political reporting |

Reporting from a diplomatic mission to the ministry of foreign affairs on the local political scene which is not related to a specific negotiation. Once one of the chief diplomatic (and often consular) tasks, political reporting came under attack with the late-twentieth-century explosion in the number and speed of alternative sources of information on world events, including most recently the internet. Nevertheless, states need political information on subjects which may not attract media attention or which are not penetrable by the media; they also need information presented in the context of specific policy analysis or recommendations – and they need to be certain that all of the information which they receive, including that on subjects which does attract media attention, is accurate. As a result, political reporting by embassies and consulates continues to be of considerable value and is unlikely to disappear. |
