Objectives
After reading this section, you will be able to:
· Discuss the interplay between technologies and the development of journalism.
· List the four roles of mass media.
· Discuss the development of a free press.
· Discuss methods used to pay for the collection and dissemination of news.
· Identify ethical challenges that may develop because of sources of funding.
· Identify strengths and weaknesses associated with media convergence.
Humans hunger for news. We want knowledge beyond what we can gather using our own
senses. We want narratives, facts, events, people, back stories and the ideas from beyond our
doors. We want to understand, and we want to escape our isolation. The mass media tries to
satisfy this hunger.
The work journalists produce is part of mass media. Mass media’s job is to inform, persuade,
entertain and transmit cultural values. Journalism openly and proudly does the first three—it
persuades, informs and entertains—and often, despite its efforts to be objective, it reflects and
transmits cultural values. Sometimes these roles of mass media conflict with each other.
“The Odyssey,” one of the oldest works in Western literature, is full of the hunger for news.
Twenty years after Odysseus sails for Troy, his wife and son long for news of him. But in Greece in
800 BCE, there are only two ways of getting news. You can stay at home and hope a traveler comes to
you with accurate reports, or you can travel forth to interview primary sources for yourself. Literacy
had not yet reached Greece.
The story of Odysseus represents the four sometimes competition functions of mass
communication: to inform, persuade, entertain and transmit culture. Penelope and Telemachus,
Odysseus’s wife and son, wanted accurate information about Odysseus’s whereabouts. Penelope
guarded herself against gossip and those who would exploit her. She asks the old beggar who claims
to have seen Odysseus (but is really her returning husband in disguise) to support his reports with
relevant details. She demands the beggar tell her “how he looked, the quality of his clothing and
some particular of his company.” Eyewitness reporting gains credibility from accurate detail, and
Penelope wanted only the truth.
But before returning home disguised as an old beggar, Odysseus had earlier been washed
ashore alone in Phaicia, where King Alcinous and his people want entertainment more than facts,
entertainment in harmony with their world view. Odysseus wants a ship to return home to Ithaca, so
he gives them the entertainment they want.
When the king introduces himself he says, “Cyclops ranked no nearer gods than we.”
Odysseus reads his audience well and crafts his account to please them. He gives them a good
story, complete with a Cyclops, seductive enchantresses, a journey to the afterlife, a six-headed
monster, cannibals, lotus flowers, a whirlpool and vengeful gods. He portrays himself as the
complete Greek hero, embodying Greek cultural values. He is resourceful, loyal, brave, boastful,
curious and an associate of the gods. His great ability as an entertainer—and a persuader—earn
him safe passage home to Ithaca.

Journalism: Publishing Across Media
A History of Journalism 1
People’s desire for hard news, facts on which they can make decisions, has long intertwined
with their desire for softer news, news designed to reinforce their beliefs, news of heroes, gossip and
even fictions that suit their existing prejudices.
As literacy spread, it helped bridge the gulf between the small world within the reach of
our senses, and the greater world. Literacy and its technologies—writing with pens, reeds, cow
hides, metal plates and stone or clay tablets—changed the way we got the news. A scribe could
mark a thin sheet of cow hide, metal or papyrus. A messenger carried it by boat, horse or on
foot, and many miles away, another person could read the same words. It must have seemed
miraculous. If the words were read aloud, they could be received by mass audiences, groups of
people gathered together.
This may not yet have been true journalism—the messages were more often official
pronouncements rather than unbiased and accurate reports—but journalism developed and changed
with technology. This was as true thousands of years ago as it is today.
