The Long History of Data Journalism (1907-2011)
- 2. “ What reporters know and don’t report is still news – not from the newspaper point of view, but from the sociologists and novelists.” (Lincoln Steffens, 1931)
- 10. From the perspective of institutional history, then, the overlapping relationship between journalism, sociology, and reform found in the Pittsburgh Survey was glancing and indirect.
Editor's Notes
- What does this mean? Knowing versus reporting
- My previous research leads to a focus on the info gathering aspects of journalism Professional jurisdiction in reporting So how is reporting changed (but also, how has it changed)? Comparative study of empirical social research over history, with a central focus on journalism
- Primary focus in this talk on the oldest of the three, the “Pittsburgh Survey,” but including some thoughts on other things in order to flesh out full scope of the project.
- Paul U Kellogg Requested by the community itself Research based in volunteer labor “Gather all evidence”
- Outrage and publicity (Muckraking) Normal Sociology (extensive data-gathering) (Policy): data + outrage = improved policy
- How does the Pittsburgh survey relate to what sociology became?
- General consensus: not muc
- Solved the conflict? (so the story goes): each discipline found its different (1) domain of expertise, (2) it’s client base (3) and secured a credentialing position within the new university system during the period of “high professionalization in the 1920’s
- Need to go beyond the institutional history to uncover the history of the empirical techniques that justified the institutions.
- How being used in journalism: (1) distributing news and (2) analyzing, sense-making of news evidence.
- Possible areas of future research along these lines.
