2007-2008 was the annus horribilis for the British media. All
terrestrial broadcasters were found to have cheated their audiences
through a variety of scams: Premium Rate Calling, fake competitions
with results changed to suit the producers -- and more. As a
result, public trust in the media dipped. Beyond Trust examines
this crucial 'trust' issue with lively, opinionated and
controversial contributions from a wide variety of experienced and
distinguished media practitioners. It places the contemporary
controversy in a historical context, examines the implications for
local newspapers -- and explores the role media education can play
in restoring trust. In addition: / Anthony Arblaster argues the
case for scepticism / Dorothy Byrne claims: 'TV journalism is so
fair it makes Andy Pandy look dodgy' / Charlie Beckett asks: 'Can
we trust the internet?' THE EDITORS John Mair is a senior lecturer
in journalism at Coventry University, a former producer and
director for BBC, ITV and Channel Four. Richard Lance Keeble is
professor of journalism at the University of Lincoln and joint
editor of Ethical Space.
