Oxford University Press is a department of the University of Oxford. It furthers the University’s objective of excellence in research, scholarship and education by publishing worldwide. Oxford University Press Australia and New Zealand is committed to publishing high quality textbooks to meet the needs of Australian and New Zealand students. We aim to deliver to our authors the benefi ts that come from publishing with a focused and dedicated Higher Education team, operating as part of a large and international publisher. If you have an idea for a new textbook, we would be pleased to talk with you about it. Lucy McLoughlin Publishing Editor, Higher Education Email: [email protected] Look out for our locally published titles marked with this icon 13 Digit ISBN From January 2007, the ISBN will be expanded from a 10-digit (ISBN-10) to a 13-digit number (ISBN-13), which will bring it in line with the 13-digit European Article Number (EAN) used throughout the world to identify products in other retail and wholesale channels. This is happening because there is a shortage of ISBNs in some countries. For much of 2006 catalogues, order forms, and the OUP web site will display both ISBNs. Increasingly during the fi nal quarter of 2006, and certainly from 1 January 2007 only ISBN-13 will be displayed. OUP will continue to accept orders for titles that have an ISBN-10 after 1 January 2007. Titles published after that date will only have an ISBN-13.

This axiom of journalism is at no time more apposite than in this terror-ridden post-9/11 world. Increasingly, nation-states and activist bloggers are realising that the power of the media and those who control it set the agenda for world politics and governance. Yet journalism educators reflexively trust this maxim among their charges to received wisdom. Or pedantically go on presuming this aphorism to be ingrained in them by the time they finish high school media studies. In this, educators sell short students – and fall short of their larger responsibility to our broken world – neglecting the development of future journalists in a critical area of their calling. The might of the pen – or more precisely the keyboard in today’s electronically wired world – rests on two planks. The first is the substance of people dialogue and communication, mediated through the media.

  • Women's Struggle for Top Jobs in the News Media

    Women's Struggle for Top Jobs in the News Media

    Women’s Struggle for Top Jobs in the News Media Louise North School of Applied Media and Social Sciences Monash University, Northways Rd, Churchill, VIC 3842 [email protected] Abstract: This chapter provides an overview of the rise of women and women leaders in the Australian news media and outlines aspects of newsroom culture that continue to hamper women’s career progression. The chapter draws on a recent global survey and literature on the status of women in the news media. The most recent and wide ranging global data shows that while women’s position in the news media workforce (including reporting roles) has changed little in fifteen years, women have made small inroads into key editorial leadership positions. Nevertheless, the relative absence of women in these senior roles remains glaring, particularly in the print media, and points to a hegemonically masculine newsroom culture that works to undermine women’s progress in the industry. Keywords: gender and journalism, female journalists, print media, workforce Women have long been thwarted from key editorial leadership roles in news organisations around the world, and this continues today. Indeed, feminist scholars and some journalists suggest that the most common obstacle to career progress (and therefore attaining leadership positions) reported by women journalists is the problem of male attitudes.1 Even in Nordic countries where gender empowerment is rated high, patriarchal conservatism is noted as a central impediment to women’s career advancement in journalism.2 In the news media those in editorial leadership positions decide on editorial direction and content, and staffing – among other things – and therefore determine the newsroom makeup and what the consumer understands as news.

Cheque-book journalism and the law 8. Copyright 9. Payments in court cases: Contempt of Court Act 1981 10. Codes of conduct 11. Remedies 1. Introduction PressWise accepts that there are legitimate occasions when payments are made by editors in return for information. However enticing people to supply 'exclusive' information with offers of large sums of money is a pernicious corruption of the notion of press freedom, especially since the primary purpose is usually to boost the circulation/profits of a newspaper. The purchase of an 'exclusive' which has the effect of restricting access to important information or limiting the choice of the public should be avoided. PressWise advises people NOT to sell the exclusive rights to their story, largely because few appreciate the longer-term consequences of such 'deals'. They lose control of their lives and their image because they rarely retain the right to influence how the material is used or presented. Editorial control remains in the hands of the editor, and as a result many become 'victims of press abuse'. When a newspaper pays for an exclusive, rival publications seek to undermine it with 'spoilers'. Little thought is given to the effect this can have on the 'victim'. People who sell their story are regarded as 'fair game' in the circulation battles that ensue. Women in 'kiss and sell' stories often discover too late the risk of being branded for their actions; others are victimised because newspapers encourage informants to embellish the stories the papers want to buy.

  • In 1919, University-Level Classes for Australian Journalists Were First

    In 1919, University-Level Classes for Australian Journalists Were First

    Journalism Education in Australia: Educating Journalists for Convergent, Cosmopolitan, and Uncertain News Environments Penny O’Donnell n 1919, university-level classes for Australian journalists were frst offered at the University of Western Australia with the support Iof the Australian Journalists’ Association (AJA) (Coleman, 1992). Thereafter, journalism diploma programs were introduced to the following universities: Melbourne (1921), Queensland (1921), Sydney (1926), and Western Australia (1928) (Lloyd, 1999; Coleman, 1992) (see Table 1.1 for major journalism associations and journalist-related orga- nizations). For the AJA—a non-manual trade union formed in 1910 and amalgamated into the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance (MEAA) in 1992—higher education meant raising the social respect- ability of journalism. In the early 1900s, journalism was considered a low-status occupation populated by “hard-living” and “barely respect- able” bohemians (Coleman, 1992, p. 9). By 1940, however, most of these pioneering programs were discontinued since their experimental and inadequately funded curricula proved unpopular. Another signifcant disincentive was the prevailing industry belief that “real journ;alists were born not made” (Coleman, 1992, p. 10). Beginning in 1969, higher education reform set the stage for jour- nalism diploma programs to re-emerge in 10 newly established Col- leges of Advanced Education (Stuart, 1996). In 1988, journalism degree programs began proliferating throughout the country, and today 32 of Australia’s 40 universities offer them (Tanner, M. O’Donnell, Cullen, & Green, 2013). Even so, Australian journalists and academics continue to disagree, sometimes sharply, over the best preparation for professional journalism (P. O’Donnell, 2014, p. 226). For example, Australian news- papers routinely criticize journalism educators for teaching too much theory and ideology (Green, 2005).

Changarawe Master’s Thesis submitted for review to the department of Informatics and Media, Uppsala University May 2013 for obtaining the Master’s Degree of Social Science in the field of Media and Communication Studies. Supervisor: Ylva Ekström Date: 19th August.2014. 1 Acknowledgement I want to express my gratitude and acknowledge those who have helped me on the way toward completing this dissertation and who through their time and generous support have made me pursuit of a Master studies in Uppsala Media and Communication Studies possible and my graduate student life in Sweden enjoyable. As my thesis advisor, Ylva Ekström has provided essential intellectual and professional mentorship. She was excited about this project when I proposed it and has offered her continued sincere encouragement and support all the days. My work has benefited from her ability to see connecting lines and bring the research into focus when my own thoughts were clouded with too many ideas. I feel indebted to the Department of Media and Information and my colleagues at the Social Science Studies of the Uppsala University. I want to thank my colleagues in particular: Synthia Bintey Rahman without forgetting my brother Edmund Mabhuye with his effort and encouragement. I would like to thank the wonderful librarians in Ekonomikum Library who were consistently able to assist me and were very dedicated to solving any problem I might bring to them, always with a cheering smile.
