Abstract:
Journalism is a professional practice and ideology aimed to provide information about current events that are considered to be important by a large audience. Within a differentiated range of content, the information journalism provides is largely regarded to be paramount for the good functioning of democracy. Due to its normative foundation, the journalistic profession was meant to be driven by professional norms that safeguard its autonomy and independence. For decades, journalism was prevalently linked to the work of the mass media (newspapers, magazines, radio, TV). The development of the contemporary media and platform ecology has profoundly been changing the traditional assets of what is considered as journalism. Today journalism includes a number and a diversified range of products, practitioners, and professional values that have enormously modified what may be considered as journalism. The result of this change is that journalism is now more than ever a profession whose jurisdiction is constantly questioned and challenged by many different actors.
