It first discusses why temporality is relevant to institutions like journalism and considers its two interrelated dominant manifestations in the news: nowness and firstness.

Finally, it considers the need for journalism's reset, arguing that the combined effect of nowness and firstness promotes temporality's neglect in the news and prevents the continual updating of the journalistic mindset from occurring.
