Opis

Providing a much-needed analytical account of the implications of interactive participation in the construction of media content, this book critically assesses internet news production. With the rise of blogging and citizen journalism, it is a commonplace to observe that interactive participatory media is transforming the relationship between the traditional professional media and their audience. A current, popular, assumption is that the traditional flow of information from media to citizen is being reformed into a democratic dialogue between members of a community. The editors and contributors in this volume analyze and debate this assumption through international case studies that include the United Kingdom and United States.
