Abstract:

Based on the growing attention to the Internet as a democratic medium and its contribution to online participatory journalism, this study examines a case of an interactive South Korean online newspaper, Ohmynews, as an emerging public sphere. The foci of the analysis include the newspaper’s discursive construction of journalism in South Korean context and the performance of the newspaper on the basis of the normative conditions of a public sphere.
