However, a survey of Australian journalists shows them to be reflective upon their practice of the ‘death knock’, in which they seek to interview the family of someone who has died in newsworthy circumstances. This article reflects on findings of Watson’s 2021 survey of 100 journalists’ death knock practice. Through qualitative responses, analysed through the lens of Donald Schon’s ‘reflective practitioner’, journalists demonstrate their capacity for reflection-in-action and reflection-on-action in their death knock practice. While journalists refine their practices through reflection, their professional tasks remain greatly influenced by newsroom pressures. Journalists’ tacit negotiation of pressures can be understood as Bourdieusian habitus. Through Bourdieu’s conception of constituent and constitutive ‘feel for the game’, we expose a paradox: no matter what clout a journalist develops, they remain constrained by newsroom culture. In the face of this paradox, we follow the call from survey participants for a holistic approach to education and support.","PeriodicalId":125587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Journalism & Media Studies","volume":"107 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140422375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

So, what happens when they collaborate with a common goal? What are their actual similarities and differences? Can they collaborate in order to strengthen each other? How does this collaboration relate to the scientific discussion about public space and place, participatory journalism and civic engagement? These are some of the questions explored in this article. Our research draws empirically on semi-structured interviews with Swedish journalists and librarians in an unusual project with the aim to explore how new forms of collaboration between libraries and local newspapers could strengthen the information and media literacy leading up to the general elections in September 2022. The collaboration resulted in an increased awareness about the importance of place, as local media companies discovered how important place is for connecting with their readers. Furthermore, we draw the conclusion that both local media companies and public libraries could be more active when creating an arena for democratic discussions since there is great potential for more collaboration in the future. Even though they face different conditions, Swedish media could continue to explore this particular road to increased relevance in order to enhance civic engagement.","PeriodicalId":125587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Journalism & Media Studies","volume":"38 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140447729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Malaysia provides a unique context to study the reporting of mental disorders because the concept of mental health is greatly influenced by the multi-ethnic, multi-religious and multi-cultural beliefs of the people in the country. Significantly, media contribute to the framing of mental health problems, with various aspects of the public health issue as well as the stakeholders being depicted differently in the coverage. The current study employed a qualitative content analysis to examine the coverage of mental disorders by Malaysian legacy and online-only newspapers. It was found that the newspapers coverage on mental illnesses could be influenced by their ethnic, cultural or ownership background. The findings also showed that the newspapers reported mental disorders with different prominence and news sources. Mental disorders were most commonly associated with the problems of stress and suicide. Additionally, depression and anxiety were the most frequently reported mental disorders. The individual and societal levels of causal attribution and treatment for mental health conditions were reported, while care/harm was the leading moral evaluation. The practical implications of the findings were discussed with regard to the role of media in promoting mental health literacy, destigmatization and prevention.","PeriodicalId":125587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Journalism & Media Studies","volume":"118 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140449155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article examined the effectiveness of Sengerema community radio in addressing GBV within Tanzania. The research specifically investigates the level of community engagement in radio-based dialogues regarding GBV. Employing a mixed-methods approach and descriptive research design, data was gathered from a sample of 204 community members surveyed across five wards of the Sengerema District. Additionally, interviews and focus group discussions were conducted with radio programme producers and editors. The findings reveal that only 40 per cent of community members actively participate in radio programmes focused on GBV, with men displaying higher levels of engagement compared to women. While the radio has contributed to positive shifts in attitudes towards GBV, its capacity to expose and effectively address this issue through programming remains limited. The study identifies several challenges faced by the radio station in its endeavours to tackle GBV, including financial constraints, inadequate support from politicians and local government leaders, deeply entrenched cultural practices, and unfavourable programme scheduling. To enhance the radio’s effectiveness in addressing GBV, the study recommends increasing the number of programmes dedicated to this issue, involving local government leaders in broadcasting plans and scheduling programmes at times when they are accessible to a larger portion of the community.","PeriodicalId":125587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Journalism & Media Studies","volume":"14 16","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139803756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
