Mark Potts, Recovering Journalist blog, on part 1 talks about mentions how the innovation of online video such as YouTube as another way of informing people of news. An example Potts uses is The New York Time’s, David Pogue, his guerilla-style videos get attention with his humor and personality. Now millions of people are watching these videos through the popularity of YouTube. Another good point that Potts mention is how print news should showcase newsroom personalities in videos that will entertain and inform. I personally like getting my news on T.V and other shows that I watch that inform me on some news is The Daily Show with John Stewart. He makes news comedic and entertaining and could be good way to get the youth to want to watch the news.
The creation of the iPhone has also been another way for media to reach people. There are different applications for different niches such as for sports, whether, celebrity news, fashion, world news and local news. The Weather Channel and MLB are two of many media applications that are being used. The MLB application has scores, states, video, and other tools for the baseball fans. I own an iPhone and I installed The New York Times and I really like it because when I don’t have the chance to pick up the latest copy this application does gives me the latest news through my phone, which I think is more convenient for me.
What holds for the future of journalism is that print media will decrease, but online media will increase. Television media will remain the same and telephones will be another way for media awareness. These new ideas only prove my point in why I want to work for a tech company. Technology is always changing and is the future.

You make some good points here but, boy, does this piece need more editing. You've got redundant/repeated words ("talks about mentions how"), misspellings, subject-verb agreement problems, and sentence structure and punctuation problems.
ReplyDeleteHere a fix for one sentence: "An example Potts uses is The New York Times' David Pogue; his guerrilla-style videos get attention with his humor and personality."
Now it's your turn to fix the rest.
