Journalism (Ethics) in the Loop
As news organizations continue to adapt to the digital economy, they must integrate technological solutions aligned with journalistic ethics and values.

A proactive and digitally-native approach is required whereby journalistic values are actively embedded in purchased or locally-produced technological solutions.…
Affordances for Sense-Making
Each medium of news delivery has a unique set of attributes that facilitate or impede consumption and learning.

Thus, product-related roles, previously considered on the periphery of a media organization, become more central and introduce challenges in their integration within traditional roles, processes and…
