The future of journalism

The future of journalism



1) Clay Shirk argues that "accountability journalism" is important as the media gets their information which they base their news story from journalist and if the journalist isn't correct or accountable then this makes the news story false and inaccurate. 

2) I think he states that advertisers place their adverts on news websites showing how they have a symbiotic relationship as advertisers benefit from placing their news advert as they can get new customers from them viewing the advert and newspapers benefit as they make money from advertisers place their as on their websites.

3) I think Clay Shirk states that due to newspapers having so much content in terms of them consistently covering news stories, this causes the person reading the newspaper to go through many stories as they can thus unbundling as much content as they can.

4) If the internet was more widespread I992 then more people would have definitely known about it and would also allows people to get information about the scandal even if the church try to silence different media outlets or companies.

5) Shirky argues against pay walls as they are a way of interfering between the reader and the newspaper.

6) A social good can be defined as something that is available to anyone and in journalism this means that a news story is available for anyone in the public to read and consume.

7) By having something that is able to bring information to a large group of people.

8) If the New York Times or the Guardian are able to stay business and provide news this means that more people will be able to get information about current events thus giving large amounts of information to a large audience or population.

Mise en Scene analysis

Image
 Mise en scene analysis In this still image you see a man in a bus. The costume the man is wearing a black jacket, the colour black represented mystery, evil and death which can foreshadow what happens later to the man clarifying the shocked look on his face. In the image, the lighting is bright however as you move further away from the man it becomes blurry and harder to see. The blurring could link to how the character feels confused and astonished. The actor  in the image has a frightened and terrified expression on his face showing that he is terrified and is a state of panic and fear and also he is in a hunched position so that he can be avoid being seen which shows that he is uneasy, timid and reserved.  It looks like the character has dark rings underneath his eyes which could be the result of make-up which shows how the character is restless and is in a state of discomfort and uneasiness. The prop the character is holding is a pink jacket which he uses...

Oh Comely Industry

Oh Comely Industry 1) Iceberg was set up because they believe in the power of the printed word and of the owners believes that lots of magazines have given up on their readers. 2) The mission statement for Iceberg is: It's all about the audience.

News Story 3

News Story 3 1 ) https://www.dailymail.news.uk/news/article-6232587/Knifeman-goes-rampage-stabs-commuters-east-London-train.html Knifeman 'goes on the rampage' on London train and stabs one person putting Hackney Central station on lockdown. 2)   3) I would consider this news story hard news as hard news tends to talk about politics, war , economics and crime and this would be considered crime. Also, the website uses a factual approach in which they explain the events and what happened . This also talks about a serious topic which is a knife man going on rampage which causing three people to be hurt and because of this I would consider this hard news. 4) This might appeal to an audience as it uses Familiarity and Surprise. Familiarity is used as it the incident occurred in the Hackney which is in the UK causing the audience who are predominantly UK readers to be effected more as it is closer to them. Surprise is used as this incident is indeed a surprise whic...
