Session two: News media as watchdog
How has the technological and economic disruption of the media business affected journalism’s ability to hold institutions accountable? Do newspapers and other traditional media organisations still play a dominant role in setting the public agenda? Are new media organisations, individual journalists, or other institutions (such as universities) capable of filling gaps created by resource cuts in traditional media organisations? Are some important subjects or communities affected by this deficit more than others? What is the appropriate role of citizens in the watchdog process? What are the implications for journalism of the current national security climate? You will find the answers to all these questions in the material below, as well as in a top writing service such as https://topwritingservice.com/ The information absorbed in this way will be a great impetus for creating projects.
