Internet jako prostor pro sociální inovace? Analýza prostředí digitálních podob současného českého tisku / Internet as a space for social innovations? An analysisof the current Czech online newspaper marketSoukupová, Lenka January 2013 (has links)
Taking into account the theoretical approaches of Joseph Alois Schumpeter and Clayton Christensen to innovation, this case study is mapping the current Czech environment of written online media. Traditional media houses are dealing with the crisis of finances and information as generally described by Christensen, which means they are in real need for innovation yet they are not always successful. Other new incentives also appear on the market. Similarly to the situation abroad, the NGO sector is able to provide quality content on issues of its interest. Social innovation is rather a buzzword in the country, yet the author identifies a couple of efforts in the online written media. The author also suggests there might even be a niche for a social enterprise in the area to cooperate with the NGO sector and blogosphere.

[pt] Esta tese verifica que o jornalismo continua capaz de cumprir um papel de cão de guarda da sociedade a partir da hipótese de que foi fundamental para informar a população e combater a desinformação durante a fase crítica da pandemia de covid-19. Para examinar esta questão, a tese se debruça no exame minucioso do jornal diário O Globo, do Rio de Janeiro, entre 9 de março e 20 de setembro de 2020, em um total de 28 semanas, levando-se em conta a centralidade temporal da semana iniciada em 8 de junho, data da formação do Consórcio de Veículos de Imprensa. Com uso da técnica de semanas compostas, utiliza-se a metodologia de análise de conteúdo para verificar em profundidade o tratamento da pandemia pelo jornal em 28 edições (uma por semana), verificando a cobertura em 1.212 itens de informação (notas, matérias e reportagens) e de opinião (colunas, artigos e editoriais). É feita uma análise qualitativa da cobertura a partir de revisão bibliográfica das teorias da parcialidade jornalística e de estudos acadêmicos sobre credibilidade, além do exame de pesquisas desenvolvidas por instituições acadêmicas e entidades de classe sobre a reestruturação forçada do modo de produção do jornalismo em função da aceleração, pela pandemia, da adoção das modalidades de trabalho remoto e híbrido. Assim, a tese demonstra a permanência do papel social do jornalismo, principalmente em situações de emergência sanitária como uma pandemia que mudou a forma de produzir notícias em todo o mundo. / [en] This thesis verifies that journalism still able to play the role of a society’s watchdog based on the hypothesis that it was very important in order to inform the population and face misinformation during the critical phase of the covid-19 pandemic.

Using the composed weeks technique, the content analysis method is used to verify deeply the treatment of the pandemic by the newspaper in 28 issues (one per week), verifying news coverage in 1.212 information items (notes, news articles and reports) and opinion items (columns, opinion pieces and editorials). The qualitative analysis of the news coverage is based on a bibliographical review of media bias theories and academic studies on credibility as well as the examination of research carried out by academic institutions and professional associations on the restructuring of journalism production caused by pandemic which provoked the adoption of remote and flexible work. Thus, the thesis demonstrates the continuity of the social role of journalism, especially in health emergency situations such as the covid-19 pandemic that changed the journalism process around the World.

An investigation into whether the weekly national newspapers reported unethically on South Africa's 2014 general elections: a critical discourse analysis of the City Press, Sunday Times and The Mail and GuardianNaidoo, Viloshnee 11 1900 (has links)
Text in English / This thesis investigates whether or not the press reported unethically on South Africa’s 2014 General Elections in the weekly national newspapers the City Press, Sunday Times and the Mail & Guardian. This study was undertaken on the basis of the ongoing contention between the press and the state which has resulted in polarised positions between both institutions amid accusations of press bias. It has given voice to measures to regulate the press through a Media Appeals Tribunal (MAT) and proposed state regulation. This could negatively impact free speech, public interest and ultimately democracy. This researcher contends that this will not be in the best interest of South Africa. Through this study, it is argued that an ethical press that executes a libertarian duty to society, integrating a watchdog role over the state, while simultaneously overseeing its social responsibility to society, upholds the welfare of society and democracy and should therefore not be regulated by the state. The elections thus forms an important platform for the press to demonstrate unbiased ethical reportage to the state in the wake of being regulated and prove its fundamental role in society’s interest and democracy.
Therefore, to determine whether the election coverage was ethical or unethical, the problem investigated whether the press, that is, the print medium in the form of the newspaper, reported truthfully, in a balanced manner and independently for South Africa’s 2014 General Elections, upholding its watchdog and social responsibility roles. This was done through a Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) of the front-page news reports of the aforementioned national newspapers for the cross sectional time-frame of 13 April to 11 May, 2014. This study argues that language is the most important channel of communication for the exchange of ideas and can be used as an instrument to calculatedly manipulate message and reinforce a particular viewpoint. Hence, it contends that CDA can effectively be utilised as a conceptual framework for language analysis to determine unethical press coverage by journalists.
The study identifies and applies two significant theoretical models that is, the Libertarian and Social Responsibility models for the elections which further serves as a form of triangulation to verify the results of the CDA. The study challenges the conventions of a distinct libertarian or a social responsibility model for the press, arguing that both models are not mutually exclusive for the elections. The analysis shows that the press apply both social responsibility and libertarian roles simultaneously in election reporting. It further maps out the incorporation of the developmental journalism model where the press upholds the best interests of both the electorate and the state ethically, without the requirement of a state-regulated media. / Communication Science / M.A. (Communication Science)
