Methoden der Journalismusforschung

Journalism research can look back on a long tradition of empirical research: Whether gatekeeper research, studies on news values, agenda setting or editorial observations - empirical work on journalism has had a lasting impact on research in communication science. This volume takes a differentiated look at the methods of journalism research along the phases of the research process. Basic methodological and methodological aspects of journalism research are considered, partly mediated by concrete empirical studies that deal with the topic of 'journalism' from different perspectives. Research designs and instruments of the empirical studies are presented with clear restraint in the presentation of results in order to sharpen the view for the methodological aspects.
