Summary

Exploring the conditions of news reporting in today's information-flooded society, 'Observing News and Media in a Complex Society' looks into the strands of systems theoretical studies of the mass media, journalism and the empirical studies of inter-media agenda setting. Journalism is increasingly exposed to diverse perception and facing its selectivity observed by the public. Considering this context, this book focuses on the movement of solution-oriented journalism, which seeks a new way to answer the question "what is journalism for?" and invites us to expand our understanding of media's societal role in the societal process of problem-solving and meaning construction.
