Such favorability alongside unmet normative expectations, I argue, reflects individuals’ relative institutional trust in journalism above any substantive evaluation of media performance. (5/6)

Thanks to IJPP editor @profvaccari.bsky.social, special issue editors Ruth Moon, @leahellmueller.bsky.social and Herman Wasserman, and reviewers for helpful comments on the manuscript. And, as always, none of this would be possible w/o the journalists who agreed to speak with me. 🙏 (4/4)

This third paper explores ways that the social profiles of those who attend peace journalism trainings may shape how the normative model is ultimately adapted across contexts. Using field theory, I focus on participants' education, career trajectory, and conflict experience (3/4)

While related publications have addressed 1) how journalists who attend peace journalism trainings define peace journalism and 2) how a subset of these journalists ascribe value to trainings despite feeling as though they already practice peace journalism... (2/4)
