Journalism

Journalism is the practice of collecting, assessing, creating, and presenting news and information to the public. It involves the investigation of current events, issues, and trends through various mediums, including print, digital, audio, and visual formats. Journalists aim to provide accurate, fair, and timely reporting on matters of public interest, often holding power to account and contributing to informed citizenship. The field encompasses various sub-disciplines, such as investigative journalism, broadcast journalism, and online journalism, each with its methods and audience reach. Ethics and adherence to standards of truthfulness, objectivity, and accountability are fundamental to the practice of journalism, distinguishing it from other forms of communication and content creation.
