John Oliver entre l'humour et le journalisme d'enquête


Topo intéressant sur le travail de l'animateur de l'émission Last week tonight sur HBO. Et je ne suis pas le seul professeur à utiliser des segments de son émission dans ses cours!

 "That's journalism, minus any apparent attempt to let pageant officials offer their side. The organization subsequently issued a statement not specifically addressing Oliver's charge that Miss America was being misleading, but said that "as with any scholarship, the full amount awarded may not always be used as recipients plans change or evolve."

 Oliver has journalists who worked at the New York Times Magazine and ProPublica on his writing staff.

Robert Thompson, director of Syracuse University's Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture, calls Oliver's work "investigative comedy." Thompson has played the net neutrality segment for his students.

Research indicates that young people are much more likely than their elders to take a deeper dive into news stories that interest them, searching for more information online, said Tom Rosenstiel, executive director of the American Press Institute. What Oliver is doing responds to that desire, he said."
