Journalism Evolution: Traditional and Contemporary

The field of journalism has undergone a remarkable transformation in the past few decades, with the rise of the internet and digital technology. For centuries, print journalism served as the primary source of news, information, and political updates. However, in the last 20 to 30 years, the content, speed, and format of journalism have experienced significant changes, causing ambiguity about the role of traditional journalism in today's contemporary world. Think about the last time you were updated about the latest news. Was it while scrolling through your social media feed on your smartphone? The convenience and speed of contemporary journalism have made it the preferred choice for many, pushing print, radio, and even TV to the sidelines as new and improved ways of consuming news emerge. The advent of the internet has surpassed the impact of previous forms of traditional media such as the printing press, telegraph, and television. This innovation has not only transformed the methods and purpose of journalism but has also influenced people's perceptions of news media. The rise of blogger and citizen journalism has disrupted the traditional notions surrounding journalists and news companies. Today, news outlets like Google rely on the ability to gather and collect information rather than solely depending on individual journalists. This shift challenges society's traditional ideas about journalists and news. Journalism continues to evolve at a rapid pace. More people are replacing newspapers with smartphones equipped with a multitude of excellent news apps. Online platforms have become the norm for accessing news. Televised journalism, while still relevant, has merged with videos and is interconnected with various social media platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and personal blogs. In the debate between traditional and contemporary journalism, it is important to view it as an evolution driven by technology. The highly influential digital journalism platform has transformed the way we consume news and interact with the media. Rather than declaring a winner or loser in this discussion, let us recognize the profound changes that have occurred and embrace the opportunities presented by the digital age.
