Important and stimulating conference about “Journalistic Reorientations” in Bergen

Mon, 21 Nov 2011 15:51:55 GMT

The Nordic Research Network in Journalism Studies had its fifth gathering on November 2-4, 2011, and this time in Bergen. The conference was a joint venture between the network and our local host, the Norwegian Research Council-funded project “Journalistic Reorientations – The Online Challenge to Journalistic Ontology”, led by Professor Martin Eide. The conference also included a master class for PhD students – a course co-sponsored by the Faculty of the Social Sciences at the University of Bergen. The conference topic was related to two important questions. In what ways is contemporary journalism as a societal institution and professional practice changing? What kinds of reorientations are taking place?

The online challenge to journalistic ontology" (Department of Information Science and Media Studies, University of Bergen).

Online Journalism and Volcano Clouds

Mon, 19 Apr 2010 13:24:25 GMT

The Nordic Research Network’s seminar in Oslo on April 15-16 became – at least in some ways – more dramatic than planned. The Iceland volcano Eyjafjallajokull began to erupt on Wednesday, and 10 a.m. on Thursday morning Gardermoen airport outside Oslo was closed. Luckily most of the participants came with earlier flights and at the opening of the seminar we just missed three colleagues, and two of them came to Oslo by train during the afternoon. Nearly forty media scholars, including a few guests outside the network, were present.
