Our great grandparents or grandparents might remember getting a newspaper at the front of their porch. Newspapers were source of information at that time and a way to connect to outer world, learning about what is happening around them. When prints were only way to get the news it was a really good business to do. It was really slow to receive the news but it was more accurate. Since everything was being printed there was more jobs available and for different positions open and different job description. More newspaper meant more people at work. Business was doing great and workers had job but as our technology started to advance and during 1920s radio and television were introduced which made people buy these but newspaper was still there but the use of it went down. Consumers were interested in these because news were faster compared to the newspaper, these new form of technology did long distance coverage, and these two technologies brought new aspects to journalism. This also made lots of people loose their jobs in the printing area but it also creates more jobs in technological field which majority of them might not be familiar with. Nowadays, we have mobile devices which includes lots of apps and helps other to communicate with each other better and faster. There are lots of apps such as Facebook, Instagram, twitter and others which allows to receive their news at the moment, which puts the area of journalism low. There is a problem with this kind of advancement because the news might not be reliable. Many people working in the journalism field are also heavily dependent on a technology and maybe it's a evolution. In the journalism field people lean more towards entertainment departments rather than focusing on news because of people's area of interest. Journalism has changed according to the needs of people and what they want.
