Samuel Johnson, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Hazlitt and Charles Dickens all worked as parliamentary reporters, but their experiences in the press gallery have not received much scrutiny. Nikki ...Hessell's study is the first work to consider all four of these canonical writers as gallery reporters, providing a detailed picture of this intriguing episode in their careers. Hessell challenges preconceived notions about the role that emergent literary genius played in their success as reporters, arguing instead that they were consummate gallery professionals who adapted themselves to the journalistic standards of their day. That professional background fed in to their creative work in unexpected ways. By drawing on a wealth of evidence in letters, diaries and the press, this study provides fresh insights into the ways in which four great writers learnt the craft of journalism and brought those lessons to bear on their career as literary authors.

Entre violencia y cuestionamientos a su trabajo, los periodistas mexicanos producen noticias diariamente. No siempre atendemos como lo hacen o sus impresiones al respecto, cuando hacerlo enriqueceria ...la comprension de su profesion y de sus vinculos con otros actores. Partiendo de 42 entrevistas en profundidad a periodistas de la Ciudad de Mexico, este articulo analiza la manera en que perciben su relacion con el poder politico. Desde el enfoque de la Teoria Fundamentada, los hallazgos se dividen en cinco rubros: "esperanza" de mejores condiciones laborales bajo este gobierno; cambios en rutinas derivados de politicas de esta administracion; restricciones, como falta de transparencia y censura; dependencia de publicidad oficial que genera incertidumbre ante la necesidad de recursos, y malestar por criticas que reciben del gobierno.

Palabras clave: Relacion prensa-poder; periodistas de la Ciudad de Mexico; entrevistas en profundidad; control politico Between violence and questions about their work, Mexican journalists produce news daily. We don't always pay attention to how they do it or their impressions of it when doing so would enrich our understanding of their profession. Based on 42 in-depth interviews with journalists from Mexico City, this article analyzes how they perceive their relationship with political power. From the Grounded Theory approach, the findings indicate that this link is associated with five items: "hope" for better working conditions under this government; changes in routines derived from this administration's policies; restrictions, such as lack of transparency and censorship; dependence on official advertising that generates uncertainty regarding the need for resources, and discomfort due to the criticism they receive from the government. Results that arise from negotiations with power and that contribute to the growing literature about journalistic work in the current Mexican sociopolitical context.

This study investigates how Google is shaping journalism innovation, particularly in business models, through an analysis of one of its global funding competitions, the Innovation Challenge. It adds ...to an understanding of the impact of platforms on journalism through a descriptive analysis of 354 projects funded between 2018 and 2022 in 78 countries and five regions. Grant recipients were largely for-profit journalism organizations, with a significant US focus. Projects related to audience engagement, business models and distribution dominated the published winning innovation proposals, accounting for 72.6% of funded projects. The three areas were closely connected as they were mostly related to plans to increase reader revenue. Findings suggest that the Innovation Challenge validates reader revenue as the key innovation in business models through a funding competition aligned with Google's global industry and government relations interests. The orientation is problematic as it narrows journalism innovation to a financial issue, with audiences as the answer, even though people are largely unwilling to pay for news and journalism is considered a public good rather than simply a commercial product.
