, genre, or notions of quality has become even more widespread as a result of changing modes of news delivery, in particular the relatively diminished place of printed newspapers in the news media landscape. International comparisons in the literature point to the need to s…
An Exploratory Study of “Fake News” and Media Trust in Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa
In recent years, concerns about the perceived increase in the amount of “fake news” have become prevalent in discussions about media and politics, particularly in the United States and Europe. However, debates around “fake news”, even if some object to the use of the term due to it being loosely defined, appear to speak of processes that occur not only in the Global North but also elsewhere. In Africa, mis- and disinformation campaigns have been …

Intellectual Balkanization or Globalization: The Future of Communication Research Publishing
Media and Communications
Developments in digital technologies over the last 30 years have expanded massively human beings' capacity to communicate across time and space (Section 13.1).Media infrastructures have simultaneously acquired huge complexity.By "media" we mean technologies for the production, dissemination, and reception of communication, but also the contents distributed through those technologies and the institutions associated with their production, dissemina…
Power, Meaning and Geopolitics: Ethics as an Entry Point for Global Communication Studies
The globalization of communications studies has been a long-standing concern in the field, but attempts to engage perspectives from the South have been critiqued for their inability to engage with questions of structure and power. This article argues that the debates in the sub-field of communication ethics can serve as an entry point for a multi-levelled approach to the globalization of the field. A three-level approach to globalize the field of…
Fake news from Africa: Panics, politics and paradigms
The moral panic about ‘fake news’ internationally has formed the backdrop for debates about the impact of the spread of similar fabrications on politics in South Africa. News – whether ‘fake’ or ‘real’ – should not be understood outside of its particular contexts of production and consumption, and therefore an investigation into the phenomenon of ‘fake news’ in South Africa needs to take account of local specificities. The phenomenon of ‘fake new…
Journalism in a new democracy: The ethics of listening
This article takes as its point of departure the recent massacre of striking miners at the Lonmin mine at Marikana in North-West Province, South Africa. The shooting, in which 36 mine workers were killed, was an attack on civilians by state forces unprecedented in the democratic era. The incident received wide local and international coverage. In this article the author argues that the reporting of the event demonstrated how the professional rout…
Globalized Values and Postcolonial Responses: South African Perspectives on Normative Media Ethics
Globalization has had a far-reaching effect on media technologies worldwide. Concomitant with this global spread of media forms, liberal views of the media’s role in a democracy have been exported to countries outside the West. In scholarly debates, attempts are increasingly made to globalize media ethics on the basis of a search for universal ethics. However, reactions against western, liberal-democratic views of the media’s role in society in p…
Which public? Whose interest? The South African Media and its role during the first ten years of democracy
A number of salient issues arose in the South African media landscape during the first ten years of its democracy. This article outlines the significant changes brought about by democratisation, such as the shift from governmental control to self-regulation and ownership changes. The focus is on conflicts between the mainstream media sector and the new democratic government, especially as these conflicts relate to the difference in understanding …
Mobile Phones, Popular Media, and Everyday African Democracy: Transmissions and Transgressions
The effectiveness of new media technologies, including mobile phones, to facilitate political participation and create social change has long been contested. Recent events in countries such as Mozambique, Iran, Tunisia, and Egypt have again raised questions about the role new media technologies can play to create alternative public spheres and mobilize for social action. In the African context, where access to new media technologies is marked by …
The glocalization of journalism ethics
This article addresses globalization's effects on journalism ethics in South Africa and India. It shows the ways in which the debates and issues of journalism ethics are being resolved through the process which scholars have termed as glocalization. Both in South Africa and India we found a two-way relationship between global and local epistemologies and practices. By using examples from each country, we suggest that journalism ethics is going th…

This volume explores the construction of an ethics for news media that is global in reach and impact. Essays by international media ethicists provide leading theoretical perspectives on major issues and applies the ideas to specific countries, contexts and problems, addressing such questions as: Are there universal values in journalism? How would a global media ethics do justice to the cultural, political, and economic differences around the worl…
Journalistic norms between universality and domestication: Journalists’ interpretations of press freedom in six new democracies
The global spread of freedom of the press and expression is widely acclaimed as one of the main achievements of democratization over the past two decades. Yet, the meaning of press freedom, how it should be practised and where the boundaries of this new-found freedom lie are fiercely disputed in most new democracies. This article explores how journalists from six new democracies in Eastern Europe (Bulgaria, Poland), East Asia (South Korea, Taiwan…

Freedom’s just another word? Perspectives on media freedom and responsibility in South Africa and Namibia
As emerging democracies in Africa, the political communication systems of South Africa and Namibia have undergone major shifts since the early 1990s. For both these countries, democracy brought greater and constitutionally protected freedom of the media. This freedom was however seen as linked to certain responsibilities for the media to fulfil as democratic institutions. From ongoing clashes between journalists, politicians and the state in both…
Chinese Media Engagement in South Africa: What is its impact on local journalism
China’s footprint in Africa’s media sector over the last decade has reached dimensions that make it impossible to go unnoticed. In South Africa, one of the countries where this imprint is most diversified, Chinese media have been engaged in a varied range of activities, including content production and distribution, infrastructure development, direct investment in local media and training of journalists. Building on previous exploratory studies b…
Attack of the Killer Newspapers: The “tabloid revolution” in South Africa and the future of newspapers
While newspapers in the global North seem to be involved in a struggle for survival, the inverse seems to be happening in South Africa. Since their introduction almost a decade after South Africa became a democracy, a range of new tabloid papers have taken the country by storm. The Daily Sun is now the biggest selling daily newspaper in the country, showing a constant increase since its launch five years ago. The publisher claims that there is ev…
Print media coverage of service delivery protests in South Africa: A content analysis
In recent years South Africa has seen an increase in 'service delivery protests' – protests related to the inadequate provision of services – as a result of growing citizen frustration resulting from high levels of economic inequality. Unemployment, housing, water and sanitation, electricity, corruption and municipal administration, health and crime, have all been listed as reasons for the protests, often described a 'rebellion of the poor'. Give…
South Africa and China as BRICS Partners: Media Perspectives on Geopolitical Shifts
The emergence of the Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) group of states as a new geopolitical power bloc has received substantial coverage in the media. South Africa's inclusion in the group has been particularly controversial, and media attention tended to focus on the country's relationship with China against the backdrop of the BRICS alignment. The media industry itself has also been a part of global movements of people and …
Learning a new language: Culture, ideology and economics in Afrikaans media after apartheid
Under apartheid, the mainstream Afrikaans media served as vehicles for the ideology of apartheid. Since democratization, they have attempted to rid themselves of this ideological baggage, and instead embraced a free-market ideology in which race has ostensibly disappeared. This repositioning has seemingly benefited the Afrikaans media sector, with an increase of the number and type of media, operating under the proclaimed banner of non-racialism.…
Communication from above and below: Media, Protest and Democracy
Since the end of apartheid, there has been a steady rise in community protests in South Africa. Many of these protests – often cumulatively grouped under the rubric of 'service delivery protests' are not only about the delivery of basic services, but equally about the closing down of democratic/institutional space and process when communities try to raise issues related to services and corruption. If protests are a way for the poor and the margin…
Is a New Worldwide Web Possible? An Explorative Comparison of the Use of ICTs by Two South African Social Movements
In this article the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), especially new media technologies such as e-mail and the Internet, by postapartheid South African social movements is explored. Following a discussion of the use of these technologies by activist groupings in international contexts, a typology suggested by Rheingold (2003) is used as a framework for comparing two South African social movements: the Treatment Action Camp…
Binary opposites – can South African journalists be both watchdogs and developmental journalists
This article challenges the traditional role ascribed by liberal and developmental media theory that journalists should either be watchdogs or developmental journalists but not both at the same time. As part of the South African leg of the Worlds of Journalism (WJS) project this article argues that it is indeed possible that the media can fulfil both roles. Utilizing the WJS 2014 questionnaire and based on a provincial face-to-face (n=37) and a n…
A media not for all: A comparative analysis of journalism, democracy and exclusion in Indian and South African media
This paper provides a comparative analysis between the media of India and South Africa, two emerging regional economic powerhouses and emerging democracies. The analysis is macro. The paper describes and analyzes media content and journalism practices in each country and how Indian and South African media have given limited attention to the deep divisions—centered around class, gender, race, and caste—which mark day-to-day life in each society. C…
Global journalism studies: Beyond panoramas
This article examines the challenges that the accelerated globalisation of the media industry pose to journalism education and research, with a particular focus on journalism studies in the global South. Through references to key features of recent debates in the field of journalism studies, the article argues for the adoption of a critical perspective on global journalism studies in research and teaching, the integration of that perspective acro…
Global media ethics revisited: A postcolonial critique
Little theoretical work from non-Western perspectives has entered the epistemological discussion of universal ethical principles for media and journalism. The increased analysis of media globalization requires a closer examination of the ethical principles being advocated by media theorists. We use postcolonial theory to argue that advocates of universal media ethics need to take into account the history of colonialism, differences of powers betw…

Open Ethics: Towards a global media ethics of listening
This article explores the idea of listening as a promising approach to developing an open and global media ethics. Listening is conceptualized as part of open and dialogic ethics—an ethics that is open to all citizens, that uses dialogue to do ethics, and that attempts to cross borders. The article argues that listening is a distinct and appropriate way to do ethics amid global diversity, inequality, and conflict. After defining global media ethi…

Having it both ways: Balancing market and political interests at a South African daily newspaper
The process of democratic transition in South Africa has brought many changes to the national political economic context within which media companies operate. These changes have also brought challenges for South African media companies to reposition themselves ideologically, with their political-economic interests in mind. Coinciding with these local challenges to the South African media's ideological positioning and economic strategising was the…
Postcolonial cultural identity in recent Afrikaans literary texts
This article investigates constructions of cultural identity in recent works of short fiction written in Afrikaans. These texts were read within the framework of postcolonial discourse theory, since they were published in the period after the first democratic elections in South Africa in 1994 and form part of a discourse of writing back to colonial discourses, including that of apartheid. The framework proposed by Mishra and Hodge ([1993]1994) of…

Between the Local and the Global: South African Languages and the Internet
This article addresses some of the potential of the Internet in building a new South African nationhood, especially through language. However, before the Internet can really promote multilingualism and multiculturalism in South Africa, the severe inequalities that mark access to the medium need to be overcome, possibly by sharing resources between minority languages, of which Afrikaans is economically in the strongest position. Within the globali…

Journalism education as transformative praxis
The debate about journalism education has several dimensions. The debate is not only a South African one, nor is it only a recent one. In South Africa, however, the debate about journalism education and the attendant theoretical frameworks from which journalism should be studied also have an ideological history. While the battle lines in this ideological conflict are not as starkly drawn in the post-apartheid era, questions regarding education jo…

In this article the potential of ICTs to amplify the work done by social movements and activists in South Africa will be explored. Against the background of new dis courses of Pan-African Unity such as those around the African Renaissance and the New Plan for African Development (Nepad), the use of ICTs by a South African activist group, the Treatment Action Campaign, will be investigated to establish how these communication technologies can embe…

Talking of Change: Constructing Social Identities in South African Media Debates
Since the democratisation of South Africa in the 1990s, the media has undergone change in a number of areas. Apart from the changes related to ownership, editorial staff and content, the media's position within society at large and in relation to government has also generated much debate. On several occasions these debates have brought the media sector in conflict with the new government. This article argues that these debates have led to the eme…

Les médias afrikaans après l'apartheid: Un Héritage Encombrant
Sous l'apartheid, les médias afrikaans véhiculaient l'idéologie du régime. Depuis la démocratisation, ils ont tenté de se débarrasser de leur héritage idéologique et ont adhéré en échange à une idéologie de marché d'où la notion de race était ostensiblement absente. Cependant, cette transformation demeure limitée en raison d'une articulation paradoxale entre les discours libéral et identitaire. Cet article retrace la manière dont les médias afrik…

Theoretical debates about global media ethics have been marked by disagreements about the nature, possibility, and desirability of a global ethics.

The article aims to explore various theoretical positions o…
