There is no doubt, journalism faces challenging times. Since the
turn of the millennium, the financial health of the news industry
is failing, mainstream audiences are on the decline, and
professional authority, credibility and autonomy are eroding. The
outlook is bleak and it's understandable that many are pessimistic.
But this book argues that we have to rethink journalism
fundamentally. Rather than just focus on the symptoms of the
'crisis of journalism', this collection tries to understand the
structural transformation journalism is undergoing. It explores how
the news media attempts to combat decreasing levels of trust, how
emerging forms of news affect the established journalistic field,
and how participatory culture creates new dialogues between
journalists and audiences. Crucially, it does not treat these
developments as distinct transformations. Instead, it considers how
their interrelation accounts for both the tribulations of the news
media and the need for contemporary journalism to redefine itself.
