Guided by the framework of reciprocity on social media, the current study investigated antecedents of news sharing. Using a two-wave panel survey involving 868 respondents who took two surveys about one year apart, this study examined the effect of frequency of receiving news on social media on subsequent news-sharing behaviour, while controlling for demographics, news-sharing motivations and trust in social media news. The study found that motivation for self-presentation and trust in news shared by one's social media network positively predicted news sharing on social media. Frequency of receiving news at Time 1 also predicted sharing news subsequently at Time 2. This points to news being valued as a form of social currency.

This study explores the process of emotional labour in journalism. In a series of one-on-one interviews, journalists reflected upon their experiences while gathering the news and agreed they do indeed engage in emotional labour, suppressing or manipulating their own emotions as part of the job at hand. However, while journalists across media share much in common in this process, this study identifies important subsets within the profession. Across the divide of print and television, journalists draw on quite different types of working practice in their pursuit of news and have markedly different mindsets and attitudes towards emotional labour, as well as relying on different mechanisms for coping with the difficulties that arise from emotional control. Our findings show that with little or no training in this practice, and with the majority of journalists achieving merely a deferment of upsetting emotions, emotional labour can have serious implications for those reporters who engage in it.

Shifts in the visual coverage of refugees arriving in Europe and prominent compassion fatigue emphasize the need to examine visual strategies utilized to report on the crisis. This study focuses on representations of refugee children using a case of the World Press Photo (WPP) 2016. The material was interpreted with a model for visual rhetorical interpretation of journalistic photographs. Findings indicate the main visual elements involved in representing refugee children: visual trope of the migrant father, relation between children and barriers, visual oxymoron (juxtaposition of contradictory elements) and atmosphere in photographs. Findings suggest that photographs address polemics specific to the European refugee crisis. Specifically, we found that showing children in photographs can elicit compassion for children as well as accompanying (male) adults, legitimize the act of crossing borders, and define the ‘crisis’ as the situation and not as the refugees themselves.
