  • How Uk News Providers Engage Young Adult Audiences (Aged 16-34) on Digital and Social Media Platforms
    ‘OLD NEWS, YOUNG VIEWS’ HOW UK NEWS PROVIDERS ENGAGE YOUNG ADULT AUDIENCES (AGED 16-34) ON DIGITAL AND SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS. by LEON HAWTHORNE A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of MA BY RESEARCH.

It begins with a comprehensive review of the most recent literature on incidental news exposure, personalisation, echo chambers and filter bubbles; combining this with analyses of key reports by industry and governmental sources. It proposes a new taxonomy of news consumption behaviours, and a new visual taxonomy of news using the RGB (red, green, blue) colour spectrum. Senior editors at ITV News, Channel 4 News, 5 News and Sky News were interviewed to provide insights into current digital strategies.

  • The International Media Coverage of China: Too Narrow an Agenda?
    Reuters Institute Fellowship Paper University of Oxford The international media coverage of China: Too narrow an agenda? by Daniel Griffiths Michaelmas Term 2013 Sponsor: BBC 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisors, James Painter and Rana Mitter, for their help and advice with this research. I am also very grateful to the staff at the Reuters Institute and the other Fellows for making my time at Oxford so interesting and enjoyable. Finally, a big thank you goes to my family for all their love and support. 2 Table of Contents Executive Summary 4 1. Introduction 7 2. Literature Review 9 3. Methodology 10 4. Results 12 5. Conclusions and Recommendations 18 Bibliography 20 Appendix: Articles in Content Analysis 21 3 Executive Summary China is an increasingly important player in global affairs but there is very little research on how it is presented in the international media. This matters because even in today's increasingly interconnected world the media can often influence our perceptions of other countries. This study presents a content analysis of news stories about China in the online editions of the New York Times, BBC News, and the Economist over two separate weeks in the autumn of 2013. In total, 129 stories were analysed. Due to the time constraints of a three month fellowship it was not possible to compile a broader data set which might have offered greater insights. So this paper should not be seen as a definitive study. Instead, it is a snapshot intended to open a discussion about representations of China in the global media and pave the way for further research.

  • Sir Harold Evans Former Editor, the Sunday Times Media Masters – December 20, 2018 Listen to the Podcast Online, Visit
    Sir Harold Evans Former Editor, The Sunday Times Media Masters – December 20, 2018 Listen to the podcast online, visit www.mediamasters.fm Welcome to Media Masters, a series of one-to-one interviews with people at the top of the media game. Today I’m here in New York, and joined by Sir Harold Evans, former editor of the Sunday Times. A reporter at 16, he completed National Service in the RAF before graduating from Durham University. He quickly rose through the ranks at the Manchester Evening News and became editor of the Northern Echo at 31. Revered throughout Fleet Street, his name is synonymous with the golden age of investigative journalism. During his 14-year tenure at the Sunday Times, he campaigned for and won compensation for children affected by thalidomide. He moved to the US in 1984 where he was founding editor of Condé Nast Traveler. Now editor- at-large at Reuters, he is also a best-selling author of a number of books on American history and journalism. Sir Harry, thank you for joining me. Pleasure. Even though you’re from Yorkshire. Yes. I know we... It’s the War of the Roses isn’t it? So we agree to set aside our differences for the next hour? I think we should, otherwise we’ll never get out of the studio. Well, indeed. You lot won, of course, but we’ll move swiftly on from that. It is a pleasure to talk to you, Sir Harry, I’ve been looking forward to this for many years. When I started this podcast three years ago, I remember saying to my wife at the time, “We need some big names on like Harold Evans.” So I’m very pleased.

    Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy Discussion Paper Series Leading the Way to Better News: The Role of Leadership in a World Where Most of the “Powers That Be” Became the “Powers That Were” By Geoffrey Cowan Shorenstein Center Fellow, Fall 2007 University Professor and Annenberg Family Chair in Communication Leadership, University of Southern California February 15, 2008 #D-44 © 2008 President and Fellows of Harvard College. All rights reserved. Abstract During the past several years, as traditional news operations have faced sharp declines in circulation, advertising, viewership, and audiences, and as they have begun to make a seemingly unrelenting series of cuts in the newsroom budgets, scholars and professionals have been seeking formulas or models designed to reverse the trend. During those same years, many of the major news organizations that dominated the landscape a generation ago, those that David Halberstam called “The Powers That Be,” have lost their leadership role and been absorbed by other companies. This paper argues that while there is good reason to worry about the decline in what might be called “boots-on-the-ground” journalism, there are reasons to be hopeful. While most of those concerned with the topic have urged structural changes in ownership, this paper argues that the key is leadership. To understand the demands on leaders, it is essential to understand which of three motives is most important to the publication’s owners: profits, influence, or personal prestige. Each motive presents distinct challenges and opportunities. Looking at the fate of a number of large media organizations over the past decade, the paper argues that the most important model for success is outstanding leadership that combines a talent for business, entrepreneurship and innovation with a profound commitment to great journalism.
