Abstract:
In its processes of creating and disseminating news, the media aims to satisfy
the public’s needs for information and knowledge as well as entertainment. Beyond the
traditional publication of news via traditional media such as print, radio or television,
the new trend is accessing news online. Blogs, forums, social networks and search
engines are all environments in which information is becoming increasingly visible,
increasingly accessed and increasingly read. Warts and all: these means are defined by a
series of characteristics, but they also conceal certain dangers: ideological polarization,
filter bubbles, selective exposure etc.
Keywords: Internet, old media, new media, blogs, forums, social platforms,
citizen journalism.
