Hartley, Jannie Møller | Roskilde University (original) (raw)
I am an associate professor in digital journalism. My Ph.D thesis examined Danish online journalism practices in the period 2008-2011. It's a media production study based on ethnographic field work in 3 major news organizations. Lately I have been studying audiences, focusing on news habits in the digital sphere and civic engagement. My latest research has been concerned with young audiences and social media news consumption.Before I joined academia I worked as a journalist and besides online journalism I also teach journalistic research methods, journalistic ethic, news writing, feature writing and investigative journalism.My current research projects includes: Credibility in the news across media platforms, media plurality, online debating, quantitative mapping of online newspaper content transformation over time and audience construction in Danish newsrooms.

Based on a review of key studies of citizenship in audience research and political science, this study introduces a Bourdieusian perspective to examine citizenship in mediatized societies. We argue for two main advantages to this approach. First, it cuts across scholarly silos and scrutinizes the civic habitus of people as it unfolds across both mediated and non-mediated life. Citizenship is thus seen as a complex interplay of online and offline practices that vary for agents across the social space. Second, this approach is attentive to dimensions of social inequality and power, emphasizing how the many citizenship practices in the modern era are situated in a vertically stratified social world with a distinct symbolic order. Linking this to the concepts of symbolic power and dominance, we develop the notion of civic capital to illuminate how certain forms of citizenship practices, mostly those available to the affluent strata, are elevated as correct expressions of legitimate citizenship, whereas others are frowned upon.

The study reveals five sets of heuristics guiding the trust assessments of citizens: (1) characteristics of media organisations, (2) old media standards, (3) context of use and purpose, (4) experiences of datafication and (5) understandings of datafication. The article discusses the use of these heuristics and the value that everyday life holds in assessing trust in datafied media. It concludes that, guided by a partial ‘structure of perception’ and enticed into trusting datafied media in the context of their daily lives, citizens may be highly concerned by the datafication of media but use them nevertheless.
