1. NGO's as newsmakers

  • Journalists cite NGO's, NGO's cite the prestige at being in the "paper of record", which creates an iron feedback loop
  • NGO's hire workers, although the fault here is the danger of NGO intentions

  • "news is where the journalists are" -> "news is where the NGO's are"

    • good for both, it's easier for work on them

  • NGO's are inherently political, which allows smuggling of politics into news
