The Power and Pitfalls of Digital Journalism

You are now more powerful than a network news anchor. We shifted from waiting for the

morning paper to having the entire world scream at us in real-time. Journalism used

to be about gatekeepers deciding what you see, but the digital revolution flipped

the script. Now, the audience controls the feed. But here is the

catch. With great power comes massive confusion. We are drowning in clickbait and

fake news because speed is winning over accuracy. Real reporting isn't just a tweet; it

is verifying facts before hitting send. If you don't question the source, you are not staying

informed, you are just being programmed.
