Caught in the Net
Caught in the Net An analysis of the Guardian’s first venture into online journalism Simen Hunding Strømme Master Thesis in Modern International and Transnational History Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Spring 2020 Caught in the Net An analysis of the Guardian’s first venture into online journalism i © 2020 Simen Hunding Strømme Caught in the Net An analysis of the Guardian’s first venture into online journalism Simen Hunding Strømme www.duo.uio.no ii Abstract This thesis examines the early period of internet journalism in Britain between 1993 and 2001. By undertaking a qualitative case study of London based newspaper, the Guardian, the thesis explores how newspapers started to consider online journalism as not only a new way of doing business, but as a completely new genre of journalism. In 1998, the Guardian was ranked the ninth biggest among twelve national daily newspapers in terms of circulation, but by 2001 its website was the most popular newspaper website in the country. The Guardian’s venture into online journalism began in 1995, when a team of developer known as the New Media Lab was tasked to develop a strategy for online publishing. Over the next few years, several web projects were launched, with varying level of success before pinnacling in a network of websites, Guardian Unlimited in 1999. The increasingly larger focus on the internet as both a tool and platform for publishing, which did not unfold without discontent and critique from advocates of traditional news making, changed the way the Guardian and other newspapers saw their media product and themselves as a company. -

Conference 2014 Speaker Series: an Interview with Cathy Newman
Conference 2014 Speaker Series: An Interview with Cathy Newman blogs.lse.ac.uk/polis/2014/03/20/conference-2014-speaker-series-an-interview-with-cathy-newman/ 2014-3-20 Cathy Newman is a presenter at Channel 4 News. Last year, she broke the story of allegations against life peer and former Liberal Democrat Chief Executive Lord Channel 4 News Team Rennard of inappropriate behaviour towards women. Having been refused an interview with Nick Clegg on multiple occasions, her persistent attempts to get in touch with the Lib Dem party leader have attracted attention: first on a radio show (as “Cathy from Dulwich”) and more recently when she asked him a question at a conference on mental health. Before going to Channel 4 News in 2006, she worked at the Financial Times as a media then political correspondent. She will be speaking at next week’s Polis Annual Journalism Conference on a panel focused on discussing how journalists sometimes have to ‘cross the line’ in pursuit of a story to hold power to account. Free tickets, as well as information on our line-up, are available here. Our keynote speakers are Alan Rusbridger, Editor of the Guardian, and Ian Katz, Editor of Newsnight. Interview by Polis reporter Emma Goodman. The title of your session is ‘Crossing the line’ – have there been times as a journalist when you have actually thought, ‘I’m crossing a line right now’ or has it just happened more gradually? As a journalist, I feel I have to go out on a limb on stories with pretty much every investigation I do, because what makes a story a really good story is telling people something they don’t know. -
MICHAEL GOVE - MEETINGS with MEDIA ORGANISATIONS – 6 May 2010 – 15 July 2011
MICHAEL GOVE - MEETINGS WITH MEDIA ORGANISATIONS – 6 May 2010 – 15 July 2011 This list sets out the Secretary of State’s meetings with senior media executives for the period May 2010-July 2011. This includes all meetings with proprietors, senior executives and editors of media organisations for both newspapers and broadcast media. It does not include those meetings with journalists that ended up in interviews that appeared in the public domain, either in newspapers and magazines. It may also exclude some larger social events at which senior media executives may have been present. This is the fullest possible list assembled from the Secretary of State’s Parliamentary diary, their departmental diary, personal diary and memory. Every effort has been taken to ensure that this is as accurate as possible but the nature of such an extensive exercise means something may have inadvertently got missed. Declaration of interest: The Secretary of State worked for the BBC from 1991 to 1995 and News International from 1996 to 2005. He wrote a weekly column for News International from 2005 to 2009. His wife currently works for The Times and has done so since 1998. Secretary of State, Michael Gove Date of Name of Media Organisation Purpose of Meeting Meeting 19 May 2010 Rupert Murdoch (News Corporation), Dinner and general Rebekah Brooks (News International), discussion plus more than ten others. 28 May 2010 Bill Kristol (Weekly Standard), plus Dinner and general several others discussion 30 May 2010 Alan Rusbridger (The Guardian), Jon Dinner at the Hay -
Wikileaks Should Be Designated a 'Foreign Terrorist Organization,' Rep
WIKILEAKS SHOULD BE DESIGNATED A 'FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION,' REP. PETE KING FUMES BY Helen Kennedy DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER Originally Published:Sunday, November 28th 2010, 3:06 PM Updated: Monday, November 29th 2010, 10:57 AM WikiLeaks, a whistle-blower website, has released hundreds of thousands of classified documents via several news outlets. Washington's biggest state secrets - from Arab leaders privately begging for air strikes on Iran to American diplomats spying on UN officials - were laid bare Sunday in a massive online document dump. The WikiLeaks publication of 250,000 diplomatic cables stripped the veil from long-classified projects, exposed back-channel communications and revealed unflattering comments about foes and friends alike. Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini called it "the 9/11 of world diplomacy." An angry White House said people trying to help the U.S. abroad may die because of the leak. Secretary of State Clinton was calling allies in full damage-control mode. Rep. Pete King (R-L.I.) urged U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to designate WikiLeaks a "foreign terrorist organization," saying it "posed a clear and present danger to the national security of the United States," and to prosecute founder Julian Assange for espionage. WikiLeaks says it plans to release more documents "in stages over the next few months." Among the many eye-opening revelations: - Saudi Arabia has repeatedly urged the United States to launch air strikes on Iran to destroy its nuclear program. "Cut off the head of the snake," the Saudi ambassador to Washington urged Gen. David Petraeus, who commands U.S. -

Whirlwinds of Change Epilogue Timeline Bibliography Acknowledgements Also by Alan Rusbridger Notes Index Introduction By early 2017 the world had woken up to a problem that, with a mixture of impotence, incomprehension and dread, journalists had seen coming for some time. News – the thing that helped people understand their world; that oiled the wheels of society; that pollinated communities; that kept the powerful honest – news was broken. The problem had many different names and diagnoses. Some thought we were drowning in too much news; others feared we were in danger of becoming newsless.
