T.J. Thomson is a senior lecturer in the School of Communication at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Australia, and a chief investigator at its Digital Media Research Centre, where he leads its News, Media, and Journalism Research Group. [1] [2] [3] He teaches and researches on visual communication topics, especially media representation, the production and reception of visual journalism, and visual culture. [4] He has been an officer in several national and international societies [5] [6] and has served as the associate editor of Visual Communication Quarterly since 2017. [7] [8]

Contents

Thomson has critiqued the field of visual studies as being inundated with framing approaches and has both spearheaded and led the call for additional research and approaches that examine production influences on visual content that extend beyond such considerations. [9] His work explores the human side of media production, such as the emotional toll of documenting trauma, [10] as well as how freelancers learn and develop with lessened or absent institutional support. [11]

In 2019, the Australian and New Zealand Communication Association and Journalism Education and Research Association of Australia jointly announced that Thomson was the recipient of the Anne Dunn Scholar of the Year Award, an international honor that recognizes excellence in the fields of journalism and communication. [12] [13] [14] [15] His 2019 book, To See and Be Seen: The Environments, Interactions and Identities Behind News Images, won the National Communication Association's 2020 Diane S Hope Book of the Year award. [16] [17] NCA reviewers called the book 'a signature achievement in understanding the process of media production and the ethics of photojournalism'. [18] In 2022, he won both the National Communication Association's Communication and Ageing Outstanding Journal Article Award and the James Edwards Article of the Year Award. [19] [20]

He has also received international recognition for his teaching, including by winning the 2021 Visual Communication Teacher of the Year Award from the US-based Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication and the 2022 Linda Shockley Award for Excellence in Teaching. [21] [22]

In 2022, the Australian Research Council awarded him a three-year DECRA Fellowship to study local visual news in regional Australia. [23]

Education

Thomson obtained a BA in communication from Chadron State College [14] and a graduate certificate, MA, and PhD from the University of Missouri School of Journalism. [24] In 2022, his first alma mater, Chadron State, announced Thomson was the recipient of its Distinguished Young Alumnus Award for "exemplary achievement and success in one's chosen career." [25]

Professional experience

Before entering academia, Thomson worked as a freelance visual journalist and designer for a number of news outlets and organizations, including The Associated Press, The Washington Post, The Huffington Post, and the Omaha World-Herald. [26] [27] [28] Corporate clients included QuickFire Networks, which was acquired by Facebook in 2015; Colorado Academy; and HotelTonight, among others.

Media appearances and research impact

One of Thomson's recent research studies, I "Like" That: Exploring the Characteristics That Promote Social Media Engagement With News Photographs [29] on visual social media reached more than 40.6 million people and appeared in more than 94 news outlets, according to data provided by Cision[ citation needed ]. The study's findings were highlighted in IANS LIVE, [30] India's largest independent newswire service, Xinhua News Agency, [31] China's biggest and most influential media organization, The New Indian Express, [32] Science Daily, [33] and Futurity, [34] among others.

He was interviewed in 2018 for a Business Insider article about the societal impact of social media use [35] and was invited to write an article for Crux in 2017 commenting on visual coverage of the Pope's overseas travels. [36]

His visual research has also been included on the reading lists for the University of Liverpool's "Research methods in communication and media" course, [37] Loughborough University's 16SSC357: Producing The News course, The University of Stirling's JOU9JR - Journalism Research & Analysis course, the University of Missouri's J8006: Advanced Qualitative Research Methods, and The University of Pennsylvania's COMM 246: Race and Gender in U.S. Mass Media course.

Media literacy is an expanded conceptualization of literacy that includes the ability to access and analyze media messages as well as create, reflect and take action, using the power of information and communication to make a difference in the world. Media literacy is not restricted to one medium and is understood as a set of competencies that are essential for work, life, and citizenship.

Agenda-setting theory suggests that the communications media, through their ability to identify and publicize issues, play a pivotal role in shaping the problems that attract attention from governments and international organizations, and direct public opinion towards specific issues. The theory suggests that the media can shape public opinion by determining what issues are given the most attention, and has been widely studied and applied to various forms of media. The way news stories and topics that impact public opinion are presented is influenced by the media. It is predicated on the idea that most individuals only have access to one source of information on most issues: the news media. Since they establish the agenda, they may affect how important some things are seen to be.

Uses and gratifications theory is a communication theory that describes the reasons and means by which people seek out media to meet specific needs. The theory postulates that media is a highly available product, that audiences are the consumers of the product, and that audiences choose media to satisfy given needs as well as social and psychological uses, such as knowledge, relaxation, social relationships, and diversion.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Communication studies</span> Academic discipline

Communication studies or communication science is an academic discipline that deals with processes of human communication and behavior, patterns of communication in interpersonal relationships, social interactions and communication in different cultures. Communication is commonly defined as giving, receiving or exchanging ideas, information, signals or messages through appropriate media, enabling individuals or groups to persuade, to seek information, to give information or to express emotions effectively. Communication studies is a social science that uses various methods of empirical investigation and critical analysis to develop a body of knowledge that encompasses a range of topics, from face-to-face conversation at a level of individual agency and interaction to social and cultural communication systems at a macro level.

The hostile media effect, originally deemed the hostile media phenomenon and sometimes called hostile media perception, is a perceptual theory of mass communication that refers to the tendency for individuals with a strong preexisting attitude on an issue to perceive media coverage as biased against their side and in favor of their antagonists' point of view. Partisans from opposite sides of an issue will tend to find the same coverage to be biased against them. The phenomenon was first proposed and studied experimentally by Robert Vallone, Lee Ross and Mark Lepper.
