Historically, or so we would like to believe, the story of everyday
life for many people included regular, definitive moments of news
consumption. Journalism, in fact, was distributed around these
routines: papers were delivered before breakfast, the evening news
on TV buttressed the transition from dinner to prime time
programming, and radio updates were centred around commuting
patterns. These habits were organized not just around specific
times but occurred in specific places, following a predictable
pattern. However, the past few decades have witnessed tremendous
changes in the ways we can consume journalism and engage with
information - from tablets, to smartphones, online, and so forth -
and the different places and moments of news consumption have
multiplied as a result, to the point where news is increasingly
mobile and instantaneous. It is personalized, localized and
available on-demand. Day-by-day, month-by-month, year-by-year,
technology moves forward, impacting more than just the ways in
which we get news. These fundamental shifts change what news 'is'.
This book expands our understanding of contemporary news audiences
and explores how the different places and spaces of news
consumption change both our experiences of journalism and the roles
it plays in our everyday lives. This book was originally published
as a special issue of Journalism Studies.
