UiO sin egen emnebeskrivelse — læringsutbytte, innhold og vurderingsform.
What is journalism in an age when anyone, in principle can be a reporter? What is the role of journalists in contemporary society? This course aims to challenge the cliches and commonplace assumptions we often hear about journalism in a democracy, particularly the notion that journalists are "independent" and "objective." We will, in fact, explore the way in which news is constructed and how both journalists and media organizations, inescapably, operate under a range of social and political influences. We will question the notions of "truth" and what it means, in practice, to be "ethical." Among other topics, we will also explore journalism outside the Western world. In doing so we will compare the definitions and assumptions about journalism we can find in textbooks and in research within Journalism Studies to the actual practice of journalists working in the field, struggling with deadlines, shrinking budgets, precarious contracts and many other constraints.
Please note: This is not a course teaching you how to work as a journalist. However, it includes empirical case studies and research on the practice of journalism, particularly the way journalists’ routines and decisions are taken in concrete situations.
