Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book offers a pioneering contribution to the scholarly exploration of journalism on TikTok, a social media platform that has become increasingly central to the contemporary media landscape. As media platformization advances, news outlets and journalists have entered a space defined by algorithmic recommendation and virality, adapting to its logic, affordances, formats, trends, and audiences. This volume features 31 chapters structured into five sections: Understanding and researching TikTok journalism; News media outlets; Journalists; Audience and public sphere; and Information disorders and fact-checking. Bringing together contributions from 58 scholars across 15 countries, the book provides a critical and timely overview of the ongoing transformations of TikTok journalism. This book is the first in our field to capture TikTok’s profound influence on journalism worldwide. With a globally diverse ensemble of authors and case studies, TikTok Journalism sets the agenda for understanding how news is being reshaped by short video, algorithmic culture, and platform logics —and why that matters for the future of media and public life. Seth C. Lewis – Shirley Papé Chair in Emerging Media, University of Oregon TikTok Journalism is a timely and comprehensive volume that examines how journalism is evolving on a hugely popular short-form video platform. By bringing together diverse perspectives and contexts, the book offers a space for a much-needed reflection on what journalism is, what it should be, and what it could become. Edson C.
