    Journalism

    From Wikitia - Reading time: 1 min

    Journalism is the creation and dissemination of news stories on current events that are based on facts and backed by proof or evidence (also known as reporting). A journalist is someone who gathers and publishes information that is based on facts and backed by proof or evidence. The term journalism refers to both the profession and collaborative media that do so. Print, television, radio, the Internet, and, in the past, newsreels were all examples of journalistic media.

    The proper function for journalism differs from country to country in terms of how it is seen. In certain countries, the news media is dominated by government involvement and is not completely (or even partly) independent of the government's agenda. In some countries, the news media is not controlled by the government but rather operates as a private sector enterprise. Additionally, different nations may have different implementations of laws governing freedom of expression and libel suits, in addition to differences in the nature of how media companies are managed and financed.

    As a result of the widespread use of the Internet and mobile phones, the media landscape has undergone considerable transformation since the turn of the twenty-first century. A change in the consumption of print media channels has resulted, as people are increasingly consuming news via electronic readers, cellphones, and other personal electronic devices rather of the more conventional forms of newspapers, magazines, and television news channels. Reporters and editors are being pressed to maximise the revenue from their online presence and to adapt to the changing environment in which they publish print stories. As a result, newspaper print sales have been declining at a quicker pace than the rate of increase in digital revenues.
