Journalists were challenged to report on an outbreak of pressing health-related information, complicated by malinformation erupting in a time of enhanced public demand for reliable facts. This study uses in-depth interviews with journalists at leading news outlets- both public service and commercial, in Italy, Spain, and Bulgaria (N = 24) to examine how they responded to misinformation and disinformation arising in the initial months of the pandemic. Using the frameworks of journalistic epistemology and the hierarchy-of-influences model, we explored the norms, routines, and practices guiding journalists’ truth claims as well as the individual, routine, organizational, and social-systems influences shaping their decision-making. We found three common narratives of conspiracy theories consistent across different media systems: “big state” concerns, evident in people questioning the very existence of the coronavirus as a pretense for globally enforced state supervision on individual freedoms; “big pharma,” or people blaming the lack of a cure for COVID-19 on pharmaceutical companies pushing for vaccinations; and “big fear” attitude - falsehoods about vaccines potentially causing more harm than good, including changing people’s DNA. We also discuss three common strategies journalists used to respond to COVID-misinformation: deflecting, countering and false equivalency approach.","PeriodicalId":47909,"journal":{"name":"Journalism Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48311635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study fi lls this research gap by providing a comparative analysis of the communication strategies of Chinese and Russian state-sponsored international broadcasters. By examining CGTN ’ s coverage of the South China Sea arbitration and RT ’ s coverage of the Ukraine crisis in 2014, we fi nd that the Chinese international broadcaster preferred o ffi cial Chinese sources and a peace frame during a time of con fl ict, whereas its Russian counterpart tended to engage with Western countercultural speakers and present con fl ict frames. We further interpret the two media ’ s di ff erent usage of sources and frames in the light of the media ’ s organizational culture and the sponsoring states ’ national identities. The research advances the scholarship on the increasingly intensive information war between the East and the West through the way international broadcasters cover international con fl icts. It enriches our understanding of the cultural and national dynamics underpinning the non-Western emerging countries ’ approaches of international communication.","PeriodicalId":47909,"journal":{"name":"Journalism Practice","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2022-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44484569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In any democratic society, circumstances like this should not be marginalized because news cannot be perceived merely as commodity for lucid public discourse, but as the public construction of exact images of society. This implies that one of the central problems to address when scrutinizing the contribution of the news media in community-building is its relationship to cultural diversity. Although representation and visibility of minorities in mass media, reflects just one of several factors related with the standing of minority groups in society, its influence should not be underestimated. Both theory and empirical research on media discourse, suggests that stereotypes arise from and are maintained via interaction with the messages offered in mass media fare. Journalists and media professionals, in many parts of the world, replicates part of the everyday biased practices against members of marginalized communities, whether in pejorative, offensive and abusive texts or speeches, or by way of other strategies employed for marginalization and barring from media discourses. Often, minority members are depicted through a negative lens by the news media and most usually as a homogenous group rather than as individuals. In addition, they are scarcely visible in news media, either through exclusion from majority establishment or through self-invisibility practices. In contrast, the news media also produce discourses that attempt to identify the difficulties regarding discrimination and social exclusion of members of marginalized communities, and they struggle to fight for equal human rights. In any case, the news media have a deep effect on their audiences and should be prudently considered in matters of representation and visibility of minorities. “Media discourses and Marginalized Communities in Multicultural Societies” is Journalism Practice’s special edition with a purpose to present studies offering insights into the news media’s role in jeopardizing the representation of minority/or marginalized groups, as well as to address their potential role to combat discrimination against members of marginalized groups such as minority racial and ethnic communities, asylum seekers, migrants, sex workers, LGBT persons, and rape victims.
