Corporate battles and guerrilla wars are fought on Twitter. Facebook is the new Berlin, home to tinkers, tailors, spies – and terrorist recruiters. We recognise the power shift instinctively but, in our attempts to understand it, we continue using conceptual and theoretical models that are not changing fast, that are barely changing at all, and that are carried over from the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJournalism remains one of the main sites of communication power, an expanded space where citizens, protesters, PR professionals, tech developers, and hackers can directly shape the news. Adrienne Russell reports on media power from one of the most vibrant corners of the journalism field, where journalists and activists from countries around the world cross digital streams and end up updating media practices and strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRussell demonstrates the way the relationship between digital journalism and digital activism has shaped coverage of the online civil liberties movement, the Occupy movement, and the climate change movement. \u003cem\u003eJournalism as Activism\u003c\/em\u003e explores the ways everyday meaning and the material realities of media power are tied to the communication tools and platforms we have access to, the architectures of digital space we navigate, and our ability to master and modify our media environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47471044067564,"sku":"9780745671277","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780745671277-journalism-as-activism.jpg?v=1775231148","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/journalism-as-activism-by-adrienne-russell-9780745671277","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
