My new book – Media Change: Contemporary Cases, Consequences, and Conceptualizations – will be published by Wiley in June 2026. The book’s twelve chapters dissect pressing media topics, ranging from the role of AI and automation in news production to the intricate efforts by democratic states to curb underage access to harmful online content. These chapters not only provide insights into their individual topics but also serve as illustrative cases of broader media transformations. The introductory and concluding chapters weave together lessons about media change, exploring not only the “what” and “how” but also the nuanced resistance, uneven progress, occasional reversals, and the influence of non-technological factors. Pre-order at Wiley.com, Amazon.com, and all major online booksellers.
