Muckraker Magazine a Project Exploring the Impact of Progressive Era Journalism US HISTORY JANUARY 2018 Muckraker Magazine A project exploring the impact of Progressive Era journalism. Overview In this simulation, you will be playing the part of American journalists in the year 1905 to see how photojournalists impacted reforms in the Progressive Era. Using primary sources from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, you will examine corruption and social problems in multiple arenas of American life. After spending three days analyzing conditions, you’ll work with a team of four fellow “muckraking” journalists to produce your own short magazine informing the public of your findings (more on this later). 1 2 3 EXPLORE ANALYZE EXPOSE Look at primary sources Critically examine the Expose the problems to get a firsthand view sources to understand you have just examined of life during this time. exactly what was really and demand reform! going on. 1 MUCKRAKERS MAGAZINE Who were the original muckrakers? In response to the many problems of the Gilded Age (1870-1920), there arose a new type of investigative journalist, intent on exposing issues in order to bring about reform. Unlike “yellow journalist,” who recklessly manipulated stories (and sometimes outright lied) in order to sell more newspapers, the muckrakers sought to raise public awareness in the hopes of genuine change. Muckraking journalism emerged on the large- scale around 1900, although individual reporters started uncovering scandals as early as the 1870s, when Lincoln Steffens brought to light the massive corruption in St. Louis under William “Boss” Tweed and Julius Chambers “We muckraked, not exposed abuse of mental patients in Brooklyn. because we hated our Several magazines gained a reputation as world, but because we muckraking publications, most notably McClure’s Magazine. There were many loved it. We were not journalists associated with muckraking, hopeless, we were not including quite a few women. Some of the cynical, we were not most notable muckraking journalists included Upton Sinclair, Nellie Bly, Ida Tarbell, Jacob bitter.” Riis, and Julius Chambers. ~ Ray Stannard Baker WHERE DID THE TERM ‘MUCKRAKER’ ORIGINATE? The term originally comes from John Bunyan’s 1678 work, Pilgrim’s Progress, where there is a man with a muck-rake who can only look downward at the filth through which he is sifting with his rake. President Theodore Roosevelt was the first to apply the term to journalists, in a April 14, 1906 speech before the House of Representatives. His purpose in making the allusion was to caution against the potential problems in continually focusing on the negative aspects of society, while at the same time expressing the societal value of such reporters, so long as what they published was truth. Unfortunately, reporters took quite a bit of offense at the term! 2 MUCKRAKERS MAGAZINE two photographs to practice with — any of INVESTIGATIVE QUESTIONS the nine options will work splendidly.

    Defamation Bill [HL], Bill 127 of 1995-96: Law and Procedure Research Paper 96/60 16 May 1996 This paper seeks to give a brief outline of the law of defamation and to explain the main provisions of the Defamation Bill [HL] which is due to have its Second Reading on 21 May 1996. Although the paper deals mainly with the changes proposed to law and procedure in England and Wales it is pointed out where the changes affect Scotland and Northern Ireland. This paper should be read in conjuction with Research Paper 96/61 which discusses parliamentary privilege in the context of the law of defamation and the interpretation of 'proceedings in Parliament'. Helena Jeffs Home Affairs Section House of Commons Library Summary The Defamation Bill [HL] is intended to "simplify this complex area of law and procedure, and fit well with current developments in the conduct of civil litigation generally".1 In brief the Bill seeks to introduce the following amendments to the law and procedure in actions for defamation: a new statutory defence to supersede the common law defence of innocent dissemination and to concentrate on the concept of responsibility for publication a new and more streamlined defence of unintentional defamation which would be available to a defendant who is willing to make an 'offer of amends' (ie to pay compensation assessed by a judge and to publish an appropriate correction and apology) a one-year limitation period for actions for libel, slander or malicious falsehood a new fast-track offer of amends procedure intended to provide a prompt and inexpensive remedy in less serious defamation cases new powers for judges enabling them to dispose of a claim summarily and to grant damages of up to £10,000 There has long been consensus on the need for reform of defamation law and procedure, particularly in view of certain high awards of damages by juries and the high costs of proceedings.

Book printing was started in 15th & 16 th Century in Europe. • The emergence of Print Media created doubts in the minds of the rulers and they took it as a threat against their rule. The rulers presumed that people would become aware of their rights and they will challenge the authority. So most of the rulers in Europe took it as a revolt and declared capital punishment for the persons involved in Mass Media. In 1663, the last capital punishment was given to a publisher because he published a book of an anonymous writer. This book contained the idea that rulers are accountable for their deeds and decisions to the masses and if any ruler does not feel himself accountable then masses have the right to overthrow his rule. This was the last capital punishment that was awarded in the history of England.

    10.2478/nor-2013-0105 Nordicom Review 34 (2013) Special Issue, pp. 75-88 Changing Magazine Journalism Key Trends in Norwegian Women’s Magazines Brita Ytre-Arne Abstract This article analyses developments in Norwegian magazine journalism in the last decade, focusing on the broad and varied spectrum of magazines targeting women. The analysis is based on multiple methods and data sources, aiming to connect the production and reception of magazine journalism to the texts of magazines. This article will identify and discuss five key trends: fragmentation, digitalization, Nordic inspiration, redefinition of the political and beautification. The trends are discussed in light of public sphere theory and selected orientations in Nordic journalism research. Keywords: magazines, lifestyle journalism, fragmentation, digitalization, public sphere Introduction In the past ten years, a series of technological, financial, political and cultural processes have contributed to profound changes in magazine journalism. Some developments are similar in magazines and other media, while other challenges and opportunities are particular to different forms of journalism on different media platforms. This article analyses changes in magazine journalism, using Norway as a case and relating the discussion to a Nordic context. The magazine market of the Nordic countries has been described as pan-Nordic (Harrie 2009), and there are particularly close relations between the Scandinavian coun- tries both in terms of ownership and journalistic content.
