REPORTERS, DOCUMENTATION AND CITIZEN’S JOURNALISM

Abstract

The quick technological development registered on the Media in the past twenty years has specially affected its written aspects, although the main focus was on the audiovisual field initially. This brisk pace has taken place in the informative writting due to the intensive introduction of modern technology which has produced a relevant tools and methods convergency between fields previously apart, as were informative data and journalistic reporterism. Both fields have found and developped a convergence level reached thanks to the Cybernetic World, and even merge in the so called Journalism 2.0 or Citizen Journalism. In there data researchers and journalists use the same tools and methods through Internet. At the same time, multinational and multidisciplinary companies get together to form world wide corporations operating on database as well as on spreading journalistic reports.
