Rethinking Journalism Again

This second Rethinking Journalism volume discusses what journalism is beyond the established rhetoric among scholars and practitioners. For all their seeming self-evidence, what bearing do these platitudes have in terms of the actual social relevance of journalism in the digital age? How much affinity does this talk share with the concrete roles journalism performs? And what about journalism as a cultural form itself?
