INTRODUCTION

Nowadays, there are different ways of communication in the journalism, like the radio, television, newspapers and Internet.

Our technology improves with the time and makes that some media become more useful and other media become less useful. One of the questions we make ourselves is what it’s going to happen with the journalism.

There are a lot of different answers which some of them are optimistic and positive about the journalism and other answers that are pessimistic and negative about this job.

As a conclusion, we have a positive visionof the future of journalism and we don't believe that the four current media are going to disappear. Despite of the fact that they have the same function, they present different ways to inform.

A lot of people believe in the extinction of the newspapers. We think that newspapers, television and radio are compatible with Internet, and the duty of the journalist is look for new functions for this media.

On one hand, Internet is a new media and has mistake. On the other hand, our society doesn`t like the changes. That's why a lot of people prefer traditional media.

Journalism crisis


In this video, experts at the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, speak about the journalism crisis had “reached meltdown proportions” and that “some major cities will not longer have a newspaper”. The experts recognize the magnitude of the challenges facing established print and broadcast news organizations, but at the same time, are preparing a new generation of journalists for the opportunities that are being created by the changing media landscape, marked by advances in technology and expanded use of the Internet.

As the industry undergoes rapid transformation, the Journalism School is ensuring that their students have the training and skills to be competitive in the evolving landscape. Journalism professionals need to be able to meet the changing expectations of news consumers.  In particular, students at the school are learning to develop a “digital media mindset”—how to think about news stories from an online perspective.

“Transitions are always an exciting time to be able to do groundbreaking and innovative journalism.” Assure the professors.

    I agree with the fact that at the time of training new journalists are taught to use the Internet as a diffusion media. Until now we had three media: television, radio and newspapers. Currently, because of our progress as a society, has appeared a new meda, which has created very high expectations, internet.
    With the advent of internet, it is believed in the possibility of the extinction of traditional media, especially newspapers. For this reason, I agree that new journalism students are taught to use the Internet as a media of communication, that if, while still teaching the traditional media, because at the moment is still spreading and has not disappeared none, therefore we did not bring forward the facts.
