Most books rely on the work and contributions of many persons in addition to the person named on the cover. That is especially the case here. Many sections of the text are informed by the work of partners in a multi-country research project: Media and Ethics of the European Public Sphere From the Treaty of Rome to the War on Terror (eMEDIATE). The project was funded by the EUs Sixth Framework research programme (Priority 7: Citizens and Governance in a Knowledge-Based Society, Project number CIT2-CT-2004506027).
Various section of this book draw upon research reports, workshop discussions and other contributions by my eMEDIATE project partners. Thus, I wish to acknowledge the help and contributions of partners in Utrecht (for research on the Netherlands and Italy), Paris (France and Spain), Budapest (Hungary), Ljubljana (Slovenia and Serbia) and Dublin (Britain and Ireland). So a big thank you goes to Jacques Guyot, Anik Horvth, Andrs Kovcs, James Kaye, Primo Kraovec, Michal Krzyzanowski, Hagen Schulz-Forberg, Bo Strath, Jessika ter Wal, Ruth Wodak, Anna Triandafyllidou, Lenka Waschkova Cisarova, and Igor Zagar. And a special dedication is due to Andrej Pinter. However, the usual disclaimers apply, as responsibility for any errors, contentious claims and the rest reside with the present author.
I must especially acknowledge the various contributions of several colleagues involved in the research team and in supporting roles in Dublin City University. I want to thank John Horgan (my fellow coordinator till his retirement) for his inputs, support and advice in the first two years of the eMEDIATE project. I also express my appreciation for the valuable inputs of other members of the local DCU research team who worked on this project: Monika Metykova, Niamh Puirsil, Lughaidh OBraonain, and Gary Quinn. Special thanks to Mami Ishikawa for her excellent work in sifting and sub-editing the various project reports and bibliographies, and to Pauline Jones for her diligent and patient work on the administrative aspects. All contributed to the successful completion of this project.
I also wish to thank the editorial team at Routledge, Natalie Foster, Paola Celli and Charlotte Wood, for their advice, patience and support in making this book possible.
Journalism in a state of flux?
A subject so complex as journalism can be treated with advantage from very different standpoints.
(Carl Bcher, 1901:215)
To declare that journalism and newsmaking are in a state of flux and subject to deep, multi-dimensional changes in the first decade of the twenty-first century may be an understatement. We dont merely refer to the multiple innovations in the production and distribution of news enabled by the Internet and a whole cluster of other radical technological developments. Nor only to the growing array of news media products and formats available on our television and computer screens, mobile handsets or other devices, all promising up-to-the-second, mobile and ambient news services in keeping with our brave new, knowledgebased or networked society. Nor are we only thinking of the more recent buzz around user-generated content, audience engagement in the co-production of news or even the evolution of a new species, citizen-journalists, threatening the privileged status if not the survival of the old professional sort. Certainly, these constitute important and much-studied aspects of the state of flux in newsmaking today. But they are also accompanied by other significant, if old, concerns to do with the qualitative aspects of news culture. We refer to concerns about the substantive or quality aspects of news culture, including journalisms changing roles and responsibilities towards its
