Diving into Data: The School of Data Journalism at the International Journalism Festival in Perugia
In the past investigative reporters would suffer from a scarcity of information relating to questions they were trying to answer. While this is still the case, today journalists are also faced with an overwhelming abundance of data. In an age of information overload, to stay relevant to society journalists need to learn to separate signal from noise in order to provide valuable insights. Journalists need to be equipped with knowledge of the tools, techniques and tactics of working with data in order to derive maximum value from for their readers.
The European Journalism Centre and the Open Knowledge Foundation are pleased to invite you to the School of Data Journalism hosted at the sixth edition of Italy’s leading journalism event, the International Journalism Festival. The 2012 edition takes place in the beautiful city of Perugia between 25-29 April. Entry to the School of Data Journalism panels and workshops is free. Each workshop has a limited number of places and therefore registration will be necessary. Please note that not all requests to participate in the workshops will be accepted.

#Wikileaks report reveals #corruption in Lithuanian newspapers - European Journalism Centre
►http://www.ejc.net/magazine/article/wikileaks_report_reveals_corruption_in_lithuanian_newspapersThe embassy document dating back from 2007 further revealed that Raimundas Voishka, director of the Pfizer branch office in Vilnius, was contacted by the owner of Respublika, who offered to “kill” the pharmaceutical giant’s competitors in Lithuania. The price for the favour was set at one LTL 1 million (slightly over EUR 300,000), and the director was given two weeks’ time to respond. When Respublika approached him again, he rejected the offer.
The newspaper then started running articles accusing Pfizer of overcharging for its products and taking advantage of needy hospital patients and sick people.
Later, Respublika published an article claiming that Voishka had beaten up a child - he had, in fact, had an altercation with a neighbour boy - and sent the article to Pfizers headquarters in New York.
The Prosecutor’s office and internal investigations by Pfizer however cleared the director of any misconduct in the incident.

Lancement d’un site « à la #Wikileaks » consacré notamment aux lobbyistes de l’#Union_européenne.

►http://www.ejc.net/magazine/article/european_wikileaks_spin-off_launchesWe have all worked in Brussels for a while and have constantly seen, or heard about, documents floating around which ‘would be great if they could get out in the open’. People didn’t know how to do this most of the time. In our day jobs we did this, using our networks and contacts, but there were a lot of limits. Having personal connections with ‘people in the know’ means their jobs could be on the line if we revealed the information.
Brussels is a powerful place full of over 15,000 lobbyists who all impact big, international decisions. It’s naïve to think things do not happen behind closed doors (such as European President Barroso attending a Plastics lobby dinner – weird?).
This isn’t really for media as much as to help society, and perhaps namely civil society, get their hands on the right information to make their jobs easier.
