Envelope journalism

Envelope journalism

Envelope journalism (also envelopmental journalism, [http://www.radioaustralia.net.au/media/ontherecord/prog5.htm] ] red envelope journalism, [http://www2.hawaii.edu/~tbrislin/asiaeth.html Journalism Ethics in Asia ] ] white envelope journalism, "Ch'ongi", "wartawan amplop" [http://www.planetmole.org/06-07/indonesia-and-envelope-journalism.html] Dead link|date=March 2008] ) is a colloquial term for the practice of bribing journalists for favorable media coverage.

The term seems to be most commonly used in Asia - the Philippines Japan and Korea, Indonesia.

The term arose from the envelopes used to hold cash bribes, given ostensibly as tokens of appreciation for attending a press conference.

More recently, the term ATM journalism has arisen, to indicate the change to electronic transfer of bribes to journalists' bank accounts.
