Journalismus

Vorverurteilungen gehören zum Medienalltag. Nicht nur der immer wieder zitierte "böse" Boulevard, auch so genannte "seriöse" Blätter, Rundfunk- und Fernsehanstalten halten es mit Persönlichkeitsrechten und dem Schutz der Privatsphäre nicht immer so genau. Besonders soziale Medien (von X bis TikTok) verbreiten Fake News und sorgen für irritierende Falschmeldungen, die sich in Windeseile verbreiten. Etwa durch Internet-Trolle. Presserat und Pressekodex entpuppen sich als zahnlose Feigenblätter für eine angeblich funktionierende Pressefreiheit. Das Werk soll zeigen, dass durch Medienkampagnen und "alternative Fakten" nicht nur an Einzelpersonen Rufmord verübt wird, sondern auch an Gruppen und Staaten. Medienunternehmen opfern die Medienethik auf dem Altar der Leser-, User- und Einschaltquoten. Die Schlagzeile als Maß aller Dinge? Wer einmal an den öffentlichen Pranger gestellt wird, gilt selbst nach einem Freispruch keinesfalls als "unschuldig". Einsparungen im Pressewesen führen zu mangelhaften Recherchen und Verschmelzungen von PR und Berichten. Der Autor war jahrzehntelang Chefreporter. Im zweiten Teil berichtet er über kuriose Erlebnisse - vom Interview mit dem Heiligen Vater über Diktator Gaddafi bis zum Serienkiller. Vom Krokodil auf der Prosektur bis zum "James-Bond"-Einsatz. Und über hautnahe Reportagen als "Kärntner Wallraff".

Now, in the twilight of my writing career, but still ambitious, I decided that writing a third book following "Blind Journey: A Journalist's Memoirs" and its sequel, "Insomnia: Two Wives, Childhood Memories and Crazy Dreams" would simply be too much work. Wow! That word, work, suddenly reminded me of the time I was among a theater-full of struggling members of the Writers Guild attending a movie preview. The scene was an exchange between two old friends who hadn't seen each other for some time. "It's so good to see you, Jane," one said. "Where are you working these days, or are you still writing?"The dark theater exploded in bursts of laughter.So what's this got to do with "Nostalgia: Stars of Yesteryear?"After ten years of covering sports at the Times, I transferred to the Calendar section as a copy editor and freelanced writing features about former superstars in the twilight of their careers. Robert Hilburn, the Times' former rock music critic and author of his riveting book about the life of "Johnny Cash,'' soon realized the "old-timers'' deserved space in the section along with rock stars. Hilburn dubbed me the "Nostalgia Editor."My filing cabinet is filled with features about superstars of yesteryear published long before this era of tattoos, weird hairdos and the universal acceptance of the adjectives cool and awesome. Among the first folders I opened was an in-depth article about Dick Contino, a somewhat forgotten accordionist whose thriving career went into hibernation when he deserted the army after being drafted. Necessarily trimmed, but virtually unedited, Contino's story plus those of Cassius Clay/Muhimmad Ali, Sammy Davis Jr., Rosemary Clooney, the Andrews Sisters and scores of others make up untouched chapters in "Nostalgia."They span decades. Turn the page to stroll down memory lane. It may spark many of your memories.

El nuevo libro de Rosa Montero, Premio Nacional de las Letras EspañolasLa realidad convertida en la mejor literatura'Por la creación de un universo personal, cuya temática refleja sus compromisos vitales y existenciales, que ha sido calificado como la ética de la esperanza'.Jurado del Premio Nacional de las Letras Españolas'Una cree entrever por un momento, como bajo el latigazo de un relámpago, el trasfondo de lo real'.La matanza de los abogados de Atocha, el intento de golpe de Estado, las vísperas del éxodo en Riaño, la gira del papa por España, la de Miguel Ríos con su exitosísimo Rock and Ríos, el juicio por la desaparición del Nani, los estragos de la droga, los del terrorismo... En la década de los ochenta, España vivió una época apasionante: la Transición. Como muestra este libro, los años del mayor intento colectivo de democratización y modernización del país fueron turbulentos, caleidoscópicos, llenos de violencia y de esperanza al mismo tiempo.Cuentos verdaderos reúne las crónicas y los reportajes que Rosa Montero, una de las voces más importantes del periodismo y la literatura de las últimas décadas, publicó en El País durante el periodo 1978-1988. Escritos la mayoría de ellos con las técnicas de la mejor ficción y alejada ya en el tiempo la urgencia por contar la actualidad, se leen hoy como si fueran relatos. Es la literatura abriéndose paso impetuosamente.La autora afirma en el prólogo: 'Estas crónicas nos trasladan a territorios remotos. Hay otros mundos, pero están en éste, como decía Éluard. En ocasiones resultan tan insólitas, tan alucinantes, que me siento un poco como esas presentadoras de las antiguas ferias que se desgañitaban anunciando los gabinetes de curiosidades: el Hombre Serpiente, la Mujer Barbuda... Aquí estoy, en efecto, plantada ante la puerta. Y simplemente digo: pasen y vean'.La crítica ha dicho:'Uno de los máximos exponentes de la creación literaria y una de las más destacadas mujeres creadoras de la cultura hispana'.Jurado del Premio Ciudad de Alcalá de las Artes y las Letras'Su prosa tensa y directa rehúye el desplante y la pretensión'.Mario Vargas Llosa'No hay mejor escritora en castellano que Rosa Montero'.Juan Gomez-Jurado'Ama el riesgo [...] y lo arriesga todo para que volvamos a creer en las relaciones entre realidad y lenguaje, en el poder de las palabras'.Enrique Vila-Matas'Maneja el lenguaje como nadie'.Javier Lahoz, El Periódico'Escribe conel punto casi exacto de acercamiento, con sinceridad y ardor pero sin concesiones fáciles'.Miguel Dalmau, La Vanguardia'Quedarse hasta las tantas de la mañana es algo que ocurre con los libros de Rosa Montero'.Pilar Sanabria, Más de Uno (Onda Cero)

This book offers a comparative study of the political debate on the Euro crisis in the press. In the tradition of Critical Discourse Analysis, it investigates the ways in which discourse produces and reproduces social domination, and demystifies the hegemony of specific discourses. Combining quantitative content-based and qualitative text-based analyses, the book examines the discursive constructions of the crisis in a selection of broadsheet newspapers in Germany, Poland, and the UK, and discloses their ideological foundations. The analysis of the representations of the crisis, social actors and their agency, and legitimating strategies, including the use of metaphors, demonstrates how neoliberalism determined the hegemonic discourse on the Euro crisis. It resulted in ideologically biased discursive constructions that created and legitimised an image of non-agentic social change. The book will appeal to an international audience of discourse and media studies. It will be of interest to university teachers, graduate and undergraduate students and researchers of international and comparative media studies, political communication, linguistics, and politics.

In this book Zimbabwe: The Blame Game we start the process of talking by finding who is to blame for our political and economic problems and suggesting how to solve them. We need to face each other with an open mind, honest engagement, with real love that doesn't just run along the path to judging, with forgiveness, with real reconciliation. For us to do that we need to start to talk to each other, but this collection goes further than Zimbabwe, than encouraging talking. It still tackles Zimbabwe, even as it tackles life in exile, especially for those Zimbabweans who left for South Africa; what they had to deal with, especially the xenophobia of year 2008. There are also two particular pieces that deals with South Africa, what I think is happening in South Africa, where I think South Africa is heading towards. It is the Zimbabweanisation of issues in South Africa that I am trying to explore, above everything else. Tendai Rinos Mwanaka is a Zimbabwean publisher, editor, mentor, thinker, literary artist, visual artist and musical artist with 23 individual books and 25 edited books, 1 music album and several songs, and tens of paintings and artworks curated, published, produced, exhibited and published in at least 35 countries worldwide.

Zimbabwe: The Urgency of Now is a collection of creative nonfiction pieces. It is a follow-up to Zimbabwe: The Blame Game. With Zimbabwe: The Urgency of Now, I focused on the Zimbabwe political, economic and social landscape post the negotiations of the government of national unity (6th Year of Zim Talks), the GNU years (GNU Entity and Power-sharing Deal Limitations), the 2013 July elections (2013 Elections Preparedness), and post-2013 elections (Post-election Zimbabwe's Political, Economic and Social Landscape). I have tried to free myself from the fetters of academic or journalistic type of nonfiction writing and have experimented with the creative nonfiction type of writing, where I look at the issues in a creatively focused, laidback, imaginative, simple language, with the story-telling genre, diary, memoirs, playwriting and poetic genre being mixed with nonfiction. Tendai Rinos Mwanaka is a Zimbabwean publisher, editor, mentor, thinker, literary artist, visual artist and musical artist with 23 individual books and 25 edited books, one music album and several songs, and tens of paintings and artworks curated, published, produced, exhibited and published in at least 35 countries worldwide.
