  • Religion in Danish Newspapers 1750–2018
    Continuity with the Past and Uncertainty for the Future: Religion in Danish Newspapers 1750–2018 HENRIK REINTOFT CHRISTENSEN Aarhus University Abstract The article examines the newspaper constructions of religion in Danish newspapers in a quantitative longitudinal analysis from 1750 to 2000 and a more qualitative analysis of recent news production from the last forty years. For the longitudinal part, the database of the digitiza- tion of Danish newspapers project is used. Using the available tools for quantitative data analysis, the article shows that the category of religion and world religions has been visible in Danish newspapers since 1750. The coverage of world religions is often related to the coverage of international news. Overall, the article documents a re- markable continuity of the presence of religion. Examining the more recent material qualitatively, the article shows that although many religions have been historically visible in the news, they have most recently become more frequent in the debate sections than in the news sections. It is primarily Islam that is debated. This is connected with a shift from religious diversity as part of foreign news coverage to domestic news coverage, related to changes in the surrounding Danish society. Nevertheless, the coverage of Islam also displays a remarkable continuity. Keywords: Danish newspapers, coverage of religion, secularization, reli- gious diversity The oriental question is one of today’s most pertinent questions. While some rejoice at the possible fulfilment of the probably quite reasonable wish to see the end of Turkish barbarism in Europe, others hope that this is a con- firmation of Islam’s impotence and the beginning of the eradication and disappearance of Islam from this world.

  • Distribution and Use of Image-Evoking Language Constructions in Written News
    10.1515/nor-2017-0212 Nordicom Review 28 (2007) 2, pp. 93-109 Distribution and Use of Image-evoking Language Constructions in Written News EBBE GRUNWALD & JØRGEN LAURIDSEN Abstract Linguistic exposures are image constructions and some of the most distinctive mechanisms in the discourse community of journalism. By exposing the journalistic writers add focus, detail and substantiation to their sto- ries. Linguistic exposures are tools that evoke images in the readers’ minds and help es- tablish and improve the basis of interest and understanding. We are combining linguistic and statistical methods to investigate exposures in the news of five Danish national papers in order to determine how widespread it is, and with what force and impact the techniques are used. Our study contributes to existing knowledge by focusing on form rather than content. We investigate the creative use of specific structural elements of the language as the prevailing contact establishing tools of journalistic discourse. Our data are based on news from Berlingske Tidende, B.T., Politiken, Ekstra Bladet and Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten. Key Words: journalism, newspapers, written news, narrative tools, image constructions, metaphor Introduction Within recent years, several Danish and European newspaper companies have developed into media houses that integrate technologies and strategies that were formerly thought of as separate within journalism and communication.1 Furthermore, journalists are now being educated to act within cross-media environments and to handle newspaper jour- nalism on the same professional level as radio, television and especially web journal- ism. Multimedia competences are consequently going to be an integrated qualification among many modern journalists.

  • Experts in Election News Coverage Process Or Substance?
    10.1515/nor-2017-0104 Nordicom Review 32 (2011) 1, pp. 45-58 Experts in Election News Coverage Process or Substance? Erik Albæk, Christian Elmelund-Præstekær, David Nicolas Hopmann & Robert Klemmensen Abstract Previous studies have shown that experts appearing in the media are increasingly speculat- ing about trends and developments rather than presenting their own research. With respect to political journalism, this raises the question of whether increased use of expert sources has also led to an increased focus on process relative to substance in election news coverage. The study, conducted in 1998 and 2007, surveys what types of experts are referred to in the election coverage, what topics the experts comment on (in particular whether they focus on substance or process), and whether the number and types of experts as well as topics have changed over time. As expected, there is an increase in newspapers’ references to experts in their election campaign coverage. However, contrary to our expectations, in both 1998 and 2007, there is an equal number of articles referring to the election campaign’s political content (i.e., they mentioned the topics promoted by the political actors during the cam- paign) and to the political process. And extremely few articles included meta-discussions. Keywords: process news, meta-coverage, election coverage, experts Introduction Immediately after having taken office on April 5, 2009, Denmark’s new Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen criticized the media’s political commentators for focusing on the political process rather than on the substance of politics (politik.jp.dk, 17.04.09). In his critique, the Danish Prime Minister joined a host of voices not only in Denmark, but also internationally who find that political journalism has moved too far towards focusing on process rather than substance, and that this change has been reinforced by the media’s increased use of references to experts, pundits, political commentators and the like.

  • The Political Challenges of Community-Level PVE Practices: the Danish Case of Copenhagen Vs
    The political challenges of community-level PVE practices: The Danish case of Copenhagen vs. Aarhus on dialoguing with extremist milieus Teemu Tammikkoa1 aSenior Research Fellow, PhD, European Union Research Program, The Finnish Institute of International Affairs Abstract Article History In 2015 and 2016 two interesting cases occurred in Denmark regarding practices Received Jul 4, 2018 related to Preventing Violent Extremism (PVE): a community-level dialogue was Accepted Aug 6, 2018 discontinued with an extremist milieu in Copenhagen due to the specific worldview but allowed to continue in a similar situation in Aarhus. What were the Published Sept 28, 2018 reasons for this divergence? When examining the community-level political argumentation, an exclusion paradigm played a crucial role, but other factors, such as confusion about the core concepts and goals of PVE, the political dynamics at play, and the prevailing decision-making structures also influenced the differential outcomes despite the similarity of the situations. Since community-level PVE practices constitute a rapidly growing field, there is a lesson to be learned from the Danish cases: building coherent and continuous PVE practices is not only a matter for professional practitioners, but also calls for a solid understanding of its goals at the political level. Keywords: Preventing Violent Extremism, dialogue, Denmark, local politics Introduction Community level Prevention of Violent Extremism (PVE) has become one of the most rapidly growing fields of counterterrorism in the past few years (Malkki, 2016: 342). For example, in 2015 the UN Secretary-General highlighted the role of local actors, including municipalities and civil society in the implementation of effective prevention programmes (United Nations, 2015).

  • An Information Signature of Catastrophes in Legacy News Media
    News Information Decoupling: An Information Signature of Catastrophes in Legacy News Media Kristoffer L. Nielboa,b,c, Rebekah B. Baglinic, Peter B. Vahlstrupa,b, Kenneth C. Enevoldsena, Anja Bechmannb and Andreas Roepstorffc aCenter for Humanities Computing Aarhus, Jens Chr. Skous Vej 4, Building 1483, 3rd floor, DK-8000 Aarhus C, Denmark bDATALAB, School of Communication and Culture, Aarhus University, Helsingforsgade 14, DK-8200 Aarhus N, Denmark cInteracting Minds Centre, Jens Chr. Skous Vej 4, Building 1483, 3rd floor, DK-8000 Aarhus C, Denmark Abstract Content alignment in news media was an observable information effect of Covid-19's initial phase. During the first half of 2020, legacy news media became `corona news' following national outbreak and crises management patterns. While news media are neither unbiased nor infallible as sources of events, they do provide a window into socio-cultural responses to events. In this paper, we use legacy print media from Denmark to empirically derive the principle News Information Decoupling (NID) that functions as an information signature of culturally significant catastrophic event. Formally, NID provides input to change detection algorithms and points to several unsolved research problems in the intersection of information theory and media studies. Keywords Newspapers, Pandemic Response, Change Detection, Adaptive Filtering \Nothing travels faster than the speed of light with the possible exception of bad news, which obeys its own special laws." | Douglas Adams Introduction As the first wave of Covid-19 virus spread across the world, content alignment of newssto- ries could be observed both within and between media sources. During December 2019 and February 2020, Covid-19 news stories were, outside China, interspersed with news coverage of other events (e.g., Hong Kong protests, Iranian{American confrontation, Trump impeach- ment).

  • Hermed Indstilles John Hansen, Politiken, for Artikelserien Panama Papers, Og Søren Kristensen Og Michael Klint, DR Dokumentar, for ”Det Store Skattelæk”
    Hermed indstilles John Hansen, Politiken, for artikelserien Panama Papers, og Søren Kristensen og Michael Klint, DR Dokumentar, for ”Det store skattelæk”. Årets største og vigtigste undersøgende serie om international skattely indstilles til Cavlingprisen 2016, fordi afsløringerne har fremlagt afgørende ny viden om, hvordan velansete banker har været særdeles aktive til at oprette offshoreselskaber for velhavende kunder i skattely. Afsløringerne har globalt sat fokus på formuer gemt i skattely og omgåelse af hvidvaskregler på baggrund af det omfattende læk af 11,5 millioner interne dokumenter fra advokatfirmaet Mossack Fonseca i Panama. Det er i sig selv nyskabende, at 376 journalister fra 109 medier har samarbejdet om Panama Papers. Politiken og DR Dokumentar har haft adgang til enorme mængder af rådata og har selvstændigt, og ofte fra bar bund, fundet frem til de afsløringer, der var mest relevante i dansk sammenhæng. Det systematiske gravearbejde stod på i næsten et år, hvor de væsentligste danske historier blev identificeret i stakken af dokumenter. Flere hundrede danskere og danske selskabers konstruktionerne blev kulegravet, verificeret og holdt op mod offentlige tilgængelige dokumenter i flere lande. Konstruktionerne og hensigterne skulle vurderes af eksperter, revisorer og skatteadvokater, ligesom Nordea og de involverede danskere skulle forholdes oplysningerne. Journalisterne fra Politiken og DR har derudover været involveret og bidraget væsentligt til det internationale samarbejde om historierne. Blandt andet har et nært samarbejde med de nordiske lande betydet, at medierne i fællesskab formåede at grave endnu dybere i Nordeas særlige rolle Researchen har medført innovative dataløsninger, der kan komme fremtidige projekter med store datamængder til gavn. I det lys tegner det åbne samarbejde mellem medier interessante perspektiver for den undersøgende journalistik, der bliver stadig mere ressourcekrævende i takt med, at flere af de helt store sager kommer fra internationale lækager.
