Access journalism
Access journalism, or access reporting, refers to journalism (often in interview form) which prioritizes access—meaning media time with important, rich, famous, powerful, or otherwise influential people in politics, culture, sports, business, technology, and other areas—over journalistic objectivity and/or integrity. Journalist Tom Foremski notes that access plays a role in journalism due to the reporters relying on the access to influential people, such as CEOs, to keep their jobs.
