The “crisis” of journalism
Among journalism platforms, Callison and Young (2020) consider that newspaper organizations are the hardest hit by the causes identified as technological and economic, which suffer an ongoing decline in the advertising revenue for about 2 decades caused due to the technological change and an increased shift to the internet digital ecosystem of journalism. McChesney (2011) supports this claim by stating that there have been substantial cuts in the number of journalists at traditional commercial business media organizations model across the country from buyouts, layoffs, outsourcing practices, and closures, leading to media outlets getting underfunded and thus not being able to produce "quality journalism” content anymore . Pritchard and Sauvageau (1998) study found that 97% of newsrooms were white, and with continued cuts and emptier newsrooms there is a danger of hegemonic representation of people of colour or Indigenous nations minorities, which might lead to further misrepresentation and generalization of stereotypes closely tied with minority races and crime reports . It is important it is to understand the development of media technologies and their effect in relationship to larger social systems, organizations, and cultures, such as, for example, how citizen journalism could help to expose politicians who are caught on spot without a pre-written script which is essential for democracy.
