Evolution of Traditional to New Media

A. Direction: Read the paragraph carefully. Discuss what is indicated and write your
answer on the space provided.

1. One characteristic of traditional media is that media content goes through an

organized editorial process designed to authenticate news stories and attribute
them to a news media organization rather than to an individual. The online citizen
journalist does not work through this process. In this context, discuss the
difference between the opinioned news item by an individual blogger and a news
report appearing in the online version of a newspaper.
