About

Lucy Morieson is a journalism researcher and lecturer, currently teaching into the 'Politics, Economies & Communication' contextual strand.

Lucy Morieson is a Lecturer in Contemporary Politics and Communication. She has a background in journalism practice and her research considers the ways journalism is changing as it moves away from legacy forms and is increasingly produced for online consumption. She is particularly interested in the ways journalists and publications navigate the associated shifts in professional practices and identities. Her PhD thesis examined these shifts at two Australian news organisations. She is actively working with RMIT ABC Fact Check and FactLab on a range of research projects around the intersection of fact checking and verification and journalism practice.
