The latest issue of Ethnography (I should say, latest in my slow world, its from March of 2006) is a special issue (SAGE publications) on ethnography of Journalism, edited by Dominic Boyer and Ulf Hannerz. For those of you who long for a meatier analysis of contemporary journalism than “blogs are destroying conventional journalism” or “journalism is dead, long live journalism” then this might be it. One of the great virtues of it is that it has a wonderful mix of fieldsites across the various articles; it reads kind of like a SciFi World Cup 2012: Sweden v. India; Palestine vs. Ghana; EU vs. WTO.
