Global journalism encompasses 3 different perspectives on the practice of journalism: (1) the globalized approach to reporting elaborated by scholar Peter Berglez; (2) studies of how journalists differ in different countries; and (3) the practice of "foreign correspondence" or international reporting. This presentation by professor Mindy McAdams explains the distinctions among the 3 approaches. This presentation was given to journalists, students and others in Pontianak, West Kalimantan, and Jakarta, West Java, in July 2012, and includes some examples specific to Indonesia. SEE ALSO http://www.slideshare.net/macloo/global-journalism-research (for a discussion of approaches to conducting research about global journalism).
This presentation by Mindy McAdams serves as an introduction to major themes and approaches to research about journalism work and journalism products in the 21st century. It centers on five chapters in the 2008 book "Global Journalism Research" (Loffelholz & Weaver, Eds.) and adds five examples of published journal articles to demonstrate the range of research topics in journalism studies today. It also touches briefly on the work of Peter Berglez (about "global journalism" as a news style). For more about Berglez and the practices of international news reporting, SEE ALSO http://www.slideshare.net/macloo/global-journalism/ (this presents a comparison of 3 differing concepts of "global journalism").
media economics are the economic policies and practices of media companies and disciplines including journalism and the news industry, film production, entertainment programs, print, broadcast, mobile communications, Internet, advertising and public relations.

More Than Both Sides — Redefining Objectivity 23c.pdfLogan Aimone
Objectivity has been the gold standard in journalism. But whose objectivity? As journalists debate their role — especially when it comes to race — the traditional definition of “objective” must evolve beyond detached stenography and performative balance. Learn how increasing standards of fairness and transparency can improve credibility and trust.

A Critical Analysis of Social Issues Discussed In Important English Newspaper...iosrjce
The purpose of the study was to analyze the newspaper articles published in the Daily Dawn and the
Daily News International during the year 2012-2011. The researcher analyzed the articles from different
aspects e.g. knowledge of social issues, enriching English language etc. so as to enhance the level of awareness
regarding social issues and learning skills of English language of the readers. One hypotheses was formulated.
The scope of the study was limited to the articles published in the important English newspapers of Pakistan
(the Daily Dawn and the Daily News) and their readers in Karachi. Mixed research approach was adopted. The
population was comprised of all the readers of the selected articles of the Daily Dawn and the Daily News
newspapers published during the year 2012-2011 in Karachi. The researcher used the stratified random
sampling design along with purposive sampling design was adopted. The mode of determining the role of
English newspapers was through a close and careful analysis of the newspaper articles. Questionnaires and
interview protocol were major techniques used for data collection. Data was analyzed qualitatively and
quantitatively. Content analysis of the articles revealed the level of social issues discussed in important
newspapers. It has created an impact specifically on the authorities of the newspaper organizations and
generally in the public. It was a sort of litmus test. It was found knowledge related to social issues was available
for the readers. On the basis of findings concrete recommendations were made.

Discourse and Dissent in the Coverage of Hyderabad Blasts by the Leading Indi...ijtsrd
Print media is a mass media that serves as a vigilant watchdog in a society. It analyses the latest policies of the government and builds up public opinion, and works as a bridge between people and the government. Media has the power to generate a specific reaction from the public by the way a news story is portrayed. Newspapers have a significant impact on public perception of violent crime, far more than any other news source Paulsen, 2002 . During a conflict, the media plays a crucial role in shaping perception. The ways media constructs discourse vis a vis terrorist attacks needs to be recognized. “The credibility of media messages, their sources, and the messengers communicating those messages, as well as the context within which the messages are delivered, all mediate the influence of news on consumers†Baum and Groeling, 2009 . Since the terrorist attacks, in addition to involving perpetrators and victims, also involves the audience. It can be said that the way news about the attacks is covered has an influence on how the masses perceive the incident. Such attacks have become a common occurrence, however, the focus of the current study is to analyze the discourse that has been generated by the media in the coverage of the Hyderabad blasts. The study also analyses the dissent in Indian print media by analyzing the reportage of the Hyderabad blasts by the four leading Indian English newspapers.

Words ‘Journal’ , ‘Journalism’, Journalist’ have their origin in the French word ‘journal’ meaning a book and it has it’s origin in turn in the Roman word ‘ diurnalis’ meaning daily.
Introduces the idea of "Just Enough Code" -- to add a 2- or 3-week module on Web coding into courses like editing, or design, or multimedia. There are 2 reasons to do this. One is to demystify how Web and mobile sites are made. The other is to open a door -- for (at least) some students -- to something they might really have an aptitude for, something they might really enjoy, if you just have a chance to explore it.
Multimedia Journalism Innovations in the ClassroomMindy McAdams
For a panel about "Innovation in Journalism Education": How teaching multimedia journalism has changed since 1999, and how I have adapted my classes and pushed my department to innovate. Journalism students don't have to be programmers, but they should have an opportunity to learn how to create new story forms for web and mobile platforms.

Starter presentation in a weeklong workshop for journalism educators at Rhodes University, South Africa, in June 2014. We are trying to discover the needs of the journalism school as it goes forward with changes and updates in the curriculum. Purpose of this pres is to identify some areas where teaching needs to be focused, or refocused.
Blogs cover a very wide variety of styles and approaches. Blogs written by journalists, or housed on the websites of media organizations, are also widely varied. To understand blogs, blogging, and the audiences for blogs, we have to begin by looking at real blogs and comparing them. This presentation was given to 3rd-year journalism students at Rhodes University, South Africa.

role of women and girls in various terror groupssadiakorobi2
Women have three distinct types of involvement: direct involvement in terrorist acts; enabling of others to commit such acts; and facilitating the disengagement of others from violent or extremist groups.
हम आग्रह करते हैं कि जो भी सत्ता में आए, वह संविधान का पालन करे, उसकी रक्षा करे और उसे बनाए रखे।" प्रस्ताव में कुल तीन प्रमुख हस्तक्षेप और उनके तंत्र भी प्रस्तुत किए गए। पहला हस्तक्षेप स्वतंत्र मीडिया को प्रोत्साहित करके, वास्तविकता पर आधारित काउंटर नैरेटिव का निर्माण करके और सत्तारूढ़ सरकार द्वारा नियोजित मनोवैज्ञानिक हेरफेर की रणनीति का मुकाबला करके लोगों द्वारा निर्धारित कथा को बनाए रखना और उस पर कार्यकरना था।
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

2. An idea of ―global‖
journalism
World: More connected
People: More mobile
National economy: Tied to global
markets
News moves faster
Internet: No national borders
3. Global issues in the news
Climate change & global warming
Economy and trade
Disease outbreaks, such as bird flu
(avian influenza)
Nuclear disasters, such as Fukushima,
Japan (2011)
Terrorism
Human trafficking
4. A question
In the past, newspapers used to have a
separate section called ―foreign news.‖
Today, is any news really ―foreign‖?
5.
6.
7.
8. Global issues in the news
Entertainment: Fans of Lady Gaga are
interested in her, regardless of which
country she visits
Politics: Educated people want to know
what happens in foreign elections,
especially when the country is large and
important (like Egypt)
Crime and oddity: But what about
Etan Patz? (Global importance?)
9. Aspects of global
journalism
A style of reporting and analyzing news
events
People: Journalists around the world
Reporting from other countries: Same
story, different viewpoints / The foreign
correspondent
11. A new style of news?
Peter Berglez says
global journalism
is ―an emerging
news style.‖
Berglez is a Swedish
researcher in
communications, and an
associate professor at Örebro
University, Sweden.
Peter Berglez
12. Journalism should:
View the world
as one place
Put events into
their proper
contexts, using
analysis and in-
depth coverage
See the whole
picture
Peter Berglez
13. Until now, researchers have only
compared news coverage
and journalism practices
by comparing different countries ...
14. Research about global
journalism
The culture of journalism and mass
media in different countries
Journalism ethics: Similarities and
differences, theory and practice
Avoiding cultural stereotypes and
Euro-centrism in news reports
How news is reported from military
conflicts in different parts of the world
15. ... but Peter Berglez
has offered a new perspective.
16. Global journalism is:
More than just
international news
reporting
Related to
globalization,
which involves
―ongoing relations
between regions
and peoples‖
Peter Berglez
17. Global journalism is:
An ongoing
journalistic practice
with an everyday
routine of
investigating how
people and their
actions, etc., in
different parts of the
world are interrelated
(Berglez, 2007, p. 151)
Peter Berglez
18. Berglez gives us a definition of global
journalism as a new kind of news
reporting, which is very well suited for the
increasing interconnectedness of
our world today.
19. Berglez gives us a definition of global
journalism as a new kind of news
reporting, which is very well suited for the
increasing interconnectedness of
our world today.
Journalism (at its best) can help us
understand the world,
and our own place in the world.
21. An example from Indonesia
Forest Loss in Sumatra
―Here on the island of Sumatra, about 1,200
miles from the global climate talks under way
on Bali, are some of the world’s fastest-
disappearing forests … Responding to
global demand for palm oil, which is used in
cooking and cosmetics and, lately, in an
increasingly popular biodiesel, companies
have been claiming any land they can.‖
—nytimes.com, 6 Dec. 2007
Quoted by Berglez (2008, pp. 848–849)
23. By showing the connections between
people and events …
by showing how the actions in one place
produce a result in another place …
global journalism
makes people smarter and
prepares them for making good decisions.
25. Journalism’s people
Studies and surveys about reporters in
many different countries
Compare their work, the tasks they do
Attitudes toward their work
Ethics
Their pay and working conditions
Their education
Their age, and other demographic data
26. ―The Global Journalist‖
Survey: More than
30,000 journalists
in 33 countries
Many similarities
among journalists,
regardless of their
home country
Differences in
ethical practices
and values
David Weaver
27. Two of Weaver’s 11 books
The Global Journalist
in the 21st Century:
News People Around
the World (published
2012) *
The American
Journalist in the 21st
Century: U.S. News
People at the Dawn of
a New Millennium
(published 2006)
David Weaver
* Weaver published a similar study in 1998
28. Some differences in ethics
Is it acceptable to use personal documents
without permission?
U.S. journalists: 40 percent say yes
All journalists: Average of 23 percent say yes
Is it acceptable to pay for secret info?
U.S. journalists: Only 32 percent say yes
Indonesian journalists: 60 percent say yes
Is it acceptable to claim to be someone else to
get information?
All journalists: Average of 32 percent say yes
Is it acceptable to harass sources?
All journalists: Average of 37 percent say yes
29. Why are they different?
The country’s politics and government
Cultural and historical differences in the
journalism profession
Prediction about journalists is difficult:
For example, Sweden and Demark are
very similar countries, but the journalists
surveyed in each had very different
responses to Weaver’s survey
30. Survey findings
Average age of a journalist: 39
U.S. journalists average slightly older
There are more women in journalism
now than in the past
But women do not stay in the profession as
long as men, especially in the U.S.
An average of 82 percent of journalists
worldwide hold university degrees
But only about 45 percent were journalism
majors
31. Some points of agreement
Reporting quickly
Reporting objectively
Providing entertainment (the news
should be interesting)
Not revealing confidential sources
Most journalists agree that these are
good goals, good behaviors.
32. While the basic job description of a
journalist is similar everywhere,
the traditions, values, and morals
of journalists around the world
are very different.
(How does it affect the content of their
news reporting?)
33. Many of the differences
are related to education and training.
Well-trained journalists see journalism as:
A mission
A service to society
A way to improve the nation
34. Summary: The global journalist
In Weaver’s research, the ―global
journalist‖ means all journalists, all
around the world
Weaver studies what is different (and
what is the same) about journalists and
how they work
His research gives us a question: What
are the conditions that make the
journalists behave and work differently?
36. The Global Journalist: News
and Conscience in a World of
Conflict
This 2002* book has
a very different focus
from Weaver’s book:
International news
reporting.
These reporters used
to be called ―foreign
correspondents.‖
Philip Seib
* This book is somewhat outdated now
37. A better book (newer: 2009)
This book has a
similar focus to
Seib’s book ...
But here, each
chapter is written
by a different
international news
reporter.
International News Reporting: Frontlines and Deadlines
38. Two facts
Everybody has a point of view
Journalism is supposed to be
―objective‖
39. A recent example
I will show 4 screens of text taken
from a press release (May 23, 2012)
Then I will show two newspaper
articles (from two different
newspapers) on May 24, 2012
Both newspapers wrote about the
same news that is in the press
release
40. Press Release
From the Asian Human Rights Commission
May 23, 2012
Today, the Indonesia's human rights record
was reviewed by the UN Human Rights
Council in the 13th session of the
Universal Periodic Review in Geneva,
Switzerland. Key issues, such as the
protection of freedom of religion or
the human rights situation in Papua, were
raised by many UN Member States
participating in the review.
http://www.humanrights.asia/
41. Press Release
From the Asian Human Rights Commission
May 23, 2012
―The responses by the government of
Indonesia to the issues and human rights
violations discussed during the review
were deeply disappointing, as they often
contained only denials and showed a lack
of respect for victims and their rights,‖
noted Wong Kai Shing, Executive Director
of the Asian Human Rights Commission
(AHRC).
http://www.humanrights.asia/
42. Press Release
From the Asian Human Rights Commission
May 23, 2012
… Many of the AHRC and ALRC’s
concerns were shared by states
conducting the review. Sweden, Germany
and Switzerland, for example, expressed
concerns regarding the persecution of
religious minority groups in Indonesia,
including Ahmadiyah, Christians, Shiites
and the Baha’i. …
http://www.humanrights.asia/
43. Press Release
From the Asian Human Rights Commission
May 23, 2012
A number of states, including France, Japan
and New Zealand, raised the situation in
Papua, which includes widespread violence,
arbitrary arrests and detentions, as well as
unlawful restrictions of freedom of expression
and assembly. France called in particular for
access to Papua to be granted to foreign
journalists. The US and Germany raised
articles 106 and 110 of the Penal Code which
are used abusively against activists in Papua.
46. May 24, 2012
Compare:
―The United Nations Human Rights Council
(UNHRC) has praised the Indonesian
government’s efforts to promote human
rights, Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa
said.‖ (first paragraph: Jakarta Post)
―Indonesia is facing fresh criticism over its
human rights record following a year of
continued unrest and the jailing of leading
political activists in Papua.‖ (first paragraph:
Sydney Morning Herald)
48. Aspects of international
news
Who is the reporter? (background,
experience, language skills)
Local reporter, native speaker
Foreign reporter
What is the story? (for example, Lady
Gaga? Or violence in Papua?)
What is the interest level in the receiving
country? (near or far? Friends or
enemies?)
49. What kind of news about Indonesia
is seen in the foreign newspapers
and TV news?
50. Search on Google News for ―indonesia‖
Lady Gaga Cancels Indonesian Concert After Threat
(The Wall Street Journal and many others)
Child addicts at heart of Indonesia anti-smoking suit
(Chicago Tribune and others)
Australian foreign minister denies making deal to get
high-profile Indonesia inmate clemency (The
Washington Post)
Indonesia says to release Australian Corby in 2017 (Agence
France-Presse)
Corby must spend five years in Indonesia (Sydney Morning
Herald)
IOI Plans Palm Oil Refinery in Indonesia as Production
Expands (Bloomberg News)
Landslide kills 6 gold miners in Indonesia
(Sacramento Bee and others)
From May 27, 2012
51. Most news about foreign countries
concerns wars, elections, and
natural disasters.
53. May 3, 2012
The same freelance
journalist, Sara Schonhardt,
wrote about Aceh and also
the previous story, about the
Indonesia Mengajar program
in Gobang, West Java.
54. May 1, 2012
The same
journalist, Sara
Schonhardt, also
wrote about a solar
power workshop,
held in Jakarta.
(Who chooses how
your country is
viewed, outside
your country?)
56. Facts to consider
Most of the news in any country will be
news about that country
The news about other countries will be
very limited
Big foreign countries (China, United
States) will get more coverage
Neighbor countries (Singapore,
Malaysia) will get more coverage
57. In an interconnected world, is it enough
to get such limited information
about all the other countries?
58. If you see news about another country on
TV, ask yourself:
Who made this news report?
What country does the reporter come
from?
Why did the TV news decide to include
this report?
59. Indonesia’s global issues
Loss of rainforests
Palm oil plantations (perkebunan kelapa
sawit)
Orang-utan habitats
Migrant workers (workers from
Indonesia, working in other countries)
Human rights (especially in Papua; and
also, religious freedom in all provinces)
60. How would these stories be different
if the reporters interviewed
the average people who are affected?
61. ―Press release journalism‖
Lazy journalism
Not original, not special, not really
valuable
No original sources, just officials
Lacks context
Does not show the big picture
62. ―Press release journalism‖
Lazy journalism
Not original, not special, not really
valuable
No original sources, just officials
Lacks context
Does not show the big picture
Is NOT global journalism
63. ―Envelope journalism‖
Lazy journalism
Not original, not special, not really
valuable
No original sources, just officials
Lacks context
Does not show the big picture
Is NOT global journalism
64. Global journalism: Review
A style of reporting and analyzing news
events
People: Journalists around the world
Reporting from other countries: Same
story, different viewpoints / The foreign
correspondent
66. Global journalism: Review
All three perspectives encourage us to
think about the effects of journalism:
What kinds of journalism can help
people understand the world?
How can journalism become better?
67. Today, we all have
choices
Members of the public can use the Internet
to check facts and compare stories.
Citizens can demand better reporting and
more global perspectives in the journalism
from their own country.
U.S. Embassy program, Pontianak and Jakarta ------ Mindy McAdams -----CONTACT: http://mindymcadams.com/
The condition of the world is different today. In the past, the fate of all humanity was not so interconnected as it is today. Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858.
These issues involve many nations, and the people from many nations. These issues have NO geographic BORDERS.
We all live together in ONE WORLD. I will show 3 examples from the week of 21 May 2012.
Lady Gaga – an international pop superstar – born in Yonkers, New York, dropout from NYU. World tours. Controversy – protests from Muslims in Indonesia – protests from Christians in Philippines (and also in South Korea).
Egypt held historic elections on Wednesday and Thursday last week. This was big news everywhere in the world, even far away in Argentina (La Nacion is the most important newspaper in Argentina.). TRANSLATION: “The two most powerful institutions in Egypt, the military and the Muslim Brotherhood, fought, until a mid-June runoff election, a battle in a secular war to win the presidency of the Arab giant, if the partial results so far are confirmed from the first round of the Egyptian elections, held on last Wednesday and Thursday.“In the absence of definitive results ratified by the Board of Elections, the media yesterday said that Mohammed Morsi, the candidate of the Islamist group, and Ahmed Shafiq, the last Prime Minister of Hosni Mubarak, will contest the second round of a historic presidential election, the first after the riots last year put an end to the regime of former president.”
EtanPatz was a 6-year-old boy who lived in New York City with his parents. In 1979 he disappeared. Until last week, the crime was not solved. Now, 33 years later, a New York man has confessed to killing Etan (in 1979). But WHY is this news in the Sydney Morning Herald, an Australian newspaper? This was the top story on the WORLD news page at the SMH website at 6:45 p.m. Sydney time (but it was NOT featured on the front page).
Students should think about this: Entertainment is a global industry. The government of foreign countries can have effects on your own country. But some so-called news is just sensational – spectacular crimes, stolen children, etc. The question to consider is: Does the news have an impact outside the country where it happened? (If yes, then that is global news.)
This is what I will talk about.
PART 1
Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858. His research: BERGLEZ FOCUSES on reporting about climate change -- from this, he began to develop a theory of global journalism. Peter Berglez
This research until now includes all of these topics. Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858. [PAGE 846.]

Berglez proposes something new, a new way of doing journalism – and a way of looking at journalistic coverage of stories – that acknowledges our interconnected-ness. Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858.
This is BERGLEZ’s definition and HIS vision. This is not a universal theory – not yet. Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858. [PAGE 847]

“… a global news style emerges as a result of the symbiosis of science and foreign journalism, the relational condition of the world is pointed out, or more specifically, the causal relationship between our everyday consumption of palm oil (via cooking and cosmetics) and the deforestation in Sumatra …” NOTICE HOW this excerpt does not put blame on INDONESIA – but rather it makes the point that GLOBAL DEMAND for a product is causing the destruction of the rain forests in Indonesia. Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858.
IT ALREADY EXISTS. But it’s not widespread – yet. Berglez, P. (2008). What is global journalism? Journalism Studies, 9(6), 845–858.
Not all journalism will be “global,” but having MORE reporting in this style (as Berglez explains it) will be helpful and can improve our world – and it can improve our individual nations too.
PART 2
Some researchers study the contents of news. Other researchers study the people who produce news content – the journalists.
David Weaver is one of the researchers who is well known for his research about journalists. The Global Journalist in the 21st Century: News People Around the World (Routledge, 2012) David Weaver and Lars Willnat, Eds.
The Global Journalist in the 21st Century: News People Around the World (Routledge, 2012) David Weaver and Lars Willnat, Eds.
NOTE Indonesian journalists in 2nd item!!!!! So what we can see here is that journalists do not all agree on what is acceptable or ethical behavior. http://bloomingtonpressclub.org/2011/07/01/weaver-explains-global-journalists-attitudes-practices/
Different countries > different laws that control the pressEach country has its own unique history > how did the press develop in that country? Journalists inherit much from the past of their own country http://bloomingtonpressclub.org/2011/07/01/weaver-explains-global-journalists-attitudes-practices/
We can see how someone who follows Berglez’s work about global journalism might start talking about global journalists – when they mean someone who is producing global journalism. But NOTE: That is NOT what Weaver means, and it is not what Seib means, when they use the term “global journalist.” They are NOT talking about the global journalism of Berglez.

Whenever a foreigner writes about your country, he or she will surely have a different perspective from a citizen of your country. The context is different. The background is different. BUT THE SAME IS TRUE for your home-grown journalists. They might be blind to some things that a foreigner will take note of.

The freelance journalist writes a blog about her life and work. It probably helps news organizations to find her, for assignments. http://sschonhardt.com/blog/
