Multicultural Journalism - Critical Reflexivity in News Practice (Hardcover)

Journalism's increasingly shrinking audiences and profits fuel enormous pressure on mainstream media, which many contend has resulted in lower quality, more superficial and less relevant news. In this book, author Margaret Thompson introduces a more collaborative and reflexive way of producing news that incorporates concepts of cultural identity and cultural positioning of both journalists and sources. Written for multicultural journalism courses, this text uses a critical perspective to explore in-depth various issues of multicultural media as applied to the craft, treating the act of multicultural reporting as a separate type of journalism practice. While other books focus on news and multicultural communities, Thompson addresses issues of power and privilege amongst journalists and marginalized groups, as well as the implications of these challenges for the power dynamics of journalists and their work, particularly as they relate to race and gender.
