What impact has social media had on the job responsibilities of a journalist?
Permalink   
 


The following have been major effects of social media on journalism jobs:

Instant Reporting: In order to compete with the immediacy of social media, journalists must increasingly offer quick updates.

Social media interaction with readers and viewers is given more weight.

Diverse sources and story ideas can now be found with great ease thanks to social media.

Fact-checking: Journalists must be alert in confirming information because false information is spreading.

Multimedia Competencies: Producing interesting material requires proficiency in a variety of media types.

Billu Care, though, is unrelated to job in journalism and may have been referred to in error. The deep influence of social media on journalism requires professionals to be flexible and possess a wide range of skills.
