Technicité intellectuelle et professionnalisme des journalistes

Year: 1993

Type: article

Abstract: This article questions the concept of intellectual technicity of journalism. In the first part, it looks at the usual practices of the profession, particularly the use of the notion of a "viewpoint", and concludes that the technical dimension, although present, is nonetheless incomplete and unsystematized. In the second part the authors relate this technicity to the socio-professional context, by explaining that the claim of being part of a technical milieu, very frequent in professionalist discourse, is part of journalists' broad strategy of controlling their field of activity.
