The Ever-Changing World of Media

This past week, we learned about the role that citizens have in media. For this to happen, the media has opened up many outlets for their readers participation. It is what the readers do with it that matters.

One option the readers have is to comment on the news stories. They can post their opinion, create an argument, give support, or make a correction if there is an error. To take this to a larger extent, enter into the equation blogging. Instead of just a small comment on a news article, people can create their own blogs to state their opinion on many things that are happening in the news.

Expanding from blogs, citizens can even write their own news article on get them posted on the internet.
On this website, Ohmy News, people can write and post news stories that they may have witnessed or read somewhere else.

Over the course of time, media has continued opening up outlets for citizens to participate in the news throughout the world. Who knows what will come of media in the next ten years and how many more outlets will be opened.
