Sports Journalism Ethics in Broadsheet Newspaper Organisations in India Sports journalism ethics in broadsheet newspaper organisations in India, Australia and lish ng r E e ate e the UK et did th P an of D C ty st, Ph rsi oa ive C Un ine nsh Su alia str Au The study 0 Six media outlets: the Guardian, The Daily Telegraph; The Australian, The Sydney Morning Herald; The Hindu, The Times of India. 0 36 in-depth interviews with journalists (six from each sports department), and a content analysis of 4103 articles over three months in 2012. 0 Ethical issues Commercial influences Attribution Anonymous sources Ethics and commercial 0 Australia – journalistsmentions do not allow “advertising or other commercial considerations to undermine accuracy, fairness or independence” (MEAA 2013) 0 India – advertisements “must be clearly distinguishable from editorial matters” (Press Council of India 2010). 0 The UK – do not endorse advertisements or commercial products (NUJ 2013) 0 Picard states promotion of commercial aspects is not “immoral” or harmful to journalism”. But newspapers traditionally “placed greater emphasis on their roles as promoters of public interests and on becoming a trusted institution of society that represented the people” (Picard 2004: 54). Journalists against commercial influences 0 “It seems a shame that you have to mention an isotonic drink to have a really boring interview with someone” – The Telegraph, online staff member 0 “We’re not geared to promoting products” – The Australian, reporter 0 “It’s very sad. It’s hijacking a news person’s right. You’re not being honest to the reader” – TOI, reporter 0 “You’ve got to have complete editorial freedom” – the Guardian, subeditor Journalists accepting of commercial influences 0 “Five years ago I never even wanted to meet an advertising client. I would now regularly meet advertising clients” –SMH, sports manager 0 “It’s almost impossible to get a proper interview without some kind of commercial tie-in ... So much of it now comes through sponsors, either personal or competition sponsors. It would just be irrationally pure-minded to say you wouldn’t do it” – the Guardian, sports manager 0 “It’s a necessary evil” – The Telegraph, sports manager Types of commercial mentions 0 1195 articles out of 4103 had commercial mentions 0 Solicited mentions of sponsors; products; businesses; sponsored columns; “this interview provided by ...” 0 Unsolicited stadium names; series/match titles; team names 0 The most used unsolicited types Australia – stadiums UK – series or tournament names India – team names Types of commercial mentions in articles Total Unsolicited Solicited Both mentions The Sydney Morning 84 48 5 137 Herald 61.3% 35.0% 3.6% 100.0% 101 41 8 150 The Australian 67.3% 27.3% 5.3% 100.0% 118 70 15 203 The Guardian 58.1% 34.5% 7.4% 100.0% 167 88 35 290 The Daily Telegraph 57.6% 30.3% 12.1% 100.0% 135 61 27 223 The Hindu 60.5% 27.4% 12.1% 100.0% 118 64 10 192 The Times of India 61.5% 33.3% 5.2% 100.0% 723 372 100 1195 Total 60.5% 31.1% 8.4% 100.0% Attribution 0 Ethical requirement to avoid plagiarism 0 Three approaches 1) Credit explicitly “The Herald won’t pinch a story” – SMH, reporter 2) Obscure the source He/she told a newspaper 3) Do not credit “We don’t.

But there is not always strict adherence to the guidelines 0 Commercial influences form a significant aspect behind the production of the sports pages 0 Unclear if all items are attributed. Small amounts of stories are, but journalists admit to relying heavily on competitors 0 The financial climate in the West – falling circulation, advertising, and fewer jobs – can create extra pressure, possibly leading to ethical breaches .

  • Media Coverage of Climate Change: an International Comparison
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Central Archive at the University of Reading Article Environment and Planning C: Government Media coverage of climate and Policy 0(0) 1–25 ! The Author(s) 2016 change: An international Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav comparison DOI: 10.1177/0263774X16680818 epc.sagepub.com Ralf Barkemeyer Kedge Business School (Bordeaux), France Frank Figge Kedge Business School (Marseille), France Andreas Hoepner University of Reading, UK; Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden Diane Holt University of Essex, UK Johannes Kraak INSEEC Business School (Bordeaux), France Pei-Shan Yu University of Reading, UK; Stockholm School of Economics, Sweden Abstract We present an international comparison of broadsheet newspaper coverage of climate change. We employ two complementary theoretical lenses, multiple streams theory and institutional theory, to explore why climate change has become headline news in some countries but has received comparatively little coverage in others. The study utilises a worldwide sample across 41 different countries for the year 2008, covering 113 leading national broadsheet newspapers. A cross-sectional regression model is used to identify whether and how a range of contextual factors impact coverage of climate change. To a certain extent, a country’s direct exposure to climate change and the measures that have been taken to combat global warming influence the position of climate change on the media agenda. Crucially, however, we identify a number of contextual factors that impact climate change-related media coverage in different national contexts. In particular, we find a significantly positive relationship between regulatory quality and levels of media coverage.

  • Caring for the Hindu Patient
    Caring for the Hindu Patient Most Hindus in Britain come from Gujarat, in western India, or from east Africa. However, Hindus divide into different sects whose beliefs and philosophies are quite different and practices may vary. SIGNIFICANT TERMS KARMA - Hindu doctrine teaching that what the individual does in this life will affect him in the next. DHARMA - Living of a good and virtuous life which frees the soul from the cycle of death and rebirth. AYURVEDA - Well-defined philosophy of life advocating regular diet, sleep, defecation, cleanliness of body and clothing, as well as moderation in physical exercise and sexual indulgence. A Hindu patient may adhere to some aspects of this and want to discuss his/her care accordingly. BRAHMIN - The highest Hindu caste from which the PANDIT (priest) is chosen. HARIJAN - Where the Hindu caste system still has a hold this is the lowest Hindu caste (untouchables). Menstruating women and mourners can be seen as ritually unclean and therefore untouchable. MANDIR - Hindu Temple. BHAGAVAD GITA - Chief of the Hindu holy books. SPECIAL MODESTY - Is very important. Hindu women can be very reluctant to undress for CONSIDERATIONS examination. Female doctors for female patients wherever possible, and same- sex nursing is preferred. Disregard of modesty can cause extreme distress. Sensitivity to it can make communication with the patient very much easier. Discomfort or pain in the genito-urinary or bowel areas is often not mentioned, especially if a spouse is present. This can raise sensitive nursing issues which need to be carefully addressed. HYGIENE - Hindus need running water, or a jug, in the same room as a toilet.
