About Clyde Bentley
Professor Clyde Bentley worked for 25 years in the newspaper industry before earning his doctorate in journalism at the University of Oregon in 2000. His dissertation, “Make My Day: Ritual, Dependency and the Habit of Newspaper Reading,” grew out of his prior experiences as a reporter, editor, general manager and marketing director at newspapers in California, Oregon, Idaho and Texas.
Bentley studied at the Poynter Institute and the American Press Institute before joining the Missouri School of Journalism in 2001. His research focuses on citizen journalism, Internet-facilitated journalism and the habits, preferences and comfort levels of digital media consumers.
