Getting the facts straight in a digital era: Journalistic accuracy and trustworthiness
From the uprising of Tibetan monks in 2008, through to Iran’s Twitter Revolution in 2009 and the 2010 Arab Spring, the journalistic coverage of transnational conflicts is often not only driven but – increasingly – framed by ‘authentic’ reports, uploaded to interactive media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. Online sites appear to be affecting both the widening of the thematic scope through ‘authentic’ news of otherwise geographica…
Between networks and ‘hierarchies of credibility’: Navigating journalistic practice in a sea of user-generated content
Institutional journalists are under pressure and the field of journalism is in flux. If twentieth-century journalism was characterized by ‘a trained professional delivering objectively validated content to a reader (or viewer, or listener)’, where there was room ‘for a journalism of analysis and opinion delivered by an authoritative public voice’ (McNair, 2009a: 347), and we agree that journalism is changing, we can wonder where journalism in the…
The postmodern challenge to journalism: Strategies for constructing a trustworthy identity
With the recent rise of the new digital media culture, mainstream news media across Western democracies have been increasingly adopting new forms of online participatory journalism. One of the most popular forms has been comment sections attached to news articles (i.e. comment fields). Such spaces are unique because they not only allow audiences the opportunity to react and comment on journalistic content, but also provide a space where audiences…
Introduction: Rethinking journalism: the structural transformation of a public good
The first decades of the twentieth century led to a period of high modernism1 in (American) journalism because of the increasing professionalization of journalists and the consolidation of a shared occupational ideology, as authors such as Hallin (1992; 2006) and Zelizer (2004a) have argued. Hallin shows that both political and economic factors contributed to the virtually uncontested status of journalism in providing what was accepted as truthfu…
Trust, cynicism, and responsiveness: The uneasy situation of journalism in democracy
This chapter explores what news organisations and those who work in them can do to secure their futures in a digitised media environment where their cultural authority and professional status are challenged as never before in the history of journalism. It argues for a response, from both institutions and individuals, on three levels. First, there needs to be an enhancement of the traditional sense-making, sorting-and-sifting, gatekeeping function…
A refractured paradigm: Journalism, hoaxes and the challenge of trust
Professional news organizations have undoubtedly faced major challenges in the first decade of the twenty-first century. With the rise of the world wide web as an interactive platform for information trade, the business of information exchange has been catapulted into a global sphere that enables connections spanning the globe in a manner unthinkable just a few decades ago. What seems most striking in this respect are the changes in the pace at w…
Trust, truth and objectivity: Sustaining quality journalism in the era of the content-generating user
This chapter begins from pessimism. It begins by arguing that the history of alternative media is predominantly one of failure: failure to reach any but the most specialist of audiences and a consequent failure to effect the political and social transformations that represent the ambition of so many of its projects. However, I do not wish simply to reproduce past arguments here. Emerging forms of journalism and user-generated content have begun t…
