Suppression Orders: Reskilling Journalists And The Judiciary, Mark Pearson, Caroline Graham Nov 2012

Suppression Orders: Reskilling Journalists And The Judiciary, Mark Pearson, Caroline Graham

Caroline Graham

Journalists, media organisations and industry bodies have long complained about the number of suppression orders issued in Australia each year and the inconsistency of approaches across the nation's nine jurisdictions. State and federal governments have recently taken steps towards developing a national notification system for supression orders, which would at least improve communication to media organisations about the order. Yet important problems still remain for journalists trying to cover court cases, including the widely varied approaches of judicial officers, financial constraints on media organisations which have previously appealed such orders and the inexperience of journalists with the process of objecting …


The New, Old Journalism: Narrative Writing In Contemporary Newspapers, Jane Johnston, Caroline Graham Nov 2012

The New, Old Journalism: Narrative Writing In Contemporary Newspapers, Jane Johnston, Caroline Graham

Caroline Graham

While there is a significant literature on the rise of narrative journalism in daily newspapers, mostly from the United States, few studies have investigated the breakdown of newswriting styles in the front end of the newspaper, with a specific focus on the use of narrative techniques. This study investigates the writing styles of two daily metropolitan print newspapers in order to provide some concrete data on narrative news reporting in Australia. In a sense, it responds to Mark Kramer's comment in 2000 that “no one has added up the reallocated column inches to quantify this change.” The research analyses 5000 …

Multimedia Journalism As A Research Method - A New Approach, Mark Pearson, Roger Patching Sep 2012

Multimedia Journalism As A Research Method - A New Approach, Mark Pearson, Roger Patching

Roger Patching

Journalism has long been considered the subject of academic research rather than a research method in its own right (Hartely, 1995, p.27). Scholars have considered the use of both qualitative and quantitative academic methods in mainstream journalistic practice. Others have argued that major works of journalism should be accepted by the university and research sectors as the equivalent of academic research (Bacon, 2009). But only recently have some posited the notion that the journalistic combination of deadline-centred, source-based, document-sifting, interview-oriented, multi-tasking research could constitute a distinctive research method of value to academic researcher; particularly those focused on journalism theory and …
