THE ROLE OF INNOVATION JOURNALISM IN SCIENCE NEWS MEDIA
Innovation Journalism Vol.2 No.10, Jun 21 2005
By Marie Granmar.
During the past decade there has been an important worldwide trend in which more research is conducted in private companies or research departments with high ambitions of spin-offs. The science journalism tradition of mainly giving perspectives on recently published peer reviewed articles is no longer sufficient. Innovation journalism increases the possibilities of covering key factors driving scientific development. This paper describes how a few different science media have chosen to approach the challenge of integrating innovation journalism. It discusses the challenges for the modern science journalists, their work environments and editorial organizations.

HOW TO DO ENVIRONMENTAL INNOVATION JOURNALISM
Innovation Journalism Vol.2 No.9, Jun 7 2005
By Birgitta Forsberg.
http://innovationjournalism.org/archive/INJO-2-9.pdf
The purpose of this paper is to give other journalists ideas of how to do environmental innovation journalism and to define the field of environmental innovation journalism. The paper gives some examples and partly describes what is happening with companies’ environmental work. It is the hope of the author that readers will find interesting threads that will become embryos of new stories. As this paper is aimed at journalists, the reader is expected to have journalistic skills and to know how to do research, how to be critical, balanced and accurate and how to handle ethical dilemmas. Basic journalism is beyond the scope of this paper.
