Digital Journalism (Studies): An Agenda for the Future

Digital Journalism has an important role to play in encouraging and publishing research with societal relevance that advances digital journalism studies as a field. In this article we discuss the multiple types of articles we publish: research articles, conceptual articles, review articles, advancing methods articles and commentaries. We also introduce you to several great examples of such articles, as well as introduce the growing number of articles that have received outstanding article awards over the years. Finally, we present our revised editorial agenda that will guide our priorities for the editorial processing of article submissions in the year(s) to come. The editorial agenda consists of five key thematic areas, each featuring carefully selected bullet points outlining our key research priorities. We set the context for each of these thematic areas by positioning them in relation to some of the research we have published in recent years.
