TikTok Journalism: News, Media, and Journalists in the Short Video Era<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The book TikTok Journalism: News, Media, and Journalists in the Short Video Era<\/a><\/em> has recently been published by Peter Lang. This collective work compiles international research and perspectives on the evolution and challenges of news and journalism on TikTok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TikTok has become an increasingly central platform in the contemporary media landscape, transforming how news is produced, distributed, and consumed. As media platformization advances, news organizations and journalists are adapting to an environment shaped by algorithmic recommendations, virality, platform affordances, emerging formats, trends, and new forms of audience engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The volume includes 31 chapters authored by 58 scholars from 15 countries, and is organized into five thematic sections: understanding and researching TikTok journalism; news media outlets; journalists; audiences and the public sphere; and information disorders and fact-checking. The book features a foreword by Claudia Mellado, professor and researcher at the Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, and includes endorsements from Seth C. Lewis, of the University of Virginia, and Edson Tandoc, of the Nanyang Technological University Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book is edited by Jorge V\u00e1zquez-Herrero<\/a>, Mar\u00eda-Cruz Negreira-Rey<\/a>, and Ana-Isabel Rodr\u00edguez-V\u00e1zquez<\/a>, with the support of the Novos Medios research group from Universidade de Santiago de Compostela.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018TikTok Journalism\u2019 is now available through Peter Lang\u2019s website<\/a> and other platforms, and it will become open access within one year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
