The Power of Platforms SHAPING MEDIA AND SOCIETY
The research for this book was made possible by the prize money from the
2014 Tietgen Award, which funded Sarah Anne Ganter’s position as a postdoc-
toral research fellow at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism and the
associated research costs. The work has since continued at the institute as well
as at the School of Communication at Simon Fraser University where Sarah is
now on faculty. Much of the work was carried out in a wider funding environ-
ment at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism at the University of
Oxford, which receives core funding from the Thomson Reuters Foundation
and is furthermore supported financially by more than 30 different funders,
including many of the different organizations that we cover in the book, for
example, media organizations such as the BBC and platform companies includ-
ing Google and Facebook, as well as others with interests in this area, such as
the British media and telecommunication regulator Ofcom.
