Drawing insights from nearly a decade of mixed-method research,
Stephen R. Barnard analyzes Twitter's role in the transformation of
American journalism. As the work of media professionals grows
increasingly hybrid, Twitter has become an essential space where
information is shared, reporting methods tested, and power
contested. In addition to spelling opportunity for citizen media
activism, the normalization of digital communication adds new
channels of influence for traditional thought leaders, posing
notable challenges for the future of journalism and democracy. In
his analyses of Twitter practices around newsworthy
events-including the Boston Marathon bombing, protests in Ferguson,
Missouri, and the election of Donald Trump-Barnard brings together
conceptual and theoretical lenses from multiple academic
disciplines, bridging sociology, journalism, communication, media
studies, science and technology studies, and political science.
