Processing combines two crucial components: ethical engagement with news stories and a flexible time frame. Drawing on ethnographic and visual analysis of televisual, newspaper, and internet production at Turkey's socialist Yuzyil newspaper, I argue that journalists invest more heavily in non-digital mediums like television and print because they provide a more flexible temporality to process information through investigation and ethical deliberation.AnthropologyJournal Article1548-7458643694200006N/A8844
