Abstract: The purpose of this study is twofold: first, to chart the
changing landscape of mass communication research in journalism-related
studies over the past two decades and, second, to determine the
contemporary form and content of the invisible college in the field through
its intellectual configuration and structural interaction. A simple
citation count is inadequate; the analysis of co-citation networks should
be a better indication of the field's effort to build on its theoretical
foundation. The findings suggest that there is some sort of theoretical and
methodological convergence in contemporary journalism-related studies.
