This document discusses the challenges posed to traditional media by new media in the online age. It defines media as both a technology that enables communication as well as the social and cultural practices surrounding that technology. It analyzes changes in the media landscape and their implications for journalism practice. Specifically, it notes that new media have blurred lines between producers and consumers of news and raised questions around objectivity, autonomy, and ethics for journalists. Citizen journalism is emerging as an addition to traditional forms.

Editor's Notes
- There are many mass communication models and theories but the transmission models (either in the form Shannon and Weaver prosed in 1949 or in the verbal form presented by Laswell) are the easiest to look at the changes in media scenery With students draw and expand on the simple transmission model of communication highlighting the roles media/new media played

- There were many studies done to determine whether there are any universal journalistic standards that would define the profession and its occupational ideology. It was concluded that journalists in elective democracies share similar characteristics and speak of similar values in the context of their daily work, but apply these in a variety of ways to give meaning to what they do.

- Due to the lack of cooperation between journalists, online journalism was perceived as outmoded and unsatisfactory, the online versions of news being the same as in print A revision of the journalistic model was necessary
- Discussion on the future of media in the case of depicted in the film. Is it credible? Is it a believable future? What are the things that seem odd in it? How prepared are you for such a future?
