Reviews

In the early 21st century, most journalism is struggling to make money. Rather than simply lamenting this fact, Magda Konieczna looks at one of the most unexpected and innovative responses to the journalism crisis: the rise of not-for-profit news. Journalism Without Profit is a timely and empirically rich overview of a variety of new journalistic actors, as well as a subtle theoretical interrogation of the relationship between commercialism and public service. * C.W. Anderson, Professor of Media and Communication, University of Leeds * Is non-profit journalism here to stay? This book explains the financial and the cultural challenges of the future of journalism and demystifies one of the most important possible solutions. * Nikki Usher, PhD, associate professor at The George Washington University and author of Interactive Journalism: Hackers, Data, and Code *
