Models of Science Journalism

Use of Model B: the contextual model. The contextual model seeks to inform
communities and individuals about science as it relates to their particular contexts
(Brossard and Lewenstein, 2010; Donghong et al., 2008; Kahlor and Rosentahl, 2009). The
purpose of a contextual model-based story is therefore to inform audiences about the
science as it relates to them (Table 1).
