As rapidly as new hair styles, latest fashion and most popular craze are being introduced into society, the forever evolvement of new communication tools are continuously being exposed within modern culture. Media flows are able to look at the development of communication through media outlets, regarding to all new forms of media.
The new forms of news media in which I am discussing are the
influence of the internet with in-porting, ex-porting and providing information
to those all around the world.
Weir (2008) indicates that the world is still in the early
stages of globalizing an informational economy, one where the trade in digital
bits of data can be every bit as valuable as the trade in physical goods and
services.
Implying that digital media is slowly becoming every bit as vital
as physical services as the need for news is so demanding.
As a globe we are captivated by social networking which
tends to reach more of a demographic to exploit news. Adds popping up on most website pages,
newspapers converting their hard copies into technological forms, all
contribute to the globalisation of new forms of media.
Weir (2008) continues to elaborate on the possibility that
in the next two years Internet use will surpass the reach of traditional media.
To a degree his visualization is increasingly correct as
even seen into today’s society, most people cannot live without checking or
updating their Facebook status or up loading “interesting” pictures on Twitter.
Warren and Moore (2011-2012) have indicated that the
internet has proved to be an ‘alternative’ to the major channels of media news
and information.
Again this is clearly seen within the informational website,
Google, which with only on word can produce multiple answers in which a person
may desire.
The internet is forever evolving increasing the information
exploited to society, news media is not the same from 10 years ago and with the
rapid evolvement of technology it won’t be the same 10 years from now.

Hi Jess, a really well developed piece of writing that has logically discussed this idea of news media which has evolved directly as a result of globalisation. To support your claims, you have referenced an authoritative source throughout. Your piece takes on an informative tone and whilst that is good, a blog might be your opportunity to try a more conversational style of writing. Good work :D
ReplyDeleteWell thought out and structured, however I would have liked to see more discussion on the Warren & Moore reading about alternatives in media with positive/negative thoughts. Also: Import & Export, no need for hyphen.
