This document discusses the key principles of journalism verification. It emphasizes that journalism's focus on accuracy separates it from other forms of media like entertainment and propaganda. Journalists must have credible sources, check their facts, and exercise objectivity, transparency and originality in their reporting. This includes disclosing sources, seeking multiple perspectives, and doing their own reporting rather than relying on other media. Accuracy and transparency are essential for journalists to maintain credibility and trustworthiness.

Manual for investigative journalism
This manual provides guidance on the techniques and methods of investigative journalism. It introduces an approach called "hypothesis-based inquiry" or "story-based inquiry" where journalists formulate a hypothetical story early in the process to guide their research and reporting. This helps the journalist identify the necessary information, facilitates organizing research materials, and results in a story that can be easily promoted and remembered. The manual was created through a collaborative process by a group of international investigative journalists and draws on methods from other fields like business consulting and police work. It aims to strengthen investigative journalism by making the process more efficient and the final stories more compelling.
Digital First journalism
This document discusses the priorities and workflows of Digital First journalists. Digital First means digital platforms like websites, blogs, social media are the top priority over print newspapers. Journalists produce content initially for digital before print. Their workflows focus on live blogging, engaging with communities, experimenting with new tools, and covering news as it happens online. The document provides examples of how a court reporter and visual journalist may structure their day-to-day work under a Digital First approach.
Beat reporting
This document provides guidance for beat reporters on how to effectively cover specific areas or "beats" on a regular basis. It defines what a beat is and lists common beats such as government, education, police, and business. The document advises reporters to be familiar with the background of their beat, know the relevant language, ask the right questions, recognize newsworthy information, and write understandable stories. It also provides tips for beat reporters such as doing regular follow-up coverage, building relationships with sources, asking clarifying questions, and getting out of the office to observe events firsthand. The overall document offers practical strategies for beat reporters to cultivate news on their assigned area and communicate information clearly to readers.
Press release
A press release is a written statement provided to media outlets to publicize news or events. It aims to generate news stories and is a fundamental public relations tool. An effective press release reads like a news article, with quotes, sources and timely, newsworthy information about people, organizations or topics of interest. It should not seem overly promotional but rather provide an information subsidy for reporters. Video and audio news releases also aim to shape public opinion by mimicking news reporting formats.

(1) Media freedom and pluralism are important for democracy by facilitating information flow to citizens and exposing governments to scrutiny, which leads citizens to make informed political choices.
(2) There are challenges in measuring media pluralism across contexts due to disagreements over indicators and challenges in standardizing versus contextualizing approaches. Quantitative methods provide comparable data but may lose context, while qualitative methods provide explanations but are harder to compare.
(3) Past studies have measured media pluralism using legal, socio-demographic and economic indicators, but there are debates around how to identify the right indicators and frame comparative research designs to standardize measurement while accounting for national contexts. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches have benefits and limitations.Internal vs external public of public relations

Slides from my presentation at Creuna Seminar on Blogging, held at Ingeniorenes Hus, Oslo, on June 1st 2011.
Advertising agency
An advertising agency is an independent business that develops and places advertising campaigns for clients. The agency's functions include researching the target market, planning advertising strategies, creating creative content, selecting appropriate media, and managing the advertising budget. Within the agency are departments focused on account management, creative work, media planning, production, and research.

PRINT JOURNALISM II- REWRITING OF A NEWS STORY
Rewriting involves rewriting a news story to improve clarity, readability, and uniformity. Stories may need rewriting if they are badly written, poorly organized, wordy, unprofessional, or out of date. The purpose of rewriting is to dismantle and then rebuild the information in a new, better structure. It can condense reports, link several reports on the same topic, and improve the language. Editing focuses on language, facts, grammar and punctuation, while rewriting focuses on structure, treatment and flow. The rewritten story should be an improved version that elaborates on important facts and emphasizes key elements not fully covered originally.
Trends in Online Journalism
The document discusses trends in online journalism, including opportunities for web editors and producers. Some of the highest paying jobs include web editors and producers. Skills valued for these roles include writing, technical abilities, news judgment, and multimedia skills. Online journalism is evolving with new forms of storytelling using multimedia and participation from readers. Citizen and mobile journalism are emerging trends.
Media gate keeping theory
The document discusses the concept of gatekeeping, which was coined by Kurt Lewin in 1947 to refer to the process by which certain individuals control the flow of information to larger groups. Gatekeepers decide what messages or content will be allowed to pass through gates or filters to be distributed and consumed by others. The document provides examples of gatekeepers in media like newspaper editors and television news producers. It also discusses how gatekeeping theory has been applied across various fields of study.
Media Management
Media planning involves setting objectives for reach, frequency, and weight to deliver messages to target audiences. A media strategy is then developed considering the target, budget, scheduling, creative elements, and weight of delivery across different media. Media buying implements the strategy by selecting specific media vehicles, negotiating placements, and monitoring performance. Research is crucial to the planning and buying processes to understand audiences, costs, and media environment.

Evaluation of print media and newspaper
The document discusses the history and development of media in India. It notes that print media was first established in India in the late 18th century, and was the dominant form of media for some time. However, television and other forms of media have since emerged and grown. Print media still plays an important role, especially for rural and agricultural communities by increasing awareness and sharing information. Newspapers remain an important form of print media in India, with some of the highest circulated newspapers in the world. The top circulating newspapers are primarily in Hindi, English, and other regional languages.
Functions of mass Media
This document contains details of a student submitting a paper for their Mass Communication and Media Studies course, including their name, enrollment number, roll number, paper number, and contact information. It provides definitions of mass media as forms of communication to large groups ranging from handmade signs to international news networks. It also defines mass media sociology and provides examples of historical movies, serials, and epics that could be studied, as well as examples of product advertisements.
Social media for political campaign in India
The document discusses the importance of social media in political campaigns. It notes that social media has become an essential tool for political parties and candidates to communicate with voters, especially youth voters. It provides statistics on user bases for platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ and examines how different political parties in India, like the BJP, Congress, and AAP, utilize these and other social media platforms in their campaigns.
Paul Lazarsfeld limited effects theory
Paul Lazarsfeld developed the limited effects theory, which argues that the media has limited impact on shaping people's opinions. According to the theory, only a small subset of people are open to psychological manipulation by the media, and media messages are filtered through interpersonal relationships as people seek opinions from friends and family before forming their own views. The media also has limited impact because individuals and groups have different characteristics and backgrounds that influence how they perceive media messages.
Environmental Journalism
The environment is everything that makes up our surrounding and affects our ability to live, including the social and cultural forces that shape the life of a person or a population.
Personal Influence
This document discusses the personal influence that people have on how mass communications are received and their effects. It examines how interpersonal relationships and social ties can change the way individuals are impacted by media like movies, music, radio, and news. Through case studies, it explores how children who enjoy certain genres may seek out peer relationships related to that, how social pressure from friends can influence music interests, and how planned listening groups are more impactful than isolated consumption of radio broadcasts.
Socialresponsibilitytheory
The document discusses the social responsibility theory of the press. It argues that while the press is free from government interference, it can still be controlled by corporate interests if it is not vigilant. The press has a duty to provide information needed for political systems and self-governance, act as a government watchdog, bring together buyers and sellers, provide entertainment, and be profitable enough to avoid outside pressures. The theory essentially advocates for non-authoritarian media controls, as seen in some form in France, Israel, and Sweden.
Lesson 4 - Media Audiences
Audiences are important for media organizations to make profits through advertising or subscriptions. New technologies have impacted traditional media by giving audiences more options to access media in different ways. Media institutions make money through subscription fees or advertising targeting mass audiences or niche groups. Audiences can be passive, directly accepting media messages, or active in interpreting messages in personally meaningful ways based on their needs and experiences.
Verification
The document discusses key principles of objective journalism such as verification, transparency, accuracy, and fairness. It emphasizes that journalists should verify information through multiple sources, be transparent in their methods and assumptions, correct errors, and avoid deceptive practices or presenting unverified information as fact. The overall message is that journalists provide information to facilitate public discussion but should not insert their own perspectives or push a particular viewpoint.
The Origins and Evolution of Fact-Checking, and The New Urgency of Verification
A presentation delivered at AEJMC 2014, this provides a brief history of fact-checking, and looks at its evolution as a form of journalism. It also offers some guidance on the importance of verification, and why it needs to be taught.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
