Abstract:

The news we see daily is selected from among alternatives by journalists.
'Argumentation in the Newsroom' uses ethnographic data from Swiss television
and print newsrooms to shed light on how journalists make decisions regarding
the selection and presentation of news items in their daily professional
practice. The evidence illustrates that, contrary to the standard view,
journalistic decisions are not limited to the influence of standardized
production patterns, instinct, or editors’ orders. Rather, in their attempt to
produce the best news possible, journalists carefully ponder and discuss their
choices, utilizing full-fledged critical discussions at all stages of the
newsmaking process. By employing the pragma-dialectical model of a critical
discussion in conjunction with the Argumentum Model of Topics, this study
provides a detailed reconstruction of how journalists make use of
argumentative reasoning, basing their decisions on a complex set of material
premises and on recurrent procedural premises.
