Is there anything left to say?
Nowadays, we are force to see and read lots of news from bad to good ones and it’s hard to believe all of them, sometimes none of them. Something is going on! Everyone interprets the news by his own language and situation. And news can have different affection on the audiences or readers. Usually, the bad news is like movies on television in a very funny and sad way. When I hear that Amy Winehouse died because of drug! I don’t really know how should react by hearing this news and it’s very odd and funny. Back to old days, news was very important and could change the people’s life completely. But now, I don’t have any idea at all.
Who is the Blogger?
The blogger is someone who is free whom can write anything about anything. It’s that simple without any limitation. They usually write about any topic. It depends on their interests. Topic is like movie, critic, politic, lifestyle, and sport and so on. They can write anywhere and anytime. They can include their opinion and there is no editor to sensor their articles or posts. When the idea “blog” came everyone was excited because they felt power to write down their own opinion about their thinking and idea. The day, when you don’t have too much connection to others and the internet was so limited, you could just read news and discuss with others with newspapers, group mails, and television. And it wasn’t too satisfaction. But after a while, by coming blog tool in the hand of people to help them express themselves and talk and share their thought with everyone even the people from too far away from them. Isn’t it great? And it goes further and further and now you can make very simple free blog for yourselves and just write down. Sometimes it causes many problems for you and sometimes it makes you famous and money.
Who is the journalist?
Journalist is a very old career for who like to go around and make some news for their newspaper, company or websites. They can write down any news then collect them and send them to editor for print. But the big problem is you are so limited and all the times your news and articles are under the knife of censorship by editor, company and government. You can put any news or opinion on newspaper or radio or television. And if you don’t agree with this censorship you have to find another source to make money for yourself. However, journalism is not as simple and easy as blogging. They interfere with people and accidents. They sometimes must go inside the fire and capture the fire. They lost their life just for their belief and job. Journalism is a very pure job if they reflect the reality. We, as a normal people with normal job, usually don’t have news from other countries or people all around the world. The journalists are the only ones who bring news for us and shine the light for our blind eyes. My favorite job in journalism industry is photo journalism because they don’t talk and they just capture the moment and speak with their photos. And most of them times, the journalist are so defenseless and no one protect them from dangerous moments, war, and accidents.
Can we put both sides in the same side?
The good news is the journalism and blogging are a match couples these days. Usually, journalists have their own blog; another word is who doesn’t have blog? Everyone knows how to make blog and just write any news, opinions and thought. Journalists are really alike and they want to express their every moment of memory and save them somewhere which are belong to them. By this method, they have both side which is their job and opinions. They send their news material to company and write down their article in blog without any censor.
I truly agree with this. Bloggers and Journalists have differences. What led them as one is what they do; they write. But where the materials end up is different, as in for bloggers they write in their blogs, and journalists write as a job. Bloggers have freedom while journalists don't.
ReplyDelete@ Ana yip : thanks for your comment.
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned a good tip: "journalism and blogging are a match couples these days". I agree with you in this case, but if the different way. I don't think that a journalist can write in his personal weblog, whatever he cannot write in the newspaper. There are some blogs which can publish their own ideas in a critical way. So I think Journals and weblogs complete each other and we need both of them to know better
