I've been asked to suggest "the ten most important journalistic innovations in the UK that have been implemented between 2011 and 2020".

What do people think?

Not big on lists, esp. if they risk suggesting ranking, but still interesting question. A few notes from me in thread
As usual Q of defining innovation, and more broadly, thinking about this struck by just how much change seems to have been driven by audience moving to digital+mobile+platforms, by advertisers moving to digital+platforms+programmatic, and political actors embracing digital+social
But with those caveats in mind, here some candidates in no particular order -

* Editorial analytics, and associated development of new metrics ('engaged time', lifetime value) and content reduction strategies
* New forms of non-profits (TBIJ, hyperlocals) and partnerships (ICIJ)
* Data journalism, visualization, open data
* Open-source intelligence
* Beginnings of reckoning over lack of diversity in industry, including some attempts at diversity reports, and rethinking of editorial talent/HR more broadly
* Automated tools for monitoring e.g. sources
* Fact checking (both e.g. FullFact and in-house at e.g. BBC)
* Some automation of stories, e.g. PA's RADAR
* Some personalization, both active and passive
* Live blogs/live pages (I know these started earlier, but has really evolved and grown)
What else would people suggest? (Pick your def of innovation) Pay models?

Much of the above still incipient, and unevently distributed across profession+industry, and overall external forces I think have driven change far more than internal innovations in journalism+news media?
