Visual Cultures of Journalism : A Contribution to a Better Understanding of Journalism Cultures

• Visual culture continues to be seen as peripheral to journalism, despite the centrality of image flows and visual technologies in both the private and public spheres of contemporary media. This chapter addresses this lacuna, first by elaborating central concepts and theoretical tents from the field of visual culture, and then by suggesting how they can contribute to a better understanding of the cultures of journalism, viewed both historically and in the present media environment
