Innovation processes in online newsrooms as actor-networks and communities of practice

Amy Schmitz Weiss, David Domingo · 2010 · New Media & Society

Summary. This paper examines how innovation happens in online newsrooms using two theoretical frameworks: actor-network theory and community of practice. Through four newsroom case studies, the authors show how these theories explain which actors influence innovation decisions, how journalists negotiate and learn together, and what factors help or hinder the adoption of new practices in newsrooms.
