Abstract
The article introduces the results of an empirical examination of journalistic
role performance in Hungary. In reference to the “Journalistic Role Performance
Around the Globe” research project (led by Prof. Claudia Mellado from Pontificia
Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, in Chile and Lea Hellmueller, from Texas States
University, www.journalisticperformance.org), we attempt to discuss the main patterns
of role performance in contemporary journalism in Hungary. The presence of
six models in news production (watchdog, disseminator-interventionist, civic, loyalfacilitator,
service journalism, and infotainment) is investigated by conducting a quantitative
content analysis of 1,087 news items published by the national desk of four
Hungarian broadsheets in 2012–2013.
