Anna Politkovskaya Anna Stepanovna Politkovskaya (Russian: А́нна Степа́новна Политко́вская; Ukrainian: Га́нна Степа́нівна Політко́вська; 30 August 1958 – 7 October 2006) was a Russian[1] journalist, writer, and human rights activist known for her opposition to the Chechen conflict and President of Russia Vladimir Putin.[2] On 7 October 2006 she was shot and killed in the lift of her block of flats, an unsolved murder that continues to attract international attention.[6][7][8] Early life[edit] Journalistic work[edit] Politkovskaya worked for Izvestia from 1982 to 1993 as a reporter and editor of the emergencies and accidents section. Reports from Chechnya[edit] Politkovskaya won a number of awards for her work.[11][12] She used each of these occasions to urge greater concern and responsibility by Western governments that, after the 11 September attacks on the United States, welcomed Putin's contribution to their "War on Terror". Criticism of Vladimir Putin and FSB[edit] She also wrote: A Russian Diary[edit]

Anyone can do it. Data journalism is the new punk | News This is a chord… this is another… this is a third. NOW FORM A BAND So went the first issue of British punk fanzine Sideburns in 1977 in the "first and last part in a series". It might be 35 years old, but this will do nicely as a theory of data journalism in 2012. Why? Crucial to it was the idea: anyone can do it. Is the same true of data journalism? Now is the time to examine this - in May 2010, we published this piece on how reporters would soon be flooded with a "tsunami of data". There are even different streams now - short-form, quick-and-dirty data visualisations of the kind we do every day on the Datablog, right through to complex investigations and visualisations - such as our riots data analysis or the kind of projects which made the shortlist of the Data Journalism Awards, from around the world. So, can we still say that anyone can do data journalism; in the first and last part in a series. 1) This is a dataset 2) Here's another 3) Here are some free tools But is that enough?
100 books every journalist must read - John Kroll Digital A young journalism student once asked a newspaper editor what she should do to prepare for her hoped-for career as a political reporter. “Read,” the editor said. Absolutely, I thought, sitting between them, waiting for my own interview for a top job to resume. “Read Shakespeare,” he said. “And the Bible.” Forsooth, I thought, that will not beget much gain. I have a more mundane view of the must-read journalism books. They must be examples of journalism, or about the practice or history of journalism and storytelling.They should be of long-term value.They should, in sum, provide the reader with a broad perspective on journalism as a craft and an understanding of key developments. Those rules explain why most of the books on this list are older; it takes time to prove value. This is Version 1.0. The African-American Newspaper, Patrick S. Other voice: Felix F.

2 ans de datajournalisme vus par le Guardian Premier média au monde à se mettre au data journalisme, le quotidien britannique The Guardian revient sur ses deux ans d’expérience et les leçons à en tirer. Tous les liens de l’article sont en anglais. Voilà une information intéressante : le data journalisme a désormais gagné ses lettres de noblesse. Pas à la manière de l’élite d’Oxbridge (bien qu’il y ait des données là-dessus), mais plutôt en devenant une norme de l’industrie. Il y a deux ans, quand nous avons lancé le Datablog, tout ça était nouveau. Les gens demandaient encore si raconter des histoires à partir de données relevait vraiment du journalisme et tout le monde n’avait pas vu la risposte d’Adrian Holovaty. Entre-temps, chaque jour amène de nouveaux journalistes toujours plus innovants dans ce domaine. Voilà quelques pistes issues de mes récentes conférences. 1. La grosse différence avec cette époque ? 2. 3. Parfois. 4. Read more about this map 5. C’est tout. 6. 7. 8. Un bon design fait vraiment la différence. 9. 10.
Analyzing the Top 30 Infographics on Visually Ever wonder what makes an infographic successful? Why do some infographics accumulate more than 1 million views and others, barely 100? We’ve talked about viral infographics before, from a creative process standpoint: the story, data and design of an infographic all play a role in whether it will appeal to the masses, as does the way it is promoted. But what does viral content have in common? The primary statistic used is unique pageviews accumulated since the Visual.ly website launched in July 2011. The graphics can be grouped into buckets based on four dimensions: 1. We’ll look at content type (1), design type (3), and data visualization (4) in this post, and leave a study of content domains, or topics, for another day. Four Content Types (The SVG charts embedded below link to the individual graphics, but may not appear in some browsers). 1. 54,097 avg. unique views per graphic (excluding outlier) 2. 45,440 avg. unique views per graphic (excluding outlier) 3. 4.

5 Tools for Online Journalism, Exploration and Visualization – ReadWrite In our last post on data journalism, we ran across a number of tools that would be helpful for anyone who is interested in how to make sense of data. The tools represent a renaissance in how we make sense of our information culture. They provide context and meaning to the often baffling world of big data. This is a snapshot of what is available. We are relying on the work done by Paul Bradshaw, whose blog is an excellent source about the new world of data journalism. Factual Factual provides simple APIs for building Web and mobile apps. How To Create a Table With Factual on Howcast Socrata Socrata is one of a handful of companies and organizations that are shaping the open data movement in government. Google Fusion Tables Google Fusion Tables is a Google Labs project. WikiEDData uses Google Fusion Table to map poverty levels in Washington state school districts: Yahoo! Yahoo! OpenHeatMap OpenHeatMap is another example of how to turn data into maps.
CC license version 4.0: Helping meet the needs of open data publishers and users Over the last few months, Creative Commons has been working on the next version of its license suite, version 4.0. The goals of version 4.0 are wide-ranging, but the overall objective is clear: update the licenses so they are considerably more robust, yet easy to understand and use, for both existing communities and new types of users. A key community that version 4.0 aims to serve better are public sector agencies releasing data. Public sector information can be of great value, but the public needs to know what they can do with it. Sui generis database rights One area of particular interest to European data publishers and users will be the shift in how CC licenses handle sui generis database rights. Here’s an example. In 3.0 (International), a user extracts some public transport data in the database in a way that doesn’t implicate copyright. Strengthen reputation and integrity Updated attribution CC 4.0 also attempts to clarify and simplify the attribution requirements.
