Trade Review

“This book explores the breadth of new dimensions crucial to understanding the implications of user-generated content today. While this kind of content has become commonplace, the blurred distinctions between it and citizen witnessing, or between witnessing in general and the processes of publication, are not easily resolved. The global case studies and dialogues in Eyewitness Textures constitute a particularly thoughtful and enriching discussion that moves beyond the familiar accounts of user-generated content we are so used to hearing.” Scott A. Eldridge II, University of Groningen and author of Online Journalism from the Periphery: Interloper Media and the Journalistic Field
