Routledge Theories of Journalism in a Digital Age - Routledge

Theories of Journalism in a Digital Age examines how journalism evolves within digital environments and explores fresh theoretical frameworks essential for understanding contemporary media. This Routledge publication addresses the interdisciplinary nature of digital journalism studies whilst reassessing established theories in light of increasingly blurred professional boundaries. Contributors introduce innovative concepts including de-differentiation, circulation, news networks, and spatiality to explain modern journalism practice. The volume provides theoretical perspectives that position technology as a fundamental element rather than merely a tool, offering researchers, academics, and journalism students comprehensive approaches to analysing digital-era journalism. Ideal for those seeking to widen their understanding of journalism theory beyond traditional frameworks.
