The dead pope 'live': televisienieuws, technologie en journalistiek: het Journaal 1956-1996

Abstract

Studies on the relationship between television journalism and technology are scarce in the Netherlands. In this article the author describes the development of forty years of television news in the Netherlands as the result of the interplay of technological opportunities, institutional space and professional practice. On the basis of studying primary written sources, interviewing key persons in broadcasting and some content analysis the author sketches how the television news has developed from a derivative from older media to its own format. He distinguishes a ‘film model’, in which the film tradition dominated, a ‘press model’, in which television journalism became professional after the example of the written press, and a ‘television model’, in which television journalism finally began to obtain its own profile.
