This volume explores innovations in journalism: the goals and expectations associated with them, promoting and hindering framework conditions, and their social and industrial impact.Drawing on an international research project conducted in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain, and the United Kingdom, the book takes a complex approach, considering media policy preconditions and the social impact of journalistic innovation from a comparative perspective. The key findings are examined and presented on different levels: theoretical, methodological, and – as the focus – empirical.Having identified the most relevant innovations in each of the five countries, a total of 100 case studies are examined to explore the influence of these innovations on the quality of journalism and its normative role in democratic societies and to analyze which preconditions support or inhibit the development and implementation of the innovations in news organizations. The interdependencies between journalistic innovations and their media policy preconditions are compared in a system-analytical way – concluding with the lessons that can be learned from the macrolevel (policies) and the mesolevel (organizations).This insightful and truly international volume will interest professionals, scholars and students of journalism, media and communication studies, media industry studies, and related fields.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

​Die Redaktion ist bislang eine vernachlässigte Institution der Medienethik. Der Band begründet, warum sich dies im digitalen Zeitalter ändert: Weil die journalistische Marke als verlässlicher Informationsgarant in der Flut der digitalen Welt sichtbar sein soll, werben Redaktionen um Vertrauen beim Publikum. Instrumente, die redaktionelles Arbeiten transparent machen und die der Qualitätssicherung dienen, institutionalisieren das Gespräch zu Verantwortung und Qualität in der Redaktion und mit dem Publikum: z.B. Konzepte offener Redaktionen, Ombudsstellen oder qualitätsfördernde Routinen und Strukturen.

Was sind die Besonderheiten von Bericht, Reportage, Interview, analysierendem Beitrag und Feature sowie von Kommentar, Glosse und Rezension? Aufwändig recherchiert und überarbeitet wurden die Wege in den Journalismus, insbesondere die immer wichtiger werdenden Studiengänge an Hochschulen.

Der Band beschreibt die aktuellen Entwicklungen des Journalismus in der Mitte der 2020er Jahre und dreht sie plausibel um ein Jahrzehnt weiter. Unser Bild von der Zukunft des Journalismus entsteht aus zehn Trends, die versuchen, der Vielschichtigkeit des Journalismus gerecht zu werden.
