This is a case study of the advertising campaign ?Guld till alla? (Gold to Everyone) embarked upon by Spendrups Bryggeri AB in a bid to promote Norrlands Guld, during the period 2004.

Den journalistiska professionen har genom historien varit ett högaktat yrke som tillknutits stort förtroende från allmänheten. Förtroendet har baserats på en exklusiv tillgång till nyhetskällor samt journalisternas vilja att leva upp till de klassiska journalistiska idealen. I dagens medieklimat har dock allmänheten större möjlighet att själva ställa krav på journalisterna, i frågor om publiceringshastighet och medieinnehåll. Detta leder också till att arbetet med källhantering förändras.Studiens teoretiska underlag är baserat på teorier kring det amerikanska medieklimatet. Teorierna slår här fast att dagens medieklimat problematiserar utövandet av korrekt källverifiering.
