Abstract This article reports on a study that was situated at the intersection of fake news and the daily news production practices of mainstream journalists during the November 2017 “soft coup” in Zimbabwe. There is a paucity of research on journalists’ responses to fake news, during military coups, despite increasing research on the influence of fake news on traditional news production practices. Conceptualised on social organisation of news work, the study deployed qualitative interviews with purposively selected political reporters from mainstream press newsrooms in Zimbabwe, to explore how they responded to fake news during the coup. The study found that faced with an avalanche of fake news, the journalists responded by re-evaluating their news sourcing routines and engaged in collective efforts to identify sources and pressure points of fake news that interfered with their work. Yet, overt reliance on unreliable websites and social media sources to produce news still persisted. Based on this and other related findings, the authors recommend that journalists should evolve their own platforms and mechanisms to verify and challenge fake news prevalent on social media and websites. They further recommend a “triangular approach” that can, in the long term, reduce the influence of fake news.

Abstract This article reports on a study that focused on the radio broadcasting and licensing scene in Zimbabwe between 2000 and 2020. The study interrogated the sincerity of the Zimbabwean government in advancing both media pluralism and diversity. Opposition political parties and civic organisations pressured Zimbabwe into adopting a liberal approach that they hoped would widen the political and media space. The study examined how the government has taken and implemented such a liberal approach. Drawing on the competitive authoritarianism concept, the study argued that the cosmetic application of contested and undemocratic media laws that pretended to be democratising the media was indeed gagging democracy. This is called a pseudo-progressive stance. The study gathered data using qualitative interviews with three media activists, three policymakers, two media professionals, and two media scholars in Zimbabwe. In total, 10 qualitative key informant in-depth interviews were carried out. The analysis revealed a silhouette of grandiose but empty media laws that have continued to impede democracy in Zimbabwe. Therefore, the study concluded that the monopoly of media influence and concentration of broadcasting media ownership within the ruling party is dire and not conducive to the development of diverse and creative content for the nation. Thus, collaborative efforts are needed for real change to be achieved in the broadcasting media in Zimbabwe.

对于西班牙导演和风景画家卡洛斯·绍拉来说，音乐是他作品的基本美学支柱。《Porque te vas》是克里亚·库埃沃斯(Cria Cuervos)令人着迷的旋律，在观众不可挽回的记忆中，它仍然存在。“我所有的电影都是音乐电影!”一般来说，当我们谈论电影时，图像比声音环境更重要。这种观点在Saura中是相对的。在他的电影中，音乐与……
