Tendencies of international television journalism – regionalization or globalization?
Created in 2007, the Research Group on International News at the Global Village is chaired by Professor Jacques Alkalai Wainberg. The group’s main project, launched in 2008, is part of a 17-country pool that addresses international television journalism. To collect data on the international flow of news, each group recorded the main news programs aired by a public and a private station on a single day; the Jornal da Cultura and Jornal Nacional were selected in Brazil. This material was used to create a database of international news codified in a similar manner (e.g., subject, individuals and elements appearing in the news).
The second stage included receiver surveys to investigate what people do with the news. In Brazil, 500 individuals were interviewed by the Brazilian Institute of Public Opinion and Statistics (IBOPE). In the third stage, the researchers interviewed the editors-in-chief of the TV news programs and entered this information in a database. Subsequently, 17 researchers allocated to thematic groups wrote a book reporting the results obtained, which will be published in English in the USA.
That study is one of the widest-scoped projects currently conducted in the field of international journalism. It comprises researchers from countries including the USA, Egypt, China, Taiwan, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Korea, Chile, Poland, Portugal, and Canada; these researchers meet periodically in a different section of the world. The most remarkable of the final results is that, as a whole, the TV news programs are strongly related to their surroundings. The interest in the world is markedly restricted (a patent characteristic in, e.g., Taiwan), whereas the international information is difficult to process but is approached in a quick and superficial manner. The interest increases when a national actor is involved. In Brazil, the news on Haiti became more frequent and wider-scoped after Brazilian troops were deployed to Haiti.
