Adolescents want media that report in an understandable way and show backgrounds and possible solutions. This book shows how the concept of constructive journalism helps with this and how it can be used in journalism training. This springer essential is a translation of the original German 1st edition essentials, Journalistische Konstruktiver Journalismus by Gabriele Hooffacker, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

At the turn of the millennium, Indian journalism has undergone significant changes. The rapid commercialization of the press, together with an increase in literacy and political consciousness, has led to swift growth in the newspaper market but also changed the way news makers mediate politics. Positioned at a historical junction where India is clearly feeling the effects of market liberalization, this study demonstrates how journalists and informants interactively create new forms of political action and consciousness. The book explores English and Hindi newsmaking and investigates the creation of news relations during the production process and how they affect political images and leadership traditions. It moves beyond the news-room to outline the role of journalists in urban society, the social lives of news texts and the way citizens bring their ideas and desires to bear on the news discourse.

Narrative Means to Journalistic Ends A Narratological Analysis of Selected Journalistic Reportages


Free Download Narrative Means to Journalistic Ends: A Narratological Analysis of Selected Journalistic Reportages By Nora Berning (auth.)
2011 | 158 Pages | ISBN: 3531179101 | PDF | 2 MB
Nora Berning grasps the narrative potential of journalistic reportages via a set of narratological categories. Spurred by an interdisciplinary framework, she builds on transgeneric narratological research and shows that journalistic reportages can be described, analyzed, and charted with categories that originate in structuralist narratology. The author spells out minimal criteria for particular types of reportages, and challenges the argument that journalism and literature have distinct, non-overlapping communicative goals. By showing that the reportage is a hybrid text type that seeks to inform, educate, and entertain, this study advances a re-conceptualization of journalism and literature as two fields with permeable borders. The book is written for researchers and students in the fields of journalism, media, communications, and literary theory.
