  • The Perceived Credibility of Professional Photojournalism Compared to User-Generated Content Among American News Media Audiences
    Syracuse University SURFACE Dissertations - ALL SURFACE August 2020 THE PERCEIVED CREDIBILITY OF PROFESSIONAL PHOTOJOURNALISM COMPARED TO USER-GENERATED CONTENT AMONG AMERICAN NEWS MEDIA AUDIENCES Gina Gayle Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/etd Part of the Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons Recommended Citation Gayle, Gina, "THE PERCEIVED CREDIBILITY OF PROFESSIONAL PHOTOJOURNALISM COMPARED TO USER-GENERATED CONTENT AMONG AMERICAN NEWS MEDIA AUDIENCES" (2020). Dissertations - ALL. 1212. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/1212 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT This study examines the perceived credibility of professional photojournalism in context to the usage of User-Generated Content (UGC) when compared across digital news and social media platforms, by individual news consumers in the United States employing a Q methodology experiment. The literature review studies source credibility as the theoretical framework through which to begin; however, using an inductive design, the data may indicate additional patterns and themes. Credibility as a news concept has been studied in terms of print media, broadcast and cable television, social media, and inline news, both individually and between genres. Very few studies involve audience perceptions of credibility, and even fewer are concerned with visual images. Using online Q methodology software, this experiment was given to 100 random participants who sorted a total of 40 images labeled with photographer and platform information. The data revealed that audiences do discern the source of the image, in both the platform and the photographer, but also take into consideration the category of news image in their perception of the credibility of an image.

  • Shaping 21St Century Journalism Leveraging a “Teaching Hospital Model” in Journalism Education by C.W
    New America Foundation Shaping 21st Century Journalism Leveraging a “Teaching Hospital Model” in Journalism Education By C.W. Anderson, Tom Glaisyer, Jason Smith and Marika Rothfeld, October 2011 Report Summary As the media industry evolves to meet the challenges of the emerging digitally-networked era, so too are journalism schools. Democracy and healthy local communities require this evolution. As the media industry reshapes itself, a tremendous opportunity emerges for America‖s journalism programs. Neither news organizations nor journalism programs will disappear, but both must rethink their missions, particularly now that many more people can be journalists (at least, on an occasional basis) and many more people produce media than ever before. The Walter Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State Journalism education programs have an University (Photo credit: Sean Horan/Flickr) opportunity to become “anchor institutions” in the emerging informational ecosystem. Many schools have long embraced elements of this vision, but satisfying the information needs of communities will require schools to take on all the challenges of engaging as serious and valuable producers of meaningful journalism. To date, some programs have avoided or shirked these responsibilities, failing to leverage broadcast licenses as part of their educational mission or inadequately supporting the pursuit of meaningful journalism by students. A move to embrace a community news mission would add a powerful momentum to the recommendation of the Knight Commission Report on the Information Needs of Democracies that “higher education, community and nonprofit institutions [should increase their role] as hubs of journalistic activity and other information-sharing for local communities.” This call was echoed in the recently issued Federal Communications Commission report on the changing media landscape in a broadband age.

    July 21, 2015 Syracuse University's Newhouse School begins online master's in communications program with inaugural cohort of 31 students First Communications@Syracuse classes start today SYRACUSE, N.Y., July 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Courses in Communications@Syracuse, the new online master's degree program offered by the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, will begin today with an inaugural class of 31 students from 9 states across the U.S. Communications@Syracuse offers students from anywhere in the world the opportunity to earn a Master of Science in Communications from one of the world's leading communications schools through an engaging online platform, in-person immersion experiences and a unique curriculum specifically developed to address today's changing media environment.

Each specialization requires foundational courses in multimedia storytelling, social media and digital communications systems, as well as other courses. "Offering our first online degree program is an important milestone for the Newhouse School," says Dean Lorraine Branham. "The online medium is critical to the way communication happens today and we intend to fully utilize a blend of online and in- person learning experiences to provide students with the skills they need to expand their career opportunities. We are excited to welcome this talented group of online students, many of whom have thriving careers and would not have been able to move to Syracuse to take part in the Newhouse experience." The inaugural Communications@Syracuse students come from diverse educational and professional backgrounds.

Okay, I want to talk a little bit about the structure we have and talk about how we think that structure works, how it’s kind of a little bit of the evolution of it, how we’re structured today, how we work with the newsroom and obvious strengths and weaknesses. I think, I’m not sure if everybody here know this but we kind of going against the tide right now in newsroom structure in that we actually still maintain separate online and print newsrooms. So the CEO of the Interactive Division, my boss, and Bo Jones is the publisher of the Post, both report to Don Graham. So we’re completely separate organizations and have stayed that way despite a lot of changes from a lot of our, a lot of other folks in the industry. In fact, physically our newsroom is not even in the Post newsroom. We’re in Arlington, Virginia, about 5 miles or 10-15 minutes from the Post building, which comes with its challenges. A quick history of cross platform communication at the Post.
