Interactive Journalism – Nikki Usher (Paperback / Soft Cover)

Hackers, Data, and Code

The revolution will be digitized. Emerging out of changes in technology, culture, and economics, interactive journalism is a visual presentation of storytelling that allows users to interact with the reporting of information. Today it stands at a nexus: part of the traditional newsroom, yet novel enough to contribute innovative practices and thinking to the industry. Nikki Usher’s comprehensive portrait of this new journalistic identity examines the impact of digital technology on reporting, photojournalism, graphics, and the other disciplines that define interactive journalism. Her eyewitness study ranges from the interactive creation of Al Jazeera English to the celebrated data desk at the Guardian to the New York Times’ Pulitzer-endowed efforts in the new field. What emerges is a richly reported profile of the people coding a revolution that may reverse the decline and fall of traditional journalism.
