  • A Study Into the Value Placed on Numeracy As Symbolic Capital Within the Journalistic Field
    Steve Harrison A STUDY INTO THE VALUE PLACED ON NUMERACY AS SYMBOLIC CAPITAL WITHIN THE JOURNALISTIC FIELD A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Submission date: November 2020 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to acknowledge my current and previous Directors of Studies Dr Rex Li and Prof. Chris Frost and my supervision team, along with colleagues and friends at Liverpool John Moores University, for their advice and encouragement. I have benefitted greatly from conversations with them on matters specific and general. Thanks are due to Numeracy journal editors Len Vacher and Nathan D. Grawe and to the readers and referees of sections of this thesis for their forbearance and suggestions, some of which have been incorporated into this project, much to its benefit. Any errors or oversights in the following are of course entirely my own. On a personal note, I would like to thank my parents for their unstinting support, and my partner Craig for his patience (and countless cups of tea and coffee) over the seven years during which this project has come to fruition. 1 ABSTRACT Journalists need a clear understanding of numbers and to be comfortable communicating them if they are to perform their role of informing the public and holding power to account. That is because numbers are at the heart of almost every topic of public interest: from health, wellbeing and politics to sport, the economy and business. Yet the popular image of the journalist is that of a barely-numerate wordsmith, at home with prose but bewildered by percentages.

  • Appendix 1 a Personal Account of the Murders of Julia and Will Pemberton and the Subsequent Domestic Homicide Review
    Appendix 1 A Personal Account of the Murders of Julia and Will Pemberton and the Subsequent Domestic Homicide Review ‘You are causing the police angst. You could lose the coroner his pension’. I knew the man saying this to me on the telephone. It was only three months after my sister Julia Pemberton and her son Will Pemberton were murdered. It was not a threatening call but it was my first realisation that responding to tragedy by establishing what happened leading up to these horrific acts and using it to influence change was not necessarily a universally agreed first response. The caller later became a supporter of our enquiries. On the 18 November 2003, Alan Pemberton, Julia’s husband and Will’s father, fatally shot them both and then turned the gun on himself. My family was pressuring the authorities because this tragedy occurred despite my sister seeking assistance from Thames Valley Police. After the murders, my family campaigned for around five years to identify the actions and inactions of relevant agencies in the lead up to these murders. Three months after the tragedy, we had a meeting with the police which proved unsat- isfactory. Then we had an inadequate inquest from which vital information was withheld. There followed more meetings with the police at which they started to reveal more information but ultimately they would not accept that there had been system failure. We lacked confidence in their resolve to change. Eighteen months after the murders, in 2005, we secured a domestic homicide review, a pilot for the domestic homicide reviews (DHRs) anticipated in the 2004 Domes- tic Violence Crime and Victims Act and made law 13 April 2011.
