Newsworthiness
Professor Michael Brockley , 2015

Pre-Sessional Lecture 2015. What makes news? Who makes news? The process by which something or someone becomes news is far from transparent. Fifty years ago Galtung and Ruge attempted to codify what constituted news by analysing a particular part of the finished product. Do their conclusions apply to all forms of news – everywhere across all time? Can we extrapolate from their work how the news manufacturing process occurs? Do users make the news as much as the media do? What does newsworthiness look like 50 years after the Galtung and Ruge study? We will explore these and other issues using contemporary examples.
