Slow down journalism

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Decelerated journalism describes a form of journalism that contrasts the increasing speed of news journalism with decelerating .

The aim is to consistently avoid breaking news and striving to be the winner in the race for the first report of a message in favor of providing context and analysis.

A manifesto of decelerated journalism comes from Peter Laufer (2011). Megan Le Masurier's review article (2015) is one of the most important scientific works on decelerated journalism, from which the term has experienced a wide reception in scientific literature. In 2018, Jennifer Rauch dealt extensively with decelerated media, including the phenomenon of decelerated journalism.

The best-known magazines of decelerated journalism include Delayed Gratification (United Kingdom), ProPublica (United States), XXI (France) and Zetland (Denmark).
