What is Journalism?

-
In this life, we didn't realize if our daily lives are very close to the world of "Journalism". Most of the people have already known about the Journalism this day but nonetheless not of them have known it. In this article I'm going to discuss about the definition of journalism itself and types of journalism. So, we will know more about journalism.

    According to Wikipedia, Journalism refers to the production and distribution of reports on recent events. The word journalism applies to the occupation, as well as citizen journalists using methods of gathering information and utilizing literary techniques. Journalistic media include print, television, radio, internet, and, in the past, newsreels.

     According to the expert, Robert Niles, he said that journalism is a form of writing that tells people about things that really happened, but they might not have known about it already.

The types of journalism :

1. Advocacy Journalism
       Advocacy journalism deals with writing to advocate particular viewpoints or influence the opinions of the audience. It also describes the use of journalism techniques to promote a specific political or social cause.

2. Broadcast Journalism
       Journalism which is the field of news and journals which are broadcast or in other words we can say that it is published by electrical methods, instead of the older methods such as printed newspaper and posters. For example like radio and television.

3. Investigative Journalism
      Journalism that tries to discover information of public interest that someone is trying to hide.It is also includes serious crimes, political corruption or corporate wrongdoing.

4. Tabloid Journalism
      Tabloid journalism is a newspaper of small format giving the news is condensed form, usually with illustrated often sensational material. It puts more stress on crime stories, astrology, gossip columns about the personal lives of celebrities and sports stars and junk food news.

5. Yellow Journalism         
     Yellow journalism is also known as sensationalism and it is writing which emphasizes exaggerated claims or rumors. Yellow journalism which highlights little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspaper.

      We can conclude that actually journalism is a news. Every news is named as journalism, even though it is just a small thing. But as long as it is an event or something that interesting or such kinds of information, all of them is journalism. Journalism as one part of mass communication and media studies. It is the practice of investigation and reporting of events, issues, and the latest trends to a broad audiences.

        Do you know what the interview is? Maybe some of you have already known what the interview is. The word "interview" sounds familiar in our life. But, let me explain again what is the meaning of interview itself. Based on the definition from Wikipedia, the interview is a conversation between two or more people and takes place between the resource person and the interviewer. The purpose of the interview is to get the right information from trusted sources. Interviews are conducted by submitting a number of questions from the interviewer to the resource person.            Sometimes, indirectly, we actually often do the interviews in our daily life, but in an informal way. We can take an example from some incidents that happened in our society or near our environment. Usually, indirectly we will ask any questions to the people who were at the site of the incident to get rid of our curiosity. We usually ask “What happened?”, “When did the incident happen?”, “How

Kita ini kenapa?

Kita ini lagi kenapa sih? Mungkin pertanyaan ini memang tidak berdasar. Bisajadi hanya aku saja yang merasa kita sedang kenapa-kenapa. Sebenarnya aku sudah lelah bertanya pada diri sendiri ada apa dengan kita? Tidak pernah satu kalipun aku berfikir bahwa kita akan berakhir seperti ini. Lucu memang. Harus saling melewatkan berapa kali lagi? Sampai pada akhirnya kita sadar bahwa sedang saling mencari. Sebentar, mungkin saja hanya aku yang mencari. Aku bingung. Apakah ini sudah akhir atau bukan? Otak dan perasaanku dipaksa untuk berfikir beribu kali, ada apa denganmu? Ada apa denganku? Aku dipaksa oleh keadaan untuk tetap 'haha hihi' di depan semua orang. Nyatanya aku sedang tidak baik-baik saja. Aku tidak tau isyarat mana yang mengartikan bahwa aku harus mundur atau aku harus bagaimana.      Sepertinya semesta memang tidak pernah mengizinkanku untuk merasakan bagaimana rasanya bahagia hingga akhir. Sejak awal aku memang ragu. Aku tidak siap untuk memulai dan merasakan pahitnya
