Social media has changed the landscape of journalism from "summary" of The Free Voice by Ravish Kumar

In the digital age, the advent of social media has revolutionized the field of journalism. This transformation has brought about significant changes in the way news is disseminated and consumed by the masses. Traditional media outlets are no longer the sole gatekeepers of information, as social media platforms have provided a platform for individuals to share news and stories in real-time. The rise of citizen journalism on social media has democratized the news-making process, allowing ordinary people to report on events as they unfold. This has enabled a more diverse range of voices to be heard, challenging the dominance of mainstream media narratives. Social media has also facilitated the rapid spread of information, breaking down geographical barriers and allowing news to travel across the globe in a matter of seconds. However, with this democratization of news comes the challenge of verifying the authenticity and accuracy of information shared on social media. The prevalence of fake news and misinformation on these platforms has raised concerns about the reliability of online sources. Journalists now face the task of sifting through a sea of information to separate fact from fiction and uphold the principles of responsible journalism. Despite these challenges, social media has provided journalists with new opportunities to engage with their audience and cultivate a more interactive relationship with readers. Platforms like Twitter and Facebook have become valuable tools for journalists to share their work, connect with sources, and receive feedback from the public. This direct line of communication has enriched the journalistic process, allowing for greater transparency and accountability in reporting.
  1. The impact of social media on journalism cannot be understated. The digital landscape has forever altered the way news is created, shared, and consumed, presenting both challenges and opportunities for journalists in the modern era. As the boundaries between traditional and new media continue to blur, it is essential for journalists to adapt to these changes and harness the power of social media to uphold the principles of a free and independent press.
