Abstract

This brief commentary takes stock of topics raised in this special issue, before arguing that the parameters of research into mobile news, while still being defined by articles like those published here, should broaden to constitute a developed sub-field of journalism studies. Fruitful avenues of endeavour include motivations for use of mobile, including not only convenience but a heightened need to know, as well as aspects of time, space, news consumption ritual, effects and political economy.
