New Ways of Doing the News
ОглавлениеThe inventiveness necessitated by the advent of digital media is appearing constantly. Thanks to the Web, there are great experiments in new journalism forms. Digital media strategist Jon Bernstein (http://jonbernstein.co.uk/; 2009) in the UK names five of them:
Interactive infographicsThis allows the public to do its own analysis of the data. The New York Times is especially good at this.
Crowdsourcing.The inherent democratic values of the Web allow for the public to identify stories it feels needs more and better coverage. It is willing to pay for this.
PodcastingThe success of investigative reporting via podcasting has created a new journalistic form especially with Serial. (https://serialpodcast.org).
“Over‐by‐over” (In North American English, that would be “play‐by‐play.”)Sports analysis has taken on a more interesting and more public way for the public to understand the more arcane aspects of sports (a.k.a. “inside baseball”).
BloggingThe ability of the Web to allow personal opinion alongside investigative journalism is astonishing. It has become a truly international expression of popular notions and values. It has also given a boost to audio reporting by offering reporting in a more personal form.
