Putting narrative journalism to the test of the real: Towards a sociology of action?
Eyriès, Alexandre
Putting narrative journalism to the test of the real: Towards a sociology of action? - 2018.
56
This article presents an analysis of the mechanisms that have led to the emergence of “slow journalism” and of a narrative journalism that has appeared as both an alternative to more conventional journalistic approaches and a means of producing long-form reporting of the sort that is less and less possible for daily newspapers and magazines to finance. This new type of journalism is inseparable from the context of the crisis of institutional journalism, which is losing its impetus. Mooks, the hybrid publications in which such articles appear, are also discussed, in terms of the tensions between the effort to renew reporting (which is the counterpart of a certain scientificity) and the subjectivity of reporters, which is acknowledged in the narrative (but not in their treatment of events).
