The study of news and news practice is rich in examinations of what
journalists owe to society. However, this book looks at what
journalists can expect from society: what roles ownership
structures, colleagues, governments and audiences should play so
journalists can do their jobs well - and safely. What Journalists
Are Owed draws on a variety of research perspectives - legal and
ethical analysis, surveys, interviews and content analysis - in
different national settings to look at how those relationships
among stakeholders are developing in a time of rapid and often
unsettling chance to the political and economic environments that
surround journalism. Journalism can be a risky business. This book
opens some discussions on those risks can be described and
mitigated. There's no shortage of writing about what journalists
owe society - but if society wants journalism done well, what does
it owe journalists in return? This volume opens a discussion on the
cultural, legal-system and professional agreements that societies
should provide so journalists can do their jobs in increasingly
hostile political environments. This book was originally published
as a special issue of Journalism Studies.
