Facets of news editing

Abstract

The astounding advancement in technology that the contemporary world has been embracing over the years naturally indicated that the changing trends of journalism were also heading in the same direction of accomplishments. News in the print media watched itself grow over the decade as it took up new forms to represent the many features of broadcast media, which resulted in the numerous television channels, radio programs and online websites. While it is often thought that the younger generation of today is not interested in the ‘ins and outs’ of journalism as a whole, the very advent of web news has changed the previous picture. The fast-paced world is only welcoming the newly-emerging forums of receiving information through technology, and giving its full support for any advancement in this sector. News coverage, therefore, is reaching new heights everyday with their multi-faceted stories waiting to be read, while journalism and studies related to the media are correspondingly being seen from a different light.
