Adam Matthew J. Tinworth;[2] born Nov 6, 1971 is a journalist and writer who co-authored two major role-playing games, Demon: The Fallen and Werewolf: The Forsaken from White Wolf Publishing. He was also an extensive contributor to Hunter: The Reckoning, a game line that was subsequently ported to video games.

More recently he has become known as a commenter and analyst of digital journalism and social media. The Guardian covered his dispute with the National Union of Journalists over the role of bloggers in the news ecosystem..[3], and has extensively referenced his work since.

Career[edit]

Adam Tinworth began his journalistic career by working on student magazines at Imperial College, London and Queen Mary, University of London.[4] He has written the long-running and influential[5][6] journalism blog One Man & His Blog since 2003.

His blogging was first written about in the press during the London bombings in July 2007, and was widely cited as an example of citizen journalism[7] - ironically, as he was a working journalist at the time. By 2009 his site was described by The Guardian as a prominent blog[8], alongside publications like Guido Fawkes.

His blogging work led to him being appointed blogging editor for Reed Business Information,[9] leading a push by the business-to-business publisher into blogs.[10] Previously, he was features editor of Estates Gazette, a weekly business magazine for the UK commercial real estate industry.

Tinworth has become known as a commenter, writer and analyst of digital media and its inter-relationship with journalism. His work initially was in the trade press[11], but expanded later to cover wider issues in more general forms of journalism. His work was quoted in The Guardian regularly during the late 2000s[12], presenting his comments on areas including journalistic blogging[13] and the rise of paywalls[14].

In recent years, he has participated in evolving business models for online publishers[15]. He has also participated in the debate around "fake news"[6], and been interviewed[16], in his role as a journalism lecturer at City, University of London, on social media's role in its spread. He is regularly interviewed by trade sites for journalists[17][18][19]

While no longer a working journalist, he occasionally breaks stories like the closing of Friends Reunited[20] and the arrival of a new Kindle typeface[21].

Tinworth's work has been quoted in both books[22], media articles[23] and academic papers[24] about digital journalism. He is one of the panel that contributes to the annual Reuters Institute study Journalism, Media, and Technology Trends and Predictions[25]

Controversies[edit]

Tinworth was criticised for taking non-traditional journalistic positions during a dispute with the National Union of Journalists[26], and debates[27] about the future of journalism careers with journalism writer and academic Roy Greenslade.

Role-Playing Games[edit]

In parallel to his journalism career, he began writing about RPGs for the British magazine Arcane[28]. he has contributed to over 25 role-playing game books[29] for White Wolf Game Studio, including Werewolf: The Forsaken and Demon: the Fallen, as well as two for Onyx Path[30]
