A Curated Collection of SU Newhouse Media Studies Open-Access Publications
As one of the leading institutions for media studies scholarship, the faculty and graduate students in the M.A. Media Studies and Ph.D. Mass Communication programs in The Newhouse School are some of the most prolific and highly-cited in their respective fields. This collection represents a living and dynamic curated repository for many of their open-access publications. As represented in these publications, our faculty are dedicated not only to better understanding the critical issues, cultural implications, and uses and effects of contemporary media—but they are also equally committed to ensuring that this scholarship can be read by anyone with an interest in these topics.
Publications here include only a small sampling of open-access materials. For complete publication details from these and other Newhouse School faculty, please consult those individual faculty pages or other databases (such as Web of Science or Google Scholar).
