Behind the scenes of a TV interview : off-camera interactions between journalists and politicians
- 2008
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article deals with the organization of off-camera interactions between journalists and politicians. What kinds of talk transpire between the participants before and after the broadcast interview? What functions do the before and after interview interaction seem to have? What social norms and conventions seem to influence the character of the pre-interview and post-interview discourse? How are their respective professional roles negotiated in these settings? The framing of the interview as an object of study in its production context aims to contribute to existing research on the news interview, specifically within Conversation Analysis (e.g. Clayman and Heritage 2002), which has not studied processes of production, but has mostly restricted itself to analyses of that which is broadcast to the audience.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- By combining ethnographic methods with textual analysis, this article sets out to answer the question how a scripted event on live television is infused with a sense of ‘liveness’ in order to balance the requirements of control and spontaneity in a broadcast interview. The management of this seemingly paradoxical desire is, in this analysis, linked to the ways in which professionals work at maintaining the identity of public service while competing on a commercial media market. In relation to this general inquiry, the script’s status in the production of a broadcast interview will also be analyzed, an area which is somewhat of a blind spot in media research. In doing so, the conventional division between scripted and unscripted broadcast talk (Scannell 2003) is called into question.
