Introduction to the Special Issue: Meeting the Digital Demand through a Multi-Perspective Methodological Approach

ABSTRACT This introduction to the special issue makes the argument that, in order to understand journalistic production and consumption in an increasingly complex digital world, journalism studies must employ research designs that combine methods from different academic perspectives and disciplines.
