“…Algunos autores han analizado de forma más específica el tema centrándose en el uso de redes sociales concretas como Twitter (Muindi, 2018), Youtube (Reyes & Vázquez, 2020), Facebook (Welbers & Opgenhaffen, 2018) o Whatsapp (Boczek & Koppers, 2020) como canales de distribución de contenido. Dichos estudios prueban que su uso posibilita a los periodistas el mantenerse relevantes en el mercado de noticias, pero destacan cómo aún existen importantes desafíos en estos aspectos para cumplir el compromiso con la audiencia.…”

“…At the same time, new technological affordances introduce challenges for the production of journalism. Muindi (2018), for example, explores how Kenyan journalists need to juggle requirements for clarity, balance, and truth with the immediacy and spontaneity of communication on Twitter. Koivula, Villi, and Sivunen (2020) find that although media innovations present new opportunities for sharing ideas in dispersed journalism, they also introduce uncertainty in the creative production process.…”

Indigenous journalism, media innovation, and social change: A review of previous research and call for more critical approaches

2021

Indigenous journalism can facilitate the inclusion of Indigenous voices in the public sphere, thereby contributing to social change. Contemporary Indigenous journalism is in part facilitated by the introduction and diffusion of paradigmatic media innovations, including the Internet, mobile technology, and social media. Based on a literature review, we investigate how media innovations are understood to facilitate Indigenous journalism and find that few empirical studies directly address this question. Analyses of Indigenous journalism, reaching beyond the potential for increased access to media and for amplification of Indigenous voice, are lacking. Furthermore, little research investigates how the appropriation of new technological affordances influence the production of Indigenous journalism. Our review also indicates that while Indigenous political participation can be facilitated by media innovation, these innovations can also serve to reinforce existing power relations. We submit that more critical analytical approaches are required to investigate how media innovations might facilitate the potential of Indigenous journalism for social change.

“…In journalism studies, the research on diffusion has focused on single platforms, such as journalists using Twitter (English, 2016;Muindi, 2018), TV stations using drones (Ferguson & Greer, 2019), and on the adoption of major technological changes, including the use of computers for reporting (Davenport, Fico, & Weinstock, 1996;Garrison, 2001;Maier, 2000). It has been applied to the emergence of user-generated content in news (Yeo, 2016), the study of multiform change-including technological, relational, and cultural aspects (Ekdale, Singer, Tully, & Harmsen, 2015)-and the processes and influence of convergence (Micó, Masip, & Domingo, 2013;Singer, 2004).…”

This article details Finnish news organizations’ adoption of drones for journalistic purposes from 2011 to 2020. The theoretical starting point of the article is Rogers’ (1962) diffusion of innovations theory, which explains how new ideas and technologies spread in societies. The main empirical data for the study were derived from a phone survey conducted among the 80 most popular newspapers in Finland. The findings reveal that drone journalism in Finland has already diffused from a few pioneering organizations to a large number of newsrooms, including regional, mid-sized newspapers. Most of the newspapers are either using in-house drones, buying commissioned images, or using both strategies. The frequency of use was found to be much higher for those newsrooms using their own drones. Finally, the article ponders possible explanations for different trajectories in the adoption of drones in various countries based on the Finnish case
