They have also laboured impressively to gather and define useful examples of journalese !This book is a labour of love that reflects immense care and learning. It makes a helpful contribution to a fledgling field of academia and to uniting the cultures of news and journalism studies." Tim Luckhurst, University of Kent, UK This comprehensive glossary offers clear and insightful definitions of the most significant keywords in news and journalism studies. Ranging from 'above the fold' to 'zinger', and with over 400 terms in between, it covers words associated with newspapers, radio and television news, magazines, photojournalism and internet reporting. Other examples include 'agenda setting', 'libel', 'news values', 'objectivity,' 'scoop' and 'tabloidization'. Written by two of the field's leading scholars, it offers an informed perspective on the key terms. It considers a range of genres, including business, crime, environmental, fashion, lifestyle, investigative, science, sports and war journalism as well as looking at new alternatives such as 'Wikinews' and 'Twitter'. This lively and engaging treatment will provide students, researchers and journalists with a solid grounding in the fast-moving vocabulary of news and journalism studies.

Tracking assumptions about the use of photographs in religion, art, advertising, law, politics, and journalism, I argue that the easy transportability of the photograph and claims to its indexical force hide its role in blurring the realms that constitute popular experience. Such blurring takes place even when the experience involved might have real consequences for the body politic, creating a need to better consider how photographs function differently in the various contexts that put them to use

Si on lui reproche d'avoir écrit un article obscur, le journaliste brandit son typomètre. Dites à un professeur que son texte est «journalistique» il sera hors de lui. Le conflit ne date pas d'hier... La vraie différence entre les deux activités est une question de temps. Le journalisme d'aujourd'hui est l'histoire de demain (Manchester, 1962, p. x). S'il s'agit d'un savoir portant sur le passé, souvent c'est l'historien qui vient le premier à l'esprit. Mais le plus souvent, celui-ci est en compétition avec d'autres narrateurs, qui, tous, briguent le même but: s'imposer comme les porte-parole autorisés de l'histoire qu'ils racontent ; se poser comme gardiens de la mémoire. Cette compétition est particulièrement manifeste dans le cas des nouvelles versions de l'assassinat de John F. Kennedy. Jamais peut-être la rivalité entre les différents commentateurs n'a été plus virulente et plus acharnée que dans le cas de cet événement. En fait, les circonstances même de la mort de Kennedy-son importance, son imprévisibilité, les questions laissées en suspens, les hypothèses sujettes à contestation-tout cela a favorisé la multiplicité des commentaires, chacun cherchant à s'imposer comme détenteur de la vérité. Il s'agit ici de voir comment le rôle de commentateur autorisé s'est négocié au cours des vingt-sept ans écoulés depuis la mort de Kennedy et comment les divers récits de l'événement ont contribué à construire la crédibilité de certains observateurs. En se positionnant stratégiquement face au récit de l'assassinat, ils ont joué de leur récit dans des livres, des
