*About the book:*

/Hacking Gender and Technology in Journalism/ addresses the question of 
whether journalism’s new digital spaces suffer from the same gendered 
structures as traditional media organisations, or whether they go beyond 
such bias.

This book offers insights into the challenges that women journalists 
face in relation to technological innovation, as well as the potential 
for developing strategies for empowerment that it offers. More 
specifically, there is a focus on the gendering of digital skills, the 
construction of gender in new digital spheres of journalism, and how 
these changes can lead to the disruption of gender inequalities in 
journalism.
