[ecrea] Cfp: "Professional sociability of journalists on social networking sites"

About Journalism, an international review in journalism studies is 
pleased to announce a call for papers:  "Professional sociability of 
journalists on social networking sites"
(Download full call in PDF here: http://bit.ly/16GQPLF)

Contributions may explore the following axes:
- Professional discourses: how do “social network” brands claim to guide 
the journalists’
professional practices? What journalists describe their use of SNS in 
terms of cooperation with pairs, sources and the public? What are the 
recommendations, appreciations, or injunctions of authorities, experts 
and media managers related to use of SNS by journalists? What do the 
charts of “good practices” established in each specific media, say about 
collective professional references in terms of auto-regulation by 
ethical and moral discourses?
- Uses: How do journalists integrate SNS in their everyday practices? To 
what extent ere these tools important in news and sources gathering? To 
what extent do they constitute devices for professional socialising and 
the raising of awareness in belonging to a group (for example, that of 
web journalists)?
- Players: Who contributes to the disseminating of a journalistic 
practice on the social networks, and where? Consultants, teaching 
organisms, media are also spaces in which the imaginary and use 
prescriptions form, and can be submitted to analysis and questioning. 
Who are the actors that contribute to the circulation of these 
imaginaries, with what trajectories and professional objectives? How do 
the journalists use the socio- digital networks as collaboration tools 
that go beyond the borders of the traditional newsroom?
Any other proposition, in relation to these three axes, that describes 
the evolution of Social Networking Sites and their uses in relation to 
journalistic practices will be examined.
