Book excerpt: Milestones in Digital Journalism sets out ten defining moments that changed the way we understand, produce, finance and engage with the news today. Designed for weekly use on digital journalism courses, these ten milestones provide a conceptual roadmap to understanding the subject while drawing on case study examples which help students home in on key markers in its history. Each milestone is selected for its impact on the nature of journalism practice, the content of journalism, the structure of the journalism industry and/or public engagement in the news. Milestones are defined as the key markers in the development of digital journalism worldwide since the 1970s. The featured markers are diverse and global, ranging from the first virtual reality (VR) screening of Nonny de la Peña’s Hunger in Los Angeles at Sundance Film Festival, to citizen reporting of the police killing of George Floyd in 2020. Written by experts in each of the areas chosen, this book offers an inclusive and de-centred overview of the field and an ideal springboard for further study. Milestones are a range of accessible textbooks, breaking down the need-to-know moments in the social, cultural, political and artistic development of foundational subject areas. This book is key reading for students learning about the history of digital journalism worldwide.

Book Synopsis What is Digital Journalism Studies? by : Steen Steensen

Download or read book What is Digital Journalism Studies? written by Steen Steensen. This book was released on 2020-07-21. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Digital Journalism Studies? delves into the technologies, platforms, and audience relations that constitute digital journalism studies’ central objects of study, outlining its principal theories, the research methods being developed, its normative underpinnings, and possible futures for the academic field. The book argues that digital journalism studies is much more than the study of journalism produced, distributed, and consumed with the aid of digital technologies. Rather, the scholarly field of digital journalism studies is built on questions that disrupt much of what previously was taken for granted concerning media, journalism, and public spheres, asking questions like: What is a news organisation? To what degree has news become separated from journalism? What roles do platform companies and emerging technologies play in the production, distribution, and consumption of news and journalism? The book reviews the research into these questions and argues that digital journalism studies constitutes a cross-disciplinary field that does not focus on journalism solely from the traditions of journalism studies, but is open to research from and conversations with related fields. This is a timely overview of an increasingly prominent field of media studies that will be of particular interest to academics, researchers, and students of journalism and communication.

Book Synopsis The Future of Journalism by : Bob Franklin

Download or read book The Future of Journalism written by Bob Franklin. This book was released on 2013-09-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of journalism is hotly contested and highly uncertain reflecting developments in media technologies, shifting business strategies for online news, changing media organisational and regulatory structures, the fragmentation of audiences and a growing public concern about some aspects of tabloid journalism practices and reporting, as well as broader political, sociological and cultural changes. These developments have combined to impoverish the flow of existing revenues available to fund journalism, impact radically on traditional journalism professional practices, while simultaneously generating an increasingly frenzied search for sustainable and equivalent funding – and from a wide range of sources - to nurture and deliver quality journalism in the future. This book brings together journalists and distinguished academic specialists from around the globe to present the findings from their research and to discuss the future of journalism, the shifting quality of its products, its wide ranging sources of finance, as well as the economic and democratic consequences of the significant changes confronting Journalism. The Future of Journalism details the challenges facing the press in contemporary societies and provides essential reading for everyone interested in the role of journalism in shaping and sustaining literate, civil and democratic societies. This book consists of special issues from Journalism Studies and Journalism Practice.
