Think about the traditional work and role of the journalist as you approach this question. Consider the journalists portrayed in the movie, All the President’s Men, who were real-life journalists in the 1970s. Then consider how the role of journalists have changed, including how social media is creating a form of citizen journalist where everyone with access to a smartphone and the internet can film, post, and circulate stories of interest.
Answer the following in a thoughtful 1-to-2 page response:
- Consider the point from the handout under page 3 of the handout under “essay” that describes the publisher’s remarks to journalists. What did he mean when he told them so much was “riding” on their story?
- How do journalists affect the role of media in our society?
- What effects, if any, do social media have on the function of journalism?
- Do you consider the emergence of citizen journalists using social media a positive or negative outcome of our modern age?
- How might these changes affect the role of journalists, particularly newspaper journalists, in the reporting of information?
