In this pioneering book, Jonathan W. Hak offers insightful commentary on the authentication and interpretation of image-based evidence, setting out how it can be effectively used in international criminal prosecutions.
This book offers new insights into the crucial role of investigative journalism at a pivotal time of technological changes and upheavals. It surveys innovations and unexpected impacts of the field, from past and present challenges and what may be in store for the future of the industry. The book begins by exploring the increasingly investigative innovations in political and independent reporting, along with a comparison of the rhetoric and reality of a so-called golden era of investigative journalism in the past and the present. It goes on to analyse the growth of creative and sports investigative reporting, as well as the ability of contemporary conflict journalism to overcome surmounting c...
In the post-digital era, investigative journalism around the world faces a revolutionary shift in the way information is gathered and interpreted. Reporters in the field are confronted with data sources, new logics of information dissemination, and a flood of disinformation. Investigative journalists are working with programmers, designers and scientists to develop innovative tools and hands-on approaches that assist them in disclosing the misuse of power and uncovering injustice. This volume provides an overview of the most sophisticated techniques of digital investigative journalism: data and computational journalism, which investigates stories hidden in numbers; immersive journalism, whic...
This book provides an in-depth investigation of Russian online anti-establishment resistances in 2016–2019. Grounded in qualitative content analysis of the YouTube videos and social media data of opposition activist Alexey Navalny and his associates, the research covers the history of these communications, their tactics, and the impact on the Russian public sphere and peripheral electorates. Drawing from populism, journalism and digital media studies, Glazunova skilfully shows Russia’s digital public sphere to be a multi-faceted site with its own struggles, challenges, and unique communication strategies for political survival. An important and original work, Digital Activism in Russia reflects on the past, present, and future of such resistances in Russia, the central role played by digital media, and its relevance for the political activists struggling for democracy around the world.

This second edition of The Routledge Companion to Digital Journalism Studies offers a truly global and groundbreaking collection of essays addressing the key issues and debates shaping the field of digital journalism studies today. Journalism has arguably faced unprecedented disruption and reconceptualization since the first edition of this Companion was published.

This newly reorganized second edition addresses developments in technologies, data infrastructures, algorithms, and the bus...
Datenjournalist*innen verwenden für ihre Berichterstattung digitale Daten, welche sie verarbeiten, visualisieren und journalistisch publizieren. Rahel Estermann erarbeitet auf Praxis- und Feldebene, welche Expertisen, Materialitäten, Kulturen und sozialen Prozesse sich im Datenjournalismus verschränken. Datenvisualisierungen stellen sich dabei als gemeinsames Vokabular heraus, welches ermöglicht, in zweifacher Weise mit den Daten zu sprechen: einerseits zur Produktion von Erkenntnissen, andererseits für das Darstellen von Erkenntnissen mittels Daten. So werden die Prozesse der Neuaushandlung von epistemologischen und professionellen Kulturen in einer datafizierten Gesellschaft sichtbar.
Die Digitalisierung hat den Journalismus längst umfassend transformiert. Datenjournalistische Methoden ermöglichen Recherchen in großen Datensätzen sowie interaktive Visualisierungen und automatisierte Dashboards. Und der nächste Entwicklungssprung hat die Medien bereits erfasst: Künstliche Intelligenz versetzt Journalist:innen in die Lage, enorme Datenmengen zu bewältigen und Beiträge zu personalisieren. Welche Erfahrungen wurden bei der Arbeit mit Daten und KI-Systemen im Journalismus gewonnen? Was für Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten sollte man dafür mitbringen? Und welche ethischen Fragen sind relevant? Diesen Aspekten widmet sich das Handbuch in über 20 Beiträgen. Die Autor:innen haben den Datenjournalismus mitgeprägt, ihn in Seminaren vermittelt und wissenschaftlich reflektiert. Das Handbuch richtet sich an angehende wie auch erfahrene Journalist:innen sowie an interessierte Forschende.
This book examines how journalism functions among “synergistic effects” of climate change, such as compounded impact of severe weather, social and political responses to changing global warming, and the often-unfortunate results and impacts on our environments. The volume emerges as global communities attempt to address climate events already challenging for journalists to cover and the social and cultural outcomes associated with them. Chapters in this book bring together global scholars and media practitioners who highlight digital challenges in covering the complexities of environmental change, from climate deniers and facts to longstanding and new approaches to covering heat, disaste...
