Abstract

Like many of my fellow journalism lecturers, I often get asked for tips on turning academic research into journalism pieces. These requests have been getting more frequent. It's a compliment, but why is there a sudden interest in making academic work more accessible? The answer could lie in the blurring boundaries of academia, social media and altmetrics.
