  • More about Peripheral Actors in Journalism: Deviating from the Norm?

This book explores the rise of peripheral actors in journalism, challenging the authority of mainstream media outlets and highlighting their important role in holding power to account. It argues that despite their perceived role as "deviant," these actors demonstrate a surprising degree of ideological continuity in the face of industrial disruption.

Format: Hardback
Length: 74 pages
Publication date: 28 January 2022
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


The book explores the significant impact of so-called peripheral actors in journalism, emerging outlets that challenge the established norms of mainstream media. The author delves into the rise of these actors, highlighting their successful challenge to the authority of mainstream, legacy outlets. It questions whether what these peripheral actors do qualifies as traditional journalism and examines their motivations and importance in the context of journalism's democratic function of holding power to account. Despite their perceived deviation, the book argues that these actors exhibit a surprising degree of ideological continuity in the face of industrial disruption. Drawing on research from Australia, Germany, and the United Kingdom, Peripheral Actors in Journalism offers valuable insights for journalism and media scholars interested in alternative media sources.
