  • Facebook's Newsfeed Changes
    LSE Business Review: Facebook’s newsfeed changes: a disaster or an opportunity for news publishers? Page 1 of 6 Facebook’s newsfeed changes: a disaster or an opportunity for news publishers? Social media and digital executives in newsrooms already have a tough job connecting their content to consumers via social media, but Facebook’s proposed changes in the algorithms of its ‘newsfeed’ are going to make it a lot harder. Social networks offer immense opportunities for reaching vast new audiences and increasing the engagement of users with journalism. The most important platform in the world is about to make that more difficult. Clearly, this is a blow for news publishers who have spent the last decade or so fighting a battle for survival in a world where people’s attention and advertising have shifted to other forms of content and away from news media brand’s own sites. They are clearly very concerned. Yet, could this be a wake-up call that will mean the better, most adaptive news brands benefit? The Atlantic’s Franklin Foer even argues that this is a good thing that could be the move that ends news media’s dependency on advertising and platforms like Facebook: “Facebook has just done media the biggest favor of them all. It has forced media to face the fact that digital advertising and ever-growing web traffic will never sustain the industry, especially if that traffic comes from monopolies like Facebook hoping to claim the entirety of digital advertising dollars for themselves.” I’m not going to argue that this is great news for news publishers, but blind panic or cynical abuse of Facebook is not a sufficient response.

  • Jeff Jarvis, “Before Trust in Media: Trust in Facts, Institutions and Each Other,”
    Before trust in media: Trust in facts, institutions and each other Jeff Jarvis Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism Graduate School of Journalism City University of New York Asking how to bring trust to American media may be the wrong question and perhaps only a collateral outcome of the real tasks at hand. To protect democracy and society, we must first restore citizens’ trust in facts, diminishing the influence of those who would manipulate information and emotions. We must restore trust and respect among communities so citizens might conduct civil, credible, and productive public conversation. We also need to restore trust in certain challenged institutions — from science to education, government to democracy. Then, rather than changing citizens’ attitudes toward the institution of media, isn’t it media that should change to earn back public trust? It is a mistake to view “fake news” and “hate speech” as commodities — like content — that can be controlled by media, technology platforms, or government. Our problem is human behavior. Data & Society’s excellent report, “Media Manipulation and Disinformation Online,”1 catalogues the manipulators: trolls, the alt-right, gamergaters, the so-called men’s rights movement. Their methods have much in common with Russian manipulation as laid out in NATO’s “Handbook of Russian Information Warfare.”2 Their motives are also similar: “Our media, our tools, and our politics are being leveraged to help breed polarization,” says3 Data & Society founder danah boyd. “Sometimes, it’s for the lulz. Sometimes, the goals are much more disturbing.” Sometimes, it is to bring down institutions, even nations. At the highest level, these manipulators attack truth.

  • Navigating the New Media Landscape
    IPI ReportProduced in Partnership with Uhe Poynter Institute Brave News Worlds Navigating the New Media Landscape Preface or the past three years, discussions about the future of the news media have centered Fon the decline of the so-called golden age of journalism and the descent into a chaos characterised by splintered audiences, decimated balance sheets, and the muscling-in of amateurs. Fearing that their halcyon days as the guardians of information are num- bered, many editors and journalists have engaged in collective navel-gazing, asking themselves: What went wrong? But is the future really so bleak? Is the decline a global phenomenon? Are we moving into a new ‘golden age’? And what does it mean for press freedom? To find answers to these pressing questions, the International Press Institute teamed up with the Poynter Institute, one of the premier journalism training centers in the world, to set out on a global investigation assembling an international group of editors, jour- nalists, visionaries and sceptics to discover how the future of the news is developing around the world. The result is that after a 10-year absence, the IPI Report series has returned, revamped and reinvigorated with a new edition entitled “Brave News Worlds”, a report that charts the exciting times ahead for the news media and uncovers the many different global perspectives thereof. Picking up where the IPI Report series left off in 2000, “Brave News Worlds” explores what the next 10 years hold for the news and journalism industry and offers insight into how journalists and non-journalists alike can take advantage of changes in the media and technology to make the future of news a bright one.

While the majority of that analysis is focused on national politics and news outlets, the role of local media and the crucial role it plays in civic life has been often neglected in the wider debate.

It includes research on past and present circulation trends for print and digital magazine consumption. Interviews of industry professionals were conducted, giving their insight into the development and consumer attitudes toward iPad tablet magazines. An online survey questioning subscription, functionality and general views of both tablet and print magazines was distributed as well as an in person case study that allowed users to physically navigate, observe and compare an iPad magazine and its print counterpart. The results of this study can be used to predict the impact of a recent technological introduction—the iPad magazine and its affects on the current and future magazine industry.

  • Behind the Search Box: the Political Economy of a Global Internet Industry
    BEHIND THE SEARCH BOX: THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF A GLOBAL INTERNET INDUSTRY BY SHINJOUNG YEO DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Library and Information Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Dan Schiller, Chair Professor Linda Smith Professor Christian Sandvig, University of Michigan Professor Fred Turner, Stanford University Abstract With the rapid proliferation of the Web, the search engine constituted an increasingly vital tool in everyday life, and offered technical capabilities that might have lent themselves under different circumstances to a sweeping democratization of information provision and access. Instead the search function was transformed into the most profitable large-scale global information industry. This dissertation examines the evolution of search engine technologies within the context of the commercialization and commodification of the Internet. Grounded in critical political economy, the research details how capital has progressively shifted information search activities further into the market, transforming them into sites of profit-making and poles of capitalist growth. It applies historical and political economic analysis by resorting to an extensive array of sources including trade journals, government documents, industry reports, and financial and business newspapers. The first chapter situates the development of the search engine within the wider political economy of the Internet industry. The second shows how the technology of search was reorganized to enable profitable accumulation. The third and fourth chapters focus on another primary concern of political economy: the labor structures and labor processes that typify this emergent industry.
