Please find here, news of a two-day conference, the aim of which is to bring together researchers of Journalism, Political and Governmental Communication, with opportunities for dialogue between them. This event is organised through the Centre for Trust, Peace and Social Relations at Coventry University, and hosted by Prof Jake Lynch (University of Sydney and Leverhulme Visiting Professor, Coventry University) and Dr Charis Rice (Coventry University). It will be held online on: September 15-16th 2020, 10am – 6pm (UK time, exact timings to be confirmed) The concept for the conference was suggested by the regularity with which we now find that real-world issues in journalism concerning representation, impacts and media effects are indissociable, in practice, from behaviours of and relationships with sources, including those in and around governments. So concerns over ethics and responsibility in the two fields beg to be considered together.
