The media as watchdog in the commercialisation of science : a case study of 6 publicationsValentine, Alexander J. (Alexander Joseph) 04 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The role of the media as a watchdog for the social institution of science is viewed as part of the media’s role to protect society. In this regard, the role of media was studied in reporting the phenomenon of the commercialisation of academic research at universities. The current study was conducted by analysing articles in 2 scientific journals (Science and Nature) and 4 printed newspapers (The New York Times, London Times, Mail & Gaurdian, Business Day) for the year 2003. The methods of investigation for each publication included the number of articles covering the topic, the percentage coverage, headline analysis, summary of contents and analysis of the themes. The New York Times had more articles on the topic of the “commercialisation of science at universities” than the other publications. However, based on the number of issues per year, Science and Nature had a greater coverage of the topic than The New York Times. Based on the analyses of the articles, it is concluded that The New York Times had the most balanced and informed coverage of all the issues and stakeholders involved in the commercialisation of science at universities. This is attributed to the The New York Times’s position of standing outside the realm of science and its experience in covering broad issues. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die rol van die media as ‘n waghond vir die sosiale instelling van die wetenskap, word gesien as deel van die media se rol as die beskermer van die samelewing. In hierdie opsig is die media se rol in die verslaglewering van die kommersialisering van die wetenskap by universiteite ondersoek. Hierdie studie is uitgevoer deur artikels in 2 wetenskaplike vaktydskrifte (Science en Nature) en 4 koerante (The New York Times, London Times, Mail & Guardian, Business Day) vir die jaar 2003, te analiseer. Die metodes wat gebruik is om elke artikel te ontleed, het die aantal artikels, die persentasie van artikels in elke publikasie, hoofopskrif analise, opsomming van inhoud en ‘n analise van die artikel se tema, ingesluit. The New York Times het meer artikels omtrent die onderwerp, die “kommersialisering van die wetenskap by universiteite”, as die ander publikasies gehad. Gebaseer op die aantal uitgawes per jaar, het Science en Nature meer aandag geskenk aan die onderwerp as The New York Times. Volgens die analises van die artikels, word afgeleui dat The New York Times die mees gebalanseerde en ingeligte dekking gehad het oor die betrokke sake en partye in die “kommersialisering van die wetenskap by universiteite”. Dit word toegeskryf aan die The New York Times se posisie as buitestaander in die wetenskap en die koerant se ondervinding om ‘n wye veld te dek.

Wild west science reporting : pitfalls and ethical issues in the reporting of frontier sciencesLow, Marcus 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil) -- Stellenbosch University, 2003. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: When reporting on new research or claims by scientists, the science journalist faces a
number of pitfalls. For a number of reasons the journalist might produce a story which is
inaccurate or misleading. Thus, when a scientist claims to have found a cure for cancer,
the journalist needs to check himself before delivering the story.
In this paper I will examme a number of issues concerning the reporting of frontier
science, or new research. In this realm it is particularly difficult to distinguish more
reliable science from less reliable science. The problem is compounded by the vested
interests of scientists, pharmaceutical companies and other interest groups. What the
science journalist writes, influences public opinion, conceptions about science, and often
affects people's decision-making regarding medical issues. There is thus a clear ethical
aspect to science reporting.
I will try to show that an understanding of how science works is crucial to reporting
science responsibly. In this regard the distinction between frontier and textbook science is
of particular importance. Theoretical distinctions such as these provide useful tools for
the interpretation of claims from the frontier.
The first chapter, then, will deal with theoretical concepts pertaining to how SCIence
works. In the second we will examine a number of examples of how reporting from the
frontiers can go wrong. We will argue that a better understanding of science might have
prevented many of the inaccuracies and misleading claims examined.
In chapter three we will attempt to list what can go wrong, and examine some of the
possible consequences, thus outlining the ethical aspect of science reporting. Finally we
will make a few suggestions and outline some guidelines which might contribute to more
accurate and responsible reporting from the frontiers. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Wanneer daar oor nuwe navorsing of aansprake deur wetenskaplikes berig moet word,
word die wetenskapsverslaggewer gekonfronteer deur 'n aantal moontlike slaggate. Om
verskeie redes kan daar onakkuraat of misleidend verslag gedoen word. Wanneer 'n
wetenskaplike dus berig dat daar 'n kuur vir kanker gevind is, moet die joernalis homself
eers aan sekere beginsels herinner.
In hierdie skrywe sal ek 'n aantal kwessies te doen met die beriggewing van
pionierswetenskap, of nuwe wetenskap, ondersoek. Op hierdie terrein is dit veral moeilik
om tussen betroubare en minder betroubare wetenskap te onderskei. Die probleem word
vererger deur die belange van wetenskaplikes, farmaseutiese maatskappye en ander
belangegroepe. Dit wat deur die wetenskapsjoernalis berig word, beïnvloed publieke
opinie en beskouings oor die wetenskap, en raak dikwels mense se besluitneming rakende
mediese kwessies. Daar is dus 'n duidelike etiese aspek aan wetenskapsverslaggewing
verbonde.
Ek gaan poog om te wys dat 'n begrippnj van hoe wetenskap werk, onmisbaar is vir
verantwoordelike wetenskapsverslaggewing. In hierdie verband is die onderskeid tussen
pioniers- en handboekwetenskap van besondere belang. Teoretiese onderskeide soos dié
verskaf bruikbare gereedskap VIr die interpretasie van aansprake uit die
pionierswetenskap.
In die eerste hoofstuk sal 'n aantal teoretiese konsepte oor die werking van wetenskap
verduidelik word. In die tweede hoofstuk sal 'n aantal voorbeelde van waar
verslaggewing van [N4]pionierswetenskap verkeerd geloop het, bespreek word. Ek gaan
argumenteer dat In beter begrippisj van wetenskap moontlik baie van dié onakkuraathede
en misleidende aansprake sou kon voorkom het.
Hoofstuk drie sal dan poog om te lys wat verkeerd kan gaan, en sal sommige van die
moontlike gevolge ondersoek. Hierdeur sal die etiese aspek van
wetenskapsverslaggewing dus uitgestippel word. Aan die einde sal ek 'n paar voorstelle maak, en probeer om riglyne uit te stip wat kan bydra tot meer akkurate en
verantwoordelike verslaggewing van pionierswetenskap.

Verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing : op soek na etiese riglyneVan Niekerk, Petrus, Van Niekerk, Piet 04 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--University of Stellenbosch, 2004. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Crime reporting creates a set of unique challenges within journalism in general.
Generally inexperienced journalists are assigned to the crime beat in South African
newsrooms. A lack of knowledge and absence of codes of ethical conduct create a reality
wherein crime reporting more than often causes more harm than good.
Within the existing media ethical debate, ethical reflections about responsible crime
reporting will go a long way to stimulate thought on responsible crime reporting and help
to formulate guidelines for ethical crime reporting in the future.
In this project the debate on responsible crime reporting starts by illuminating where
crime-reporting slots into the traditional philosophical ethical debate before a distinction
is made between law and ethics. The way laws influence ethical crime reporting - if at all
- is analysed.
The crime reporter's relationship towards his employer, his community, the state and
victims of crime creates a complex maze of responsibilities. After analysing these
complex relationships, existing codes of conduct and the unique challenges within the
South African context are evaluated.
A set of case studies creates the opportunity to list factors needed to be taken into
account, before proposing guidelines that will create a positive atmosphere for pro / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Midsdaadverslaggewing stel unieke uitdagings aan verslaggewers. Onervare joernaliste
word in Suid-Afrikaanse nuuskantore met die misdaad-rondte opgesaal. Uit onkunde en
weens 'n algemene gebrek aan etiese riglyne word misdaadverslaggewing dikwels op só
'n manier bedryf dat dit eerder skade as goed berokken.
Binne die breër media-etiese debat kan 'n etiese besinning oor misdaadverslaggewing 'n
bydrae lewer tot nadenke oor verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing, sowel as tot die
ontwikkeling van riglyne wat verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing vir die toekoms
kan kweek.
Die debat oor verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing begin in dié werkstuk deur
misdaadverslaggewing te beskou binne die tradisionele filosofiese debat oor etiek.
Daarna word gekyk na die verband tussen wette en etiek en watter- indien enigeinvloed
wette op verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing het.
Die misdaadverslaggewer se verhouding tot sy werkgewer, sy gemeenskap, die staat en
slagoffers van misdaad plaas hom in 'n komplekse posisie wat betref sy
verantwoordelikhede. Nadat hierdie verantwoordelikheidsvelde uitgespel is, word gekyk
na bestaande riglyne en die unieke komplikasies in Suid-Afrika op soek na riglyne vir
verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing. Nadat enkele gevallestudies ontleed is, word voorstelle gedoen oor die faktore wat in ag
geneem behoort te word ten opsigte van verantwoordelike misdaadverslaggewing. Dit
bring die werkstuk tot uiteindelike voorstelle oor hoe 'n gunstige milieu in Suid-
Afrikaanse nuuskantore geskep kan word vir die kweek van verantwoordelike
misdaadverslaggewing.

El caso de Rosario Ponce contra el mundo: discursos de espectacularización y representaciones de género en la prensa sensacionalista peruana / The case of Rosario Ponce against the world: the spectacularization of discourse and gender representations in Peruvian tabloidsMorey Obispo, Alessandra Daniela 13 July 2020 (has links)
El poder de los medios para crear discursos acerca de un hecho noticioso es bastante conocido. El tratamiento que un medio periodístico le de a una noticia es la forma en la que los ciudadanos reciben y perciben esta información. Muchas veces, la prensa, cae en prácticas que se alejan de la ética periodística como es la transformación de un hecho a un espectáculo. Asimismo, replican en estos discursos representaciones y estereotipos que se originan en la sociedad y que son llevados a los medios de comunicación.
En la siguiente investigación abordaremos estas cuestiones analizando lo ocurrido en el caso de Ciro Castillo y Rosario Ponce acerca de procesos de espectacularización de la noticia y roles de género. Para ello, se ha realizado un estudio cualitatitvo en el que se analizarán desde la perspectiva del discurso periodístico las notas web publicadas en el portal de Diario Ojo acerca del caso.
Los principales hallazgos recaen en la forma en la que se construyó la imagen de Rosario en la prensa basado en cuestiones morales y de género, y en la subordinación del rol femenino a la figura masculina. También, reflexionaremos acerca de las implicancias tanto sociales como periodísticas que llevan consigo la espectacularización de un hecho y cómo se va desestimando el valor del rigor en el ejercicio periodístico. / The power of the media to create discourses about a news event is well known. The treatment that a press media gives to a news is the way in which citizens receive and perceive this information. Many times, the press falls into practices that are far from journalistic ethics, such as the transformation of a fact into a show. Also, representations and stereotypes that originate in society, are carried to the media and they are also replicated in these discourses.
In the following investigation, we will address these problems by analyzing what happened in the case of Ciro Castillo and Rosario Ponce about the process of news spectacularization and gender roles. For this, a qualitative study was carried out in which the web notes published on the Diario Ojo portal on the case will be analyzed from the perspective of the journalistic discourse.
The main findings of this work are the way Rosario's image was built in the press based on moral and gender issues, and also in the subordination of the female role to the male figure. In addition, we will reflect on the social and journalistic implications that the spectacularization of information entails and how the value of rigor in journalistic practice is discarded. / Trabajo de investigación

Conflicts of interest in the reporting of biomedical research in mainstream newspapers in CanadaBuist, Steven Douglas 17 October 2013 (has links)
Dissertation in compliance with the requirements for the Master's Degree in Technology: Journalism, Durban University of Technology, 2013. / Ethical behaviour by investigators is the cornerstone of scientific research.
Recognizing, declaring and avoiding a conflict of interest are key
responsibilities for biomedical researchers, particularly since commercial
enterprises, such as pharmaceutical companies, have become major funding
sources of research.
Proactive disclosure of researchers' financial
relationships is now a requirement for publication in most scientific journals.
The question that arises is whether this same increased scrutiny of financial
disclosure and potential for conflict of interest has extended to the
mainstream press in Canada.
A content analysis of biomedical research articles that appeared in Canadian
daily newspapers from 2001 to 2008 showed that 82 per cent of the articles
failed to identify the financial connection that existed between the
researcher(s) and the commercial funder, and nearly half of the articles did
not even identify the commercial funding source of the research. A text
analysis showed that 94 per cent of the articles were positive about the
drug/device cited by the research, and positive, optimistic words such as
“breakthrough”, “significant”, “hope” and “promising” were often used in the
news articles. Reporters frequently frame biomedical research articles using
a battle-like template that describes a fight between good and evil. Another
common approach was to frame the article as a message of hope for the
future. A genre analysis showed that the genre of medical research news
articles published in newspapers is highly dissimilar to the genre of medical
research articles published in scientific journals. It is likely these two genres
have been constructed to appeal to very different target audiences.
The study results show overwhelmingly that readers are not provided with
key information about potential financial conflicts of interest involving the
researchers and the commercial sources of funding for the research. Such
lack of transparency thwarts the reader’s ability to reach informed
conclusions about whether or not the research has been either explicitly or
implicitly influenced by the researcher’s potential conflict.
