  • Tech Giants, Artificial Intelligence, and the Future of Journalism
    Tech Giants, Artificial Intelligence, and the Future of Journalism This book examines the impact of the “Big Five” technology companies – Apple, Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft – on journalism and the media industries. It looks at the current role of algorithms and artifi- cial intelligence in curating how we consume media and their increasing influence on the production of the news. Exploring the changes that the technology industry and automation have made in the past decade to the production, distribution, and con- sumption of news globally, the book considers what happens to journal- ism once it is produced and enters the media ecosystems of the Internet tech giants – and the impact of social media and AI on such things as fake news in the post-truth age. The audience for this book are students and researchers working in the field of digital media, and journalism studies or media studies more generally. It will also be useful to those who are looking for ex- tended case studies of the role taken by tech giants such as Facebook and Google in the fake news scandal, or the role of Jeff Bezos in transforming The Washington Post. Jason Whittaker is the Head of the School of English and Journalism at the University of Lincoln. He worked for 15 years as a tech journalist and has written extensively on magazine journalism and digital media, most recently as the co-editor of the collection Online Journalism in Africa (2013) and as the author of Magazine Production (2016).

  • The Internet and Professional Journalism: Content, Practice and Values in Irish Online News
    The Internet and professional journalism: content, practice and values in Irish online news John O’Sullivan, B.Comm., PgDip. in Journalism, M.A. in Communication (research) Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the award of PhD in Communication Dublin City University School of Communications Supervisor: Dr Patrick Brereton July 2011 I hereby certify that this material, which I now submit for assessment on the programme of study leading to the award of PhD in Communication is entirely my own work, that I have exercised reasonable care to ensure that the work is original, and does not to the best of my knowledge breach any law of copyright, and has not been taken from the work of others save and to the extent that such work has been cited and acknowledged within the text of my work. Signed: ____________ (Candidate) ID No.: 98970011 Date: _______ ii Abstract Journalism’s encounter with the Internet has engendered a multi-layered debate concerning the place of established news media and its practitioners in public communication. The Internet and its affordances re-animate familiar themes in discussions of journalism, not least concerning power relations, gate-keeping and objectivity claims. In many popular and some academic analyses, so-called ‘traditional’ journalism is under examination because of economic forces driving the development of digital networked media, but also because the univocal nature of older media, with its enclosed culture, is considered at odds with the potential of a reconstituted public sphere founded in the open, interactive system of emerging spaces. This study, related to a wider European research project, investigates the inter- meshing of Irish journalism’s professional output, practices and normative values, as materialized online and as expressed in the opinions and attitudes of practising journalists as expert respondents, with the potentialities of the Internet.
