A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

Public Journalism 2.0 examines the ways that civic or public journalism is evolving, especially as audience-created content-sometimes referred to as citizen journalism or participatory journalism-becomes increasingly prominent in contemporary media. As the contributors to this essay collection demonstrate, blogging and other participatory journalism practices enabled by digital technology are not always in line with the original vision of public journalism, which strives to report news in such a way as to promote civic engagement by its audience. Public Journalism 2.0 seeks to reinvent public journalism for the 21st century and to offer visions of how digital technology can be enlisted to promote civic involvement in the news.
