Reviews / Votes
The most comprehensive book I've read on the issues facing online journalism in the UK. Digital Journalism manages to combine an understanding of technological and cultural developments with a commercial and political awareness that prevents it falling into the trap of technological determinism. Essential reading for journalism studentsPaul Bradshaw

Digital Journalism uses current language to tell the story of journalism in transition. Using historical context, contemporary examples, and relevant theory, Jones and Salter discuss the meaning of digital technology for the practice of journalism. Their approach is globally focused and examines how different traditions of journalism adopt and adapt to technological innovation, creating new cultures of journalism and redefining existing ones. A must read for students and practitioners of online journalism

Janet Jones and Lee Salter contribute an engaged and engaging analysis of journalism in the digital age that dispenses with the cheer-leading and the doom-mongering that all too frequently drown out more subtle voices. Their book discusses new and emerging technologies within the political, economic, cultural and social contexts that are so vital to an understanding of what is going on around us. Digital Journalism is highly recommended reading for journalists and scholars alike

Janet Jones and Lee Salter have condesed a vast array of information about the theory and practice of journalism before, but mostly after, the 'digital disruption' of media. The book leads with an insightful introduction that sketches out contemporary journalism as a practice with historically entrenched concepts facing transition... Most of Jones and Salter's examples are drawn from the UK media, but Digital Journalism has a global perspective, and Australian readers will be able to find some references to local cases... The content of the chapters is well sourced and referenced, and the book unfolds in a logical way... A comprehensive guide to the state of journalism, the book will be invaluable to students of journalism.
