| Summary: | Using a framework of online connection and disconnection, The Paradox of Connection examines how journalists' practices are formed, negotiated and maintained in dynamic social media environments. The interactions of journalists with the technological, social and cultural features of online and social media environments have shaped new values and competencies and the combination of these factors influence online work practices. Merging case studies with analysis, the authors show how the tactics of online connection and disconnection interact with the complex realities of working in today's media environments. The result is an insightful portrait of fast-changing journalistic practices and their implications for both audiences and professional identities and norms. |
