Journalism as a Human Right: The Cultural Approach to Journalism (2008)

Abstract
What are the implications for journalism (and journalism education) when everyone in a democracy not only has the right to be informed and to hold opinions but also to publish them, and to publish them as journalism? This chapter pursues that question as a way of showing how cultural studies' longstanding interest in the consumption and social impact of news poses some challenging questions for the model of journalism founded on professional practice and industrial organization.
