Resumo: | We argue that improving news literacy demands considering news producers and their potential contributions. This is an especially relevant issue in countries where the news industry faces major sustainability challenges and does not have a tradition of leading and implementing news literacy. We present the results from an analysis of 11 semi-structured interviews with journalists, news editors and former ombudsmen. According to the results, traditional journalists consider it their responsibility to practice good journalism but not to foster news literacy. The interviewees were not at ease defining media literacy. They were aware of the role of journalism in media education but did not view it as a concern in the daily life of the newsroom. |
