  • Power, Communication, and Politics in the Nordic Countries
    POWER, COMMUNICATION, AND POLITICS IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES POWER, COMMUNICATION, POWER, COMMUNICATION, AND POLITICS IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES The Nordic countries are stable democracies with solid infrastructures for political dia- logue and negotiations. However, both the “Nordic model” and Nordic media systems are under pressure as the conditions for political communication change – not least due to weakened political parties and the widespread use of digital communication media. In this anthology, the similarities and differences in political communication across the Nordic countries are studied. Traditional corporatist mechanisms in the Nordic countries are increasingly challenged by professionals, such as lobbyists, a development that has consequences for the processes and forms of political communication. Populist polit- ical parties have increased their media presence and political influence, whereas the news media have lost readers, viewers, listeners, and advertisers. These developments influence societal power relations and restructure the ways in which political actors • Edited by: Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard Kristensen, & Lars Nord • Edited by: Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard communicate about political issues.

Addressing the attitudes on media regulation among journalists and editors in light of the recent development in the Norwegian market, the result shows massive and wide-spread support for the current press subsidy system among Norwegian journalistic professionals. There are only small differences in the attitudes if we compare journalists´ workplace and medium. The editors, however, tends to be more uncertain in their support of the system than regular journalists.

  • Journalism and the Political Structure. the Local Media System in Norway
    NORDICOM REVIEW Journalism and the political structure The local media system in Norway Helle SjøvaagI, Truls André PedersenII & Ole Martin LægreidIII I Department of Media and Social Sciences, University of Stavanger, Norway II Department of Information Science and Media Studies, University of Bergen, Norway III Uni Research, Norwegian Research Centre (NORCE) Abstract This article assumes a media system perspective on the local news media structure in Nor- way, using a dataset of 847,487 news articles collected from 156 Norwegian news outlets in 2015–2017. Using a series of hypotheses, the analysis uses Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modelling to ascertain to what extent local journalism meets community information needs through infrastructure, output and performance. The analysis finds that the size of the publisher and the size of the community covered matter more for hard news coverage than regulatory factors. To that end, the results indicate that the Norwegian local media system is somehow shaped by the geography of the political landscape. The results and their contributions are discussed in light of media systems theory and local journalism structures. Keywords: local news media, media systems, political journalism, LDA, statistical analysis Introduction Media and political structures are intimately connected. In fact, media systems theory suggests that media models are rooted in the political and economic fabric of a society. Journalism, as such, is in a ‘close relationship to the political world’ (Hallin & Mancini, 2004: 13). While media systems theory assumes that this is the case at the level of the nation state, few attempts have been made to analyse this system connection within the nation state – such as the relationship between the local political decision-making level and local news media (for notable exceptions, see Powers et al., 2015; Wadbring & Bergström, 2017).

Journalists and other staff are losing their jobs, in a situation some call a "blood bath". This paper is about one big elephant in the jungle so to speak, to try to use a somewhat disproportionate metaphor.

Eleven German publishers defeated in lawsuit against Google Eleven publishing groups in the collecting society VG Media suffered a defeat in February In their dispute with Google about compensation for use of online content. The action was based on the ancillary copyright introduced in Germany in 2013. Google demanded a free licence from publishers and threatened that those who refused this licence would be moved to the bottom of search results. The Berlin district competition law court dismissed a suit from VG Media against Google claiming it was abusing its dominant market position and discriminating against publishers. The specific charge of the claimants was that the US company enforces free use of snippets of text and small thumbnail images. The judge accepted arguments that the Google approach is a "win-win situation" for all parties; - the searchers, the search engine providers as well as the producers of press content would all benefit of the snippets, it was said.
