| Description | Digitization is the process by which formerly analogue technologies and information are converted into digital forms. In this chapter, I present accounts of how three tools of journalism, the typewriter, camera, and electronic tape, took on new digital forms. This archaeological approach uncovers the choices that led to contemporary newsroom practices and what they mean for news workers. Often, the intention behind implementing digital technologies is not just to replace their analogue counterparts, but to establish a system that connects a range of activities and processes. Digital networks, devices, and software have been used to restructure work processes and reimagine what it means to be a reporter. As such, focusing on the continued digitization of journalism provides a starting point for thinking about journalists' labor. Digital and networked devices and software bring news production under tighter control. They have fundamentally restructured work processes and reshaped occupational identities.
