Abstrakty

Pandemia COVID-19 i towarzysząca jej infodemia zmieniły sposób pracy dziennikarzy, także w zakresie weryfikowania informacji. Celem niniejszego tekstu jest ukazanie zmian, jakie zaszły w tym obszarze, czemu służy analiza wyników przeprowadzonego badania sondażowego. Metody badań: badanie zrealizowano techniką CAWI wśród dziennikarzy znajdujących się w bazach Polskiej Agencji Prasowej, w maju 2020 roku. Otrzymano 316 wypełnionych kwestionariuszy. Sprawdzono, czy dziennikarze deklarowali weryfikowanie uzyskiwanych informacji (w tym informacji przekazywanych im bezpośrednio przez firmy) oraz czy korzystali z serwisów fact-checkingowych. Wyniki i wnioski: dokładniejsza weryfikacja informacji pochodzących z różnych źródeł rzeczywiście miała miejsce, jednak stosunek dziennikarzy do fact-checkingu nie zmienił się. Oryginalność/wartość poznawcza: wartość poznawcza pracy wynika przede wszystkim z oryginalnych badań, które zostały w niej zaprezentowane. (abstrakt oryginalny)

The COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying infodemic have changed the way journalists work, also in terms of verifying information. The objective of this work is to present the changes that resulted from the survey. The research was carried out among journalists. Research methods: The research was carried out in May 2020 using the CAWI technique among Polish journalists located in the databases of the Polish Press Agency. Three hundred and sixteen questionnaire replies were received. It was checked whether journalists declared having verifi ed the information received (including information provided directly to them by companies) and whether they used fact-checking services. Results and conclusions: A more thorough verifi cation of information from various sources has indeed taken place, the attitude of journalists towards fact-checking has not changed. Originality and cognitive value: The cognitive value of the work lies primarily in the original research presented in it. (original abstract)
