“…and the representation of space and place in a mobile media world has changed for today's news consumer (Peters, 2012). News organizations have used distribution and business models that reflect an industrial age model (Küng, 2015) that contradicts with a 24/7 news cycle and information age model (Castells, 2000). As a result, a gap exists between news organizations and how they cover and distribute news to the communities they serve.…”

“…The founders of Bristol Cable noted that local media was under great strain tive Journalism. BuzzFeed is privately owned and, according to Lucy Küng (2015), has received $96.3 million in funding from thirteen different investors.

While academic research has mainly focused on how legacy media organisations conduct their general news production work, fewer studies have focused on specialised practices such as investigative journalism in relation to innovation and technology. Scholars, however, have observed that news production is increasingly taking place outside the newsroom. In this context, the present article explores the ways in which emerging media organisations innovate and adapt practices of watchdog journalism within their staffs and facilities. Its case studies include a co-op that seeks to engage ordinary citizens in production; a collaborative data desk that aims to professionalise a variety of actors, including local journalists, citizen journalists, activists, hackers, developers and media organisers; and a global tech company that seeks to produce investigative journalism with national but also global resonance.

“…Durante los últimos años, estamos siendo testigos de la transformación radical de la industria mediática protagonizada por el avance de las nuevas tecnologías digitales (Boczkowski, 2004;Pavlik, 2015), la difícil situación económica de las organizaciones debido a una crisis que agudiza y evidencia la obsolescencia de sus modelos de negocio (Carvajal Prieto, 2015a;Küng, 2015;Nafría, 2017), y los hábitos de consumo en flujo de las audiencias (Deuze, 2008;Spyridou et al, 2013), propios de la modernidad líquida (Bauman, 2000). Estas mutaciones no solo traen consigo cambios en el producto, los procesos y el área comercial de las empresas periodísticas, sino que también afectan severamente a su organización interna y, en un nivel superior, a la composición del conjunto de la industria mediática.…”
