Pacific Journalism Review 20(1)

Pacific Journalism Review has called on journalists to keep faith with their fundamental job of being an “outsider” – confronting, not acting as a handmaiden to power.

The media research journal, in its third edition dealing with investigative journalism methodologies, has featured several major investigations, including Munster award-winning journalist Jo Chandler for her series on sorcery in Papua New Guinea and other issues. 

In the editorial by issue co-editor Professor Wendy Bacon, the journal has warned over the business model pressures that have threatened “sustained high quality investigative journalism”.
