Developing a theoretical understanding of news sharing requires broadening our gaze to include other communicative technologies, such as postal mail, email, voice calls, and in-person conversation. In a conceptual contribution based on reflections about my participation in long-term multi-method collaborative studies in the US, I argue that news sharing is an act of <i>commitment</i> at the core. I also propose a three-dimensional model of news recirculation. The first two dimensions, <i>publicness</i> and <i>ephemerality</i>, are ideological - although they widely misrecognized as properties of specific channels and platforms. People enact a third dimension of practice, <i>voice</i>, when they recirculate news.</p>","PeriodicalId":17541,"journal":{"name":"Journalism Studies","volume":"24 2","pages":"153-171"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10120862/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9443290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
