The audience receive the news in different ways; news is available on the three different media platforms which are print, broadcasting and emedia. This allows the audience use a variety of different ways to gain access to news. This allows it to be easier and offers more freedom to audiences as they are able to voice their opinions easily over a particular story.
Broadcast allows you to watch 24 hour news channels also known as rolling news, examples of this are sky news and bbc news. Which both offer 24 hour news.
Print is in the form of newspapers examples are the sun which is one of or if not the most popular newspaper with readership of nearly 10million a day.
E media are news on the internet which can be normal news channels which also have news websites furthermore social networks have a big impact on news creating discussions about particular stories.
Mobile applications allow people to stay up to date with news on the go. Making this easy and much more accessible to different audiences.
20 years ago this was a lot more different as you could only receive news from TV’s which were not available for 24 hours. The most popular way was probably from newspapers. And radio also referred to as the wireless was also a way of receiving news. Furthermore as people went to the cinema often news was shown in the cinema “news reels” this allowed people to know what was going on while going out to watch a film. Also word and mouth where people will just tell one another about major headlines.
This differs from as the news is becoming more user generated and audiences are becoming their own news reporters and in the olden days this was restricted because of technology advancements.
I feel the explosion of many different ways and formats people receive the news is much more beneficial as I feel people are more aware of what is going on around them. They are able to voice their opinions allowing people to know a majority of views then receiving news which is biased and is loyal to the institutions which create the news.
NEWS DIARY
Emedia- I looked at the CNN news on the internet and this is full of real truthful stories and this represent a hard news institution whose beliefs can be biased as the institution. The institutions website is formal and talks about news which is intense and real “war”
Print- I looked at the Ealing gazette which is the local newspaper and this feature story of hard news as this newspaper is a paper to show people what is happening in their area therefore it is about what is going on in the London borough of Ealing.
Broadcasting- there is a news channel called e news and this comes on the channel E!Entertainm. The news is all soft news and talks about celebrities in all of their news stories. The news is informal as the way the presenters look and show the news is different to what you would associate news with.
