Digitalization and Meaning in Journalistic Work (MJoW)
This article applies the concept of work meaningfulness to bridge disparate literatures concerning journalists’ feelings toward their work. Highlighting the importance of both objective structures and subjective meaning-making capacities, it defines Meaning in Journalistic Work (MJoW) as the level of, and the interplay between, the structural and symbolic dimensions of autonomy, recognition, and a sense of belonging. The article posits that the s…
“Why do I have to read this book?” The relationship between knowledge orientation and motivation among journalism and communication students
With rising enrollment in Western higher education institutions (HEIs), studies show that fewer students are motivated by the intrinsic enjoyment of learning and increasingly express extrinsic motivations, such as the desire to qualify for high-income jobs. This paper examines the study motivations, knowledge orientations, and learning strategies of Norwegian journalism and communication students at one private and one public HEI. Through a mixed…
Flattening the and news
This article examines how platformisation reshapes topical diversity across news outlet types in Norway. Using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modelling and diversity indices on more than 220,000 articles from 22 national, regional, local and niche outlets, it compares content published on proprietary websites with that on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. The findings reveal a ‘flattening’ of the news agenda on social media. While distinct…
News media lobbying and the EU’s Digital Services Act
The formation of the Digital Services Act (DSA) in the European Union (EU), aiming to regulate platform power, provided a unique policy window to secure media-specific interests vis-à-vis platforms. This study investigates how Norwegian news media actors utilised the policy window. Drawing on qualitative interviews with 20 elite informants in Norway and the EU, the analysis shows how the Norwegian actors strategised to protect editorial independe…
Navigating Platform Dependency
This article examines how Norwegian newsrooms attempt to secure editorial autonomy while engaging with social media platforms. Drawing on qualitative interviews with 16 newsroom actors and two weeks of field observation, it explores how editorial strategies are enacted through everyday practices. Using a strategy-as-practice perspective, we identify four approaches to social media publishing – the Negotiator, the Preserver, the Adapter, and the W…
Enthusiasm and Alienation
Automated journalism is currently being implemented in newsrooms all over the world. This ethnographic case study of two Norwegian newsrooms explores how different newsroom groups relate to the innovation. Finding that editors and developers tend to applaud the possibilities of machine-written news while reporters are more critical, this study applies the concept of work meaningfulness to better understand the divergent reactions. The results sho…
Unpacking Value Creation Dynamics in Journalism Education. A Covid-19 Case Study
The physical closure of universities and university colleges due to Covid-19 has accelerated the digitalization of journalism teaching to a record speed. The pandemic, and the severe restrictions on-campus attendance, radically altered J schools’ value proposition to their students, turning the teaching of practical journalistic skills primarily into a forced blended learning experience. This study, through proposing a conceptual model for unpack…
