The manifestation of factors affecting the construction of information resilience in an expert speech on preparedness Crisis situations create uncertainties that challenge societal function and security. Previous studies have found that in the future recurring crises will be more regular events than exceptions. Information resilience has been proposed as one of the ways to overcome various information-related threats and uncertainties caused by crisis situations. This study examines information resilience in the context of pre-crisis preparedness. The research aims to identify factors affecting the construction of information resilience in experts’ speech on preparedness. The results suggest that the key to building information resilience is a shared desire for effective future preparedness. The main challenge is a culture that does not accept imperfect information.

The use and selection of user-generated social media content, specifically tweets, as a news source has become an integral part of news production practice. Yet, the mapping and the extent of the nature of the practices in which news outlets integrate social media use is still lacking. This study focuses on the pressures of immediacy on the media ecosystems, i.e., as organizational practices of news outlets that make choices related to social media content integration. By analyzing a large corpora of news outlets that have embedded tweets, this study analyzes tweet embedding practices by specifically focusing on the concept of chronemics, conceptualized here as the time needed to embed tweets. Temporal constraints are particularly pressing for journalistic practices, given the continuous pressures of 24/7 news cycle. We ask two main questions: which types of outlets are quicker to embed tweets, and which types of users' tweets are more likely to be embedded quickly?

The gatekeeping literature has turned to look at the factors and practices that shape gatekeeping in the post-publication environment, i.e., after news has entered circulation. This article adds to the discussion and argues that news workers share gatekeeping power in the post-publication environment with audiences, platforms, and regulations. Further, this study extends the post-publication gatekeeping framework and considers it in the context of datafication. The article aims to broadly understand how (audience) data is part of editorial decision-making in news media from news workers’ perceptions. The current study was conducted by interviewing news workers from three Finnish news organisations. The interview data was analysed utilising qualitative iterative content analysis. Our analysis revealed that the use of (audience) data in news organisations increasingly shapes news workers’ journalistic decision-making processes. We found that news workers were ambivalent toward data (use) and that their reliance on platform data depended on the particular platform. Furthermore, when interviewed about journalism ethics, news workers only connected it with legislative issues, such as General Data Protection Regulation. Lastly, we could see that regulatory factors of data, i.e., legislation and media self-regulation, have power over news production and distribution. This study reflects how journalism (research) is shifting from an audience-centric view to a data-driven one, i.e., it is experiencing a <em>data turn</em>.
