Research in media diplomacy often concluded that media took a pro-government stance in covering foreign affairs. This study tested this finding by content analysing the coverage of the Hong Kong 1997 issue by the New York Times, the Times of Britain and the People's Daily of China. The data indicated that the two western newspapers departed significantly from their governments’ respective positions on the issue, while the People's Daily has followed Beijing's stance on the issue all along. The result challenged the viewpoint of ‘media as governments’ cheerleaders’. A more dynamic approach to media diplomacy research is suggested.

Editing Process

The New York Times “streamlined” its editing process in 2017 and reduced the editing staff by nearly half. Through content analysis on corrections (N = 1,149), this research examines the effects of these cuts. Analysis revealed the Times published more corrections before the changes, but that corrections appeared more quickly after the original error occurred and there were more corrections for content in the A section following the staffing cuts. The A section includes national and international news and thus often contains political content, which is rife for heightened scrutiny in an age of media distrust. Practical and theoretical implications are discussed.

. . . It takes about 850 acres of Canadian timber to print one Sunday's New York Times. . . . The New York Times sells for 50¢ (1972) and contains more paper and typography than an unillustrated novel selling for $7.95. While the Times carries about 500 photographs and drawings in its Sunday edition and a novel does not, book-binding costs average 22¢ per book. It costs the city of New York nearly 10¢ per copy each week to clean up discarded copies of the Sunday New York Times.

ABSTRACTPhotography is one of the singular indicators of digital journalism. Among its exponents (text, photography, video, sound or graphics), photography metamorphoses into the virtual environment. Through an empirical analysis, we compare the reference newspapers from four countries of global relevance: Germany, USA, Japan and the UK. The reference digital versions of the most read newspapers in these countries are Spiegel Online, The New York Times, The Japan Times, and The Times. The items analyzed in this work are all the text units published at the home page, including the number of existing photographs in total content units and the number of different types of pictures, classified in ten different parameters: photo-news, illustrative, new, resource, black and white, color, large format, small format, edited, unedited. This work confirms that photojournalism is losing its relevance at the multimedia area and that photography gives way to the purely illustrative side; photography is an element in relation to the present; black and white photography remains for documentary reasons only; the large format photography is the only with great power in news media; and editing is not as usual activity in journalism as everybody think about.RESUMENLa fotografía es uno de los indicadores singulares del periodismo digital. Entre sus exponentes (texto, fotografía, vídeo, sonido o infografía), el fotográfico se metamorfosea en en el entorno virtual. Se presenta un análisis empírico compa-rativo entre los diarios de cuatro países de relevancia a escala global: Alemania, Estados Unidos, Japón y Reino Unido, a través de las versiones digitales de referencia de los diarios más leídos en estos países: Spiegel Online, The New York Times, The Japan Times y The Times. Los ítems analizados son las unidades texto publicadas en la home page, el número de foto-grafías existentes en el total de las unidades del contenido y el número de los diferentes tipos de fotografías, clasificadas según diez parámetros diferentes: foto-noticias, ilustrativas, nuevas, de recurso, blanco y negro, en color, gran formato, pequeño formato, editadas y sin editar. Se concluye que el fotoperiodismo tiene cada vez menos relevancia en el ámbito multimedia y deja paso a la fotografía puramente ilustrativa.

This chapter examines Jerold S. Auerbach's Print to Fit (2019). In this book, Auerbach charges that the New York Times consistently slanted its treatment of Israel in ways that discredited its struggle for survival and instead sympathized with the enemies of Zionism. Having assiduously combed through close to a century of articles, editorials, and op-ed pieces, Auerbach has discovered, especially in recent decades, a “preoccupation with Palestinian victimization — even when Israelis were the victims.” Print to Fit is especially harsh in its treatment of two of the Times' stars, the late Anthony Lewis and Thomas L. Friedman for having so often conveyed their own disenchantment with what they held to be the moral and political failings of Israel — in particular, the extension of Jewish settlements into the West Bank. Written from the political periphery of American Jewish life, Print to Fit risks overstating its case by simplifying it.
