How does one become an online journalist? Where do online journalists work? What do they need to know: journalistic craft, Internet skills, online law? How do you write teasers?

This book is a translation of an original German 5^th edition Online-Journalismus by Gabriele Hooffacker, published by Springer VS, imprint of Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.
