It is a significant opportunity for public service journalism, but there are also considerable risks. In particular, the new communication paradigm could heighten the dominance of technology platforms in the flow of information between people. According to a recent study, the introduction of artificial intelligence into newsrooms is considered a matter of ‘significant concern’ by two-thirds of newsroom managers, second only to funding issues. In the EBU News Report 2019, we analyse the opportunities as well as the threats, and try to find the best practices usable in public service journalism. For a more comprehensive view, we have conducted 75 interviews with subject-matter experts from the worlds of journalism, technology and academia. We have also studied relevant literature and articles and have been in close contact with leading authors who have published recently on the subject of AI and its relationship with the news industry. As in the 2018 report, 50 ways to make it better, we have formulated our recommendations on the basis of concrete examples. Supported by 30 case studies and 10 checklists (containing links to relevant further information), this report aims primarily to provide strategic and practical starting points for any newsroom looking to move to a data-informed model or invest in artificial intelligence. OUTCOMES The next wave in the digital transformation – in which large amounts of data will come into use and machine-learning technologies will be implemented in producing and distributing journalistic output – has fundamental implications for public service newsrooms (as well as for society at large). Even the most digitally advanced public- service news organizations have so far found it hard to adapt fully to the online environment and reach new audiences. Most of their online news audience are still older public-service loyalists, relationships with whom are still mostly maintained through broadcast channels. To be successful in this next wave, we argue that both cultural and technical challenges must be addressed. Strangely, we have found that unfounded fears of the new technologies and undue expectations regarding their capabilities sit side by side. More fundamentally, fears of loss of journalistic identity and autonomy persist. Wherever public service journalism is unable to overcome these fears, opportunities will be lost, raising the risk that organizations will lag behind. Our conclusion is that only some parts of journalism will be automated. However, virtually all jobs will undergo some degree of change. Newsroom staff will need a better grip on the technology. We group and analyse artificial-intelligence solutions according to their benefits: in smoothing operations, in enhancing distribution, in producing content. We also delve into the best uses of data for increasing the public service value of journalism. NEWS REPORT 2019 3 1. OPERATIONAL USE OF AI Adding AI on operational level increases efficiency in news production. However, newsrooms will not be able to stand out from the pack simply by using this kind of approach, as the technology will be widely available. Most of it is offered by third- party vendors. As the potential for differentiation for public service journalism is low in this respect, investing in these technologies – whenever the time is right – will be a matter of straight cost-benefit analysis. Operational AI is an important area with which to keep in step, but it is not where the most valuable benefits for public service lie. 2. STRATEGIC USE OF AI IN DISTRIBUTION To optimize distribution, we recommend that public service media (PSM) should invest strategically in personalization and the targeting of individual needs. Although there is some scepticism surrounding this, especially a fear of creating filter bubbles, personalization can enhance the value of public service journalism, as it enables useful content to be found by interested audiences. The new networked communication paradigm, in which people are in touch with a multitude of others, also requires this type of intervention. If high-grade content cannot be found, it cannot be consumed. We also stress, however, that ‘public service distinctiveness’ has to be coded into the algorithms to ensure societal value and avoid pitfalls and biases. 3.. STRATEGIC USE OF AI IN CONTENT CREATION AI can be used to contribute significantly to the public service mission when deployed strategically in content production. For example, new technologies and tools such as advanced data science and artificial intelligence can be adapted for use in the mission-critical area of investigative journalism. They can also be used to scrutinize algorithmic decision-making for bias and manipulation, and offer new ways to verify and check information, to maintain trust in journalism. As the technical capabilities for spreading fake news increase, effective verification will in the future require for technology and people to work together. We foresee significant opportunities arising for PSM from current progress in automated language technologies, such as automatic translation, voice recognition, and voice and text generation. For organizations operating in countries with more than one official language, or organizations collaborating internationally, these technologies represent a unique prospect. To seize every opportunity, organizations will have to overhaul work processes, cultures and even themselves. Having a data-savvy culture that understands audience diversity will heighten their ability to respond with relevant content. Public service newsrooms should move quickly from measuring only reach to including other metrics that more accurately estimate the real degree of connection with people. Successful AI projects are typically ‘owned’ by top managers, run by an in-house team, and have the size and scope that matches their strategic aims. Management must stress the value-based goals but then give sufficient autonomy to staff to attain those goals. In this highly competitive field, creating the right working environment is of paramount importance for attracting and retaining top talent. This implies investing in people: training existing staff, hiring people with diverse skill sets, driving cultural shifts and focusing on journalistic identity. The deployment of ‘machines’ rather than people is often considered an austerity measure. That is far from the truth. AI is expensive: it requires highly skilled work to be performed by highly paid specialists. In most cases, significant scale is needed to successfully build real-life machine-learning systems. In summary, public service journalism – to be able to respond to the changes in its environment– needs to collaborate more actively with national stakeholders and especially internationally, among organizations. Only by pooling resources can public service newsrooms counter the competitive threat from the ‘big tech’ platforms.

THE FOURTH WAVE OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION HAS ALREADY STARTED The fourth industrial revolution, under the auspices of artificial intelligence, is transforming work, lives, economies and democracies. For the news industry, this also marks the fourth wave of digital transformation after the online, mobile and social media. There’s much hype surrounding AI, but for those who see its potential, it could make public service journalism both more valuable to audiences and a more inspiring job to do in the first place. Yet the threat is that poor comprehension of AI and unfounded fears of the technology will cause legacy media to lag behind.

  • “Authentic” News: Voices, Forms, and Strategies in Presenting Television News
    International Journal of Communication 10(2016), 4239–4257 1932–8036/20160005 Doing “Authentic” News: Voices, Forms, and Strategies in Presenting Television News DEBING FENG1 Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics, China Unlike print news that is static and mainly composed of written text, television news is dynamic and needs to be delivered with diversified presentational modes and forms. Drawing upon Bakhtin’s heteroglossia and Goffman’s production format of talk, this article examined the presentational forms and strategies deployed in BBC News at Ten and CCTV’s News Simulcast. It showed that the employment of different presentational elements and forms in the two programs reflects two contrasting types of news discourse. The discourse of BBC News tends to present different, and even confrontational, voices with diversified presentational forms, such as direct mode of address and “fresh talk,” thus likely to accentuate the authenticity of the news. The other type of discourse (i.e., CCTV News) seems to prefer monologic news presentation and prioritize studio-based, scripted news reading, such as on-camera address or voice- overs, and it thus creates a single authoritative voice that is likely to undermine the truth of the news. Keywords: authenticity, mode of address, presentational elements, voice, television news The discourse of television news has been widely studied within the linguistic world. Early in the 1970s, researchers in the field of critical linguistics (CL; e.g., Fowler, 1991; Fowler, Hodge, Kress, & Trew, 1979; Hodge & Kress, 1993) paid great attention to the ideological meaning of news by drawing upon a kit of linguistic tools such as modality, transitivity, and transformation.

  • Towards Detecting Compromised Accounts on Social Networks
    Towards Detecting Compromised Accounts on Social Networks Manuel Egeley, Gianluca Stringhinix, Christopher Kruegelz, and Giovanni Vignaz yBoston University xUniversity College London zUC Santa Barbara [email protected], [email protected], fchris,[email protected] Abstract Compromising social network accounts has become a profitable course of action for cybercriminals. By hijacking control of a popular media or business account, attackers can distribute their malicious messages or disseminate fake information to a large user base. The impacts of these incidents range from a tarnished reputation to multi-billion dollar monetary losses on financial markets. In our previous work, we demonstrated how we can detect large-scale compromises (i.e., so-called campaigns) of regular online social network users. In this work, we show how we can use similar techniques to identify compromises of individual high-profile accounts. High-profile accounts frequently have one characteristic that makes this detection reliable – they show consistent behavior over time. We show that our system, were it deployed, would have been able to detect and prevent three real-world attacks against popular companies and news agencies. Furthermore, our system, in contrast to popular media, would not have fallen for a staged compromise instigated by a US restaurant chain for publicity reasons. 1 Introduction phishing web sites [2]. Such traditional attacks are best carried out through a large population of compromised accounts Online social networks, such as Facebook and Twitter, have belonging to regular social network account users. Recent become one of the main media to stay in touch with the rest incidents, however, demonstrate that attackers can cause havoc of the world.

  • 1 Television News Construction in Converging Environments
    1 Television News Construction in Converging Environments: Emerging Paradigms and Methodologies Dean Cummings Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Sheffield Department of Journalism Copyright Dean Cummings 2012 2 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the difference made to local television news production by the introduction of convergence and changes in production methodology. By considering the change in the technique of production from the traditional method, in which individuals were trained in a specific craft, to the present climate, where individuals are required to carry out a number of tasks, it contributes to the discussion of the impact of advancements in technology and various forms of convergence upon journalism. The research is based on an ethnographic study I completed between 2006-2010 in the United States at two separate local television news stations. During the ethnographic study I conducted interviews with external and internal participants in the news production process. I also observed how the news organizations were utilizing similar production techniques. From the archives of WKYC-TV, one of the news organizations in the ethnographic study, a textual analysis was conducted from a sampling of news stories from the 1970s to the present day. As a framework for analysis, grounded theory method was used to analyse the qualitative date from the case studies and ethnographic findings. This method was chosen to minimize implicit or explicit assumptions made prior to and during the ethnographic study. I was aware of explicit assumptions, based on current research, that technology is changing the final product presented to the audience (Farhi, 2002: 5) (Kolodzy, 2006: 15), (Hemmingway 2005: 8-26), and, in terms of newspapers converging with television news organizations, that they are creating new multi-media products (Dupagne et al., 2006: 247-249), (Patterson et al., 2008: 99-105).

  • Syria and Electronic Warfare
    Rüdiger Lohlker Syria and electronic warfare “Consumerization of warfare”, a concept coined by Andrea Zapparoli Manzoni, has been identified by the website Hackmageddon.com as one of the crucial aspects of new warfare.1 Paolo Passeri writes: “If the Cyberspace is the fifth domain of war, social media are likely destined to become the major sub-domain.”2 Consumerization of warfare has been defined by Zapparoli Manzoni and Passeri as the growing use of new technology such as social media and mobile3 in a new war format, especially for propaganda.4 The authors state: “The issue is considerably more complicated than a simple tweet or a Facebook status update (a method that, although unconfirmed, is said to have been used by the Syrian Government to distribute DdoS software to its supporters for attacking adversary sites), and hides the (usual and well known) Social Network security issues, which are projected in a military dimension extending them in a much larger and dangerous scale both for senders and recipients of the tweets. The main security concern relies in reputation, a bless and a curse for Social Networks.”5 The Syrian case mentioned above is a striking example illustrating this new kind of warfare. But the use of computer mediated communication is not a new phenomenon for the Middle East. In October 2000 Israeli hackers successfully hacked several websites of the Lebanese Hizbullah and started what has been called by the media a “Cyber Intifada” since Lebanese and Palestinian hackers started to retaliate by attacking and esp. defacing Israeli websites. This campaigns were the first instance of governmental and non governmental propaganda warfare in the region.6 The Iranian activities against the protesters of the “Green Movement” after the presidential elections of 2009 are well known.

It is especially about the role of news journalism, NGOs and other activists who use communication for change. It looks at the context for those actors and their actions. It asks how much the Internet and social networks are changing advocacy. It takes an ethical and political rather than technological or theoretical approach. It ask whether the ‘public sphere’ needs to be redefined. If that is the case, I argue, then we need to think again about journalism, advocacy communications and the relationship between mediation and social, political or economic change. I would identify three overlapping, interrelated media dynamics that might add up to the need for a new notion of the public sphere: the disruption of communication power; the rise of networked journalism; the dual forces for online socialisation and corporatisation. This is not only a theoretical concern. From these dynamics flow all the other arguments about what kind of media we want or need, and what effect it will have on our ability to communicate particular kinds of issues or information.

INFOCORE Definitions: “News Production”. Ludwig Maximilian University - Munich, Germany. Online available at http://www.infocore.eu/results/definitions/ http://www.infocore.eu/results/definitions/ News Production NEWS In framing the news as an activity, the International Encyclopaedia of Communication describes news as ‘the product of teamwork in media outlets (Nossek, 2008),’ but the definition of ‘news production’ goes beyond such definition through looking at certain criteria that include tasks, structures, processes, routines, and influences on the news. News, according to Harrison (2006, p. 13), is ‘is judged to be newsworthy by journalists, who exercise their news sense within the constraints of the news organizations within which they operate.’ Defining news production as a process is uneasy difficult task, as there is no generic definition of news, but it all depends on the context and the need for such news. News production as begins as a process of editing ‘as soon as a journalist sees and hears of something newsworthy’ (Wilson, 1996, p. 29) and is produced by ‘journalism professionals (of which there are different types with different journalistic subcultures, for example, reporters, producers, technical staff and managerial staff) working in a routine day to-day manner within a news organization’ (Harrison, 2006, p. 99). NEWS PRODUCTION News production can be seen as the process of transforming events through systematic criteria into news that is publishable in the media. News production tasks are activities ‘where news workers/journalists engaged in the production of the written, visual, or audio texts designated as news and information appearing in print media and on broadcast and cable television, radio, and the Internet’ (Ettema, 2008).

Market Matters: How Market-Driven is 'The ewN sroom'? Abstract This study examines whether the award-winning news show The Newsroom depicted on HBO practices what John McManus defined as market-driven journalism. McManus posited that organizations practicing market- driven journalism compete in the four markets he describes in his market theory for news production. This study found that The Newsroom depicts an organization that does indeed practice market-driven journalism, with results interpreted through the lens of market theory for news production.

    Washington Post: Rethinking the Modern Newsroom WASHINGTON, DC | CATEGORY: INTERIOR ARCHITECTURE An open, energized, and wired space helps a venerated newspaper reinvent itself as a media and technology company. The Washington Post’s new home is a 92 percent open plan, thereby allowing reporters, engineers, social media specialists, and videographers to intermingle in a truly converged newsroom. In this converged environment, the news hub serves as the center of information. This centrally located, double-height space features a ribbon of monitors displaying the Post’s real-time website analytics as well as news channels, news websites, and social media portals. The setup allows the Post to fine tune its content and distribution instantly. Off the news hub sits the Ben Bradlee Story Conference Center, where the Post’s editors gather twice daily to discuss news content. Increasingly, such content includes video. Hence the newsroom’s offering of a traditional broadcast-video studio and three live shot settings that capture the newsroom’s full length and branding elements, including the Post’s iconic nameplate. “At the heart of this project was the idea of helping a legendary newspaper company evolve into a media and technology enterprise.
