Desde o primeiro evento sobre jornalismo para dispositivos móveis, organizado pelo LABCOM em Outubro de 2109, esta área de investigação tem crescido a um ritmo assinalável. Na origem deste crescimento estarão certamente três fatores: a rápida evolução tecnológica, o sucesso comercial dos dispositivos e a aposta dos meios de comunicação social neste novo e promissor mercado. Este livro, que compila os melhores trabalhos apresentados no JDM 2014, mostra que o jornalismo móvel é um espaço de investigação com enorme potencial, possibilitando as mais variadas abordagens científicas.

Esta obra analiza el papel que desempeñaron los medios de comunicación españoles durante los primeros años de la crisis económica y segunda legislatura del socialista josé Luis Rodríguez Zapatero.

Desde la muerte del dictador en 1975 hasta la victoria socialista en las elecciones de octubre de 1982, salieron a la luz pública una serie de hechos y organizaciones (y hasta partes anatómicas, como las rodillas de «las camaradas») que habían estado cuidadosamente ocultos. Un periodo apasionante para todos los que lo vivieron, y de modo especial para quienes lo retrataron. No se trató únicamente de un cambio en lo que se ponía frente al objetivo de la cámara, sino de la aparición de un modo nuevo de trabajar: se pasó de hacer fotografías con una función de mero apoyo a los textos de la noticia, a la narración visual de la realidad desde un punto de vista más personal; de la somnolienta rutina del franquismo, a la edición y la búsqueda febril de modos hasta entonces poco conocidos para aportar información.

Investigative Journalism in the Arab World is the first book to date that looks into the state and role of investigate journalism in the Arab world before, during, and after the protests of the 'Arab Spring'. The fact that the Arab Spring is still happening in parts of the Arab world, such as Syria at the time of writing this book, means that this topic is not only timely but also one that could be ongoing. The necessity of this book lies in the vital role the media could potentially play in informing and empowering society, in order for them to assist in opening up the communicative space in a region where this has previously been taboo. This book, therefore, explores how investigative journalism training and practice can be used to develop and promote deliberative social and political systems in Arab countries.

This book examines the history, theory and journalistic practice of profile writing. Profiles, and the practice of writing them, are of increasing interest to scholars of journalism because conflicts between the interviewer and the subject exemplify the changing nature of journalism itself. While the subject, often through the medium of their press representative, struggles to retain control of the interview space, the journalist seeks to subvert it. This interesting and multi-layered interaction, however, has rarely been subject to critical scrutiny, partly because profiles have traditionally been regarded as public relations exercises or as ‘soft’ journalism. However, chapters in this volume reveal not only that profiling has, historically, taken many different forms, but that the idea of the interview as a contested space has applications beyond the subject of celebrated individuals. The volume looks at the profile’s historical beginnings, at the contemporary manufacture of celebrity versus the ‘ordinary’, at profiling communities, countries and movements, at profiling the destitute, at sporting personalities and finally at profiling and trauma.

Media Control: News as an Institution of Power and Social Control challenges traditional (and even some radical) perceptions of how the news works. While it's clear that journalists don't operate objectively – reporters don't just cover news, but they make it – Media Control goes a step further by arguing that the cultural institution of news approaches and presents everyday information from particular and dominant cultural positions that benefit the power elite. From analysing how the press operate as police agents by conducting surveillance and instituting social order through its coverage of crime and police action to bolstering private business and neoliberal principles by covering the news through notions of boosterism, Media Control presents the news through a cultural lens. Robert E. Gutsche, Jr. introduces or advances readers' applications of critical race theory and cultural studies scholarship to explore cultural meanings within news coverage of police action, the criminal justice system, and embedding into the news democratic values that are later used by the power elite to oppress and repress portions of the citizenry. Media Control helps the reader explicate how the power elite use the press and the veil of the Fourth Estate to further white ideologies and American Imperialism.

Ta Kung Pao is one of the most influential newspapers in modern China. The inaugural issue was published in Tianjing in 1912, and it was subsequently published in Shanghai, Hankou, Hong Kong, Guiling and Chongqing, followed by Hong Kong and Macao after 1949. The last mainland China issue of TKP was published in 1966. TKP has witnessed some of the key events in the creation of modern day China, including the Revolution of 1911 and the founding of the new republic. It was then designated by the Propaganda Department of the Central Committee of the CPC as the government's official newspaper covering all international, political and economic news. Now available outside of China for the very first time, this insightful book is a detailed study of the evolution of the media in China, as seen through the history and the pages of TKP. It's a faithful documentation of China's political and economic modernisation. Rong Xinchun discloses for the very first time the stories behind the stories, and the paper's true status and function within China's foreign relations strategies. The coverage includes the author's dissections of the key articles, commentaries and editorials. These documents are important historical material for anybody studying the development of modern day China.
