Die Nachrichten des öffentlich-rechtlichen ORF müssen sich im Spannungsfeld zwischen Profit, Professionalität, Publikum und Politik positionieren und profilieren. Die Legitimation des öffentlich-rechtlichen Status wird dabei vermehrt mit dem Hinweis in Frage gestellt, dass der ORF seinem gesetzlichen Programmauftrag nicht nachkomme und politisch unausgewogen berichte.

Dabei zeigt sich zum einen, dass sich die ORF-Berichterstattung weitgehend im Rahmen transnationaler journalistischer Trends einordnet. Zum anderen werden allerdings punktuell signifikante Differenzierungen zwischen öffentlich-rechtlichem und privatem Nachrichten-Angebot sichtbar - vor allem was die demokratiepolitische Dimension der Information betrifft.... view less

As a result, ORF news widely accord with transnational journalistic trends. However, on a selective level some significant differences between public service and private news emerge - particularly as far as the public policy-dimension and relevance of information is concerned.... view less
