This project focuses on climate change reporting, specifically examining the journalistic processes behind it and how climate change is covered in Belgian online news media. It aims to analyze the professional roles climate journalists ascribe to themselves, the freedom they receive from editorial staff, the selection of news and sources, and the pressures they experience from political, public, or commercial influences.
