2. What is Journalism?
It is the activity, or product, of journalists or
others engaged in the preparation of written,
visual, or audio material intended for
dissemination through public media with
reference to factual, ongoing events of public
concern. It is intended to inform society
about itself and to make events public that
would otherwise remain private.
3. ⚫The word journal comes from the Latin
word diurnal which means “daily.” In
ancient Rome, short bulletins of battles,
elections compiled by
fires and
government officials were posted up in
public places. These were called acta
diurna which meant “ daily events” (Noah
Webster).
⚫Webster defines journalism as “the
activity or job of collecting, writing and
editing news stories for broadcast
journalism.
4. ⚫Fraser F
. Bond, on the other hand, defines
it as “something that embraces all forms
in which or through which the news and
comments on the news reach the public.”
According to him, all that happens in the
world, if such happenings hold interest
the thoughts,
for the
actions,
public, and all
and ideas which these
basic
happenings stimulate, become
materials for the journalist.
5. Formal Introduction of Journalism
⚫Although the first school paper in the City
schools of Manila was published in School
Year 1911-1912, formal classroom
instruction in high school journalism
began in 1952.
⚫Mrs. Sarah England, an American teacher
of Mapa High School, experimented the
teaching of journalism.
6. ⚫Since, it proved successful, the other four
existing high schools in the city followed
suit ( Araullo, Torres, Arellano, and Abad
Santos).
⚫They formally offered journalism as a
vocational subject holding classes on a
daily period throughout the school year.
⚫Since then, journalism has been under the
supervision of English supervisors, but the
grades are considered vocational subjects.
8. Forms of Journalism
1. Advocacy journalism is a genre of
journalism that intentionally and
transparently adopts a non-objective
viewpoint, usually for some social or
political purpose. Because it is
intended to be factual, it is
distinguished from propaganda. It is
also distinct from instances of
media bias and failures of objectivity
in media outlets, which attempt to
be—or which present themselves
as—objective or neutral.
9. 2. Broadcast journalism is the field of
news and journals which
"broadcast", that is, published
are
by
electrical methods, instead of the
older methods, such as printed
newspapers and posters.
Broadcast methods include radio
(via air, cable, and Internet),
television (via air
, cable, and
Internet), and, especially
recently, the Internet generally. Such
media disperse pictures
text
(static
and/or
and moving), visual
sounds.
10. ⚫ 3. Drone journalism is the use of drones, or
unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), for
journalistic purposes. According to the FAA,
“an unmanned aircraft is a device that is
used, or is intended to be used, for flight in
the air with no onboard pilot.”
⚫ The use of drones for information collection
in the journalism industry is still new. Two
university journalism programs are testing
drones in this context, namely the Drone
Journalism Lab, founded in late November
2011 by Matt Waite, professor of journalism
and mass communication at the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln, and the Drone Journalism
Program at the University of Missouri.
11. 3.Gonzo journalism is a style of
journalism that is written without claims
of objectivity, often including the
reporter as part of the story via a first-
person narrative. The word "gonzo" is
believed to be first used in 1970 to
describe an article by Hunter S.
Thompson, who later popularized the
style. The term has since been applied to
other subjective artistic endeavors.
12. 4. Investigative journalism is a form of
journalism in which reporters deeply
investigate a single topic of interest, often
involving crime, political corruption, or
corporate wrongdoing. An investigative
journalist may spend months or years
researching and preparing a report.
Investigative journalism is a primary
source of information. Most investigative
journalism is conducted by newspapers,
wire services, and freelance journalists.
Practitioners sometimes use the terms
"watchdog journalism" or "accountability
reporting."
13. 5. Photojournalism is a particular form
of journalism (the collecting, editing,
and presenting of news material for
publication or broadcast) that creates
images in order to tell a news story. It
is now usually understood to refer
only to still images, but in some cases
the term also refers to video used in
broadcast journalism.
14. 6. Tabloid journalism tends to emphasize
topics such as sensational crime stories,
astrology, gossip columns about the personal
lives of celebrities and sports stars, and junk
food news. Such journalism is commonly
associated with tabloid sized newspapers like
the National Enquirer, Globe or the The Sun
and the former News of the World. Not all
newspapers associated with such journalism
are in tabloid size, for example, the format of
Apple Daily is broadsheet while the style is
tabloid. The terms "tabloids", "supermarket
tabloids", "gutter press", and "rag", refer to
the journalistic approach of such newspapers
rather than their size.
15. journalism, or the yellow
journalism that
7. Yellow
press, is
presents
a type of
little or no legitimate well-
researched news and instead uses eye-
catching headlines to sell
newspapers. Techniques
more
may include
of news events, scandal-
exaggerations
mongering, or sensationalism. By
extension, the term yellow journalism is
used today as a pejorative to decry any
journalism that treats news in an
unprofessional or unethical fashion.
