Where is Journalism Going

As years come by journalists need to change during this era of technology. Instead of thinking of themselves as only print journalists or broadcast journalists, they need to think of themselves as journalists, period. They must be able to report the news in publication, online or in front of a microphone. More online networks are increasing around the world, online news would be more common than TV news. The media isn't the only thing changing. The world of work is changing. More and more, people are becoming multi-skilled workers. They are having to manage lots of projects and priorities and develop new skills all the time. A journalist's most important tool is not a notepad, tape recorder, digital camcorder, computer or even the ability to write a story and those were the old journalists back then. A journalist's most important tool is her brain. They need to question, know what happened, who does it affect, and why is this important? Critical thinking precedes good writing. So, future journalists need to learn how to think. They also need to learn how to learn. Online publications of news are taking over and easy to find on the web than waiting for the news on TV. Back then Journalism were most common when the online news wasn't popular. Good storytelling in an online article was easy for web users. Journalists who work on those things will receive more recognition. Journalism is facing challenges of rapidly changing the way product is consumed. Journalism in the digital world is good how you can update and change the news.
