Photojournalism Disrupted addresses the unprecedented disruptions
in photojournalism over the last decade, with a particular focus on
the Australian news media context. Using a mixed methods approach,
the book assesses the situation facing press photographers and
their employers in the supply of professional imagery for news
storytelling. Detailed qualitative case studies looking at special
events and crisis reporting complement a longitudinal study of
sourcing practices around everyday events. Additionally, interviews
with industry professionals offer insights into how news
organizations are managing significant structural change.
Ultimately, the book argues that photojournalism is being reshaped
in line with wider industrial disruptions that have led to the
emergence of a highly casualized workforce. As a comprehensive
study of contemporary photojournalism practices, Photojournalism
Disrupted is ideal for scholars and students internationally, as
well as (photo)journalists and media professionals.
Now reissued and retypeset, this canonical book explores the role
of language and images in newspaper, radio, online and television
news. The authors introduce useful frameworks for analysing
language, image and the interaction between the two, and illustrate
these with authentic news stories from around the English-speaking
world, ranging from the Oktoberfest to environmental disasters to
the killing of Osama bin Laden. This analysis persuasively
illustrates how events are retold in the news and made 'newsworthy'
through both language and image. This clearly written and
accessible introduction to news discourse is essential reading for
students, lecturers and researchers in linguistics, media and
journalism studies and semiotics.
This innovative collection builds on current multimodal research to
showcase image-centric practices in contemporary media, unpacking
the increasing extent to which the visual plays a principal role in
modern day communication. The volume begins by providing a concise
overview of the history and development of multimodal research with
respect to image-centricity, with successive chapters looking at
how image-centricity emerges over time, unfolds in relation to
language and other features in global design strategies. Bringing
together contributions from both established and emerging
researchers in multimodality and social semiotics, the book
presents case studies on a variety of image-centric genres and
domains, including magazines, advertising discourse, multimedia
storytelling, and social media platforms. The aims of the book are,
to interrogate the new multimodal genres, relations, forms of
analysis, and methods of production that emerge from a greater
reliance on visual components. Refining and broadening current
understandings of image-centricity in today's media sphere, this
collection will be of particular interest to scholars and students
in multimodality, social semiotics, applied linguistics, language
and media, and discourse analysis.

Corpus-based discourse analysts are becoming increasingly
interested in the incorporation of non-linguistic data, for example
through corpus-assisted multimodal discourse analysis. This Element
applies this new approach in relation to how news values are
discursively constructed through language and photographs. Using
case studies of news from China and Australia, the Element presents
a cross-linguistic comparison of news values in national day
reporting. Discursive news values analysis (DNVA) has so far been
mainly applied to English-language data. This Element offers a new
investigation of Chinese DNVA and provides momentum to scholars
around the world who are already adopting DNVA to their local
contexts. With its focus on national days across two very different
cultures, the Element also contributes to research on national
identity and cross-linguistic corpus linguistics.

discourse is essential reading for students, lecturers, and

Semiotics.
