style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Since the
publication of Roger Fowler's seminal text, the study of the language of
journalism has increased dramatically. The form, function and politics of the
language of journalism has attracted scholars from a wide range of academic
disciplines, including linguistics, discourse studies, media studies, sociology
and others. In too many of these treatments, however, the language of journalism
has been reduced to a textual accounting exercise; another object of study
for the 'linguistic turn' in the social sciences. <BR><BR>Whilst issues relating
to linguistic representation are undoubtedly important, this special issue of <I
style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">Journalism Studies</I> is founded on the
assumption that such observations need to be contextualised by an awareness of
other moments on the circuit of mass communications: production, consumption,
regulation and identities. A thorough understanding of the language of
journalism is only possible through attending to the specificities of each of
these moments and their relations to each other. How, for example, do the
production practices of specific organisations affect the language of reporting?
What are the relationships between linguistic content and the ways that
journalism is variously consumed, interpreted and understood? How is the
language of journalism affected by, and related to, statutory and industry
enforced regulations? <BR><BR>Journalism Studies invites submissions that
critically examine journalistic language across the full circuit of mass
communications. We are particularly interested in original empirical research,
and especially in articles that examine theoretical/methodological issues whilst
engaging with professional practice and experience.<BR><BR>Possible topics
include, but are not limited to, the language of journalism and <BR
