“@?”: Authorship and Newsroom Image Crediting Practices on Instagram
Kyser Lough, Georgia and Alex Scott, Iowa. “@?”: Authorship and Newsroom Image Crediting Practices on Instagram. Accepted in the Visual Communication Division at AEJMC 2024, Philadelphia.
Summary: This study examines the struggles of photojournalism with the concept of authorship, particularly in the digital age, where proving the involvement of humans in creating images is essential. Contrary to traditional news publishing norms, there is no standard for image crediting on third-party publishing platforms like Instagram. Therefore, we use content analysis to develop a codebook and analyze the visibility of news image authorship on social media.
