Aktivistisk journalistik med måde
I aktivistisk journalistik (‘advocacy journalism’) arbejder journalister aktivt for at fremme en bestemt politisk eller social sag. Praksissen er omdiskuteret fordi den umiddelbart er i strid med den journalistiske objektivitetsnorm. Denne artikel vender opmærksomheden mod to eksempler hvor danske journalister ikke desto mindre har opnået faglig anerkendelse for at tilskrive sociale bevægelser retorisk handlekraft. Det første eksempel er Erik Thygesens mobilisering af den danske kvindebevægelse i 1970’erne; det andet er Jørgen Steen Nielsens forsvar for den unge klimabevægelse i 2010’erne. Artiklen illustrerer hvordan journalister kan balancere mellem journalistik og aktivisme og tilskrive sociale bevægelser retorisk handlekraft uden samtidig at kompromittere deres egen privilegerede handleposition som journalister. Om end Thygesen og Nielsen bevarer en kritisk distance til de sociale bevægelser de dækker, bidrager de ikke desto mindre til at fremme bevægelsernes sag ved at etablere mulige kommunikative relationer mellem mennesker der enten har lille kendskab til eller forståelse for hinanden
Tireless in His Service: Rasmus Andersen, Pastor and Author 1878-1924
Of the four founders of the Danish Lutheran Church in America in 1872, the one concerning whom the most information exists is Rasmus Andersen. Yet it has been my observation that comparatively little is known about him. A reason for this is that, to my knowledge, no comprehensive biography exists, and there is almost nothing available in the English language. Most of the material that does exist is to be found in the Danes World Wide Archives ( Udvandrerarkivet ) in Aalborg, Denmark. According to Birgit Flemming Larsen, who oversees that archive, the Andersen collection is the largest at the Aalborg archive. It consists of 104 archival boxes, filled with books, letters, diaries, memoirs, ministerial records, copies of letters sent, unpublished manuscripts and much more. The Danes World Wide Archives constitutes a treasure trove for the researcher who is interested in Rasmus Andersen

The Media Provocateur:A Rhetorical Framework for Studying an Emerging Persona in Journalism
With the proliferation of digital and social media in particular, non-traditional actors are entering journalism based on their personal rhetorical competencies, rather than their formal journalistic credentials. Among such actors are public debaters who establish themselves as professional opinion-makers and media personalities via ‘media provocations’. In this article, we develop a conceptual framework for studying how these media provocateurs emerge as influential personas in journalism. Whereas previous research has provided important insights into how similar non-traditional actors have challenged journalism from a sociological perspective, we adopt a rhetorical perspective on the phenomenon and describe how the provocateurs’ public persona constructions evolve in a sequential, cumulative, and transformative communicative process that cuts across different rhetorical situations in a hybrid media system. The proposed framework points to several future avenues of research into how non-traditional actors, such as media provocateurs, (micro-)bloggers, and social media influencers, may reflect the current state and direction of journalism.With the proliferation of digital and social media in particular, non-traditional actors are entering journalism based on their personal rhetorical competencies, rather than their formal journalistic credentials.
