Erratum


It has come to our notice that material from a paper by Dr Stephen Harrington, presented at the ‘Journalism in Crisis’ conference (University of Westminster, London, 19 May 2009) and entitled ‘Not all journalisms are in crisis: unorthodox news forms and public knowledge’, has been reproduced in the introduction and chapter 3 of this volume without the permission of, or attribution to, the author and copyright owner.


Cambridge University Press wishes to correct this oversight. The text detailed below should have been presented as quoted material, with the following citation provided:

For the avoidance of doubt, Dr Milissa Deitz wishes to confirm that the interview with Craig Reucassel cited on page 75 of the volume was conducted by Dr Harrington, and should have been cited accordingly.


Dr Milissa Deitz and Cambridge University Press apologise to Dr Stephen Harrington for these omissions, and for any reputational harm or other difficulties experienced by him as a result. We confirm that the material cited is an original work of authorship created by Dr Harrington, and that copyright in the material concerned is vested in him.


A modified and updated version of Dr Harrington’s paper, entitled ‘The uses of satire: unorthodox news, cultural chaos and the interrogation of power’ is due to appear in a future issue of Journalism: Theory, Practice and Criticism.
