Abstract

Tijekom istraživanja nepravilnosti u društvu, novinari se mogu suočiti s različitim oblicima nasilja, a zbog svog rada mogu biti i ubijeni. Novinarstvo može biti izrazito opasno zanimanje, stoga je važno analizirati i razumjeti slučajeve novinarskih ubojstava. U ovom radu istražuju se četiri slučaja novinarskih ubojstava pri čemu je glavno pitanje kako je medijski sustav povezan sa stradavanjem novinara. Četiri slučaja novinarskih ubojstava dolaze iz različitih država i medijskih sustava - Nikolay Andrushchenko iz Rusije, Armando Linares Lopez iz Meksika, Daphne Caruana Galizia s Malte, te Ivo Pukanić iz Hrvatske. U skladu s glavnim pitanjem opisan je fenomen ubojstva novinara, a na temelju Hallinove i Mancinijeve teorije definiran je medijski sustav te analizirani ruski, meksički, malteški i hrvatski sustav. Primijenjena je kvalitativna studija slučaja. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da iako se prema Hallinovoj i Mancinijevoj teoriji analizirani sustavi mogu povezati s polariziranim pluralističkim ili mediteranskim modelom, oni se značajno razlikuju u tretmanu novinarskih ubojstava i većinski oslikavaju karakteristike svojih političkih sustava. Također, u slučaju svih ubojstava prisutna je određena vrsta nekažnjivosti, što ukazuje na potrebu za promjenama i uspostavom sigurnijeg okruženja u kojem novinari mogu raditi u interesu javnosti.

Abstract (english)

During investigations into societal problems, journalists may face various forms of violence, and they may even be killed because of their work. Journalism can be an extremely dangerous profession, so it is crucial to analyze and understand cases of journalist murders. This paper examines four cases of journalist murders, focusing on the central question of how the media system is connected to journalist killings. The four cases come from different countries and media systems - Nikolay Andrushchenko from Russia, Armando Linares Lopez from Mexico, Daphne Caruana Galizia from Malta, and Ivo Pukanić from Croatia. In line with the central question, the phenomenon of journalist murders is described, and based on Hallin and Mancini's classification, the media system is defined and systems in Russia, Mexico, Malta, and Croatia are analyzed. A qualitative case study approach was applied. The research results show that, although the analyzed systems can be connected to the polarized pluralist or Mediterranean model according to Hallin and Mancini's framework, they differ significantly in their treatment of journalist murders, reflecting the characteristics of their political systems. Furthermore, in all of these cases, there is a degree of impunity, highlighting the need for reforms and the creation of a safer environment in which journalists can work in the public interest.
