越来越多的新闻编辑室正在尝试虚拟现实（VR）和其他沉浸式叙事技术，这些技术通常得到科技公司的支持，这些公司将新闻业视为使VR成为主流的潜在工具。由此产生的文章在主题、风格和范围上都很广泛，但都给新闻规范和实践带来了新的复杂性。然而，到目前为止，新闻研究学者对这些沉浸式技术的研究相对较少。本文提出了研究虚拟现实新闻的三种概念方法：行动者网络理论、规范理论和新闻工作的社会学视角。
ABSTRACT A growing number of newsrooms are experimenting with Virtual Reality (VR) and other immersive storytelling techniques, typically supported by technology companies that see journalism as a potential vehicle for taking VR mainstream. The resulting pieces have been wide-ranging in topic, style, and scope, but all introduce new complexities to journalistic norms and practices. To date, however, journalism studies scholars have conducted relatively little research into these immersive technologies. This essay proposes three conceptual approaches to examining VR journalism: Actor-Network Theory, normative theory, and a sociological perspective on journalistic work.
