摘要
This article examines journalists' curatorial practices with regard to linked and embedded sources on three news media platforms: the online version of a legacy news medium, a native online explanatory news medium, and an online citizen news medium. Our goal is to explore the curatorial practices in online journalism, and the continuity and changes in journalistic gatekeeping in the online environment. Our results demonstrate that established journalistic traditions are still prevalent in online news. Meanwhile, links to digital archives are widely used to contextualize news subjects. Explanatory journalism and citizen journalism do exhibit characteristics of what Herbert Gans calls 'multiperspectival' news, which covers a wider variety of social institutions. We discuss differences in the prevalence of the curatorial treatments of various types of linked sources in relation to journalists' views of their roles, and the online news media's organizational and technological natures.
