The Future of Journalism: In an Age of Digital Media and Economic Uncertainty

The development of digital media has delivered innovations and prompted tectonic shifts in all aspects of journalism. The collapse of the ‘advertising model’ and the impact of the continuing global recession have created economic difficulties for legacy media, started a search for new business strategies, and triggered concerns about the very future of journalism. This book is essential reading for everyone interested in the prospects for journalism and the consequent implications for communications within and between local, national and international communities. This book was originally published as special issues of Digital Journalism, Journalism Practice and Journalism Studies.
