The Oxford Encyclopedia of Journalism Studies
"Journalism is a field in tremendous flux; social, cultural, economic, and technological change is transforming every aspect of journalism, from its production and distribution to its textual forms and reception. The Oxford Encyclopedia of Journalism Studies offers authoritative reviews of state-of-the-art research on a wide range of topics related to the current state of journalism. Leading scholars from across the world present historically grounded and internationally oriented reviews on enduring topics in journalism studies (e.g. the role of journalism in the political process, in democracies as well as authoritarian states) alongside overviews of scholarship on new phenomena and recent developments (e.g. the increased role of algorithms in news production and consumption, and the phenomenon of "fake news"). The Oxford Encyclopedia of Journalism Studies is an indispensable tool for scholars, students, and professionals seeking research-based knowledge about the contemporary news media landscape"--
Journalism Research that Matters
It is now well-established that the long-time economic model on which the news industry has relied is no longer sustainable. Facebook, Google, and declining levels of popular trust in the media have been major contributors to this situation. Simultaneously, the closure of local media outlets across the country has left many areas without access to regional news, compounded the distance between media and publics, and further eroded civic engagement. Despite the looming crisis in journalism, a research-practice gap plagues the news industry.This book argues that an underappreciated factor in the news crisis is a potentially symbiotic relationship between journalism studies and the industry tha...
Survival Is Success
The economics of online news today are as challenging for new entrants as they are for industry incumbents. Though internet use and online advertising is growing rapidly across Europe, it is not clear that this alone will provide the basis for new forms of journalism. Analysis of some of the most promising new journalistic ventures shows that even the most innovative enterprises can find it as difficult to break even online as their most conservative legacy media counterparts do.That is the message of a new RISJ Challenge published today, written by the Italian journalist Nicola Bruno and the Reuters Institute Research Fellow Rasmus Kleis Nielsen. The report is the first to systematically assess how journalistic online start-ups are doing across Western Europe. Based on analysis of nine strategically chosen cases from Germany, France, and Italy-including prominent pure players like Netzeitung, MediaPart, and Lettera43-it shows that the start-up scene in Europe is still at a stage where survival must been seen as a form of success in itself
Innovators in Digital News
News organisations are struggling with technology transitions and fearful for their future. Yet some organisations are succeeding. Why are organisations such as Vice and BuzzFeed investing in journalism and why are pedigree journalists joining them? Why are news organisations making journalists redundant but recruiting technologists? Why does everyone seem to be embracing native advertising? Why are some news organisations more innovative than others? Drawing on extensive first-hand research this book explains how different international media organisations approach digital news and pinpoints the common organisational factors that help build their success.
Women and Journalism
In many countries, the majority of high profile journalists and editors remain male. Although there have been considerable changes in the prospects for women working in the media in the past few decades, women are still noticeably in the minority in the top journalistic roles, despite making up the majority of journalism students. In this book, Suzanne Franks looks at the key issues surrounding female journalists - from on-screen sexism and ageism to the dangers facing female foreign correspondents reporting from war zones. She also analyses the way that the changing digital media have present.

Journalism
In this new edition of the Very Short Introduction to Journalism, Ian Hargreaves considers the role and place of journalism in our constantly evolving digital world. Exploring issues relating to privacy, democracy, the entertainment industry, and global social media, Hargreaves explores the shape and influence of journalism in years to come.
Climate Change in the Media
"Recent research has shown that the journalistic portrayal of the problems of climate change as 'risks' rather than 'uncertainties' can create a stronger response from the public in terms of engagement and understanding. Understanding the concepts of risk and uncertainty -- and how to communicate them -- is a hotly debated issue across the scientific, management and policy-making communities. In this book, James Painter analyses how the international media present the two issues of risk and uncertainty. He focuses on the coverage of recent projections of global temperatures and of the melting ice of the Arctic Sea, and includes six countries, Australia, France, India, Norway, the UK and the USA"--Provided by publisher.
