About This Item
Melbourne: Scribe Publications, 2012. Paperback small octavo, very good plus condition, minimal edgewear. 313 pp. Greg Jericho provides the first book to examine social media (particularly Twitter) as a new force in covering Australian politics. Reveals who makes up the Australian political blogosphere, and tackles how journalists and federal politicians use social media and digital news, the motivations of bloggers and tweeters, and the eruption of Twitter wars. The mainstream media's reaction to all this tends to be defensive and dismissive. As Jericho found to his own cost when he was outed by The Australian as the anonymous media critic and blogger Grog's Gamut. Journalists welcome Twitter as a work tool but they have to deal with vitriolic online comments.
