JOURNALISM Historical|Dictionary|Of MASS COMMUNICATIONS • JOURNALISM Historical Dictionaries of Professions and Industries, No. 4 Eaman Journalism, the discipline of gathering, writing, editing, and reporting news, applies to various media— including but not limited to newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and the Internet. The word jour- Historical|Dictionary|of nalist entered the language in the early 18th century to designate a new kind of writer, about a century before journalism made its appearance. Though it has varied in form, the practice gradually distinguished itself from other forms of writing by focusing on the present, taking an eyewitness perspective, and relying on everyday language. This Historical Dictionary of Journalism explores the Ross Eaman genre and its evolution over the centuries by way of JOURNALISM a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on different styles of journalism, different types Historical|Dictionary|of of media, and important writers and editors.

There are lazy and incompetent journalists—and editors—and others who just want to promote their own views; but on the whole, journalists have been crucial over the past several centuries and will probably remain so well into the future, even if their work assumes new forms. Journalism is also an industry, since it costs money to produce newspapers, newsletters, and even blogs, so financial concerns enter the picture and muddy the waters. While there have been some very enlightened, pro- gressive, and even fearlessly crusading newspapers, there have also been many of lesser value, more interested in just providing entertain- ment or turning a profit. This Historical Dictionary of Journalism shows both sides of the pic- ture. The dictionary presents entries on some of the finest newspapers as well as those of lesser repute, many exceptional journalists as well as others the profession would rather forget, major advances such as in- vestigative reporting and more questionable practices such as yellow journalism, and important topics like censorship and the continuing struggle for freedom of the press. It covers a long period of time, from the very first practitioners whose news was often sung to the most re- cent whose news appears in a computerized format. Last but not least, it traces the history of journalism in a large number of countries in a lengthy chronology and then an introduction, which analyzes individual developments thematically, showing how the discursive practices of journalism have evolved within a larger political, economic, and cul- tural context. Despite the breadth of coverage, the field of journalism vii viii • EDITOR’S FOREWORD history is so large that any work of this kind can constitute only a start- ing point for further research and study, so the substantial bibliography organizes recent literature in the field to facilitate this task. This new addition to the Historical Dictionaries of Professions and Industries series was written by Ross Eaman, who has been a full-time member of faculty in the School of Journalism and Communication at Carleton University in Canada since 1980. His earlier publications in- clude The Media Society: Basic Issues and Controversies (1987) and Channels of Influence: CBC Audience Research and the Canadian Pub- lic (1994). This volume builds on his interest in communication and de- mocracy and the role of public broadcasting, but it reaches further, cov- ering the lengthy history of journalism within a global context. It also provides the wide variety of topics, issues, and considerations related to understanding journalism as an industry and profession. Jon Woronoff Series Editor Preface The story of journalism is first and most visibly a tale of changing me- dia, from ballads and chronicles to newsletters and newsbooks, news- papers and magazines, and eventually newscasts and websites. But this story begins to come alive only when the focus shifts to the texts con- veyed through those media and the way these have evolved as a form of discourse over the past five centuries. Most of the components of this discourse—the news report, the editorial, the column, the feuilleton, the interview, the photograph, the inverted pyramid, the news lead, the by- line—are familiar enough to us. But when, how, and why these compo- nents first emerged as a product of culture is more complex than we might imagine. In most cases, their genesis is tied to a cast of characters who generally nurtured and shaped rather than “invented” them. Some of these figures are well known: Daniel Defoe, Joseph Addison, Ben- jamin Franklin, James Gordon Bennett, Joseph Pulitzer, William T. Stead, Walter Lippmann, Henry Luce, and Edward R. Murrow. But many others are largely unknown: from Pietro Aretino, John Wolfe, Ben Jonson, and John Crouch in the 16th and 17th centuries to William “Memory” Woodfall, Francis Jeffrey, Faddej Bulgarin, Liang Qichao, Walter Williams, and Lillian Ross in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. In several cases, these pioneers were the owners or producers of a jour- nalistic enterprise or product. But their number also includes practicing journalists, social critics of journalism, and journalism educators. Each of these groups has had an important impact on journalism as it exists today and will continue to influence its nature in accordance with its own goals and ideals. ix Acronyms and Abbreviations ABC American Broadcasting Company AEJMC Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Com- munication (U.S.) AFP Agence France-presse AIM Accuracy in Media (U.S.) ANG American Newspaper Guild ANPA American Newspaper Publishers Association AP Associated Press (U.S.) ASJMC Association of Schools of Journalism and Mass Commu- nication (U.S.) ASNE American Society of Newspaper Editors BBC British Broadcasting Corporation CBC Canadian Broadcasting Corporation CBS Columbia Broadcasting System (U.S.) CJR Columbia Journalism Review (U.S.) CPI Committee on Public Information (U.S.) CPJ Committee to Protect Journalists (New York) C-SPAN Cable Satellite Public Affairs Network (U.S.) EJC European Journalism Centre (The Netherlands) ENPA European Newspaper Publishers Association (Belgium) FCC Federal Communications Commission (U.S.) FRC Federal Radio Commission (U.S.) GIZh State Institute of Journalism (Soviet Union) Glavlit Main Administration for Literary and Publishing Affairs (Soviet Union) IAPA Inter-American Press Association (Latin America) IFJ International Federation of Journalists (Belgium) IJ Institute of Journalists (Great Britain) INA Irish

  • Bees on Paper: the British Press Reads the Fable
    Erasmus Journal for Philosophy and Economics, Volume 9, Issue 1, Spring 2016, pp. 124-141. http://ejpe.org/pdf/9-1-art-6.pdf Bees on paper: the British press reads the Fable MATTEO REVOLTI Goethe University Frankfurt am Main Abstract: The British press played a significant role by influencing public debates following the publication of Mandeville’s The fable of the bees. Between 1714 and 1732, British newspapers published over three hundred reports on the Fable that circulated in the form of editorials and advertising announcements. These publications not only offered general information on the Fable, they also fueled controversy surrounding Mandeville’s text. In this article I will analyse how the British press introduced the Fable to its readers and influenced its reception. Specifically, my aim is to show how the Fable’s reception was shaped by the political and economic orientation of the newspapers in question. In doing so, I will analyze appearances of the Fable and its critics in the British press. I will then examine the language and topics used by two popular essay-papers, the Mist weekly journal and the Craftsman, who presented Mandeville’s book. Keywords: newspapers, advertisings, Nathaniel Mist, Robert Walpole, Jonathan Wild, South sea bubble Bernard Mandeville submitted his last publication, A letter to Dion, to the printer James Roberts in 1732. In this seventy-page essay, the Dutch author responded to George Berkeley, who had attacked the Fable in his Alciphron or the minute philosopher (1732). Mandeville ironically maintained that the Irish bishop had not read a single page of his work but only reproduced the criticisms of the Fable set forth in sermons and newspapers.

Moreover, even if popular is arguable that popular sentiment in early eighteenth-century opinion was sometimes orchestrated or influenced by an elite, England had only a limited impact on the way the country the fact that it was useful, appropriate or necessary for them was run.1 For much of this period, government was decided to do so, was arguably more significant. Whether ‘genuinely’ by a tight circle dominated by the court and the aristocracy, extra-parliamentary in origin or sponsored by the political elite, whilst many of the public outcries which did take place were popular opinion emerged as an important factor in the nation’s constructed and encouraged by members of the social and political life. The newspaper press was increasingly associated political elite, rather than stemming spontaneously from those with the formation and articulation of such sentiment. ‘out-of-doors’. However, despite the political dominance of a small class, the secretive and traditional form of politics that they practised was increasingly under attack from a popular print culture that espoused openness; it was often critical of government, and during periods of acute political crisis was able to influence the way politicians chose to act.
