“The Paradox of Connection shows strikingly how professional journalists negotiate with the promises and perils of the connected world and walk the line between personal branding, organizational pressures, and private life. The book provides a compelling snapshot of how journalists fine-tune their connectivity and offers tools for us all to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of living online. Social media tools have revolutionized journalism. Yet professional pressure to live online, online abuse and harassment, and increasingly precarious and unpaid labor have gone hand in hand with people in the trade mediating ever more complex forms of online communication.”--Tero Karppi, author of Disconnect: Facebook’s Affective Bonds
