The roles of lifestyle journalists
Journalists’ professional role conceptualisation contributes to a normative understanding of what journalism is. Current role research focuses mainly on journalism’s democratic and political function and less on journalism’s function in individuals’ private, everyday lives, despite the growth in such ‘softer’ news. Based on 31 interviews with Singaporean lifestyle journalists, this study investigated lifestyle journalists’ normative role orientat…
A Complex New Media Ecology
Guided by boundary work, this study aims to investigate how lifestyle journalism's boundaries are changing in response to the rise of creator culture. Specifically, this study seeks to understand how lifestyle journalists define and perceive new creators in their profession and what kind of boundary-making strategies they enact in reaction to such new actors. Through 31 interviews with Singaporean lifestyle journalists, the findings show that the…
Life After News? How an Online Community of Journalists Discuss Stress and Provide Social Support
Journalists have been leaving the industry in droves due to stress and burnout. This study examines an online community of journalists discussing their "Plan B" to understand what they identify as job stressors, as well as how they, as a community, discuss the health impact of these stressors. Guided by concepts of social support, we attempt to understand the strategies they employ to deal with the stressors. We found that the journalists collect…
Am I a Journalist?” Lifestyle Journalists’ Discursive Construction of Their Profession Inside, Outside, and Alongside the Journalistic Field
Covering Covid
Guided by the transactional theory of stress and coping, this study documents and examines how journalists in Singapore experienced covering the COVID-19 pandemic. Through an interview with 22 journalists, this study finds a variation in how journalists experienced covering the crisis, and how changes in their work routines shaped such experiences. Forced to work from home, many journalists experienced a blurring of work and home boundaries. An i…
Functional interlopers
Guided by boundary work (Carlson, 2015; Carlson & Lewis, 2019), this study aims to better understand where lifestyle journalists situate digital lifestyle influencers within the field of lifestyle journalism, and what types of boundary-making strategies these journalists employ in reaction to such influencers. Through 37 interviews with lifestyle journalists from Singapore, the findings show that the journalists view the influencers as functional…
It’s All about the Money
A consequence of the digitisation of the media is the rapidly transforming business models of news organisations. While many studies have looked at how news journalists and newspapers deal with the changing relationship between editorial and commerce, less attention has been paid to how this relationship has evolved in lifestyle publications. This study examines the extent to which lifestyle journalists from women’s magazines experience commercia…
The Practice and Presentation of Slow Journalism
Against the relentless speed-driven nature of today’s journalism industry, the notion of a decidedly slower type of journalism seems to be gaining traction amongst both industry practitioners and audiences. In direct contradiction to the ‘breaking news’ mentality that governs most modern newsrooms (Lewis and Cushion 2009 Lewis, J., and S. Cushion. 2009. “The Thirst to be First: An Analysis of Breaking News Stories and Their Impact on the Quality …
Doing Digital but Prioritising Print
Digitalisation has prompted a myriad of changes in the journalism industry. This has affected different aspects of news work, particularly in newsroom production processes. Though such changes have received much scholarly attention, most studies have focused on hard news and less so on magazines and lifestyle journalism. However, magazines and lifestyle journalism are part of the broader journalism field and similarly deserve their own investigat…
From magazines to blogs
Current literature examining journalism’s boundary work has focused mostly on traditional, hard news journalism, while soft news journalism, such as lifestyle journalism, has largely been overlooked. Guided by the framework of boundary work, this paper examines how traditional fashion journalists and fashion bloggers define their own professionalism and what that says about the negotiation of fashion journalism’s boundaries. Through a textual ana…
