Journalism

It's the Audience, Stupid! 
1.The new approach to storytelling is the comparsion from one country's citizens to another country's citizens such as the unemployment, illiteracy, and global issues.
2. Digital media is being used to engage audiences by having programming on the UK's largest network and allowing people from home to debate on the issues at hand by being able to call in no matter what country they're located in.
3. One can incorporate storytelling into an article by writing an article piece on a topic individuals can relate to.
Another way is to write a comparative piece that individuals from overseas can compare to.
A last way is to paraphrase instead of writing a too wordy piece.

All the Aggregation That's Fit to Aggregate  
1.Aggregation means smart people sharing their reading list, plugging one another into the bounty of the information universe.
2. The author describes Arianna Huffington as the "queen of aggregation" because she discovered that by taking different forms of information from unpaid bloggers and putting altogether on her website, millions of people became attracted to her webpage.
3.Aggregation is a threat to professional journalism because if one website (ie. Huffington Post) can simply take information from different outlets, it will stop sales from traditional newspapers. It will discredit professional journalists for their works.

PhotoJournalism in the Age of New Media \
1. The positives are it being available through social networks.
2. The professional journalist need to be careful because of the verification, the proper context and the attributions
3. It may not show the real picture and content of what is truly going on in the picture.
4. The citizen photojournalist impacts the professional photojournalist by taking their jobs, many new companies are happy with random shots and they don't have to be professional.
