Investigative journalism and digital communication technologies in China
October 16, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am CDT
This talk, based on Tong’s recent publications, will discuss how digital communication technologies are contributing to limiting the space for practicing investigative journalism in China. In the current political and economic environments, the empowering potential of digital communication technologies is outperformed by the capitalization of digital platforms. A hostile political climate and the pursuit of profit have radically diminished the necessary conditions for sustaining investigative journalism.
