On Mediated Emotions, Journalistic Complacency and Apathy. An interview with Andrew Bissell

Abstrakt

In this interview, Andrew Bissell reflects on the technological and organizational evolution of the media, i.e. the transition from a typewriterto the Internet and the usage of social media. Such a change has brought new and better opportunities for being critical, but it has also increased the emotional involvement of media recipients.

Although the media environment is nowadays very "confused and nebulous", clarity will emerge, claims Bissell.
