This document outlines a study examining how varying levels of interactivity in online newsrooms affects journalists' definitions of their public service goals. The study will conduct qualitative interviews with journalists from print-focused and online-focused news organizations to determine if their perspectives on public service norms like objectivity and transparency differ based on their responsibilities and newsroom approach. The researcher hypothesizes that higher levels of interactivity and an online newsroom focus may result in varying views of public service compared to print-focused journalists. Future work includes developing a survey and case studies to further test how shifting to digital media is changing journalists' definitions of their roles and norms.
