Telescope In Bourne Ultimatum

journalist

The evolution of the Internet in recent years, from Web 1.0 to 3.0, has also meant a change in journalism. To deny this is to live in the past (and this is precisely the problem of some traditional media, to try any digital journalism.) Like all developments, this has its positive aspects and some negative, even for the same journalist .

Thanks to electronic media, blogs and social networks, the user has become an active part of the communication process. Although it sounds strange, we could say that the city has become a journalist (hence the name of citizen journalism, with which is also known to Journalism 3.0 ). This has its advantages because it is a greater connection between the user and the media, for example. Even the reader can participate in the information offered on the net, giving his opinion or correcting any possible error. Finally, the user can also give your own information. On the Web, anyone can publish their own blog or website. In journalism, the roles of transmitter and receiver are blurred, anyone can give any information and can be read (while the traditional media is very clear who issued the information, the newspaper and the recipient, the reader). This aspect, which could be detrimental to the journalist, because you can see "attacked" in their work, should be used to achieve the best possible end: maintaining interactivity with users.

The main objective journalists should seize the opportunities offered by Web 3.0 to better journalism. First, exploitation Social networks can be a very interesting weapon because they are a point of meeting and debate interesting (if used properly.) In addition, the site offers the proximity and upgradeability needed to be able to discuss a live issue, as is happening (a football game, a political debate, a terrorist attack ,...). Over time, stay away from the traditional work of the journalist (covering the story and write in the newspaper) and go to work where the journalist goes on to find the news and can write site or from home .

In conclusion, I would like to stay with positive feature: the multitude of progress that offers Web 3.0 as part of a new journalism. But I think in this new journalism, the reporter must develop a very important task that I have not spoken: educate users so that the benefits do not end up becoming drawbacks. And for that to happen, digital journalist should do their work perfectly, because if we are the first to pervert the new journalism, I can not even imagine what they will do the rest.
