Abstract

Radio reportage – a genre in journalism mixing news, publicism, and art – has quickly reacted to social changes brought about by the epidemic. This paper aims to present the influence of social isolation (social situation, outside landscape) on radio reportage (changes within the genre). The research discussed in this paper is based on radio reportages that were recorded and broadcast on Polish Radio during the times of social isolation ordained during the pandemic in 2020. Six reportages, recorded by journalists affiliated with the Studio of Reportage and Document of Polish Radio in Warsaw, are analysed in detail. The paper discusses the changes that have taken place in the creative process in terms of topic selection, material gathering, and the realisation of the project.
