Through in-depth interviews with Taiwanese newspaper workers, this paper illustrates the “de-skilling” effects of information and communication technologies (ICTs) on journalists. In recent years, Taiwanese reporters have experienced an increase in workload and an intensification of managerial control due to the introduction of new technologies in the newsroom. Using ICTs in the workplace consequently has harmed journalists’ working conditions and autonomy. Moreover, ICTs have led to a trivialization of reporting tasks and devaluation of reporters’ experience and knowledge. The degradation of reporting work resulting from the use of ICTs has enabled managers at Taiwanese newspapers to hire young employees to fill the jobs of experienced reporters and to reduce salary costs.  Resume : En se fondant sur des entretiens en profondeur menes avec les employes de quotidiens taiwanais, cet article illustre la dequalification de journalistes causee par les technologies de communication et de l’information (TCIs). Depuis quelques annees, les reporters taiwanais ont subi une augmentation de leur charge de travail et du controle administratif exerce sur eux a la suite de l’introduction de nouvelles technologies dans les salles de nouvelles. Ainsi, les TCIs au travail ont porte atteinte aux conditions de travail et a l’autonomie des journalistes. En outre, les TCIs ont banalise les tâches des reporters et ont devalue leur experience et leur savoir. La degradation du travail journalistique resultant de l’introduction des TCIs a permis aux dirigeants des quotidiens taiwanais d’engager de jeunes employes a la place de reporters experimentes et de reduire les salaires.
