Electronic or Digital Journalism:  

  • The term ‘electronic journalism,’ also referred to as ‘e-journalism’ or ‘multi-platform journalism,’ describes recent developments in TV, print, radio, and online news that have merged traditional lines between media.  
  • Online journalism, commonly referred to as ‘digital journalism,’ is a modern subset of journalism in which editorial information is published online as opposed to in print or broadcast media. 
  • These contemporary journals are a component of electronic and digital journalism. These journals are particularly interested in history. The audience/readers can access historical content on a variety of websites, including news portals, social media, web channels, 'YouTube,' etc. 
  • The computer and the internet have become essential components of the printing and publishing processes in modern times. The internet and computer technology have facilitated the widespread practice of digital journalism. 
  • Newspaper websites are essentially extensions of the newspapers themselves. Electronic or digital journalism includes modern periodicals. 
  • People can get news from social media platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube, as well as web news portals and web channels. This information is available in a variety of languages, including English. 
  • Journalists in this field today must possess far more skills than in the past when writing was the only requirement. The information available on these mediums should be scrutinized critically and used with caution. 

Digital Newspaper (e-newspaper): 

  • E-newspapers have recently gained prominence in the Mass Media. A digital newspaper is one that is published digitally and is accessible via the Internet.
  • In an e-newspaper, the news is presented in chronological order rather than in order of importance as in a printed newspaper. 
  • Almost all newspapers now have a digital edition, also known as an e-newspaper. 
  • They can be accessed via mobile device apps.
