A groundbreaking global exploration of how emotions shape journalism Emotion is no longer peripheral to journalism—it is central to how news is made, shared, and experienced. The Handbook of Journalism and Emotions: Theory, Production, Content and Responses redefines how we understand journalism in today’s emotionally charged world, bringing together 60 leading scholars from across five continents to investigate how emotion shapes journalism theory, production practices, content, and audience engagement. Organized into four thematic sections—Theory, Production, Content, and Responses—the Handbook covers topics ranging from emotional labor and trauma in reporting to audience reactions and emotional authority in visual storytelling. Drawing from sociology, psychology, communication, linguistics, and neuroscience, in-depth chapters highlight how emotional forces interact with journalistic values, ethics, and norms. Throughout the book, in-depth chapters respond to the growing scholarly and professional recognition of the “emotional turn” in media studies, filling a critical gap in media and communication scholarship.
