                                                 Social Media in Journalism
This chapter talked about how social media plays a role in journalism.One of the biggest changes caused by social media is that it brings an increased level of interaction between the journalists and their audience. It also shortens the time span needed to get news out effectively and to a mass audience. 
The advent of the increased relevance of social media has also made it harder for journalists to be as objective as they were trained to be.There is a growing feeling that as time passes, traditional forms of broadcast and print media will increasingly become second to social media.Ultimately, the journalism industry has to change in order to keep up with a  younger demographic.
