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...
The Palgrave Handbook of Media Misinformation provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge resource on the critical debates surrounding fake news and misinformation online. Spanning all continents and linking academic, journalistic, and educational communities, this collection offers authoritative coverage of conspiracy theories, the post-Trump and Brexit landscape, and the role of big tech in threats to democracy and free speech. The collection moves through a diagnosis of misinformation and its impacts on democracy and civic societies, the 'mainstreaming' of conspiracy theory, the impacts of misinformation on health and science, and the increasing significance of data visualization. Following these diagnoses, the handbook moves to responses from two communities of practice – the world of journalism and the field of media literacy.
Drawing on examples from across the continent, this volume examines socially significant aspects of contemporary African popular culture—including music cultures, fandoms, and community, mass, and digital media—to demonstrate how neoliberal politics and market forces shape the cultural landscape and vice versa. Contributors investigate the role that the media, politicians, and corporate interests play in shaping that landscape, highlight the crucial role of the African people in the production and circulation of popular culture more broadly, and, furthermore, demonstrate how popular culture can be used as a tool to resist oppressive regimes and challenge power structures in the African context. Scholars of political communication, cultural studies, and African studies will find this book particularly useful.

Cette etude porte sur les veritables jeux et enjeux des relations culturelles dans le secteur audiovisuel africain. Avec un regard qui s'inscrit dans les Sciences de l'Information et de la Communication, l'auteur decortique les zones d'ombre qui entourent ce champ.Dans une reelle interdisciplinarite et avec une maitrise des outils d'analyse, Sahite Gaye pose les veritables problematiques qui interpellent les differents acteurs de ce domaine. Bien que centree sur le Senegal, cette publication est un veritable guide pour celui qui s'interesse au traitement de la culture dans l'audiovisuel sur le continent africain.Presque cinquante ans apres les Independances, plusieurs pays se posent des questions, surtout dans ce domaine. Il s'y ajoute aussi que cette polemique s'est accentuee si l'on considere qu'elle coincide avec une epoque marquee par les revendications identitaires. Au fil des pages, ecrites avec un style limpide, le lecteur s'impregne des realites du systeme de l'audiovisuel dans cette partie du monde. En outre, la precision, la clarte et les petits details traduisent le souci, de l'auteur, de bien rendre compte. Il se situe, un peu, dans la recherche-action.
