Description

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Communications - Multimedia, Internet, New Technologies, grade: A, University of Auckland, course: Journalism Studies, language: English, abstract: The methodology of journalism and its professional application in contemporary media are at a crossroads; 'its institutional structures, its practices, its role and its perception by the public are all in flux'. On the one hand, journalism is an ancient academic 'textual system' that has a symbiotic relationship with history and law; 'a hybrid, interdisciplinary mix of the humanities and the social sciences'. On the other hand, journalism is a profession evolving out of, and alongside communication advancements, 'created by the industrial and bourgeois political revolutions of the 18th and 19th centuries and fully institutionalised in the mass media'. These differences are realised in the convergence of different practises and conventions applied in the 'third wave' of the internet, where 'every part of our lives will inevitably rely on an internet connection'.
