However, their impact on inequalities in news consumption, or the distribution of news exposure across the population, remains underexplored. We address this gap by analyzing how distributed access through intermediaries affects news inequalities in two dimensions: compared with direct access, distributed access shows a reduction in news access disparities among diverse demographic groups (first-dimension inequality); however, we also find that news attentiveness is lower for news sessions through intermediaries, and users who rely on intermediaries to access news exhibit less cumulative news exposure than those leveraging direct news access over an extended period (second-dimension inequality). Meanwhile, variations are observed among different intermediaries: social media exhibits smaller access gaps among demographic groups compared with search engines. However, users accumulate less news exposure over time when leveraging social media for news compared to search engines. These findings emphasize the two-dimensional paradox of news inequalities.","PeriodicalId":11166,"journal":{"name":"Digital Journalism","volume":"150 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149003578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While AI technologies enhance journalistic workflows by automating and augmenting content creation, they also introduce opacity in professional decisions, complicating traditional disclosure transparency norms and its practices. The paper maps citizens’ perceptions regarding disclosure transparency of AI use in journalism, addressing two key themes: (1) the practical information needs of news consumers about AI-generated content and (2) the specific rationales when exposed to (disclosures of) AI-generated news content. Through qualitative focus groups (N = 21), the exploratory research reveals a strong demand for clear, visible, and detailed disclosures about AI-generated content. Participants emphasized the necessity of including general source references akin to traditional authorship attributions, explicitly stating AI involvement - for example, a label such as ‘generated by AI’ alongside author and publication details. Visual indicators like logos or watermarks in contrasting colors were preferred to ensure AI disclosures are noticeable and not easily overlooked. This study contributes to developing more granular audience-centered, practical guidelines for AI transparency in journalism that goes beyond the mere ‘label’, emphasizing that effective disclosure transparency requires more than simply ‘informing’ audiences.","PeriodicalId":11166,"journal":{"name":"Digital Journalism","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149003575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite their influence, large-scale analyses of their referential and actor-related reporting characteristics remain scarce. This exploratory study investigates named entity networks in German alternative and legacy media, focusing on their reporting on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from 2011 to 2022. Using computational methods, we analyze news articles from 37 alternative and 98 legacy outlets, extracting named entities and constructing co-occurrence networks to identify distinct reporting patterns. Our findings challenge assumptions that alternative media inherently diverge from legacy media in their referenced entities. While alternative media exhibit distinctive network structures—such as lower modularity and higher transitivity—they also demonstrate substantial overlap in their choice of entities and patterns of media mentions. These findings suggest that alternative media frequently mention other media, which may reflect resource limitations and reactive reporting tendencies. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of alternative media by highlighting both their unique characteristics and shared practices with legacy media.","PeriodicalId":11166,"journal":{"name":"Digital Journalism","volume":"139 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149003618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet their position remains ambiguous. Drawing on interviews with developers in Danish news organisations, this study examines how they experience and make sense of work within journalism’s authority structures and meaning systems. I conceptualise developers’ position as simultaneously essential and peripheral: operationally indispensable yet marginal within the hierarchies that define priorities. This peripherality unfolds across three dimensions. Structurally, developers enjoy autonomy in execution but face constrained agency due to exclusion from decision-making and reactive organisational practices. Symbolically, their expertise lacks legitimacy within a profession centred on editorial authority, reducing opportunities for professional recognition. Relationally, siloed communication reinforces boundaries between technical and editorial domains and limits cross-functional understanding. These dynamics keep developers at the periphery and narrow the space in which their work feels valued and meaningful. Despite these constraints, emerging product-focused models allow developers to cultivate legitimacy and gain informal influence. By mapping the structural, symbolic, and relational dynamics that produce peripherality, the study offers a framework for understanding how external expertise is organised, recognised, and negotiated in journalism, while illuminating broader challenges for legacy professions integrating essential technical expertise without compromising professional legitimacy.","PeriodicalId":11166,"journal":{"name":"Digital Journalism","volume":"29 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149003577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This raises questions about how AI use should be disclosed and how such disclosures affect readers. Prior research shows predominantly negative effects on perceived trustworthiness and credibility, but says little about how AI disclosures for different use cases compare to each other. In this study, we report the results of a conjoint experiment (N = 683) on the effects of task-specific AI disclosures on the perceived trustworthiness of news. While the magnitude of effects varies, we consistently find negative effects across all task-specific AI disclosures. However, moderation and cluster analyses suggest that these effects are not universal, but depend on individual-level characteristics that co-determine AI disclosure effects. By (1) highlighting important individual-level moderators such as respondents’ political position and their knowledge of journalistic AI, and (2) describing five distinctive preference profiles and their predictors, our results inform future research and help practitioners cater AI disclosures to particular groups of readers. To this end, we also situate our work within broader debates about what meaningful transparency should look like.","PeriodicalId":11166,"journal":{"name":"Digital Journalism","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149003624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
