| Popis: | The norms of modern, Wester journalism were shaped by the development of university-based journalism programs in the United States in the late 19th century. By contrast, the schooling of journalists in many European countries remained closely tied to the industry. In the 1980s, however, the US model - professionalization through higher education - began to diffuse. Over the past two decades, European journalism education intensified its migration from trade schools to universities, shiftting the disciplinary approach from craftsmanship to scholarship. This change continues to challenge journalism students expected to combine academic and journalistic impulses that are often at odds. Indeed, the relationship between journalism and academia is laden with tension. Nevertheless, European journalism educators may again look across the Atlantic in order to mend this conflict. Today, inherent overlaps between journalism and academic practices like ethnography are utilized in American programs. Based on fieldwork in the United States, this paper offers an empirical study of ethnography in journalism education. Tracing the epistemic clashes between journalism and academia and showing how they are encountered in praxis, this article reveals how these conflicts are navigated and negotiated through ethnographic practices.
