Journalism

The working concepts and named practices of news reporting and the news business, distinct from the academic theories of media effects grouped under media studies. Belongs here: named journalistic practices and eras such as yellow journalism and the 24-hour news cycle, the newsroom concept of gatekeeping, citizen journalism, and photojournalism as a journalistic practice. Does not belong here: journalism as an industry structure, such as a wire service or a masthead, which is an organization rather than a concept, or media theories that happen to describe news audiences, grouped under media studies.
