The effect of membership in the Society of Environmental Journalists on inclusion of enabling information in stories on water quality ABSTRACT This study builds on Rossow and Dunwoody's finding that enabling information in environmental stories is tied to editors' concerns for the issues. If membership is an indicator of concern, stories by SEJ members should include more enabling information from different sources, include more graphics, and influence the story's placement. In a look at water quality stories from 1993, none of these differences was found to correspond with membership when comparing member and non-member groups. 1 The effect of membership 1 The effect of membership in the Society of Environmental Journalists on inclusion of enabling information in stories on water quality In 1993, over 100,000 people were sickened from contamination to the municipal water supply in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.' It was an event heavily covered by national as well as local media. This contamination incident is only one of countless environmental risk issues being covered in daily newspapers throughout the country. Environmental risk communication informs the public of the danger, probability of occurrence/recurrence, causes and preventions of the risk in question. The effectiveness of risk communication holds implications for society, since the information can be used by the public to put demands on business or government to alleviate the risk to the community.2 One type of information is called "enabling" or "mobilizing" information. This is information that would be useful for readers trying to get more information about or to act on the reported issues. Environmental concern has been growing since the 1950s. In a 1994 public opinion poll, 61.1% of respondents believed that the government was "spending too little" to solve environmental problems.3 Since 1970 the year of the first Earth Day celebration media 1 Associated Press, "Milwaukee water suspect in illness," Capital Times; April 8, 1993: 1A. 2 Kandice L.

The effect of membership 2 coverage of the environment has also increased.4 A need to improve the quality of this reporting was identified in the 1980s, and the Society of Environmental Journalists was founded in 1990. The society recognized that "the public is largely uninformed about environmental issues, and much of what it does know stems from mass media."5 The mission of SEJ, through programs and services, is to "advance public understanding of environmental issues by improving the quality, accuracy, and visibility of environmental reporting....SEJ acts to raise awareness among editors and other key decision makers in the media on the basic importance of environmental reporting."6 The purpose of this study is to determine whether membership in the Society of Environmental Journalists has a quantifiable impact on the product the environmental risk communication story. Following the pattern of a previous study by Rossow and Dunwoody,7 which found that editor concern for environmental issues increases the inclusion of enabling information, this study will compare enabling information by SEJ members and non-members by looking at water quality stories around the time of the Milwaukee water contamination. If reporter concern for the environment equates with membership in SEJ, then a similar increase in enabling information should be found. The effects of membership on journalists' stories has 4 C.R.

But if journalist concern furnishes the public with a better product that is, more useful information then their is a need to identify factors leading to a better product. LITERATURE REVIEW Need for Enabling Information The need for enabling information, while not called such, was voiced by environmental writer Bill McKibben in his 1992 book. He said we are living in an "age of missing information" about environmental issues.8 Since elites are considered to have an established connection to sources of influence, it can be surmised that the mass public is most at loss in the decision-making process when enabling information is missing.9 While missing information can lead to ignorance, enabling information can help bridge that gap between the elites and the public by providing an easy link between knowledge and action. The inclusion of mobilizing information, such as a phone number, address or details on a meeting, can increase public participation in the issue by reducing the time and resources the public must exert to follow up on an issue. The mobilizing effect can be further enhanced if the reader brings to the story concern for the issues being discussed.1° The finding that over half the 8 Shanahan and McComas, "Television's Portrayal of the Environment," 147. 9 Steven E.

  • Photojournalism Photojournalism
    Photojournalism For this section, we'll be looking at photojournalism's impact on shaping people's opinions of the news & world events. Photojournalism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Photojournalism is a particular form of journalism (the collecting, editing, and presenting of news material for publication or broadcast) that employs images in order to tell a news story. It is now usually understood to refer only to still images, but in some cases the term also refers to video used in broadcast journalism. Photojournalism is distinguished from other close branches of photography (e.g., documentary photography, social documentary photography, street photography or celebrity photography) by complying with a rigid ethical framework which demands that the work be both honest and impartial whilst telling the story in strictly journalistic terms. Photojournalists create pictures that contribute to the news media, and help communities connect with one other. Photojournalists must be well informed and knowledgeable about events happening right outside their door. They deliver news in a creative format that is not only informative, but also entertaining. Timeliness The images have meaning in the context of a recently published record of events. Objectivity The situation implied by the images is a fair and accurate representation of the events they depict in both content and tone. Narrative The images combine with other news elements to make facts relatable to audiences. Like a writer, a photojournalist is a reporter, but he or she must often make decisions instantly and carry photographic equipment, often while exposed to significant obstacles (e.g., physical danger, weather, crowds, physical access).

  • How to Fund Investigative Journalism Insights from the Field and Its Key Donors Imprint
    EDITION DW AKADEMIE | 2019 How to fund investigative journalism Insights from the field and its key donors Imprint PUBLISHER RESPONSIBLE PUBLISHED Deutsche Welle Jan Lublinski September 2019 53110 Bonn Carsten von Nahmen Germany © DW Akademie EDITORS AUTHOR Petra Aldenrath Sameer Padania Nadine Jurrat How to fund investigative journalism Insights from the field and its key donors Sameer Padania ABOUT THE REPORT About the report This report is designed to give funders a succinct and accessible introduction to the practice of funding investigative journalism around the world, via major contemporary debates, trends and challenges in the field. It is part of a series from DW Akademie looking at practices, challenges and futures of investigative journalism (IJ) around the world. The paper is intended as a stepping stone, or a springboard, for those who know little about investigative journalism, but who would like to know more. It is not a defense, a mapping or a history of the field, either globally or regionally; nor is it a description of or guide to how to conduct investigations or an examination of investigative techniques. These are widely available in other areas and (to some extent) in other languages already. Rooted in 17 in-depth expert interviews and wide-ranging desk research, this report sets out big-picture challenges and oppor- tunities facing the IJ field both in general, and in specific regions of the world. It provides donors with an overview of the main ways this often precarious field is financed in newsrooms and units large and small. Finally it provides high-level practical ad- vice — from experienced donors and the IJ field — to help new, prospective or curious donors to the field to find out how to get started, and what is important to do, and not to do.

  • Inclusive Management and Citizen Journalism: Journalists Supported by Citizens
    Inclusive Management and Citizen journalism: journalists supported by citizens Excerpt from the Methodology of Inclusive Management Intellectual Output, currently being designed and tested as part of the Erasmus+ project RTV - Key Competences in Media production for Radio, Film and Television By summarizing up the best definitions identified (“inclusive as the action or state of including, or of being included, within a group or structure in a constant exchange - among participants - of competences, skills, experiences, etc.” and “management as a guide to a group of people working in the organization and coordinating their efforts, towards the attainment of the common objective”), it is possible to define inclusive management as “a guide to a group of people working in the organization and coordinating their efforts, towards the attainment of the common objective. This guide is achieved also through the inclusion, within the mentioned group, of new people providing the group itself with their competences, skills, experiences and – above all – their personal perspective”1. The context in which the inclusive management’ methodology is well exploited is the labour world, where inclusive management becomes a pattern of practices by public managers that facilitate the inclusion of public employees, experts, the public, and politicians in collaboratively addressing public problems or concerns of public interest. Applying the inclusive management’ approach within the mass media industry means listing different approaches: collaborative learning: teachers involving learners; participation of experts: schools involving professional journalists; Citizen journalism: journalists supported by citizens. One way in which Inclusive management is adjusted to the mass media industry is represented by the citizen journalism (also renamed after open source journalism, street journalism, grassroots journalism, participatory journalism and democratic journalism).

  • Sharing the News: Journalistic Collaboration As Field Repair
    International Journal of Communication 9(2015), 1966–1984 1932–8036/20150005 Sharing the News: Journalistic Collaboration as Field Repair LUCAS GRAVES1 University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA MAGDA KONIECZNA Temple University, USA Organized journalism in every era offers examples of news sharing: cooperative practices by which rival news outlets work together to produce or distribute news. Today, this behavior is being institutionalized by certain emergent news organizations. To understand news sharing, we argue, requires attention to how these journalists seek to not only practice but repair the field of journalism. This article analyzes news sharing as a form of field repair, drawing on ethnographic studies of investigative news nonprofits and professional fact-checking groups. We argue that journalism’s “high- modern” era, with its broad alignment of economic and professional goals, highlighted competitive rather than collaborative elements of newswork. As that alignment unravels, journalists are engaging in explicit news sharing in pursuit of two intertwined goals: to increase the impact of their own reporting and to build institutional resources for public- affairs journalism to be practiced more widely across the field. Keywords: public affairs journalism, news nonprofits, fact-checking, collaboration Introduction Journalism is usually seen as a competitive occupation, defined by the rivalry among individual reporters and among news organizations. This is not without reason. Journalists guard their sources and stories jealously, sometimes even from peers in the same newsroom. Covering a story first or best brings professional rewards, while being beaten by a rival is a badge of shame for reporter and news outlet alike. Most important, almost all news organizations—even noncommercial ones—depend for their survival on attracting loyal audiences.

  • Hearken–Curious City
    HEARKEN–CURIOUS CITY AN INNOVATIVE MODEL FOR “PUBLIC-POWERED” JOURNALISM Local That Works: Public Radio Case Study No. 2 By Richard Tait and Mark Fuerst October 2016 LOCAL THAT WORKS The premise of these four case studies, prepared for the Eastern Region Public Media PUBLIC RADIO SUPER-REGIONAL CONFERENCE (Oct. 25–27, 2016): stations need and want to be “more local." The evidence we have collected suggests they will succeed in doing so by filling gaps in local news coverage and playing a larger role in the daily life of their communities. It is safe to assume that all stations would do more of this—except for the fact that "being local" takes a good deal of money and staff. In an era of declining tax support, rural and small-market stations are getting squeezed. Through no fault of their own, their long-term prospects are being eroded by a combination of forces, including the inherent financial limits of a small local audience and small local economies; increasing ease of access to national program material; and increasing costs associated with multiplatform service. This is not a new problem. The "large/small" divide has permeated system politics. Meanwhile, the growing "capacity gap" between smaller and larger stations—in membership, staffing and digital tools—has been well documented by the PUBLIC MEDIA FUTURES FORUM. If public broadcasting is to retain its NEAR-UNIVERSAL REACH, the system will have to develop ways to sustain the service of small-market, especially rural, stations, and find ways to empower them to be both sustainable and more local.

Based upon this simple logic journalists have experimented with cross-border collaborative journalism for decades but more intensely so since the late 1990ies. Especially investigative journalists are establishing networks, while mainstreaming of networked journalism only emerges slowly. In this article I argue that it is time to attempt a methodology of cross-border collaborative journalism in order to more systematically develop the model, to share it with peers and the next generation and to open it for scholars to analyse and criticise it. The article is a practitioner’s contribution based upon own experience and a series of interviews with cross-border journalism
