The 'Socially Networked' Newsroom identifies discourses of digital communication through observations of online and offline newsroom interactions, interviews, and text analysis to provide insights into how journalists use digital technologies in story production and the impact this has on their journalism practice.
Through discursive analysis of 300 hours of video-ethnographic material gathered in three newsrooms, the authors apply groundbreaking qualitative methodological approaches to unravelling the complex interactions of journalists. Incorporating a Social Media Critical Discourse Studies paradigm to journalism studies, they detail ways in which new technologies have affected both daily newsroom operations and the identities of newsworkers. Rare empirical insights are offered that enable a clearer understanding of the changing media landscape, the newsroom power relationships that emerge and the discourses surrounding the use of digital technologies that have become normalised in journalistic 'talk'.
The book clearly demonstrates how the techno-discursive architecture of the internet has not only impacted the production and style of news, but has also led to an acceleration of work intensification that pushes the boundaries of journalism practice and journalist identity. It will appeal to those interested in the workings of the contemporary news media and news discourse, and who are concerned about the future of news production.
