    Le conseil suisse de la presse, état des lieux
    (2022-12-7)
    À l’approche de son 50e anniversaire, le Conseil suisse de la presse (CSP) fait face à plusieurs évolutions. La première concerne la hausse du volume des plaintes, qui a doublé depuis 2017 ; multifactorielle, cette augmentation pose des défis au CSP, peu équipé pour y faire face. La deuxième concerne une juridicisation croissante du processus de plainte : cette institutionnalisation met en péril l’essence même de l’au-torégulation et sa capacité à répondre aux préoccupations du public.L’article aborde ces questions, puis les réformes adoptées récemment par le CSP. Une partie d’entre elles concerne les mécanismes d’in-troduction des plaintes ; l’autre touche à des Directives régissant des principes journalistiques. Le Conseil s’est notamment penché sur la protection de la vie privée, le native advertising et l’audition en cas de reproches graves. Ces réformes sont analysées en tenant compte de l’évolution du contexte médiatique, et en donnant des pistes de solutions pour l’avenir

    Stay Strong, Get Perspective, or Give Up: Role Negotiation in Small-Scale Investigative Journalism
    This article examines how investigative journalists, especially those working in newsroom contexts, deal with discrepancies between ideals and practice by actively negotiating their roles. Based on interviews with 28 Swiss journalists, it argues that despite having a strongly shared ideology revolving around the democratic roles of journalism, investigative reporters negotiate their investigative commitment on a daily basis. The study provides a conceptual model of this process based on a distinction between “liquid” and “solid” negotiation strategies, in the sense of Deuze. “Liquid” strategies involve reinterpreting, contesting and combining various journalistic roles, leading journalists to negotiate their investigative performance based on various individual organizational and institutional factors. Conversely, “solid” strategies tend to involve dogmatic attitudes toward investigative journalism. While this approach allows journalists to live by their ideals most of the time, it can also lead to simply dropping out. The study concludes with several important implications for research on journalistic identity and roles, as well as on media management, particularly regarding journalists’ agency in redefining journalism.

    “To Me, It's Normal Journalism” Professional Perceptions of Investigative Journalism and Evaluations of Personal Commitment
    This paper examines how professionals define investigative journalism, which criteria they use to assess their and others’ work, and how they apply them. Based on 23 in-depth interviews with Swiss journalists, our research sheds new light on professionals’ normative assumptions, and provides insights on how to think about investigative journalism more generally. Implicit and explicit professional definitions reveal a shared conception of journalism, which has strong normative implications. According to their narratives, professionals rely on a gradual and multilevel definition of investigative journalism, while often talking about it as an absolute. Rather than a discrete category, “investigative journalism” is best seen as existing on a continuum between full-fledged investigative endeavor and the most basic reporting, with the main cursor being the personal commitment: professionals value the extent of efforts provided during the investigative process, as much as other constitutive elements such as exposing breaches of public trust. They built on a mix of various elements regarding what constitutes investigative journalism. We distinguished three types of defining criteria: motive, extent of efforts and technique involved. These criteria counterbalance each other in practice. Arguably, these gradual conceptions allow for adjustments between a clear-cut ideal and the real work context.

    It is often stated that journalism and the media are going through some fundamental changes. In this article, we present a description of the journalists in Switzerland, based on a nation-wide survey conducted in 2015. This data gives a quantitative description of journalists in Switzerland. Furthermore, this article makes comparison between various groups of journalists, for example between the different language regions in Switzerland, in order to give a differentiated picture of who the journalists are, what their working situation looks like and how they perceive their own professional role in society.

    Canada, Belgium and Switzerland are multicultural countries with several similarities including having French as a minority language. The trio also shares similar media landscapes, systems and approaches to journalism to those of other Western European and Northern American countries. These commonalities offer an opportunity to probe for the possibility of a language-based differentiation in journalists’ professional identities. Our comparative analysis of Worlds of Journalism Study data suggests that francophone journalists in our three countries have much more in common than not with their other-language peers. However, the francophone journalists seem more likely to identify with a politicized role that includes agenda-setting, citizen-motivation and scrutinizing power, and less likely to be driven by attracting and satisfying audiences. A différence francophone exists, but it is modest.

    Le journalisme d’investigation à l’ère du numérique. Du mythe au renouvellement
    (2017-1-17)
    Le journalisme a connu de nombreuses crises dans sa courte histoire ; la dernière en date semble toutefois plus massive et plus bouleversante que les précédentes. La profession vit en effet une période de bouleversements majeurs, dûs en grande partie à l’avènement de l’ère numérique et à ses conséquences. Dans ce contexte, l’image sociale des journalistes s’est encore « dégradée » (Neveu, 2001, 93), l’« ampleur de la défiance » (Charon, 1993, 13) envers les professionnels est encore plus considérable - comme en attestent divers sondages (notamment : www.tns-sofres.com/publications/barometre-2016-de-confiance-des-francais- dans-les-media), débats publics ou même ouvrages de professionnels aux titres évocateurs parus ces dix dernières années (par ex : A-t-on encore besoin des journalistes ? / Notre métier a mal tourné / ...). Cette crise d’image est dûe au moins autant aux fautes commises à certaines occasions par certains professionnels (fautes immédiatement visibles et surexposées par nature) qu’aux attentes considérables et très positives (mais parfois surévaluées) que suscite cette profession dans l’espace public. Ces attentes sont souvent entachées de stéréotypes et confortées par des mythes sur le rôle du journalisme et sa nature. Comme tous les mythes, ces derniers sont à la fois utiles socialement, en termes de cohésion, d’identité professionnelle ou d’explication, mais ils sont aussi excessivement simplificateurs et déformants. C’est du côté positif (mais aussi surévalué) de l’image du journalisme que se situe l’investigation (ou « enquête », les deux termes seront ici employés comme des synonymes), genre sur lequel, chose étonnante dans un champ aussi disputé, tout le monde est à peu près d’accord : l’investigation, c’est bien, c’est noble, c’est nécessaire, c’est l’honneur du journalisme... Ce genre est donc crédité d’un préjugé très positif, qui interpelle dans le cadre de la durable crise d’image évoquée plus haut.
