Description
Book SynopsisReveals why journalists contribute to the growing similarity of news - even though they dislike it - and why consumers acquiesce to a media system they find increasingly dissatisfying. This book offers an enlightening perspective on living in a world with more information but less news.
Trade Review"News at Work is a brilliantly creative and much anticipated study of the new world of news. Pablo Boczkowski takes us on a far-ranging exploration - from the newsroom to the business office, the reporter's cubicle to the reader's desktop - on which we get a panoramic view of the links between the production, distribution, and consumption of digital media. He already has a reputation for rigorous scholarship - this book is better than anything he has published to date." - Eric Klinenberg, New York University"
