Presentation / Conference
ANDERSON, B. 2024. Together in the encoding-assemblage: a new materialist framework for examining knowledge production in journalism. To be presented at the 10th European Communication Research and Education Association European communication conference (ECREA ECC 2024): communication and social (dis)order, 24-27 September 2024, Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Journalism's broken monopoly over the production of knowledge (Carlson, 2017; Ekström and Westlund, 2019) has led to an erosion of public trust in professional journalism and a general "epistemic crisis" of the present (Steensen, 2019). Pioneer journ... Read More about Together in the encoding-assemblage: a new materialist framework for examining knowledge production in journalism..
