The Digital Age

With the creation of the World Wide Web, it is becoming increasingly easier for a person to post whether it being a video, audio, or text, about something of interest. In terms of the news, news reporters no longer have to be on the scene because their audience can simply record or capture a picture of the incident and send it to the web; making the reporter’s job a whole lot easier, all while keeping their audience entertained. So, nowadays, posting news online can spread like wildfire, in the sense that people will immediately know what’s going on. As newspapers become more advanced, the way they see it, their audience will continue with the demands of making videos online. In addition, people who may have comments towards something they have seem online can comment on it, and respond to an earlier post. While this may all be exciting, I think with the capability of posting comments, it could go out of hand, and people might get physical online; tormenting other viewers. So, while this new media is inviting, it could be a call for catastrophe.
