A History

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Taking a contextual and historical approach, Journalism, Technology and Cultural Practice provides an accessible introduction to the various stages of journalism's adoption and exploitation of technology from print to digital.

This foundational text explains the cultural norms and practices that have developed within journalism, why the industry has evolved in the way it has, and what this may mean for the direction of journalistic practices in the future. Readers will examine key technological developments from printing, through radio and television, to contemporary digital developments, whilst also tracing the major cultural shifts empowered by these changes over time. Conboy additionally highlights how journalists have been actors in these processes and have had a central role in defining the culture of their practice.

Journalism, Technology and Cultural Practice is a valuable resource for students of Journalism/Media History and Journalism/Media and Society.

Rezensionen

'In this engaging exploration of the complex ways in which the story of journalism is interwoven with social and technological evolution, Martin Conboy offers an elegant response to the challenge of writing a history that captures both change and continuity without distorting either... Journalism, Technology and Cultural Practice is exceptionally well-documented and beautifully written, serving up nuggets of insight on virtually every page. The author's evident love of his subject, and his wide-ranging knowledge of journalism's deep roots, make this book an enlightening joy to read.'
