Edited by Fred Vultee, Lee Wilkins
Part of the Journalism Studies series
EPUB
Description
The study of news and news practice is rich in examinations of what journalists owe to society.
However, this book looks at what journalists can expect from society: what roles ownership structures, colleagues, governments and audiences should play so journalists can do their jobs well – and safely. What Journalists Are Owed draws on a variety of research perspectives – legal and ethical analysis, surveys, interviews and content analysis – in different national settings to look at how those relationships among stakeholders are developing in a time of rapid and often unsettling chance to the political and economic environments that surround journalism.
Journalism can be a risky business. This book opens some discussions on those risks can be described and mitigated. There’s no shortage of writing about what journalists owe society – but if society wants journalism done well, what does it owe journalists in return?
This volume opens a discussion on the cultural, legal-system and professional agreements that societies should provide so journalists can do their jobs in increasingly hostile political environments.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Journalism Studies.
