My Research Interests

I may have left the newsroom to pursue an academic career, but my love of journalism hasn't faded. My research builds upon my experience in the newsroom.  You can see samples of my research on my Scholarly Publications page.
  
I have two main research interests.  My first focus is on journalistic ethics.  I strive to understand how journalists make ethical choices.  For example, I am interested in knowing how individual values influence the work of political cartoonists.

My research also explores how technology influences journalism on a broader level.  I explore issues such as how smartphone and tablet apps are transforming journalism.
