Mass Communication

Social Media has made huge impact on Journalism without a doubt but the views of people differ whether the impact is positive or negative. The people in support argue that the information is available to many people simultaneously at the same time and people can express their opinions about it too. Hence it increases awareness and spreads the information more efficiently. The people in against argue that it spreads all sorts of negative behaviour like racism, casteism etc. And promotes communal hatred by spreading biases information without much filter. But whether the impact is positive or negative, all would agree that it has changed the way we percieve both Journalism and Social Media. In a sense, they combined and have become one entity.
