“…Groot Kormelink and Costera Meijer (2014: 167) argue that user-engaging storytelling formats are preferred to factual news reports on social media because ‘the audience demands good storytelling’. Also, editors prefer to post such content on social media that affects as many users as possible to maximize engagement (Neuberger et al, 2014: 53). Lischka and Werning (2017) show an up to 20 percent higher share of human-interest topics in the Facebook posts compared to the print editions of German regional news outlets at the expense of hard news.…”

“…The interview guide examined information about the individual social media editor (job title, background, and responsibilities), newsroom organization, social media strategy, and goals (e.g. to gain new users, enable audience engagement, and to get traffic on the news outlet's website, see Neuberger et al, 2014). The second part addressed the selection, editing, and posting process for social media news, differences between online and social media news, and the functions of social media algorithms.…”

“…The questionnaire was developed based on the interview findings and previous research and asked about the importance of various social media channels for the news outlet that the social media editor works for, the strategic goals that the social media channels fulfill (Neuberger et al, 2014), audience metrics that are observed (Cherubini and Nielsen, 2016), the selection process, and the editing process for Facebook news posts, including the value of news factors discussed in Study 1. Answer categories and statements were formulated based on the answers of interviewees of Study 1.…”

Logics in social media news making: How social media editors marry the Facebook logic with journalistic standards

News decisions of social media editors shape the news supply on social media channels such as Facebook. This study assesses based on qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey of social media editors in two social-media-savvy European countries, Finland and Switzerland, how Facebook's News Feed algorithm, Facebook users, journalistic standards, and the news brand determine social media news making. Results show that social media editors evaluate the news factors emotions and surprise as more important for Facebook news than for online news. Social media editors accentuate emotional and surprising story elements in a post to comply with user preferences and the logic of the News Feed algorithm. Thus, news values and news editing have become more user engagement driven. Yet traditional journalistic standards and the news brand characteristics set boundaries to a heavy user engagement orientation. Social media editors estimate that their outlet's news supply on Facebook is higher for entertaining news and lower for foreign politics and economic news stories. But they strive for a "good mix" of news adhering to both the Facebook logic and professional journalistic standards.

“…A clear separation of traditional (online) news media and social media is not possible given that journalists often rely on social media as a news source and use social media themselves as a platform for the dissemination of news and information (Broersma & Graham, 2012). A German newsroom survey showed that Twitter has become an important channel for the monitoring of prominent sources (Neuberger, Langenohl, & Nuernbergk, 2014). Here, politicians could provide journalists with quotable “soundbites” up to a maximum of 140 characters (Adi, Erickson, & Lilleker, 2014).…”

This article examines how Members of the German Bundestag (MdBs) used Twitter in the context of the country's 2013 federal elections. In particular, we explore the dynamics in the MdBs' use of Twitter during different periods of the electoral term: How do the tweeting habits of MdBs differ by party before and during the election campaign in (a) public versus personal communication and (b) campaign versus policy messages? How are the selection of interaction partners, centralization on leading actors, and reciprocity of the MdBs' Twitter networks affected by election campaigning? We address these questions by conducting a content analysis combined with a network analysis of interaction patterns. The comparative application of both methods explains the differences of MdBs' networks. The comparison clearly exhibits election campaign-driven changes related to the amount of activity and the character of tweeted messages. During the campaign period, MdBs' tweets clearly discussed specific policies less than before. Tweeting about one's personal life occurred also less frequently in the final campaign stage. Instead, the MdBs mainly complement other forms of election campaigning through a vivid metacommunication on campaign developments. Network relations reflect these variations and were less often reciprocated in proximity to the election and showed a higher degree of group homophily. We also found a substantial representation of print and broadcast media actors in the examined @reply networks. It is likely that these interactions and conversations with journalists are part of an MdB's individual performance of "news management."

“…Furthermore, these values are not just accepted within the industry, but are also connected to the sense of quality within societies from a recipients' perspective (e.g. Gladney & Ehrlich, 1996, or Neuberger, 2012. Journalism therefore seems to be an occupation, which attracts individuals who at least to some extent feel committed to such values attributed to journalism.…”

Metaphors of Occupational Identity: Traces of a Changeable Workplace in Journalism

According to Social Identity Theory individuals' identity consists of a personal identity and (several) social identities. Social identities often manifest themselves in jobs and occupations (i.e. occupational identities). When organizations or industries change, employees face new requirements and unknown situations. In identity negotiation occupational identity and specific situations influence each other. This co-constitutive interdependency allows employees to make sense of a changeable work environment. In this paper we propose the approach to work with metaphors to investigate occupational identity. We develop a methodic approach and explore the question how metaphors named by journalists reflect their occupational identity in a changeable work environment.
