Radio News: Radio Coverage of Local Elections in 2018 in Selected Radio Stations in the First Hour After the Closing of Polls. Comparative Analysis

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of a comparative analysis of radio coverage of local elections in Poland at the end of the first round of elections in October 2018. Four radio stations (RMF FM, Radio ZET, Polskie Radio, TOK FM) were taken under consideration in the comparative analysis of radio broadcasts which allowed the author to determine the most important differences in delivering the latest news, in the content of radio programs and in the way the radio stations approached the subject. The recordings of one-hour programs, broadcasted in four selected radio stations in the first hour after the polls closed, became the research material which allowed the author to accurately calculate the speed of the broadcasts, examine the journalistic and technical capabilities of each station, outline various models of coverage of elections, and specific categories as well. For example, presidents of the largest cities, regional councils, voter turnout, and radio reporters based in campaign offices to name a few. This allowed the author to demonstrate the main differences between various stations in their elections coverage.
