The rise of social media has spawned private news organizations in China that are encountering problems regarding how to gain public and journalistic acceptance and recognition as newcomers and how to survive without a news license. Drawing on organizational legitimacy theory, this paper investigates the strategies employed by private news organizations to construct multiple layers of legitimacy including regulatory, normative and cognitive legitimacy in China's unique context and the social media era. Based on in-depth interviews with 20 practitioners of private news organizations and participant observation in one private news agency, findings showed that private news organizations (1) gain regulatory legitimacy through news production methods including “misplacing registration”, “playing with official hats” and “depoliticization”; (2) establish normative legitimacy by emphasizing their adherence to traditional journalistic values, norms, and routines, and their similarities to state-owned media; (3) obtain cognitive legitimacy through the creation of “hot news” with reliance on professional reputation. This study thereby explores these strategies to reflect the path of “dependent autonomy” of private news organizations and provides an institutional and organizational perspective to understand the constraints and characteristics of social media journalism in China.

ABSTRACTFollowing the early twenty-first Century’s “age of apologies,” news organizations have been among the institutions apologizing for their historical role in promoting racist rhetoric by directly addressing their inherent racialized biases. Guided by literature on organizational and racial apologia bolstered by the theory of “institutional myth”, this study analyzes 13 apologies published by 12 media organizations to understand how they are performing and communicating reparative actions towards communities of color. Despite their long role in promoting harmful stereotypes and in some cases a complete erasure of narrative from communities of color, news organizations presented “surface-level” apologies that paved the initial path to reconciliation. However, these organizations vigorously defend and uphold the institutional myth of established journalism norms and practices that have been instrumental in their failures, which have led to these apologies. We argue that the reparative work of journalism needs to start by creating an inclusive journalistic paradigm that centers on the ideologies and voices of all groups within our society.KEYWORDS: Newspaper apologyreparative journalisminstitutional mythjournalism historyracial apologiaorganizational apology Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

ABSTRACTAdvertising-supported journalism, conventionally referred to as “commercial news,” is in decline. Efforts to make sense of this fact have been hampered by the narrow assumption that commercial news is merely a business model. It is that, but it is also a distinctive cultural form of news, one that consists of purposes, definitions of news, modes of address, and practices of newsgathering that are specific to the form. Drawing on a review of the secondary literature as well as an analysis of news content from four commercially oriented news outlets, it is shown that this form of news has existed since the 1700s, and that many of the elements that make up the form have persisted ever since. Approaching commercial news in this way does not provide easy answers to questions raised by its decline. However, it does help scholars ask better questions about this remarkable transition in news production.KEYWORDS: Commercial newsadvertising-supported journalismcultural formnews productionmodern newshistory of news Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

Media representations have long reinforced Russia’s negative impression in the U.S. and that of the U.S. in Russia, shaping public opinion and foreign policy. While content analysts examine stereotypical frames in American and Russian news, questions remain about the relational dynamics steering these journalistic outcomes. This comparative study draws on 20 semi-structured interviews with Russian and American reporters stationed in the U.S. and Russia, respectively, prior to Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Situating journalists in their sociopolitical contexts reveals and explains the extent to and ways in which their relationship with other actors and institutions (re)produces and/or disrupts biases in news production. Foreign correspondents express dissatisfaction with dominant frames and deploy two main strategies to alter and enhance coverage—negotiating the narrative on the two countries and maximizing their purpose “on the ground”—yet their work often fortifies oversimplified and/or distorted messaging. While state regulation and ownership of the media disproportionately affects Russian journalists, both groups lack the agency to refine and rectify representations of Russia and the U.S. because of three shared challenges: the marketization of the news, the complexity of communicating foreign affairs, and the intensification of bilateral tensions.

ABSTRACTScience journalism associations at a national and international level have aimed to form networks of support for the professionalization of the field. In this article, we focus at the process of consolidation of one of the first of such international organizations: the Ibero-American Association of Science Journalism (AIPC), created in Medellín in 1969, which sowed the seeds for the creation of new national associations across Latin America and connected these national organizations in Latin America and Spain through international conferences, exchange programs, and training initiatives. Through the analysis of historical documentation from the personal archive of one of its main leaders, the Spanish Manuel Calvo Hernando, we explore the dynamic between the AIPC and the national associations in Latin America during this formative period.KEYWORDS: Manuel Calvo Hernandoscience journalismhistory of science journalismLatin Americascience journalism associationsscience communication AcknowledgementsThis paper was written in the scope of the Brazilian Institute of Public Communication of Science and Technology.

ABSTRACTResponding to criticisms that conflict reporting is at times overly sensational with negative impacts on individuals, peace journalism aims to shift journalistic attention from episodic, event-based reports to coverage highlighting structural causes of conflict as well as its peaceful transformation. However, little is known about how audiences perceive such reports, particularly when it comes to perceptions of credibility or trust. Using an experiment in the U.S. context, this study examines the effects of exposure to peace journalism on individuals’ perceptions of news-item credibility and trust in news media generally. Results show that peace-journalism framing may have short-term positive effects on individuals’ perceptions of a news article’s credibility, but general media trust is primarily driven by political ideology. Implications for journalism theory and practice are discussed.KEYWORDS: Peace journalismmedia trustnews credibilityconflict reportingframingexperiment Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).

ABSTRACTToday’s news users have a wide range of options when it comes to news consumption. Articles can be read on an app, via a news website, on social media or a printed newspaper. To provide these different platforms news media have become integrated newsrooms that shovel news as a standard practice. After posting a news article to the news website, the same news article can later appear on a social media platform like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. During the transportation from one platform to another the news inevitably undergoes changes. These remediations can be initiated by the platform: format-dependent constraints, e.g., the mandatory addition of a status message; based on preferences of the algorithm; or can be according to the personal preferences of the social media editor. Based on these insights we compiled a unique corpus of 109 news stories that map “a perfect chain” of science news in a one-to-one relationship between the news website, Facebook, and Instagram accounts of three traditional Flemish newspapers.

{"title":"Making it Fit: How Science News Gets Remediated for Facebook and Instagram","authors":"Marie Verstappen, Michaël Opgenhaffen","doi":"10.1080/1461670x.2023.2263799","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/1461670x.2023.2263799","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTToday’s news users have a wide range of options when it comes to news consumption. Articles can be read on an app, via a news website, on social media or a printed newspaper. To provide these different platforms news media have become integrated newsrooms that shovel news as a standard practice. After posting a news article to the news website, the same news article can later appear on a social media platform like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. During the transportation from one platform to another the news inevitably undergoes changes. These remediations can be initiated by the platform: format-dependent constraints, e.g., the mandatory addition of a status message; based on preferences of the algorithm; or can be according to the personal preferences of the social media editor. Based on these insights we compiled a unique corpus of 109 news stories that map “a perfect chain” of science news in a one-to-one relationship between the news website, Facebook, and Instagram accounts of three traditional Flemish newspapers. We manually explored the circulation flow of these news posts and identified the corresponding types of news remediation. These results contribute theoretical and practical insights into the affordances, characteristics and constraints of social media news.KEYWORDS: Remediationnews circulationscience newssocial mediaaffordancesInstagram AcknowledgementsWe would like to acknowledge Jack McMartin for initiating the research project “Circulation of Science News in the COVID-19 Era” (KU Leuven Impulse Fund) that laid the foundation for this paper.Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 The initial plan of the researchers was to include two outlets from different parent companies.

The debate over China’s economic influence on the European Union has grown prominent on both political and media agendas. However, little is known about how the UK media have framed EU–China trade relations in the past two decades. This case study employs a manual quantitative content analysis to investigate trends over time in the presence of frames and tone in UK newspaper coverage of EU–China trade relations (2001–2021) and to further explore differences between newspaper types in their portrayal of this topic (N = 600). Popular newspapers paid much less attention to EU–China trade relations than financial and quality newspapers but featured the most negative tone. Significant frame variation was detected over time and across newspapers, with the risk frame being the most visible. We also identified a significant negative correlation between tone and various frames. The findings not only contribute to existing economic news research by expanding on the theories of framing, negativity bias, and economic newsworthiness in the context of international trade relations but also carry implications for policy-makers and journalists.
