Therefore, it is no surprise that antipodean academics want trauma-informed education for their journalism students. This study presents the Australian-New Zealand results of a 2021 survey exploring educators’ attitudes toward embedding trauma literacy into journalism curriculum. It mirrors a survey from the UK-based Journalism Education and Trauma Research Group. The Australian-New Zealand results confirm that educators want more training to effectively embed trauma-informed reporting into their curricula. The discussion notes the availability of local, research-based teaching materials, and identifies barriers to implementation.","PeriodicalId":37361,"journal":{"name":"Journalism and Mass Communication Educator","volume":"17 1","pages":"112 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74559346","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}

The objective of the research was to recount their lived experiences. The theme of safety of journalists comprised psychological and physical safety of the newspeople, and there were various ways in which the psychological and individual safety of the journalists covering terrorism and related events was at risk. The psychological safety included traumatic events leading to sleeplessness and nightmares, loss of memory, and some journalists resorting to alcohol abuse in a bid to cope with the traumatic experiences. These physical safety concerns for some journalists included threats of death by fanatical religious groups, while other participants said that they were threatened with death because of their coverage of terrorism and related activities in Kenya.","PeriodicalId":37361,"journal":{"name":"Journalism and Mass Communication Educator","volume":"1 1","pages":"251 - 266"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83757952","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}

We confirm that student journalists, like working reporters, are traumatized by professional norms, high demands, poor boundaries, safety concerns, and ethical-professional responsibilities. Participants coped through emotional distancing, saving face, and relying on peers. We offer interventions based on student support needs and changing news values, including faculty affirmation, financial support, counselor support, diversity training, newsroom debriefings, emotional leadership, and reporting protocols.","PeriodicalId":37361,"journal":{"name":"Journalism and Mass Communication Educator","volume":"15 1","pages":"142 - 164"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79101030","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}

Lambert’s “Conclusion: Impact and Future” chapter might be viewed as a case of “imagine the past and remember the future” because the RTBF is still a work in progress. The Right to be Forgotten is an extraordinary book, since it’s an excellent resource for its scholarly and non-scholarly readers on the right to be forgotten in EU law. The author’s authoritative analysis of the RTBF creates enduring value. The book covers every real or imagined RTBF issue or topic pre– and post–Google Spain. It might justifiably be called a bible of the RTBF law. For journalism and mass communication educators and students, The Right to be Forgotten deserves a good read more as a supplemental text for advanced communication law class. Especially for those interested in the comparative approach freedom of expression vs. informational privacy as a global issue, the book should be the primary read. The RTBF is not recognized as such in American law. Nonetheless, as argued by Tulane law professor Amy Gajda in the “Right to Be Forgotten (Privacy in the Past)” chapter of her highly acclaimed 2022 book Seek and Hide (pp. 240-250). American journalists should not dismiss the RTBF as irrelevant. As a matter of professional journalism, the RTBF is being more widely accepted in American newsrooms directly influenced by the EU law—although not necessarily in exactly the way as it is recognized and enforced in Europe. Given that Google Spain and the RTBF are a global phenomenon, The Right to Be Forgotten is a necessary addition to the reading lists of not just JMC educators and practitioners. No matter how you may view the issue of censorship with regard to the RTBF, this much is clear: love the RTBF or hate it, you must understand it, and Lambert’s work is the direct route to that destination for JMC teachers and students.","PeriodicalId":37361,"journal":{"name":"Journalism and Mass Communication Educator","volume":"9 1","pages":"294 - 296"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74269329","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}

Semi-structured interviews with 18 Estonian journalists were conducted in 2021 from June to December. We divided journalists’ experiences into personal, professional, and organizational domains. One key observation is that journalists cannot avoid work-related hostility, even when off-duty. In addition, as one journalist receives hostility in a myriad of ways, there is a necessity for a multilevel approach when teaching about coping with or preventing unnecessary hostility from reaching journalists. Our mapping can be used when preparing students for occupational hazards or developing journalism curricula.","PeriodicalId":37361,"journal":{"name":"Journalism and Mass Communication Educator","volume":"100 1","pages":"199 - 213"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83340548","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}

Principles 1 and 2 assert that journalism is an essential democratic practice where the interests of journalists and citizens align to promote trust. A third relational principle, which the authors acknowledge departs most from familiar approaches, adds the role of “democracy capacity builder.” Case studies include soliciting user-generated content, such as “It’s a Southern Thing” at Alabama-based AL.com, and “dialog journalism” on important community matters, such as the journalist-moderated discussions organized by The Tennessean newspaper in Nashville and The Times Record News of Wichita Falls, Texas. Left unexplored is the risk that all this attention to lived experience will be deployed by self-serving residents at the expense of necessary public works. For example, a consideration not addressed is how a commitment to relationship-building with, say, NIMBY voters will advance democratic values of a fair and just society. A fourth relational principle urges transparency in gathering and presenting news. It also advises demoting the role of conflict as an element of newsworthiness. Case studies illustrating this principle highlight Milwaukee (Wisconsin) Neighborhood News Service, with its emphasis on “hyperlocal” reporting, and a voter guide based on listener-submitted questions and produced by KPCC radio in Pasadena, California. The fifth principle is centered on democracy’s interest in financially stable news organizations. Discussion of this principle includes the case study of a digital publishing project undertaken by students at West Virginia University; a concise history of print news industry economics; and an overview of the four quadrants of revenue possibilities. As Neil Brown, president of the Poynter Institute for Media Studies, observes in a foreword, the end of traditional news-industry business models has led to crucial interest in audience development that, in turn, deserves re-thinking. “What of deeper engagement,” he asks, “the kind that speaks to a purpose beyond a customer transaction?” The authors, all veteran journalist-scholars, have supplied a real-world answer: “We’re not advocating that journalists abandon all worthy types of journalism,” they explain. Instead they propose relational journalism as an “added dimension, [a] mindset that will inspire everything journalists do.”","PeriodicalId":37361,"journal":{"name":"Journalism and Mass Communication Educator","volume":"335 1","pages":"101 - 104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73142102","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}
