Between 1875 and 1899, Mars occupied a prominent and recurring position in newspaper reporting across Europe, North America and beyond. Although the scientific and cultural dimensions of this "Mars excitement" have been well studied in metropolitan contexts, far less attention has been paid to how planetary astronomy circulated through colonial press systems. This paper examines the Australian press as a case study in the global mediation of nineteenth-century astronomical knowledge. Drawing on a structured compilation of 1040 digitised newspaper articles accessed via the National Library of Australia, the study analyses patterns of first appearance, reprinting, attribution and temporal persistence in Australian Mars reporting. Mars-related news entered Australia primarily through international telegraphic networks and overseas syndication before circulating widely through metropolitan, regional and provincial newspapers. Distinguishing between novel reports and subsequent reprints reveals that apparent abundance often masked a small number of originating items that achieved extensive colonial reach. Attribution practices evolved over time, shifting from anonymous or institutional authority towards increasing reliance on named overseas figures such as Asaph Hall, William H. Pickering and, most notably, Percival Lowell. This shift reshaped both the form and longevity of Mars reporting, allowing interpretive and personality-driven material to persist independently of specific observational events. By emphasising circulation, attribution and temporal rhythm, this study situates Australian newspapers within international systems of scientific communication. Colonial journalism actively mediated astronomical knowledge rather than merely transmitting it, shaping how Mars became a durable object of public scientific attention in the late nineteenth century.

[Abridged] In the late nineteenth century, Mars emerged as one of the most intensively reported astronomical objects in the popular press, driven by favourable oppositions, improved telescopic capabilities and growing speculation regarding planetary habitability. I examine how Mars was interpreted in Australian newspapers between the 1870s and 1899, focusing on the ways in which astronomical knowledge was framed, contextualised and debated within a colonial media environment. Drawing on a large collection of digitised newspaper articles, I analyse how observational authority, instrumental credibility and individual expertise were harnessed in press reporting. The paper situates Australian Mars coverage within a global network of scientific communication dominated by metropolitan centres in Europe and North America, while highlighting the distinctive role played by southern-hemisphere visibility. Australian observatories and observers were frequently positioned as contributors of confirmatory observation rather than interpretive leadership, reinforcing a pattern of locally grounded but internationally oriented scientific engagement. The analysis traces a shift from early emphasis on disciplined observation and measurement to later periods characterised by contested interpretations, particularly surrounding the so-called Martian "canals" and the speculative claims advanced by personalities such as Percival Lowell in the USA. By examining how newspapers mediated between observational astronomy, engineering analogies and popular imagination, this study contributes to a broader understanding of how planetary science entered public discourse beyond metropolitan centres. In doing so, it underscores the active role of colonial newspapers in shaping scientific meaning and situates Australian Mars reporting within the wider history of nineteenth-century astronomical culture.

Об’єктом дослідження є цифрова трансформація у зовнішніх корпоративних комунікаціях – процес, що змінює способи взаємодії організацій зі стейкхолдерами та формування довіри в цифрову добу. Актуальність теми зумовлена тим, що цифрові інструменти відкривають нові канали взаємодії, але водночас вимагають переосмислення теоретичних основ, оцінки рівня цифрової зрілості та створення інтегрованих моделей для стратегічного управління комунікаціями, особливо в умовах швидких соціально-технологічних змін. Метою дослідження є синтез класичних і сучасних підходів у сфері комунікацій та розробка на основі отриманих висновків моделі, що дозволяє оцінювати цифрову зрілість і виявляти міждисциплінарні зв’язки трансформацій. Методи дослідження включають аналіз і синтез наукових джерел, порівняння класичних і новітніх підходів, а також моделювання та абстрагування для побудови концептуальних рамок. Основні висновки полягають у тому, що сформульовано дві моделі цифрової трансформації у зовнішніх комунікаціях. Перша – External Corporate Communication Maturity Model (ECCMM), п’ятирівнева модель цифрової зрілості, яка описує поступовий розвиток від базових до інноваційних практик. Друга – TOC-модель (Technical, Organizational, Communicational), що пояснює взаємодію технологічних, організаційних і комунікаційних чинників та пропонує набір індикаторів для подальших емпіричних досліджень. Запропоновані підходи створюють підґрунтя як для стандартизації наукових досліджень цифрової трансформації, так і для практичного оцінювання рівня цифрової зрілості корпоративних комунікацій у різних контекстах, зокрема в українському

This paper introduces AIJIM, the Artificial Intelligence Journalism Integration Model -- a novel framework for integrating real-time AI into environmental journalism. AIJIM combines Vision Transformer-based hazard detection, crowdsourced validation with 252 validators, and automated reporting within a scalable, modular architecture. A dual-layer explainability approach ensures ethical transparency through fast CAM-based visual overlays and optional LIME-based box-level interpretations. Validated in a 2024 pilot on the island of Mallorca using the NamicGreen platform, AIJIM achieved 85.4\% detection accuracy and 89.7\% agreement with expert annotations, while reducing reporting latency by 40\%. Unlike conventional approaches such as Data-Driven Journalism or AI Fact-Checking, AIJIM provides a transferable model for participatory, community-driven environmental reporting, advancing journalism, artificial intelligence, and sustainability in alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the EU AI Act.

Key words: French-Armenian art, sculpture, sculpture bust, coverage, source, cultural journalism Hakob Gurdjian is regarded as one of the greatest Armenian sculptors, whose work elevated modern Armenian sculpture to a European level. Among Gurdjian’s works are portraits of many famous personalities: pianist Issay Dobrowen, writer Maxim Gorky, opera singer Feodor Chaliapin, composer Sergei Rachmaninoff, actress Henrietta Pascar, etc. In addition to portraits, Gurdjian also worked on narrative sculpture. The most significant are "Pieta", "Victory", "Salome". Hakob Gurdjian left a rich legacy – at least five hundred works (sculptures and sketches) are stored in various museums around the world (e.g. four hundred of them are in Armenia). The periodical press is a decentralized source for the study of art, the observation and examination of which can only provide greater material. Art analyses, scientific articles, of course, are fundamentally important, but the press covers regularly, does not miss an event, provides exclusive information. The press is a mirror reflection of everyday events: and cultural events are never left out of these processes. Taking all this into account, we aimed in this article to highlight mentions of Hakob Gurdjian’s work in periodicals of Armenia, Russia, France, the United States, and Spain, focusing on aspects of his creative life.

Various aspects of pre-revolutionary journalism in Russian regions have been considered by such researchers as A.P. Shinkareva, N.V. Zhilyakova, V.A. Esipova, V.V. Shevtsov, E.I. Orlova, and others. Periodicals have paid much attention to the issue of assessing the interaction and mutual influence of journalism and the postal and telegraph service of the Russian Empire. The works of historians investigating communication problems in Siberia also often include local periodicals as sources of empirical material (for example, the works of O.N. Razumov, Ya.A. Yakovlev, Yu.K. Rassamakhin, V.V. Mirkin, V.A. Morev, etc.). In this case, researchers are usually not interested in the specifics of the coverage of the topic by journalists, and the actual data that was published in the periodicals. The purpose of this study is to identify the main problem-thematic blocks related to the coverage of the work of the post and telegraph in the periodical press of the Tomsk province, and to determine the specifics of their presentation on the pages of leading Tomsk newspapers. Research material: the first private newspaper in Tomsk, “Sibirskaya Gazeta” (1881–1888) and the first Tomsk illustrated newspaper, “Tomsky Listok” (1895–1896). Research methods: frontal analysis of the annual files of these newspapers, problem-thematic, genre, historical and typological analysis. The authors came to the following conclusions. The increased attention to postal and telegraphic communications in Siberia, which was shown by local journalism, was due to the direct dependence of the newspaper and magazine business on the uninterrupted operation of the post office and the existence of constant telegraphic communication between Russian cities. The analysis of newspaper publications allows us to identify such problem-themed blocks: subscription and delivery of periodicals; the internal life of the post office; the development of telegraphic communications. The specific features of the presentation of information about the post and telegraph in Siberia were: 1) the involvement of not only regular newspaper staff, but also freelance correspondents in covering the issue; 2) combining both factual and emotionally colored materials covering events related to the postal service, as well as the use of statistical data; 3) presentation of information in the format of detailed plots formed on the basis of publication in several issues of materials on the same topic, covering it from different angles.

In the domestic pre-revolutionary periodical press, starting from the end of the 18th century, a rather ramifi ed system of assistance to various segments of the population (children, the sick, the poor, people in diffi cult life situations, refugees, soldiers, etc.) was formed, including state, church and public participation. During the Russo-Japanese War and the First World War, the periodicals of the Russian Red Cross Society and its regional branches were active. The experience of pre-revolutionary publications can be relevant for modern domestic media performing social functions in areas of natural disasters, humanitarian catastrophes. This determines the relevance of the study. The object is Omsk pre-revolutionary “participatory journalism”. The subject is its thematic, genre and typological originality. The purpose of the study is to identify the typological, substantive and genre features of the “participatory journalism” of pre-revolutionary Omsk. To achieve the goal, it is necessary to solve the research problems: to study the history of the formation of the charity system in tsarist Russia; to identify the transformation of domestic philanthropic activity from the personal participation of each caring person to its inclusion in the system of state policy; to determine the typology of publications of a charitable nature in tsarist Russia; to get acquainted with the history of charitable societies of pre-revolutionary Siberia and their periodicals; in the course of the content analysis of government, religious, socio-political publications to identify the thematic originality of media texts of a charitable nature; in the course of genre analysis to identify the dominant genres of “participatory journalism”. Empirical material - issues of the newspapers “Akmola Regional News”, “Omsk Diocesan News”, “Omsk Herald”, “White fl ower”. Additional empirical material was provided by pre-revolutionary publications of a charitable nature, as well as Siberian pre-revolutionary publications (“Voice of Siberia”, “Ob’ life”, “Life in Siberia”, “Siberian leaf”, “Siberian Herald of Help to Warriors in War”). The chronological framework of the study is 1871–1917. The study has undoubted prospects: an analysis of the ideological and worldview foundations of the process of charity in the country at its various stages will expand the understanding of the ways and features of the formation of Russian political culture.

The Chechen issue’s treatment by the electoral bloc and Yabloko between 1994 and 1996 is exam-ined in this article. The author examines the journalism of the leader of the association, G.A. Yavlinsky, and analyzes his interviews for the central periodical press, as well as public appear-ances by other well-known deputies of the Federation Council and the State Duma of Russia from Yabloko – V.L. Sheinis, Yu.P. Shchekochikhin, V.V. Borshchev and E.B. Mizulina. The article explores the association’s views on the Chechen conflict in the context of the 1995 and 1996 elec-tions. It is concluded that in 1994-1996 Yabloko consistently held a moderate anti-war position. The article also provides the position of some regional branches of Yabloko. The association con-demned the military operation as a way to solve the crisis in the North Caucasus or the problem of terrorism, but did not question the territorial unity of the country, criticized the Chechen militants for terrorist acts in Budennovsk and Kizlyar, etc. and they considered the dead Russian military to be victims of tragic circumstances. The decline of the authority of the democratic forces and the intractability of G.A. Yavlinsky himself led to the fact that Yabloko failed to become the leader of a powerful anti-war movement.

The conversion of the media sphere in recent years has been defined, among other things, by the apparent transformation of the formal and content structure of news genres in the press. Opinion-forming periodicals, whose primary principles should be factuality, objectivity, and characteristic logic and conceptual approaches, are forced to adapt to new media trends, such as bulvarization. For this reason, there is a need for a detailed examination of the phenomena of bulvarization in the news genres of serious periodicals with the aim of updating and reevaluating the findings to date on this issue. This scientific study therefore focuses on identifying bulvarization elements present in opinion-forming press, respectively in news journalism. Specifically, this involves reflecting on the thematic (content) focus of individual journalistic texts with regard to specific bulvarization characteristics (narrativity, emotionality, dramatization, simplification, etc.) in connection with the discussed issue of bulvarization in the selected research material – extended news from selected opinion-forming periodicals (the daily newspapers Pravda and SME). The theoretical basis of the presented study further defines key concepts, such as the medium – the press, news genres, or the phenomenon of bulvarization. Mapping and detailing the signs of bulvarization in news articles from opinion-forming periodicals is the focus of the following case study. Similarly, in the context of the issue of bulvarization tendencies in today’s journalistic practice, we consider that the authors of individual linguistic expressions largely use elements of narrativity and dramatization, simplification/trivialization of topics, thereby pointing to current trends and the state of journalistic practice in the Slovak media environment. In the order to confirm this assumption, we apply qualitative content analysis and appropriate logical-conceptual procedures. The aim of this study is to expand scientific knowledge in the field of media studies relating to issues of bulvarization in opinion-forming periodicals in the form of theoretical-empirical reflection.

At the beginning of the 20th century, some Polish artists who lived in Georgia, collaborated with Georgian print media – newspapers and magazines and they published graphics, portraits, cartoons, documentary sketches like reportage style, drawings with headlines, etc. The goal of this interdisciplinary research paper is to study the Polish painters’ works in the Georgian periodical issues. This research paper is an attempt to study the role of Polish artists in the decoration of magazines and newspapers of this period. Polish artists published graphics, portraits, cartoons, social-political satirical drawings with headlines, etc. During this time, there were very few illustrations and decorations in the Georgian print media. Accordingly, polish painters were one of the first along with other Georgian artists. This is the period when the Georgian press begins to publish drawings and documentary sketches for the purpose to visualize magazines and newspapers. Thus, the relevance and novelty of this work are beyond doubt, as no one has examined the Georgian media of the 1910s–1920s from this perspective. Therefore, it is important to study the issue not only from the point of view of the history of Georgian journalism, but also from the point of view of studying the Polish cultural heritage and Georgian-Polish relations. These Polish artists were: Henryk Hryniewski, Zygmunt Waliszewski, Brothers Zdanevichs. They are often referred to as “Georgian Poles”. The study, which was prepared with a grant from the Mieroszewski Research Center, was conducted in Poland as well as in Georgian Libraries. According to the results of this study the life and work of Polish artists working in Georgian media is a clear proof of the crossing of cultures and civilizations. They are part of both Georgian and Polish culture, and as a whole, they create European culture and spiritual values.

One of the activities of Russian philosopher and pedagogue Sergei Gessen (Hessen) was co-operation with pedagogical journals of the Russian emigration. The article examines the relationship between Gessen and the journal Russkaya Shkola [Russian School] in the Russian émigré pedagogical journalism historical contexts in the 1930s. Gessen actively published his works in émigré (Sovremennye Zapiski, Vestnik Samoobrazovanie, etc.) and foreign pedagogical periodicals (Die Erziehung, Ruch Pedagogiczny, etc.). The central for his pedagogical and philosophical journalism was the Russian School Abroad journal. Having gained a reputation as one of the leading educators of Russia abroad after publication of his Fundamentals of Pedagogy in Berlin in 1923, Gessen headed this journal and turned it into a centre of serious pedagogical and methodological work since 1924. He managed to use it as a tool for coordination of pedagogical community and institutions of educational activities in the Diaspora. The world economic crisis led to a sharp deterioration of the situation with Russian journals, including pedagogical ones. In 1931 Russian School Abroad was closed due to the lack of funding. In these circumstances a significant event was the publication of the journal Russkaya Shkola in Prague in 1934. Its editor A.T. Pavlov attracted the best intellectual forces of the emigration (N.A. Hans, V.V. Zenkovsky, G.Y. Troshin, and others), as well as Czech educators. In fact, Gessen became the coordinator and ideologist of the journal work. He touched upon the most important problems of the modern school, analyzed the state of the Soviet school and education theory, assessed the trends in the development of European education in his articles “Worldview and Education”, “The Problem of the Unified School”, “School and Economy”, “The Last Phase of Soviet Pedagogy”, etc. He also worked with the genres of review and survey of pedagogical literature traditional for him. The author stresses that the ideas of the scholar’s main theoretical publications were close to his articles in Sovremennye Zapiski and Novy Grad, as well as in the Czech, Polish and German pedagogical press. Collaboration with Russkaya Shkola was an important part of Gessen’s scientific, pedagogical and journalistic activities in the 1930s. However, the scholar did not confine himself within the pedagogical space of emigration, and the journal became an expert platform where he presented his ideas and projects and outlined the prospects for the development of European education. After the Second World War, a number of articles from Russkaya Shkola were published in Gessen’s Polish book The Structure and Content of the Modern School. Essays on General Didactics (1947).

Context and relevance. The article explores the role of the Italian press during the Risorgimento period and emphasizes its influence on social, political and cultural changes in the country. Objective. To investigate how Risorgimento journalism reflects changes in Italian society and contributes to the formation of a national identity. Hypothesis. The Italian press not only reported on the Risorgimento events, but also played an active role in shaping ideological and political currents, contributing to the society’s consolidation around the idea of national unity. Methods and materials. The research is based on an analysis of the historical background and key events that took place during the Risorgimento. It studies the evolution of democratic and moderate movements, as well as their influence on the press at the time. The materials used include data from periodicals such as Gazzetta Italiana, Rivista Europea, Politecnico, as well as quotes and opinions from prominent political figures like Giuseppe Mazzini, Camillo Cavour, Massimo D'Azeglio etc. Descriptive and comparative analysis is used to identify the characteristics of different areas of journalism and their significance in public life during this period. Results. The study revealed that Risorgimento journalism was a multifaceted phenomenon reflecting the opposition of ideological and political trends. The democratic movement, led by Mazzini, actively used the press to promote revolutionary ideas. The moderate movement represented by Cavour advocated reforms and a constitutional monarchy, also actively using the printed word. The role of literature and art, closely related to journalism, in the formation of national identity is shown. International relations and the influence of Risorgimento on European journalism are revealed. Conclusions. Risorgimento journalism has become an integral part of the Italian unification process, being a mirror of social change and a powerful tool for shaping national identity.

This study investigates news audiences’ platform preferences, usage patterns, and factors affecting their mobile news consumption through news apps. Four explanatory factors, news app users’ demographics, news media usage, perceptions, and motivations, are proposed to predict adoption intention. By surveying 698 mobile news app users in the US, this study’s findings indicate that user perceptions of news apps (i.e., perceived ease of use, compatibility, relative content advantage, and observability) and instrumental motivations of news consumption (i.e., information-seeking and opinion needs) best predict news consumers’ willingness to continue using mobile news apps. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed to offer new insights into mobile news audience behavior and inform current digital publishers on cross-media strategies in the highly competitive mobile news market.

El cine ha incorporado en sus historias el oficio del periodismo ya que, por la naturaleza de la profesión, permite introducir narraciones con un alto grado de interés. En el imaginario colectivo los periodistas se posicionan como el cuarto poder y tienen una responsabilidad social. En los comienzos del cine y hasta los años 90, aproximadamente, las mujeres -frente a sus compañeros masculinos- ocupaban un rol secundario, en papeles estereotipados que las mostraban como profesionales frías, implacables, dispuestas a todo para conseguir la noticia en detrimento de su vida personal. Aparecen masculinizadas y sexualizadas. Empleando una triangulación metodológica que aplica las técnicas del análisis descriptivo, el análisis fílmico y la entrevista en profundidad se estudia el largometraje El reino, de Rodrigo Sorogoyen, para determinar cómo se representa la figura de la periodista en él. Tras el estudio de los resultados se observa que las periodistas en activo, en la actualidad, no se ven representadas por la visión de su profesión que ofrece El reino ni el cine en general. Esto se debe a que se siguen perpetuando ciertos estereotipos con los que se muestra en la gran pantalla el rol de la mujer periodista.

Developed as a response to the increasing popularity of data-driven journalism, automated journalism refers to the process of automating the collection, production, and distribution of news content and other data with the assistance of computer programs. Although the algorithmic technologies associated with automated journalism remain in the initial stage of development, early adopters have already praised the usefulness of automated journalism for generating routine news based on clean, structured data. Most noticeably, the Associated Press and The New York Times have been automating news content to cover financial and sports issues for over a decade. Nevertheless, research on automated journalism is also alerting to the dangers of using algorithms for news creation and distribution, including the possible bias behind AI systems or the human bias of those who develop computer programs. The popularization of automated news content also has important implications for the infrastructure of the newsroom, the role performance of journalists and other non-journalistic professionals, and the distribution of news content to a datafied audience.

The integration of data visualization in journalism has catalyzed the growth of data storytelling in recent years. Today, it is increasingly common for journalism schools to incorporate data visualization into their curricula. However, the approach to teaching data visualization in journalism schools can diverge significantly from that in computer science or design schools, influenced by the varied backgrounds of students and the distinct value systems inherent to these disciplines. This paper reviews my experience and reflections on teaching data-driven storytelling in a journalism school in Shanghai, China. To begin with, I discuss three prominent characteristics of journalism education (i.e., students' lack of quantitative literacy, the tension between humanism and technocentrism, and the high requirements for content professionalism) that pose challenges for course design and teaching. Then, for each challenge, I share firsthand teaching experiences and discuss corresponding approaches for teaching, such as trying to put visualization into a news context and finding commonality between data-driven storytelling and traditional storytelling. Overall, this paper aims to provide reference and inspiration for instructors who are teaching data visualization and data-driven storytelling to students with non-technical backgrounds.

In the context of journalism, the COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges, necessitating rapid adaptations in newsrooms. Data journalism emerged as a pivotal approach for effectively conveying complex information to the public. Here, we show the profound impact of COVID-19 on data journalism, revealing a surge in data-driven publications and heightened collaboration between data and science journalists. Employing a quantitative methodology, including negative binomial regression and Relational hyperevent models (RHEM), on byline data of articles co-authored by data journalists, we comprehensively analyze data journalism outputs, authorship trends, and collaboration networks to address five key research questions. The findings reveal a significant increase in data journalistic pieces during and after the pandemic, in particular with a rise in publications within scientific departments. Collaborative efforts among data and science journalists intensified, evident through increased authorship and co-authorship trends. Prior common authorship experiences somewhat influenced the likelihood of future co-authorships, underscoring the importance of building collaborative communities of practice. These quantitative insights provide an understanding of the transformational role of data journalism during COVID-19, contributing to the growing body of literature in computational communication science and journalism practice.

Fake (false) news today has a global scale. Unfortunately, this fact confi rms the relevance of this study. The word fake is constantly found in modern media, but earlier phraseological units of deception were more common. The article examines the genesis of phraseological units of journalistic deception in the domestic pre-revolutionary press. The author reviewed about 40 periodicals of the Russian Empire, dictionaries, fi ction and ego-documents. The purpose of the study is to form a picture of hostility towards journalistic deception, phraseologically fi xed at the verbal and visual level of Russian periodicals of the 19th – early 20th centuries. Among the many European and domestic studies of phraseological units of journalistic lies, scientists paid almost no attention to the visual context. This article partially fi lls this gap. Illustrated publications of the 1860s–1880s were especially carefully reviewed to identify early visual images associated with phraseological units of journalistic lies. The research is based on the principles of historicism and systematicity; the methodology of the history of concepts and the history of images was used. During a continuous and selective review of Russian pre-revolutionary periodicals, 38 verbal examples of the use of phraseological units of journalistic deception and 69 visual examples were identifi ed. The most common are the word pouf and the phraseological unit newspaper hoax, much less often magazine hoax, literary hoax, political hoax, etc. The word pouf in the context of deception appeared in Russian journalism from the late 1830s and began to be widely used in the 1840s. The phraseological unit newspaper hoax entered the Russian language in the late 1850s, since the 1860s it had become understandable to most readers and was actively used by the domestic press throughout the pre-revolutionary period. Among the most desirable prospects for this research should be the identifi cation of phraseological units of journalistic deception in Russian periodicals of the early twentieth century. In this case, special attention should be paid to the poorly studied visual area. Keywords: Russian pre-revolutionary journalism, phraseology, journalistic deception, fake, pouf, newspaper hoax
