These are the slides from a talk I gave to editors of Swedish newspapers in 2016 when I started with the predictions I had made to another group of Swedish newspaper editors back in 2009. I was right then, but I have no idea if I am right now.
It is best to know the branches of literature since it evolves and involves our everyday life that connects individuals with larger truths and ideas in a society as it creates a way for people to record their thoughts and experiences that is accessible to others, through fictionalized accounts of the experience.
Knowing the critic's specific purpose may be to make value judgments on a work, to explain his or her interpretation of the work, or to provide other readers with relevant historical or biographical information and the critic's general purpose, in most cases that is to enrich the reader's understanding of the literary work presented.

Globalization represents an unavoidable phenomenon in the history of mankind, which is making the world smaller and smaller by increasing the exchange of goods, services, information, knowledge and cultures between different countries, therefore, it is very important to understand the "why, where, what and how" of our current situation.

ONLINE JOURNALISM AND PRACTICES
2. • Online journalism is the future, newspaper/TV
advertising revenues are down.
• A few newspapers in the world has already closed
down its print edition while continuing the online
edition.
• A media to stay.. But, traditional media will not die.
• The history of media shows arrival of new media
changes/ constrains the role of existing media.
By: cheldy Sygaco Elumba-Pableo,MPA,LLB
3. • The proliferation of online communication has
had a profound effect on the newspaper
industry.
• As individuals turn to the Internet to receive
news for free, traditional newspapers struggle to
remain competitive and hold onto their
traditional readers.
4. • However, the Internet’s appeal
goes beyond free content.
• This section delves further into
the Internet and its influence on
the print industry
5. • Weblogs, or blogs, have offered a
new take on the traditional world of
journalism.
• Blogs feature news and commentary
entries from one or more authors.
6. • However, journalists differ on
whether the act of writing a
blog, commonly known as
blogging, is, in fact, a form of
journalism.
7. • Indeed, many old-school reporters
do not believe blogging ranks as
formal journalism.
• Unlike journalists, bloggers are
not required to support their work
with credible sources.
8. • This means that stories published on
blogs are often neither verified nor
verifiable.
• As Jay Rosen, New York University
journalism professor, writes, “Bloggers
are speakers and writers of their own
invention, at large in the public square.
9. • They’re participating in the great game of
influence called public opinion (Rosen,
2004).”
• Despite the blurry lines of what constitutes
“true” journalism—and despite the fact that
bloggers are not held to the same standards
as journalists—many people still seek out
blogs to learn about news.
10. • Thus, blogs have affected the news
journalism industry.
• According to longtime print
journalist and blogger Gina Chen,
“Blogging has changed journalism,
but it is not journalism (Chen,
2009).”
11. • Beyond the lack of accountability in blogging, blogs are
free from the constraints of journalism in other ways
that make them increasingly competitive with
traditional print publications.
• Significantly, Internet publication allows writers to
break news as soon as it occurs.
• Unlike a paper that publishes only once a day, the
Internet is constantly accessible, and information is
ready at the click of a mouse.
12. • In 1998, the Internet flexed its rising journalistic
muscle by breaking a story before any major print
publication: the Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky
scandal.
• The Drudge Report, an online news website that
primarily consists of links to stories, first made the
story public, claiming to have learned of the scandal
only after Newsweek magazine failed to publish it.
13. • On January 18, 1998, the story broke
online with the title “Newsweek Kills
Story on White House Intern.
• Blockbuster Report: 23-year-old,
Former White House Intern, Sex
Relationship with President.”
• .
14. • The report gave some details on the scandal,
concluding the article with the phrase “The
White House was busy checking the Drudge
Report for details (Australian Politics, 1998).”
• This act revealed the power of the Internet
because of its superiority in timeliness,
threatening the relevancy of slower
newspapers and news magazines
15. • PRINT MEDIA also continuously struggle with space
constraints, another limit that the Internet is spared.
• As newspapers contemplate making the transition from
print to online editions, several editors see the positive
effect of this particular issue. N. Ram, editor in chief of
The Hindu, claims, “One clear benefit online editions can
provide is the scope this gives for accommodating more
and longer articles.
16. • There need be no space constraints, as in the print
edition (Viswanathan, 2010).”
• With the endless writing space of the Internet, online
writers have the freedom to explore topics more
fully, to provide more detail, and to print interviews
or other texts in their entirety—opportunities that
many print journalists have longed for since
newspapers first began publishing.
17. • Online writing also provides a forum for amateurs to
enter the professional realm of writing.
• With cost-cutting forcing newspapers to lay off writers,
more and more would-be journalists are turning to the
Internet to find ways to enter the field.
• Interestingly, the blogosphere has launched the
careers of journalists who otherwise may never have
pursued a career in journalism.
18. • FOR EXAMPLE, blogger Molly Wizenberg founded the
blog Orangette because she didn’t know what to do
with herself: “The only thing I knew was that,
whatever I did, it had to involve food and writing
(Wyke, 2009).”
• After Orangette became a successful food blog,
Wizenberg transitioned into writing for a traditional
media outlet: food magazine Bon Appetit.
19. • With declining readership and increasing
competition from blogs, most newspapers have
embraced the culture shift and have moved to
online journalism.
• For many papers, this has meant creating an online
version of their printed paper that readers will have
access to from any location, at all times of the day.
By 2010, over 10,000 newspapers had gone online.
20. • But some smaller papers—
particularly those in two-paper
communities—have not only
started websites, but have also
ceased publication of their printed
papers entirely.
21. • One such example is Seattle’s Post-
Intelligencer.
• In 2009, the newspaper stopped
printing, “leaving the rival Seattle
Times as the only big daily in town
(Folkenflik, 2009).”
22. • As Steve Swartz, president of Hearst Newspapers
and owner of the Post-Intelligencer, commented
about the move to online-only printing, “Being the
second newspaper in Seattle didn’t work.
• We are very enthusiastic, however, about this
experiment to create a digital-only business in
Seattle with a robust community website at its
core (Folkenflik, 2009).
23. • For the Post-Intelligencer, the move meant a dramatic
decrease in its number of staff journalists.
• The printed version of the paper employed 135
journalists, but the online version, Seattlepi.com,
employs only two dozen.
• For Seattlepi.com, this shift has been doubly unusual
because the online-only newspaper is not really like a
traditional newspaper at all.
24. • As Swartz articulated, “Very few people come
to our website and try to re-create the
experience of reading a newspaper—in other
words, spending a half-hour to 45 minutes
and really reading most of the articles.
• We don’t find people do that on the Web
(Folkenflik, 2009).”
25. • The online newspaper is, in reality, still
trying to figure out what it is.
• Indeed, this is an uncomfortable
position familiar to many online-only
papers: trapped between the printed
news world and the online world of
blogs and unofficial websites.
26. • During this transitional time for newspapers, many
professional journalists are taking the opportunity to enter
the blogosphere, the realm of bloggers on the Internet.
• Journalist bloggers, also known as beatbloggers, have
begun to utilize blogs as “tool[s] to engage their readers,
interact with them, use them as sources, crowdsource
their ideas and invite them to contribute to the reporting
process,” says beatblogger Alana Taylor (Taylor, 2009).
27. • As beatblogging grows, online newspapers
are harnessing the popularity of this new
phenomenon and taking advantage of the
resources provided by the vast Internet
audience through crowdsourcing
(outsourcing problem solving to a large
group of people, usually volunteers).
28. • Blogs are becoming an increasingly
prominent feature on news websites, and
nearly every major newspaper website
displays a link to the paper’s official blogs on
its homepage.
• This subtle addition to the web pages
reflects the print industry’s desire to remain
relevant in an increasingly online world.
29. • Even as print newspapers are making the
transformation to the digital world with greater or
less success, Internet news sites that were never
print papers have begun to make waves.
• Sites such as The Huffington Post, The Daily Beast,
and the Drudge Report are growing in popularity.
30. • FOR EXAMPLE, The Huffington Post displays the
phrase “The Internet Newspaper: News, Blogs,
Video, Community” as its masthead, reiterating
its role and focus in today’s media-savvy world
(Huffington Post).
• In 2008, former Vanity Fair editor Tina Brown
cofounded and began serving as editor in chief
of The Daily Beast.
31. • On The Daily Beast’s website, Brown has noted
its success: “I revel in the immediacy, the
responsiveness, the real-time-ness. I used to be
the impatient type.
• Now I’m the serene type. Because how can you
be impatient when everything happens right
now, instantly (Brown, 2009)?”
32. • Some newspapers are also making even more
dramatic transformations to keep up with the
changing online world.
• In 2006, large newspaper conglomerate
GateHouse Media began publishing under a
Creative Commons license, giving noncommercial
users access to content according to the license’s
specifications.
33. • The company made the change to
draw in additional online viewers
and, eventually, revenue for the
newspapers.
• Writer at the Center for Citizen
Media, Lisa Williams, explains in her
article published by PressThink.org:
34. • GateHouse’s decision to CC license its content
may be a response to the cut-and-paste world of
weblogs, which frequently quote and point to
newspaper stories.
• Making it easier—and legal—for bloggers to
quote stories at length means that bloggers are
pointing their audience at that newspaper.
35. • Getting a boost in traffic from weblogs may have an
impact on online advertising revenue, and links
from weblogs also have an impact on how high a
site’s pages appear in search results from search
engines such as Google.
• Higher traffic, and higher search engine rankings
build a site’s ability to make money on online ads
(Williams, 2006).
36. • GateHouse Media’s decision to alter its newspapers’
licensing agreement to boost advertising online reflects
the biggest challenge facing the modern online newspaper
industry: profit.
• Despite shrinking print-newspaper readership and rising
online readership, print revenue remains much greater
than digital revenue because the online industry is still
determining how to make online newspapers profitable.
37. • As one article notes:
• The positive news is that good
newspapers like The New York Times, The
Guardian, The Financial Times, and The
Wall Street Journal now provide better,
richer, and more diverse content in their
Internet editions.
38. • The bad news is that the print
media are yet to find a viable, let
alone profitable, revenue model
for their Internet journalism
(Viswanathan, 2010).
39. • The issue is not only that
information on the Internet is
free but also that advertising is
far less expensive online.
40. • As National Public Radio (NPR) reports,
“The online-only plan for newspapers
remains an unproven financial model;
there are great savings by scrapping
printing and delivery costs, but even
greater lost revenues, since advertisers pay
far more money for print ads than online
ads (Folkenflik).”
41.
42. • Despite these challenges, newspapers both in print
and online continue to seek new ways to provide the
public with accurate, timely information.
• Newspapers have long been adapting to cultural
paradigm shifts, and in the face of losing print
newspapers altogether, the newspaper industry
continues to reinvent itself to keep up with the
digital world.
43.
44. • The dynamic and fluid nature of new media
and its many undefinable parts has kept
authorities hopping since its inception.
• There are a range of explanations and
hypothesis, but there is a lack of one specific
definition.
45. • New media can be defined by its
technology (interactivity, digitalization,
convergence); services (delivery of
information, entertainment, political
participation, education, commerce); and
textual forms (genre hybridity,
hypertextuality, multimedia.
46. • There is great uncertainty regarding the changing media
environment.
• Many argue new media will supplement rather than replace old
media.
• As the diversity of media increases audiences become more
fragmented.
• Audiences are less predictable.
• As the information and communication technology advances new
forms of media content will arise.
47. • The Web has put traditional journalism into a
tailspin, and newspapers of all sizes are
scrambling to find a way to monetize their
content.
• Globalization has been fueled by the technology.
• The sudden changes brought about by the
Internet and new media has left many old media
organizations behind.
48. • Apart from the role that is being played
by traditional media, new media is now
leading this new era of globalization and
knowledge.
• It has often been stated that the
traditional function of journalism will
erode with the advance of new
information technologies.
49. • Direct news supply by satellite television and
computer networks, the explosion of
information and the increasing communication
autonomy of citizens, less public service and
more commercial exploitation of media, textual
blogs, photoblogs, videoblogs, wikis, podcasts,
and moblogs all suggest critical journalism is
becoming redundant
50. • So far journalism has experienced several transformation periods:
Every new medium brought new challenges for journalism
practice.
• To understand the impact of “new” technologies on journalism,
practice in new technologies must be seen as continuous with and
embedded in existing social, cultural, political, and economic
networks in which journalism practice is entrenched.
• It has been said that journalism is turning from a lecture into a
conversation, and in many way this is extremely desirable.
51. • The introduction of new media has challenged the
traditional form of journalism as global emphasis shifts to
online, real-time reportage of events.
• Today, news is delivered in a unique manner, combining
audio and visual in such a way that its impact can never
be over-emphasized.
• New media has silently, but steadily, become a force to
be reckoned with in today’s world.
52. • Today the environments in which journalists work—
across various media platforms of print, radio,
television, and online—have begun to rapidly
change in response to innovations in technology,
increasingly competitive and fragmenting markets
for readers and audiences, government media
policy, and changing audience requirements for
news and the ways in which it is presented and
delivered.
53. • The high-tech revolution has
significantly altered the way the
public obtains its news and
information, and has deprived mass
media of its traditional monopoly
54. • The media and the practice of journalism,
however, have been slow to adjust to the
Internet and the global ramifications produced
by the new information technology.
• While major media companies have become
multinational operators, their news product still
remains substantially unchanged.
55. • Journalists throughout the world
still separate “domestic” from
“foreign,” while their audiences
casually chat between continents.
• Such are the key lamentations on
the fate of journalism today.
56. • The demise of the existing business model of the local and
regional press and of broadcast news together with the
struggle for survival of many national newspapers demands
critical consideration.
• Many scholars blame technological convergence as the main
culprit and lament the dismantling of demarcations
between journalists and technicians and between print,
radio, and television journalism.
57. • The technology once handled by specialists and
consultants is becoming part of all media
professionals’ jobs. Magazines, television
programs, and newspapers are publishing on
the Internet in an attempt to "cross benefit" by
having two media products.
• Media professionals must also understand some
practical theory of new media technology.
58. • New media technology introduced two major differences in
media access.
• Time and geographic distance are insignificant with satellite
and computer networks.
• The same hardware offers limitless channels of distribution
that come without centralized control.
• These technological changes initiate new culture.
59. • McLuhan described this as the
"global village" in which electronic
communication would break down
the barriers and obstacles
encountered in traditional media by
allowing people to see, experience,
and understand more.
60. • With the introduction of new media
technology, the Internet is seen as the
most dynamic mass media in this
century.
• Its interactive nature has attracted
people from all walks of life.
61. • Unlike its predecessors, TV and radio, the Internet is also a
storehouse of knowledge providing access to huge pile of
information.
• It is the most recent communication tool of the world where a
user can transcend borders and have access to the
encyclopedias, newspapers, bulletin boards, video arcades,
hypermalls, broadcast stations, the movies, grapevine, travel
agency, and mail order—all at one stop.
62. • The Internet brings with it new ways of collecting
and reporting information heralding a “new
journalism” that is open to novices, lacks editorial
control, can stem from anywhere (not just the
newsroom), involves new writing techniques,
functions in a network with fragmented audiences, is
delivered at great speed, and is open and
deliberative—a democratic model for our times.
63. • With new media, journalism is no longer a sermon but
rather interactive: The audience is now part and parcel of
the information gathering and dissemination.
• Inasmuch as journalism is involved, new media
complements other media in regard to influencing the
shape and space of press freedom.
• At the same time, the freedom of new media—like other
media—is dynamically related to the overall societal
context as regards press freedom dispensations.
64. • With massive changes in the media
environment and its technologies, interrogating
the future of journalism is one of the most
urgent tasks we face in defining the public
interest today.
• The implications are serious, not just for the
future of the news, but also for the practice of
democracy.
65. • In a thorough empirical investigation of journalistic
practices in different news contexts, new media and
journalism explore how technological, economic, and
social changes have reconfigured journalism, and what
the consequences of these transformations for a vibrant
democracy have in our digital age.
• The result is a piercing examination of why
understanding journalism matters now more than ever.
