What is a negative effect on the rise in citizen journalism?

1. It poses difficulties to the audience about what to believe.

One big problem with this type of journalism is that it will be difficult for people to decide what to believe, unlike traditional journalism, where it is safe to assume the information disseminated is factual. This means that citizen media should be checked and re-checked for accuracy to produce news that is suitable to print. As you can see, anyone these days can record and write anything and then present it as fact, so it is important to remember that we are dealing with humans here, and it is our nature to edit information to our own likeness, which can make unofficial news unreliable.

2. It has limited audience in some cases.

By publishing their work on social media, citizen journalists will have limited audience, such as only to their friends. And while blogging will make their audience a bit greater, it would never be as widespread as international broadcast on radio or television. Basically, citizen journalism just do not have an audience that is large enough to make a real change across the world.

Whether you like it or not, the availability of modern technology and the internet means that citizen journalism is here to stay. Nevertheless, it is seen by many people to help journalism in general for the better, though it difficult to ignore that it is also seen a threat to the media and its future. With the advantages and disadvantages presented above, do you think this form of journalism is good for society as a whole, or not?
