[ecrea] New Issue of Journal of applied Journalism and Media Studies

The /Journal of Applied Journalism & Media Studies/ is a peer-reviewed 
journal that aims to bridge the gap between media and communication 
research and actors with a say in media production, i.e. broadcasters, 
newspapers, radio, Internet-based media outlets, etc. It is devoted to 
research with an applied angle in which a clear link is made between the 
prevalent theories and paradigms media and communication scholars work 
with, and the real world where media and communication activities take 
place. It tackles issues and practices related to the output and 
organization of media outlets in our digitized age.

The journal has a particular focus on and interest in contemporary 
issues and practices of media firms as they are experienced by their 
actors journalists, executives, publishers and proprietors, among 
others. Besides scholarly submissions, the editors are interested in 
articles written by media actors focusing on topics including their 
activities, problems, strategies, guidelines, management and editorial 
issues, organization, ethical codes, coverage, distribution, marketing, 
handling of user-generated material, etc. The journal is the first 
scholarly publication giving due consideration in publishing to material 
by media actors. Practitioners, for the first time, will have their 
articles printed alongside academic papers within the pages of the same 
journal.

The journal's main purpose is to test and apply media and communication 
theories to day-to-day affairs of media outlets to help executives, 
editors and journalists solve the issues they confront. It is interested 
in research and studies that help media actors journalists, proprietors 
and publishers improve their output.

Editors, Leon Barkho and Ibrahim Saleh
