The Development of Swedish Business Journalism Historical Roots of an Organisational Field Företagsekonomiska institutionen Department of Business Studies The Development of Swedish Business Journalism Historical Roots of an Organisational Field Maria Grafström Doctoral Thesis at Uppsala University 2006 ABSTRACT Grafström, M., 2006, The Development of Swedish Business Journalism: Historical Roots of an Organisational Field. 209 pp. Distributor: Uppsala University, Department of Business Studies, Box 513, SE-751 20 Uppsala, Sweden. ISSN- 1103-8454. Contemporary Swedish business journalism is an established organisational field with shared practice within and across organisations. Using a historical perspective, this dissertation investigates the early formation of this field and the formation of a shared meaning system for business journalism. Addressing the question of how and why the field emerged, the study contributes to institutional approaches in organisational analysis and theories about field development. Drawing on a qualitative longitudinal study, the analysis explores the source of today’s field of business journalism and examines the individuals, organisations, and activities that, during the 1960s and 1970s, laid the groundwork for subsequent field development. Five Swedish newspaper organisations are examined in detail: two business weeklies, Affärsvärlden and Veckans Affärer; the business daily, Dagens industri; and two general dailies, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet. In particular, the study analyses the competencies that was considered necessary for producing business news; the models that functioned as positive examples for business journalists; and the accepted ways of selecting and presenting business news. The study concludes that nascent field formation developed through institutional entrepreneurial processes in the interplay among individuals, organisations, and societal developments. As individuals carried institutional logics from their previous affiliations in business or journalism, they contributed to the nascent field formation – not by breaking with their past, but by continuing, in a new setting, previous ways of approaching their work. The two institutional logics of business and journalism also permeated the newspaper organisations in which these individuals were active. The organisations functioned as platforms that enabled the early practice while setting boundaries for its development. The results suggest that fields develop incrementally and that institutional entrepreneurial processes embody greater continuity and stability than previous research in the area has suggested.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I am indebted to many people for helping me with this dissertation. To everyone who gave of their time, during local and long-distance conferences, at seminars, meetings, and coffee breaks: Thank you sincerely for engaging in discussions and for sharing your thoughts, suggestions, and questions with me. Without the encouragement of my supervisors, I may not have even thought of entering academia. It all began with a master thesis about “the pink press” – the topic of this dissertation – in which I had the pleasant opportunity to work for and collaborate with Kerstin Sahlin-Andersson and Lars Engwall. From that day onward, both Kerstin and Lars have supported and guided my research with their helpful and thoughtful comments and advice. Thank you. I am equally grateful to Stefan Jonsson, my third supervisor, who entered the process after it had begun, but quickly became a valuable contributor in our discussions and debates. Thank you for your inspiration and for challenging me with your tricky questions. I am grateful for the encouragement and general friendship of the many colleagues in the department – both inside and outside the organisation theory group: Christina, David, Eva, Helena, James, Josef, Karolina, Katarina, Linda, Pauline, Sofi, Åse, and others. I owe special thanks to many of you for reading and commenting my work at various stages. I appreciate the discussions with and comments by research colleagues at the many meetings and seminars in the GEMS- project. The co-operation in the Nordic Bizpress-project has also been inspiring for this work. In addition, my opponent at the final seminar, Peter Kjaer, provided me with insightful feedback and questions that helped me to clarify my ideas and finalise this dissertation. A special thank you goes to my “roommate” from our first day as doctoral students: Karolina. Thank you for your patient support, your astute comments, and your willingness to engage in never-ending discussions! I also want to thank Emma and Jenny – and again Helena, Karolina, and Pauline – for invaluable “get- togethers”. Whether in the archipelago of Stockholm or in the sunny coast of Spain, our trips have offered me support and amity and our discussions have been a great source of inspiration and impetus for me to move on with the project. Much empirical research is dependent on the engagement of practitioners. I am indebted to the many business journalists, editors in chief, and “newspaper makers” who consented to be interviewed and to share their experiences with me. Many of you kindly contributed with reviews and comments on earlier drafts of this dissertation, particularly Hasse Olsson, Lennart Låftman, Olle Rossander, Ragnar Boman, and Ronald Fagerfjäll. A special thank you goes to Sören Larsson for graciously sharing his private archival data with me. Invaluable editorial help came from Nina Colwill and Dennis Anderson, to whom I owe many thanks. They not only helped to improve my writing in this dissertation, but have also significantly improved my understanding of the structure and many quirks of the English language. And last on this page, but certainly not last in my thoughts, I would like to express my gratitude to family and friends for your care and support along the process. Special thanks go to my parents, my sister, and Juha.

Heidelberg: Springer, 289- 306. 2 Recommend, Tweet, Share: User- Distributed Content (UDC) and the Convergence of News Media and Social Networks Mikko Villi [email protected] Janne Matikainen [email protected] Irina Khaldarova [email protected] Abstract The paper explores how the participatory audience dis- seminates the online content produced by news media. Here, user- distributed content (UDC) acts as a conceptual framework. The con- cept of UDC refers to the process by which the mass media con- verge with the online social networks through the intentional use of social media features and platforms in order to expand the number of content delivery channels and maximize visibility online. The focus of the paper is both on the news media’s internal use (social plugins) and external use (Facebook pages, Twitter accounts) of social media tools and platforms in content distribution. The study draws on the examination of fifteen news media in seven countries. The data con- sists of almost 50,000 news items and the communicative activity surrounding them. The three main findings of the study are: (1) the audience shares online news content actively by using social plugins, (2) the activity of the news media in social media (especial- ly on Facebook and Twitter) impacts the activity of the audience, and (3) the news media are more active on Twitter than on Face- 3 book, despite the fact that the audience is often more active on Face- book.

  • Räckviddsrapport ORVESTO Konsument 2020:3 ORVESTO Konsument 2020:3
    Räckviddsrapport ORVESTO Konsument 2020:3 ORVESTO Konsument 2020:3 Idag den 16 februari lanseras mediernas räckvidder enligt ORVESTO Konsument 2020:3. Undersökningen genomfördes under perioden 1 september – 31 december och totalt deltog 13 435 personer i mätningen. I denna rapport redovisas primärt tryckta medier och deras digitala utgåvor. I Sesame finns som vanligt data för samtliga huvudmedier, sociala medier etc. Varumärkets totala räckvidd Att analysera den tryckta printprodukten utan att ta hänsyn till varumärkets totala räckvidd är att bara berätta ena sidan av utvecklingen av printvarumärken. Därför uppmanar vi alla till att studera både den digitala och det analoga fotavtrycket och att se hur de samverkar. Den digitala mätningen baseras på en passiv mätning av 20 000 individers surfbeteende på mobil, appar och desktop. Vi ser i mätningen att variationen är mycket stor. Vissa har långt kvar till sin digitala ”tipping point” (det ögonblick då man i snitt har fler digitala än analoga läsare) och vissa har nått den sedan länge medan ytterligare en kategori har ett digitalt fotavtryck som helt enkelt är för litet att mäta på ett tillförlitligt sätt. Tidskrifter Totalt har de redovisade tidskrifterna 18 394 000 bruttoläsare. Det betyder att varje person läser i snitt 2,3 av de redovisade tidskriftstitlarna. Denna siffra har gått ned något under det senaste året. I 2020:2 var motsvarande siffra 2,5. I 2020:1 var den 2,7 och i 2019:3 var den 2,8. För information om räckviddsutvecklingen över tid hänvisar vi till vår hemsida www.kantarsifo.se där det finns en pdf-fil med tidsserie titel för titel tillbaka till 2012.

    Blurred Boundaries of Media: The Circulation of a Corporate News Story on the Web Maria Grafström, Ph.D. Karolina Windell, Ph.D. Dept. of Business Studies Dept. of Business Studies Uppsala University Uppsala University Box 513, 751 20 Uppsala, Sweden Box 513, 751 20 Uppsala, Sweden Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] Paper submitted to the 26th EGOS Colloquium 2010, sub-theme 19, “Institutions of Management Knowledge: Development and Role.” 1 Introduction I see how Internet changes the journalisms and the circulation. And the old strengths that the newspaper and mainstream media have are no longer valid. Issues can be put on the agenda by grassroots or enthusiasts. Distribution is no longer a problem (Interview Zachrisson 2010, chief at the business weekly VA.se). Over the past few years, new forms of media have emerged. An increasing number of technologies for online communication has evolved, such as search engines, communities, chat rooms, wikis and blogs. These interactive online technologies are commonly named social media and have changed the conditions for publishing and distributing information. And as suggested by Zachrisson in the quote above – an increasing number of actors take part in news production and distribution on the Internet. Citizens, organizations, and corporations can contribute to the general news flow by publishing their own news. News content is, thereby, not only produced and distributed by traditional media, but by an increasing number of actors. The role of mainstream media is bound to change. From previous studies we know that media matters in the business life.
