“…As the term 'sedentary journalism' (Baisnee & Marchetti, 2006;Jarlbrink, 2015) suggests, journalists today practice more online information gathering than conventional techniques. Similar terms such as 'desk journalism' (Raviola & Hartman, 2009;Van Leuven, Deprez & Raeymaeckers, 2014), or 'desktop journalism' (Deuze & Paulussen, 2002;De Maeyer et al, 2014) also refer to such distinction between online and conventional practices of journalism. 'Desk journalism' appears to grow as a complementary path to traditional journalism.…”

Online pressrooms are important for public relations practitioners when improving their media relations in a rapidly developing new media ecosystem. This paper aims to provide an insight into the journalists’ preferences when retrieving information from online pressrooms. In a mixed design, qualitative and quantitative data were collected from Turkish journalists. As the first step of the study, a focus group with 11 journalists was conducted to understand what the expectations of journalists of online pressrooms are, and how they verbally express these demands. These qualitative data were then used for the structuring of a survey questionnaire that was applied to a sample of 155 journalists. Results indicate that journalists were frustrated by the current state of online pressrooms. Journalists asserted that information-rich and skilfully designed pressrooms help increase the corporations’ credibility. Journalists designated visuals and news archives as the most important contents for an online pressroom. It is also found that journalists trust more an organization if they receive fast answers from an authorized media relations person. Furthermore, our cluster analysis revealed that junior journalists with more new media practice have more trust in organizations with successful online media relations.

The negotiation of competing institutional logics is relevant for organisations active in multiinstitutional domains. News organisations are active in the domains of democracy and business, and, through digitisation, they are active in the digital technology domain. This article describes how journalism negotiates competing logics of these domains, i.e. professional, market, managerial, and technology (tech) logics. Analysing n = 744 individual NiemanLab Predictions for Journalism from 2014 to 2019, findings indicate that journalism aggregates and integrates competing logics in a fluid way, keeping synergies across logics and plurality of logics high. The field of journalism is shaped by the competition of four logics: While tech logics induce changes in professional, market, and managerial logics, professional logics remain the dominant moral compass for journalists.

“…Applying Market-Orientation Theory to News Startups When investigating market orientation in the media, one must consider the unique characteristics of media products and services, which restrict the direct transfer of any theory to the field of media (Dogruel, 2014). Raviola and Hartmann (2009) emphasize the importance of adjusting business literature to the respective environment and news organizations in particular. First and foremost, media outlets have to serve audiences and advertisers at the same time (Wildman, 2006).…”

The media industry is undergoing major disruptions, which foster innovation but make starting a new business particularly difficult. In this instable environment, theory suggests market orientation being important for success. Based on four case studies of early stage news startups, I investigate processes and practices of market orientation in the media. The results show that startups generate market intelligence in various ways and, in doing so, prioritize markets. Most attention is dedicated to learning about users, while they put less effort into examining businesses and competitors. Overall, market orientation seems to have a positive influence on a news startup's survival and support innovation.
