The similarity is obviously shown in between bloggers and journalists. Their main purpose is to deliver contents to the audience. However, there are still many differences that can differentiate bloggers and journalists and they although are those who form the media, however they both have different motives.
Bloggers share ideas, information and feelings and the more truthful it is, the more valuable it is as the content created by bloggers are consumed and being discussed, corrected or even being criticized by people worldwide. Journalists however, create content for the mass media as they are being paid and the editors or the organisations controls the flow of content to deliver messages they think are true to the audiences. The truthful of the content are often depend to the content publishers. News that are being published earliest are often considered the most valuable among journalists.
Hence, in my opinion, since both of them provides the same functionality, why not support the more truthful ones?

Blogging is indeed like writing personal opinion and some of the information or contents maybe false. The bloggers just write out what they feel about and everything is based on their own perception.

ReplyDeleteI do agree that Kay's sayings that the main purpose for both bloggers and journalists is to deliver the contents to the audience. There are still many differences that can differentiate between them. However, nowadays it seems that blogging is getting more popular and the readers tend to believe the information in blogs instead of the articles written by the journalists.
