“…The majority of studies done thus far have focused on user-engagement on Instagram such as surveying social media users, while a smaller number of studies have offered textual and visual content analysis of Instagram news. Also, there are just a few studies on Instagram news, such as Eddy Borges-Rey (2015); Greer and Ferguson (2017); and Holiday et al (2019), that made references to news values theory, while Al Nashmi (2018) employed the element of newsworthiness in his qualitative study.…”

This study employs the news values theory and method in the examination of a large dataset of international news retrieved from Instagram. News values theory itself is subjected to critical examination, highlighting its strengths and weaknesses. Using a mixed method that includes content analysis and topic modeling, the study investigates the major news topics most ‘liked’ by Instagram audiences and compares them with the topics most reported on by news organizations. The findings suggest that Instagram audiences prefer to consume general news, human-interest stories and other stories that are mainly positive in nature, unlike news on politics and other topics on which traditional news organizations tend to focus. Finally, the paper addresses the implications of the above findings.

“…Instagram challenges "the authenticity characteristic of citizen journalism and amateur photography, as well as the realism to which professional photojournalism has historically subscribed" (Rey, 2015). By allowing children to take these photographs outside of the "performance" space, they can show their true selves and not the person they want others to see.…”

This major research project (MRP) works to develop a photography application called Glopal that creates an experience for children to develop an unbiased, empathetic viewpoint of the world. My goal is to help children develop their own, “voice, creativity, agency, and new forms of literacy in a media-saturated era,” while creating firsthand experiences of other cultures (Lange & Ito, 2010, p. 247). Their view of the world is based off of content that is rooted from colonial thinking, which is often biased and stereotypical. Further, by taking their own photographs, children are able to establish their own perspective of the world and foster their intrapersonal dialogue. Children are removed from the “performance” space of social networking sites and can show their true selves through the Glopal app. This essay shows how the Glopal app can be a new digital tool in the development of a child’s global citizenship.

“…When we review the literature, we present different articles about social media journalism (Borges-Rey, 2015;Maares and Hanusch, 2018;Wilding et al, 2018). In a study using the term 'Instagram journalism,' Instagram posts by professional photographers, as well as those by amateur photographers, were examined according to the dynamics of journalism (Borges-Rey, 2015). In another study, the discourse used in Instagram posts were studied structurally; and some similarities were observed with the vocational ideologies of journalism (Maares and Hanusch, 2018).…”

“…Başka bir araştırmada altısı amatör altısı profesyonel olan12 foto muhabirinin Instagram fotoğraf galerileri incelenmiş, kullandıkları görseller ile kullanılan simülasyonlar ile söylemler analiz edilerek farklılıklar bulunmuştur. Paylaşılan fotoğraflarda düzenlemeler/filtreler yapıldığında dünyanın aşırı tasvirinin yaratıldığı ve foto muhabirliğinin gerçekliği vurgulayan doğasına ters düşüldüğü belirtilmiştir(Borges-Rey, 2015).…”

Today, social media has become the number one news source; therefore, citizen journalists, news agencies, politicians, and various professionals often share news on their social media accounts, which changed journalism's face. Many advantageous features previously associated with internet journalism can be found on social media nowadays. With the inherent connectivity of social platforms, social media journalism started to be debated as a concept. Thus, news agencies enrolled in social media measurement sites to track their performance and started to share daily news on their social media accounts, which heralded a new era of journalism and new ways of operating. New types of social media journalism such as Twitter journalism, Instagram journalism, YouTube journalism, and more specifically, Story journalism meets the needs of the online social media society for information and create new venues that are predicted to expand soon. This study aims to investigate three news agencies which are known for their popularity in Turkey, in terms of social media journalism. In the research carried out according to the general survey model, the number of followers on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube accounts, news sharing frequency, weekly follower growth rates, and the types of shared messages of three news agencies were examined and compared in terms of social media journalism. Thus, it is believed that news agencies' attitudes towards the new journalism approach will guide future studies.
