The Case of Self-Coverage

That phrase, the subtitle of an article in a 2004 issue of Journal of Communication, caught my attention for reasons obvious at least to myself. My terministic screen misguided me, though, as the curious term self-coverage is not about individual introspection, but about corporate introspection, i.e. journalists reporting on cultural products and activities produced by the same combined 'news and entertainment firms' that they themselves work for. The term is also used about media self-coverage in general, metacoverage and 'news from our own world'.

But - what is dawdling then?
