  • Am Rande des Journalismus. Rollenverständnis und Transformationspotenzial peripherer Akteur

    Open AccessFolker Hanusch, Filip Dingerkus et al.ARTICLEMedien & Kommunikationswissenschaft2026

    In den vergangenen Jahren hat die Entgrenzung des journalistischen Feldes dazu geführt, dass die Unterscheidung zwischen Journalismus und Nicht-Journalismus zunehmend schwieriger geworden ist. In der Journalismusforschung wird deshalb besonderes Augenmerk auf sogenannte periphere Akteure gelegt, also jene, die zwar oftmals journalismusähnliche Inhalte produzieren, aber nicht im traditionellen Sinne als Journalist:innen gelten. Beispiele sind Blog…

    Open AccessCornelia Mothes, Claudia Mellado et al.ARTICLEJournalism & Mass Communication…2025

    This study examines the perceived relevance and implementation of competing normative ideals in journalism in times of increasing use of digital technology in newsrooms. Based on survey and content analysis data from 37 countries, we found a small positive relationship between the use of digital research tools and “watchdog” performance. However, a stronger and negative relationship emerged between the use of digital audience analytics and the pe…

  • The different worlds of Google – A comparison of search results on conspiracy theories in 12 countries

    Open AccessGerret Von Nordheim, Tina Bettels-Schwabbauer et al.ARTICLEConvergence The International…2024

    Search engines play an important role in the spread of disinformation and conspiracy theories, accentuating the power of global platform companies such as Google to contribute to the digital (information) divide by providing search results of lesser quality in certain countries. We investigated this phenomenon by asking what kind of results users see when they search for information on eleven popular conspiracy theories (CTs) via Google. We analy…

    Claudia Mellado, Nicole Blanchett et al.ARTICLEDigital Journalism2023Cited by: 10References: 36

    The shifting role of journalism in a digital age has affected long-standing journalistic norms across media platforms. This has reinvigorated discussion on how work in online newsrooms compares to other platforms that differ in media affordances and forms. Still, more studies are needed on whether those differences translate into distinct practices, especially when examining cross-national studies. Based on the second wave of the Journalistic Rol…

  • Virtual Reality as a Tool for Political Decision-Making? An Empirical Study on the Power of Immersive Images on Voting Behavior

    Open AccessW Weber, Filip Dingerkus et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Communication2022

    One of the strengths of virtual reality (VR) is to provide a highly realistic user experience. How would VR's power of realism affect political decision-making, for example, when experienced by citizens before they cast their vote on an issue? We set out to empirically assess if and how voting information presented in VR would influence people's voting behavior, compared to the traditional text presentation format. In a 2 (format: text vs. VR) × …

  • Quelle Différence

    Geneviève A Bonin, Geneviève Bonin et al.ARTICLEJournalism Studies2017Cited by: 15References: 14

    Canada, Belgium and Switzerland are multicultural countries with several similarities including having French as a minority language. The trio also shares similar media landscapes, systems and approaches to journalism to those of other Western European and Northern American countries. These commonalities offer an opportunity to probe for the possibility of a language-based differentiation in journalists’ professional identities. Our comparative a…
