Newspapers are facing an uncertain future as fewer young people regularly read print editions. Traditionally, newspapers generated most of their revenue from advertising and some from print subscriptions. However, more newspapers are now implementing digital paywalls and exploring new revenue models like mobile and online advertising to offset declines in print advertising revenue. Newspapers are also reducing costs by cutting staff and eliminating sections. The traditional news cycle involved daily meetings to assign stories which reporters would write and file by the afternoon for editors to work on meeting evening print deadlines. Key positions in the newsroom include publishers, editors, reporters, copy editors, photographers, and graphics staff.

Germany has a population of over 80 million people with major cities including Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, and Cologne. The culture is influenced by a Germanic tradition with influences from its Catholic and Protestant populations. Key holidays include Christmas, Easter and Oktoberfest. The economy relies on exports and manufacturing, with the Deutsche Mark as currency and Frankfurt Stock Exchange as the leading exchange. Infrastructure is highly developed with transportation and communication networks connecting the country. Business conditions require navigating tax and legal requirements while cultural aspects like modesty and formality influence interactions.

Raising your media profile: how to grab media attention - Allied Health Prof...Sue Featherstone
How to grab media attention
If you want people to know what you do and how you do it and why what you do is important, you need to TELL them.
Being featured in newspapers, magazines and on TV and radio is a great way to spread the word and raise your media profile.
Unfortunately, lots of other people are also competing for that media space so, to help you get ahead of the competition, here are a few simple tips on how to grab media attention.
Major British news companies like the BBC, Daily Mail, Guardian, Sky News and The Independent have released news apps that allow the public to access their reporting on their phones. Recent headlines across the apps focused on bomb attacks in the US. While most apps have top news tabs updated hourly, The Independent requires payment to access full news stories. The platforms differ in their language styles - the Daily Mail uses more informal language compared to the others. They also vary in their target audiences, levels of bias, and monetization approaches. Pictures, videos and easy sharing features help maintain audience engagement across devices.

Broadcast news is gathered, edited, produced and distributed by both news broadcast institutions like the BBC and independent news agencies like Reuters. News agencies employ journalists worldwide to collect stories and footage that is then sold to broadcasters. Broadcast news is manufactured through the way it is collected, constructed and transmitted. News broadcasters buy footage from agencies and also gather their own regional/national news to construct stories that suit their target audiences. A news editor decides the daily news agenda and story selection based on pre-planned and breaking news events.
This document discusses the evolution of journalism business models over time from print newspapers to digital media. It explores how newspapers were traditionally funded through advertising and subscriptions but faced challenges as media shifted to the web. New forms of digital journalism emerged but monetizing online content remains an issue. The structure of media ownership is also addressed, from individual ownership in the early days of print to contemporary media consolidation and the role of both commercial and public service models.
This document provides an overview of the history and principles of photojournalism. It discusses how photojournalism captures important moments in history and influences public opinion. Early photojournalists like Mathew Brady documented the Civil War, while others like Dorothea Lange captured the hardships of the Great Depression. The development of new technologies like portable cameras, film, and digital photography have expanded the capabilities of photojournalism. Today, photojournalists aim to tell compelling stories through images and may use multimedia platforms. Proper composition, ethics, and accuracy remain important principles of the craft.

The document discusses the roles and positions within a television broadcast newsroom, including the news director, producer, assignment editor, anchor, reporter, photographer, video editor, graphic artist, and others. It also covers key principles of broadcast news like focusing on visuals, timeliness, and simplicity. Basic story formats are defined, like packages, readers, voiceovers. The advantages are conveying events in real-time with visual impact, while disadvantages include limited airtime, context, and prioritizing entertaining over substantive stories.
Here are three reasons from a newspaper naysayer's perspective:
1. Declining print readership and advertising revenue shows newspapers are becoming obsolete as more people, especially younger generations, get their news online.
2. The internet allows for faster, more frequent updates which newspapers can't compete with due to their print cycles. People want real-time information.
3. While some papers have had success with paywalls, most people are accustomed to free news online and aren't willing to pay for content they've been getting freely. Paywalls may slow the revenue decline but won't stop it.
Newspapers played an important role but times have changed. Their future is uncertain at best no matter how optimistic publishers are.
Newspapers are facing an uncertain future as fewer young people regularly read print editions. Traditionally, newspapers generated most of their revenue from advertising and some from print subscriptions. However, ownership has increasingly consolidated into fewer companies. Newspapers follow a traditional production cycle of daily meetings to assign and edit stories for print. Key roles in the newsroom include editors, reporters, photographers and graphic artists who work together to publish new content each day. However, the industry is struggling to adapt to the digital transition and declining revenues have forced newsrooms to reduce staff sizes.
This document discusses the use of social media by journalists. It provides examples of how journalists are using platforms like Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn to engage with audiences, break news stories, crowdsource information and build their personal brands. The document also addresses some of the challenges of using social media, such as spreading staff too thin or distributing wrong information. Overall, the key message is that social media allows journalists to be more transparent and connect with audiences in new ways, but it also requires careful use to ensure accuracy and represent appropriate identities.
The document discusses various roles and responsibilities of state governments. It notes that state constitutions have certain shared components like legislatures and governors, but also vary in areas like education, health, transportation and criminal justice. It also discusses state finances through balanced budgets and revenue sources. Federalism creates both national and state powers that sometimes overlap on issues like immigration and same-sex marriage.
The document discusses the rise of citizen journalism and how it is challenging traditional media models. It outlines how the internet has empowered readers and viewers to participate in content creation and distribution. The old top-down model of journalists creating and controlling the dissemination of content has been replaced by a more collaborative model where consumers can participate and share information directly. This "democratization of content" has given rise to participatory and niche journalism where individuals can cover issues themselves. Several examples are provided of how bloggers and citizen journalists have broken major stories.
This document discusses public journalism and the role of satire in journalism. It examines how The Daily Show and The Colbert Report engage audiences and promote civic participation more than traditional news. While some argue these shows do a better job informing viewers, others note journalists have an obligation to accuracy that comedians do not. The document also outlines principles of journalism like focusing on issues' consequences rather than horse races, and framing them based on their effects, to better serve democracy.
This document discusses the evolution of journalism business models over time from print newspapers to digital media. It explores how newspapers were traditionally funded through advertising and subscriptions but struggled as audiences shifted to online and mobile platforms. The growth of the internet allowed new forms of journalism to emerge but also led to media consolidation and challenges in developing sustainable revenue models. The text examines these trends and debates around commercial versus public service approaches to the "business of journalism."
This document discusses principles of journalism and news. It covers several topics:
1. Group assignments for a journalism class - students will lead discussions on assigned readings and be prepared to summarize articles.
2. Three common metaphors for journalism - the mirror, the watchdog, and the marketplace. Each fulfills different democratic needs like information dissemination and accountability.
3. A definition of journalism as a set of transparent and independent procedures to gather and report truthful information for citizens in a democracy.
Key aspects of journalism discussed are that it must be free but also responsible, and perform functions important to democratic governance like informing citizens and holding power accountable.

This document discusses citizen journalism and its relationship with professional journalism. It explores both the pros and cons of citizen journalism, such as expanded coverage but potential unreliability. It examines different definitions of citizen journalism and how it can serve as a resource for professionals while maintaining journalistic standards. The document also details CNN's process for vetting citizen journalism submissions, emphasizing verification. Engagement between citizens and journalists is presented as valuable when content is carefully edited. Skills like accuracy are argued as necessary for high-quality citizen journalism.

This document outlines the key topics and readings for a journalism class on how news is made. It includes:
1) Group assignments where students will lead discussions on assigned reading questions and reporting on group attendance.
2) An overview of chapter 3 which covers the distinctions between news, information and journalism, criteria for newsworthiness, the news making process, news beats, enterprise stories, pseudo events and how news is constructed and commodified.
3) Examples of news values like timeliness, proximity, impact and entertainment that influence newsworthiness.
4) The sources of news like planned events, beats, investigations and examples of distinguishing news from just information.
The document discusses the rise of citizen journalism and how it has disrupted traditional media models. It outlines how the internet has empowered readers and viewers to take on more active roles as content creators and collaborators. This "democratization of content" has flipped the traditional model where media organizations solely created and distributed content to audiences. Now, consumers can also act as producers by directly publishing their stories, videos, and perspectives through new digital tools. This participatory model has given more diverse voices a platform and made verifying and spreading information in real time a collaborative process.
This document discusses public journalism and the roles of satirists like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert. It explores whether they should be considered journalists and how their shows impact political discourse. While some argue they confuse facts and issues, others believe they better engage audiences and hold traditional journalists accountable. The document also notes the risks of misleading information but that humor can unite audiences around issues. It concludes with questions about whether such shows help or hurt journalism.
States have authority over family laws, professional standards, and areas like education, health, transportation, economic development, and criminal justice. They are also responsible for creating balanced budgets by projecting revenue from taxes, fees, and federal sources to match planned expenses. While states have autonomy, their power is limited, as seen in cases like Arizona v. United States, where the Supreme Court ruled federal immigration law can both preclude state enforcement efforts and preempt conflicting state laws.
This document provides an overview of the American Revolution and the creation of the US Constitution. It discusses the failures of the Articles of Confederation, the key compromises reached at the Constitutional Convention including the three-fifths compromise and slavery, and the ratification of the Constitution. Key principles of the Constitution such as separation of powers, checks and balances, and federalism are also outlined.
The document discusses how England established its American colonies as part of its mercantilist economic empire. Mercantilism aimed to accumulate gold and silver by exporting goods from the colonies to England and restricting colonial trade with other nations. The Navigation Acts from the 1660s to 1760s established England's mercantilist system by requiring enumerated goods be shipped only on English vessels, banning direct trade between colonies and other European powers, and tweaking commodity regulations over time, though enforcement was loose until the 1760s.

Newspapers: Key Concepts
• Newspapers are highly profitable businesses, but they are
facing an uncertain future because fewer and fewer young
people seem to be reading them regularly.
• One of the major trends for newspapers during the last
half of the 20th century was concentration of ownership;
that is, fewer and fewer companies are owning more and
more newspapers.
• Newspapers get revenue from two sources: 60 to 80
percent from advertising and 20 to 40 percent from
sales and circulation.

3. 3
The ―Traditional‖ Cycle
• Daily news meetings in morning and afternoon
• Morning meeting discusses major stories
• Afternoon meeting discusses what goes on front
page and section fronts
• Weekend sections meetings typically on
Wednesday to discuss what‘s going in Sunday‘s
newspaper
• Reporters generate their own ideas OR are
assigned
• Editors are working on stories for the daily
newspaper, and many days in advance
4. 4
The ―Traditional‖ Cycle cont.
• Reporters work independently throughout the day
• Coordinate with photographers and graphic artists
as needed
• File stories by mid to late afternoon
• Editors work on stories throughout the day, pushing
towards evening deadlines for various editions:
• One Star – prints by 7 pm
• Two Star – prints by 9 pm
• Three Star – prints by 11
• Final Edition – prints by 1 a.m.
5. 5
Need to Know Terms
• Circulation
• The average number of copies of a newspaper
distributed or sold in a given time period. Often
expressed as daily circulation (Monday-Saturday) or
Sunday circulation.
• Paywall
• A policy of limiting access to a website (or a part of a
website) to users who pay a fee or purchase a
subscription.
• E-editions
• E-editions include paid online subscriptions,
subscriptions on e-readers (Kindles, iPads, Nooks or
others) and e-replica editions (full online reproductions
of newspapers, typically viewed on a computer).

Major Trends
Paywalls
• Digital pay plans are being adopted at 450 of the country‘s
1,380 dailies and appear to be working not just at The
New York Times but also at small and mid-sized papers.1
• digital paywall movement has circulation revenues holding
steady or rising with the help of increases in print
subscriptions and single-copy price.
• Together with the other new revenue streams, these
added circulation revenues are rebalancing the industry‘s
portfolio from its historic over-dependence on advertising.

websites, or e-reader editions — in their total circulation.

newspapers‘ total average circulation, up from 14.2 percent in
March 2012.
• Branded editions, which are newspaper-owned products
such as commuter, community, alternative-language or
Sunday-Select type newspapers, may also be included in total
circulation. Branded editions account for 5.1 percent of U.S.
newspapers‘ total average circulation, up from 4.5 percent in
March 2012.

Typical News Story Structure
A student at a Nevada middle school opened fire with a
semi-automatic handgun on campus just before the
starting bell Monday, wounding two 12-year-old boys and
killing a math teacher who was trying to protect children
from their classmate.
The unidentified shooter killed himself with the gun after a
rampage that occurred in front of 20 to 30 horrified
students who had just returned to school from a weeklong
fall break. Authorities did not provide a motive for the
shooting, and it's unknown where the student got the gun.

Teacher Michael Landsberry was being hailed for his
actions during the shooting outside Sparks Middle School.
"In my estimation, he is a hero. ... We do know he was
trying to intervene," Reno Deputy Police Chief Tom
Robinson said.
Both wounded students were listed in stable condition.
One was shot in the shoulder, and the other was hit in the
abdomen.
