  • The Rise and Impact of Fact-Checking in U.S. Campaigns by Amanda Wintersieck a Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment O
    The Rise and Impact of Fact-Checking in U.S. Campaigns by Amanda Wintersieck A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved April 2015 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Kim Fridkin, Chair Mark Ramirez Patrick Kenney ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2015 ABSTRACT Do fact-checks influence individuals' attitudes and evaluations of political candidates and campaign messages? This dissertation examines the influence of fact- checks on citizens' evaluations of political candidates. Using an original content analysis, I determine who conducts fact-checks of candidates for political office, who is being fact- checked, and how fact-checkers rate political candidates' level of truthfulness. Additionally, I employ three experiments to evaluate the impact of fact-checks source and message cues on voters' evaluations of candidates for political office. i DEDICATION To My Husband, Aza ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my sincerest thanks to the many individuals who helped me with this dissertation and throughout my graduate career. First, I would like to thank all the members of my committee, Professors Kim L. Fridkin, Patrick Kenney, and Mark D. Ramirez. I am especially grateful to my mentor and committee chair, Dr. Kim L. Fridkin. Your help and encouragement were invaluable during every stage of this dissertation and my graduate career. I would also like to thank my other committee members and mentors, Patrick Kenney and Mark D. Ramirez. Your academic and professional advice has significantly improved my abilities as a scholar. I am grateful to husband, Aza, for his tireless support and love throughout this project.

  • Hearst Television
    NEWS HEARST ELEVATES POLITICAL COVERAGE TO NEW LEVEL 12 Minutes Daily in 2012 for 150 Hours Total in Month Prior to Election Launches Election App, New “Commitment 2012 Investigates” Series And Partnership with PolitiFact NEW YORK, NY, January 3, 2012 – Hearst Television Inc., parent of one of the country’s largest television station groups, will once again devote significant resources to news coverage of the political process, through a project called Commitment 2012. The project marks a renewal of the Company’s biannual election-coverage efforts, which began with Commitment 2000 and which have earned a Peabody Award and multiple USC Annenberg Walter Cronkite Awards, including six group-wide honors. Hearst Television owns the leading television stations in Des Moines, Iowa (KCCI- TV), and Manchester, New Hampshire (WMUR-TV) -- the two markets where the 2012 presidential campaign begins with the Iowa caucuses, on January 3, and the New Hampshire primary, on January 10. Commitment 2012 will once again involve an intensified effort at the Company’s 25 news-producing TV stations, and on their respective local websites and mobile sites, to provide comprehensive local TV news coverage of national, state and local election campaigns on-air, online and via mobile devices. A cornerstone feature of Commitment 2012 will be “12 in 12” – a pledge of a minimum 12 minutes’ airtime for daily political news and candidate-discourse coverage per weekday and, where possible, on weekends, in the 30 days leading up to the Primary and General elections at each of its news stations. This represents a 20% increase – or some 25 additional hours for a total of 150 hours group-wide over the 30-day period – from the 10 minutes daily which Hearst first pledged in 2006.

  • Philanthropic Options for Newspaper Owners Final
    PHILANTHROPIC OPTIONS FOR NEWSPAPER OWNERS: A PRACTICAL GUIDE JOHN S. AND JAMES L. KNIGHT FOUNDATION — Nicco Mele October 5, 2019 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY PHILANTHROPICOPTIONS NEWSPAPER OWNERS: FOR A GUIDE PRACTICAL An emerging class of news businesses is modeling a promising path to sustainability — one drawn from the community itself. Their solution: pursuing nonprofit status rather than the strictly for-profit corporate form, embarking on greater engagement with philanthropic models that reimagine how local news is funded. Local news organizations play a fundamental role in educating and informing citizens about what is happening in their communities. Although historically this role has been fulfilled by a for-profit corporation, it is well-aligned with IRS guidelines for tax-exempt nonprofit organizations. From public radio stations to the newly formed American Journalism Project, non-profit local journalism is in a period of rapid expansion across the United States. The success of the nonprofit local news startup The Texas Tribune — now in its 10th year of operation — has inspired the creation of the American Journalism Project, a $50 million venture philanthropy fund to invest in nonprofit local news startups. In a different approach, ProPublica (a nonprofit focused exclusively on investigative reporting) launched the ProPublica Local Reporting Network in 2018. The purpose of the network is to bring ProPublica’s investigative resources (funded by philanthropy) to strengthen and amplify local reporting, many of which are for-profit newsrooms. Other nonprofit news initiatives have emerged (including Report for America and the Table Stakes Project), but the fact remains that the overwhelming majority of local reporting in the United States is done by journalists employed by for-profit entities.

Circuit Rule 29(d), undersigned counsel for amici curiae certifies that a separate brief is necessary to provide the perspective of media organizations and reporters whose reporting depends on access to court records. Access to such records allows the press to inform the public about the judiciary, the criminal justice system, surveillance trends, and local crime. Access to the type of surveillance-related records sought here would also inform the press about when the government targets journalists for surveillance and how existing press protections, which shield journalistic work product from intrusive government surveillance, apply to journalists’ electronic data.

  • Tampa Bay Times Pulitzer Prize Winning Advocacy of Fluoridation
    The Tampa Bay Times won its ninth Pulitzer Prize on Monday for a series of editorials last year by Tim Nickens and Daniel Ruth after the Pinellas County Commission moved to stop putting fluoride in the drinking water, affecting the dental health of 700,000 people in the county. As Nickens and Ruth wrote in the last of the 10 editorials submitted for the Pulitzer Prize in Editorial Writing, "It took nearly 14 months, an election and the clarion voice of Pinellas County voters to persuade county commissioners to correct a serious error in judgment." And the newly reconstituted commission quickly moved to vote to restore fluoride to the water system. Here is the Pulitzer nominating letter from Times Editor Neil Brown, with links to the 10 editorials. To the judges: In October 2011, the Pinellas County Commission turned back the clock. The commission, pressured by antifluoride zealots and tea party conservatives, abruptly voted to stop adding fluoride to the drinking water. The commissioners ignored established science and the public health, and in January 2012 the Pinellas water system suddenly became one of the nation’s largest without fluoridated water. More than 700,000 residents no longer benefited from what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention calls one of the nation’s greatest health care advances. The Tampa Bay Times editorial board went on mission to correct this travesty. With original reporting and persuasive arguments, Tim Nickens and Dan Ruth educated readers and delivered a clarion call for action on behalf of those who need fluoridated water the most: the poor families and the children of Pinellas County.

  • Law As Source: How the Legal System Facilitates Investigative Journalism
    YALE LAW & POLICY REVIEW Law as Source: How the Legal System Facilitates Investigative Journalism Roy Shapir Legal scholarshave long recognized that the media plays a key role in assuring the proper functioning of political and business markets Yet we have understudied the role of law in assuring effective media scrutiny. This Article develops a theory of law as source. The basicpremise is that the law not only regulates what the media can or cannot say, but also facilitates media scrutiny by producing information. Specifically, law enforcement actions, such as litigationor regulatory investigations, extract information on the behaviorofpowerfulplayers in business or government. Journalists can then translate the information into biting investigative reports and diffuse them widely, thereby shapingplayers' reputationsand norms. Levels of accountabilityin society are therefore not simply a function of the effectiveness of the courts as a watchdog or the media as a watchdog but rather a function of the interactions between the two watchdogs. This Article approaches, from multiple angles, the questions of how and how much the media relies on legal sources. I analyze the content of projects that won investigative reportingprizes in the past two decades; interview forty veteran reporters; scour a reporters-onlydatabase of tip sheets and how-to manuals; go over * IDC Law School. I thank participants in the Information in Litigation Roundtable at Washington & Lee, the Annual Corporate and Securities Litigation Workshop at UCLA, several conferences at IDC, the American Law and Economics Association annual conference at Boston University, and the Crisis in the Theory of the Firm conference and the Annual Reputation Symposium at Oxford University, as well as Jonathan Glater, James Hamilton, Andrew Tuch, and Verity Winship for helpful comments and discussions.

  • 2019 Reporters Workshop Notebook
    2019 ­ Reporters' ­ Workshop ­ O C T OBE R 2 8 -2 9 , 2 0 1 9 Tallahassee, Florida floridabar.org/news/resources/rpt-nbk #TFBRW2019 Presented by: The Florida Bar Media & Communications Law Committee 2019 Florida Bar Reporter's workshop ­ Locations & information ­ DoubleTree Hotel - 101 S. Adams St, . Florida Supreme Court - 500 S. Duval St. The Reporters' Workshop is primarily an educational experience, not a news event. This policy on quotation of remarks furthers that primary goal. Comments during the program. Unless otherwise specified, all comments made as part of the program, in remarks addressing the group as a whole, are on the record. A speaker may unilaterally, before or promptly after a comment, designate it as off the record, meaning it is for the reporters' information only and may not be quoted or attributed in any manner. In such a circumstance, a reporter is welcome to follow up with the speaker in an interview that is made clearly on the record and may ask the speaker to remove or modify the off-the-record restriction. Informal discussions. All comments made in informal conversations, including mealtime conversations, among participants and panelists are on background, meaning the speaker may not be quoted by name or title but may be quoted in a generic manner that reasonably masks the speaker's identity. A speaker may designate a greater restriction before or immediately after making a comment. A participant is free to use the information for other reporting. In publishing any information gained at the workshop, participants are urged to reflect upon the possible adverse effects on future programs from how the material is used.
