Publication Type: Session Paper Abstract: Journalism educators hope that their work is integral in the formation of new generations of watchdog journalists. Key ideals are that, when influencing journalism students, educators should stimulate public service motivations and foster the development of a confident maturity in ethical outlook. But the extent to which journalism education succeeds in such aims is rarely researched. This study of British graduate students in 12 journalism programmes at six universities assesses whether their views on the roles of the news media within society, and on the ethics of journalistic practices, changed during this education. Survey data from 291 students sampled as or soon after they arrived on these programmes were compared with data from 208 students sampled shortly before the programmes were completed. Compared to the arrival sample, the completion sample exhibited a statistically significant higher level of approval for the news media to be a sceptical adversary of public officials. But the completion sample placed less importance than the arrival sample did on the news media addressing the widest possible audience. Students in the completion sample were more likely than those in the arrival sample to approve of journalists using confidential business or government documents without authorisation, and tended to be less likely to approve of journalists disclosing rape victims’ names. Our findings are discussed in the contexts of British journalistic culture; the changing media ecology; possible generational differences in outlook between these students and experienced journalists; and findings from surveys of journalism students in other countries.
