1. News on the net: credibility, selective exposure, and racial prejudice

Abstract

An online survey was conducted to assess the perception of credibility of various forms of news media, including Internet news sites associated with traditional forms of media and nontraditional Internet news sites. The survey also explored a possible link between news media credibility and scores on a modern racism scale. This study found that people held differential perceptions of Internet news credibility. Specifically, nontraditional Internet sources were perceived as far less credible than all other news sources. After controlling for a number of factors, the results suggest that those who view non-traditional Internet news sources as more credible than traditional media also score higher on a modern racism scale. The theoretical implications of these findings are discussed, with a focus on the Internet as a safe haven for divergent, even racist, beliefs. Keywords: credibility; Internet; news; race; racism

2. The image of Australia in U.S. television news, 1986-1995

Author

Abstract

A study of the Australian news stories covered by the three main US television networks revealed that Australia received little coverage in the US between 1986 and 1995. These findings coincided with an earlier study that covered 1968 to 1985. The last three years studied showed a decrease in coverage of serious stories. Lack of coverage may be good for Australia since tourism declines during periods of perceived strife.

Abstract

Attempts to promote diversity in television newsrooms are underway not only because of legal pressure but also because, as the population changes, so does the viewing audience. However, smaller stations where journalists get their starts do not have pressure to diversify which limits the number of qualified minority journalists. The Asian, African American, Hispanic and Native American journalist associations joined in 1994 for their annual convention to promote the training, hiring and promotion of minorities. Increased diversity can increase the value of reporting.

Abstract

Broadcasters are wondering about the extent to which they will have to adapt their news and current affairs programmes following the emphatic yes vote in the Scottish devolution referendum on Sep. 11, 1997. Gus Macdonald of Scottish Media Group has already proposed a Scottish version of ITN's 'News at Ten' programme while the BBC is considering replacing its Six O'Clock News and the half-hour regional news programme that follows with a national news hour catering for a variety of centres. However the abandonment of a London, England-based news agenda risks creating a 'little Scotland' mentality.

Abstract

Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have been prevented from broadcasting their own version of news at 6pm because the government wants to preserve an element of nationhood by maintaining one national news programme. This one programme implies that everyone in the United Kingdom has shared interests. There is also an element of control by London in dictating what is broadcast. The government fears that Scotland will come to see itself as a separate country if it has its own programme.

Abstract

'Newsround' Britain's only news bulletin aimed at children, regularly attracts 1/4 of all television viewers at 5pm on weekdays. The success of 'Newsround' stems from its approach of assuming no background knowledge on the part of its audience and ensuring that every story is self-explanatory. 'Newsround' which celebrates its 25th anniversary with a special programme on May 5, 1997, was written, edited and presented by John Craven for 17 years. Craven stopped presenting 'Newsround' in 1989 after realising that all the people working alongside him had watched the programme as children.
