American journalism historian Kevin G. Barnhurst visits the Journalism Research Group 13 April to present recent findings from his ongoing research project on New Long Journalism.
The New Long Journalism Project takes measurements of news media content, including news reports and their visual presentation, to track the long-term trends in what journalists produce and what “news” means. The changes documented so far include more than 100 years of newspaper reporting, 25 years of network evening newscasts, 20 years of National Public Radio news programming, an a decade of internet newspaper sites.
