Catalan Media, Past and Present: Press, TV, Radio and Other News Outlets
Do Catalan newspapers have a unique point of view not represented elsewhere in the Spanish press and ignored abroad? Has this always been the case historically? Is it possible to specify a particular style of Catalan TV or radio? How are the journalists of the Països Catalans using twenty-first-century media? And how does Catalan journalism compare with the profession in other European countries or the US?
Join us for a day of discussion, analysis and comparison on the Catalan media with speakers from Catalonia, Valencia, Mallorca, Ireland, Wales, and Germany: Dr Richard Huddleson (Maynooth University), Dr J. Àngel Cano (Universitat de València), Dr Christopher D. Tulloch (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona), Vicent Partal (VilaWeb), Dr John Geraint (Welsh director), Craig Willis (European Centre for Minority Issues), Cristòfol Tripiana (QMUL), Sergi Forcada (BBC), Ainhoa Paredes (Mediaset) and Coia Ballesté (CCMA).
