Abstract [en]

Interactivity is a widely recognized feature of digital media and suggestions have been made for its inclusion within the definition of journalism. However, at present, there are somewhat limited empirical findings of any major interactivity in online news. This paper evaluates how interactive features have evolved over a three-year period within four Swedish news sites. The findings suggest that over time; an increased percentage of news items have become interactive, that more interactivity features have been introduced, that the interactivity in and around news enables users to have an increasingly enhanced role. This paper concludes that,in spite of a rather slow start, the tendency is now towards increased activity in what can be considered as interactive news.
