Samenvatting
[An exploration of news and documentary journalism as disciplines
and technologies concerned with the problem of how "truth" can be
told about foreign cultures and distant political events. Three
principal historical and theoretical themes are addressed: (1)
the authority of the visual as a record of a distant and foreign
reality; (2) the relation between those ways of telling the truth
that depend on the reliabilty and existence of a visual record vs
the authority of the "reliable" reporter; (3) the different and
changing functions of visualizing / reporting distant events and
cultures. Examples concern the use of photography, film and video
in news and documentary journalism from the late 19th c. onward.
Analysis is theoretically grounded in the work of Bruno Latour
and Michel Foucault. (c) Sociological Abstracts Inc.]
