About The Book
Online Journalism from the Periphery explores how new media actors, enabled by digital technology, challenge traditional perceptions of journalism. Emerging from the digital disruption, these actors have faced resistance from the established core of journalism, who view them as part of a 'digital threat' and dismiss their contributions to the journalistic field.
Using field theory as a conceptual framework, Scott Eldridge navigates the tensions between the established core of journalism and the emerging periphery. The book delves into how the traditional definitions and narratives of journalism have been dominated by a limited set of expectations and how these have been disrupted by new media giants like Gawker, Reddit, Breitbart, and WikiLeaks.
This book encourages a rethinking of what journalism is in the digital age and challenges the conventional views on the boundaries of journalism. It concludes by offering alternative approaches to evaluating the role and contributions of emerging media entities, urging a broader understanding of journalism's place in modern society.
