The Changing Faces of Journalism : Tabloidization Technology and Truthiness

"The Changing Faces of Journalism: Tabloidization, Technology and Truthiness" brings together an array of top scholars who consider how contemporary journalism has wrestled with its changing parameters and who address how notions of tabloidization, technology and truthiness have altered our understanding of journalism. Organized into three sections: how tabloidization affects the journalistic landscape; how technology changes what we think we know about journalism; and, how truthiness tweaks our understanding of the journalistic tradition, the collection is introduced with an essay by Barbie Zelizer. Section introductions also contextualise the essays and highlight the issues that they raise. Contributors of this title are: S.
