Abstract
Modern Ukrainian society requires journalism to create high-quality analytical materials that contribute to the formation of the socio-political position of citizens and influence the adoption of political decisions by representa-tives of government structures, leaders of political parties, public organizations. This, in turn, requires journalists to have competence, the ability to think critically, evaluate, analyze, and forecast. Creation of high-quality journalistic materials requires the development and application of the methodological tools of political journalism, the formation and replenishment of which occurs at the intersection with other sciences and through related fields of activity. The acquisition of this tool by a political journalist is the key to his successful work. The article is devoted to the actual topic of studying the methodological aspects of political journalism. Attention is focused on the problem of methodology, which has a close connection with the search for methods of political journalism. Knowledge and skilful use of techniques, methods and methods are the essence of the journalist's meth-odological culture. Its components are the general methodology of social cognition, the general journalistic method-ology, the methodology for obtaining empirical data, and the methodological basis for interpreting the information obtained. The author analyzes various approaches to the classification of methods used in journalistic activities. The defini-tion of methods of journalism can be decided only at the methodological level, which involves the generalization of already existing forms and methods of journalistic activity with all other forms of human activity. The article drew at-tention to the expediency of the transformation of general scientific methods of cognition and their specific use in journalism, the replenishment of the traditional journalistic arsenal of methods with new ones, the individual creation by the journalist in practice of his own methods, which later become generally known.
