More DescriptionDrawing on current theoretical debates in journalism studies, and grounded in empirical research, Heinrich here analyzes the interplay between journalistic practice and processes of globalization and digitalization. She argues that a new kind of journalism is emerging, characterized by an increasingly global flow of news as well as a growing number of news deliverers.

The interactive connections among these news providers constitute what Heinrich calls the sphere of "network journalism."
