[ecrea] New Book: Models of journalism: the functions and influencing factors

*New book by Peter Bro: /Models of Journalism – the functions and 
influencing factors/  (Routledge, March 2018)*

*/Models of Journalism/investigates the most fundamental questions of 
how journalists can best serve the public and what factors enable or 
obstruct them in doing so. The book evaluates previous scholarly 
attempts at modeling the function and influencing factors of journalism, 
and proceeds to develop a range of important new models that take 
contemporary challenges faced by journalists and journalism into account. *

*Among these new models is the “chronology-of-journalism,”which 
introduces a new set of influencing factors that can affect journalists 
in the 21st century. These include internal factors (journalistic 
principles, precedents and practices) and external factors (journalistic 
production, publication and perception). *

*Another new model, the “journalistic compass,” delineates differences 
and similarities between some of the most important journalistic roles 
in the media landscape. For each new model, Peter Bro takes the actions 
and attitudes of individual journalists as its starting point. *

*/Models of Journalism/combines practice and theory to outline and 
assess existing theoretical models alongside original ones. The book 
will be a useful tool for researchers, lecturers and practitioners who 
are engaged with the ever-evolving notions of what journalism is and who 
journalists are.*
