  • Sir Simon Jenkins Journalist and Author
    Sir Simon Jenkins Journalist and Author Media Masters – February 11, 2016 Listen to the podcast online, visit www.mediafocus.org.uk Welcome to Media Masters, a series of one-to-one interviews with people at the top of the media game. Today, I’m joined by the editor and columnist Simon Jenkins. Simon might be the grandest of British journalism grandees. Knighted for services to the industry in 2004, he edited the London Evening Standard and the Times, covered politics for The Economist, and founded the Sunday Times book pages. Now known for his views on politics and culture as a columnist at the Guardian, he has also held public appointments at British Rail, English Heritage, and was a member of the Millennium Commission. Having recently ended his six-year term as chairman of the National Trust, he has written more than 15 books on topics as diverse as English churches, Thatcher, and of course, the media. Simon, thank you for joining me. Thank you! Did you always want to be a journalist? How did you get started? I think I wanted to be a politician – I know very few journalists who didn’t really want to be a politician somewhere deep down inside them. But I started journalism at university at Oxford, I have a totally conventional education story, doing PPE at Oxford – that’s philosophy, politics and economics – I worked on Cherwell, I left, went into academia, and was an academic for about two or three years, but I craved journalism. Went into journalism, I was quite political, I’d got involved in sort of left- wing Tory pressure groups and so on, but all the time I just thought, “Politics is boring compared to journalism,” and it was just… journalism sucked me in.

But that’s good news for both sides of the divide, argues a PR academic It is time to admit that the two disciplines of journalism and PR are two sides of the same coin and that there is now complete freedom of movement between them. What’s more, with PR generally being better remunerated and flourishing, whereas journalism – print and broadcast – seems to be in a constant state of crisis, has public relations emerged from being seen by journalism as a poor and distant relation to taking on the role of a rich and powerful cousin? With the continuing growth of jobs in the PR industry – in business, politics, government and with exploding demand for PR online – more and more students who might have been attracted to journalism courses are now opting for PR degrees. Drawn to London, as the centre of European media, they arrive in increasing numbers from all over the world.

  • The Educational Backgrounds of Leading Journalists
    The Educational Backgrounds of Leading Journalists June 2006 NOT FOR PUBLICATION BEFORE 00.01 HOURS THURSDAY JUNE 15TH 2006 1 Foreword by Sir Peter Lampl In a number of recent studies the Sutton Trust has highlighted the predominance of those from private schools in the country’s leading and high profile professions1. In law, we found that almost 70% of barristers in the top chambers had attended fee-paying schools, and, more worryingly, that the young partners in so called ‘magic circle’ law firms were now more likely than their equivalents of 20 years ago to have been independently-educated. In politics, we showed that one third of MPs had attended independent schools, and this rose to 42% among those holding most power in the main political parties. Now, with this study, we have found that leading news and current affairs journalists – those figures who are so central in shaping public opinion and national debate – are more likely than not to have been to independent schools which educate just 7% of the population. Of the top 100 journalists in 2006, 54% were independently educated an increase from 49% in 1986. Not only does this say something about the state of our education system, but it also raises questions about the nature of the media’s relationship with society: is it healthy that those who are most influential in determining and interpreting the news agenda have educational backgrounds that are so different to the vast majority of the population? What is clear is that an independent school education offers a tremendous boost to the life chances of young people, making it more likely that they will attain highly in school exams, attend the country’s leading universities and gain access to the highest and most prestigious professions.

  • Femininity, Consumption and Journalistic Professional Identity
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Goldsmiths Research Online 1 News and Shoes: Femininity, Consumption and Journalistic Professional Identity Hatty Oliver Goldsmiths College, University of London PhD Media and Communications, 2011 2 Abstract This thesis explores the professional cultures, capital and occupational identities of a group of women journalists working in contemporary London‐ based women’s magazines and newspaper supplements. I have mapped this journalistic subfield in order to answer questions about the gendering of hierarchies and structures in the wider journalistic field and the opportunities and limitations provided by women’s traditional associations with consumption. Commercial journalism created for, and by women, plays an increasingly important editorial and commercial role within journalism, but has received little academic attention. In this research I demarcate a distinct subfield of print journalism that I term feminine journalism. This female oriented subfield is concerned with lifestyle, fashion, celebrity and the body and extends across women’s magazines and newspapers. My research is based on analysis of qualitative semi‐structured interviews with a cross‐section of forty journalists from across the subfield. I use Bourdieu’s notion of habitus and field to interrogate the gendered journalistic cultures that mediate the production of feminine journalism. Through a detailed consideration of working practices, routines and occupational identities, I document a journalistic domain dominated by consumption, taste and aesthetics and inextricably enmeshed with the adjoining commercial fields of fashion and beauty brands. I explore the way in which the cultural and economic interlink to produce a version of commercial femininity, which helps to constitute subjective identities for both practitioners and readers.
