CITIZEN JOURNALISM AS AN ALTERNATIVE MEDIA AREA

Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 50

Abstract

Citizen journalism is one of the currents that emerged as a solution to the problematic journalism that is valid in the media. The main movement point of this movement is not the mass communication media at the source but the target group which is reader audience and audience. Citizen journalism aimed to involve citizens more in the news production process and public and citizen-oriented journalism. This type of journalism is a practice in which the citizen is involved in the making and writing stages of the news and continues to be broadcast until the event that is the subject of the matter or until the conclusion of the matter for the citizen ends. Citizen journalism produces news, beyond being a source of news.
