Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
Mae Stephen yn croesawu cynigion PhD ym maes astudiaethau cyfathrebu a newyddiaduraeth wleidyddol, yn enwedig pynciau sy'n ymwneud ag ail-gylchdroi etholiad, effaith diwylliant newyddion 24 awr, neu faterion ynghylch cydbwysedd newyddiadurol, gwrthrychedd ac anrhandod, yn ogystal ag ymholiadau ehangach am berchnogaeth y cyfryngau a darlledu gwasanaethau cyhoeddus, ac astudiaethau newyddion cymharol rhyngwladol.

Ymgysylltu
Ymgysylltu/Effaith
Ynghyd â chydweithwyr yn Ysgol Newyddiaduraeth, y Cyfryngau a Diwylliant Caerdydd, mae'r Athro Stephen Cushion wedi cydweithio â nifer o sefydliadau newyddion a rheoleiddwyr cyfryngau i helpu i wella ansawdd newyddiaduraeth ddarlledu yn y DU. Mae wedi gweithio gydag Ymddiriedolaeth y BBC ac Ofcom, er enghraifft, ac wedi ymgysylltu ag uwch olygyddion newyddion yn y BBC, ITV, Sianeli 4 a 5, a Sky News. Wrth wneud hynny, nod ymchwil Cushion's fu adolygu arferion golygyddol a gwella safonau newyddiaduraeth, megis cryfhau canllawiau ynghylch adrodd ar y cenhedloedd a gwleidyddiaeth ddatganoledig yn y DU, Yn enwedig yn ystod pandemig y coronafeirws, gwella sut mae newyddiadurwyr yn defnyddio ystadegau, ac yn fwy eang gwella ystod a dyfnder yr allbwn newyddion.
Mae enghreifftiau diweddar o'r ymchwil hwn yn cynnwys:
