Tubers: the why of YouTube by Julie Jones, PhD student, SJMC
Who are the producers of YouTube? What are they producing? Why YouTube is an area of interest for scholarship?
Julie Jones’ doctoral research is on citizen producers and how this phenomenon intersects with traditional news media. Her dissertation investigates the connection between individual?s self-concepts and the videos they produce and post on sites such as YouTube, Yahoo Video, and other social media sites. Julie began her photojournalism career as a general news photographer in 1982. After 22 years, she left the industry to pursue her doctorate degree at the University of Minnesota.
