Journalism’s independence from social and political forces has again come into question as seen with the cosy relationship between journalism and the financial and property sectors; while recently both newspapers and broadcasters are increasingly coming under accusations of bias in their reportage of social and political events.
This conference will bring together journalists, media workers and media theorists to discuss the role of journalism in the 21st century, conditions for journalists in the contemporary newsroom and prospects for the future of the media industry….

On the other hand there’s no such thing as a journalist with an agenda. No sir.
Textbook example: Henry Silke’s framing of what the conference is about.
how many of said journalists have easy to find PGP?
*tumbleweed*
alright, not so serious after all
What do you mean by PGP?
Is it e-mail encryption?
yeah but it could also be any other method of easily contacting them in a hard to trace manner.
like if you are serious about journalism being free from political forces and speaking truth to power and all that jazz then you must have a way for whistleblowers to securely contact you
all these guys are phonies without a clue
Ok, thank you joe.
Anyone you’d recommend?
Bryan Dobson is a journalist? Thought he just read an autocue and got a six-figure sum for doing so.
And has a company that advises TDs in media training.
What’s ‘The Fourth Estate’? (I’m lazy, in one sentence please’
Journalists.
“O’Doherty”? Really? No mention on the poster. Will Michael O’Doherty of VIP really drive his burnt orange Lamborghini all the way to Limerick?
The orange might get more burnter..
That’s a nice gathering of SJWs.
‘Social Justice Warrior’ is a handy old term. You should use it more often. It let’s people know what you think.
No sight of Stephen Rea, will he have moved to RTE by then
