Summary/Abstract: The concept of a “New Deal” in journalism” takes its cue from President Roosevelt‘s “New Deal” for America‘s economic recovery and offers a new vision for how journalism can meet the challenges of the 21st century. The basic idea is to forge a new relationship between the state and society – on the one hand and independent quality journalism on the other – so that the Fourth Estate can live up to its mission and functions. Mobile journalism is one of the most dynamic sectors of journalism, at the intersection of audiovisual and digital media. This report examines the place of this type of journalism in the emerging new global framework for media development that is the vision of a “New Deal” for journalism”.
