And while bloggers have also been accused to being influenced by economic and political forces extensively in their reporting, the Internet in general and social media specifically creates a highly effective sounding board of dissenting voices and opinions. The public is much more likely to comment on any reporting that is clearly driven by ulterior motives; there is very little tolerance for pandering and being blatant in ones' writing or reporting, as the entire world can literally call a journalist on their integrity if it appears they are only saying what their sponsors want them to (Bernoff, Li, 2008)
Paradoxically these same weaknesses of traditional journalism have served as foundation of the future of Internet- and social media-based journalism. For the first time audiences can now debate and converse with the journalists who are providing the news, and this has served as a catalyst of active collaboration, debate, which is the foundation of a strong government (Hermes, 2006)
The intent of this analysis is to provide a historical context as to how the Internet is changing journalism today, what the key technologies are that are impacting journalism, and assess the impact of social media on the journalism profession. The Internet has swiftly progressed from a news-gathering platform to a publishing medium (Loop, 1999) This transition has drastically re-ordered the economics of news reporting and analysis, and also has led to entirely unforeseen ethical, legal and regulatory implications of journalistic practices and integrity (Nancy, 2000)
With the accelerating speed of reporting there is are emerging challenges surrounding accountability and ethics however (Overholser, 2009). Balancing the convenience and speed of the Internet as a publishing platform on the one hand, and the unique, highly targeted nature of social media on the other is a strategic conflict the industry will see for the long-term (Murdoch, 2010)
The nature of journalism itself is changing fast as the accumulated effects of the Internet reorder the economics of this industry (Thiel, 2005). With the rapid shifts in the underlying technologies increasing the speed of reporting, there is a corresponding shift in how news is produced and published (Nancy, 2000)

The adoption of these applications has been a turning point in journalism globally. The inflexion point for the journalism industry began when the Internet and its rapid publishing platforms allowed journalists greater flexibility and peed in reporting their stories (Picard, 2009)
Technological Effects on Journalism Through the Internet The traditional processes and roles of journalism are going through disruptive economic, social, and political change as a result of the pervasive influence of the Internet and social media. The nature of journalism itself is changing fast as the accumulated effects of the Internet reorder the economics of this industry (Thiel, 2005)
0 design framework as defined by O'Reilly (2006) sought to bring the reader and creator of the content into a conversation that occurs in real-time. The second generation of technologies that are today having a very significant effect on journalism include social media sites, especially Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and photo sharing sites Instagram and many others (York, 2011)
This makes it very important to document as much of that event as possible, and to capture those images, as well as the voice of the people who are there, in the moment of the events. Documentary, Bruzzi says, has a purpose that is not met by film today (Bruzzi 67)
Audiences of all stripes do what they will with images, no matter how instrumental their makers. (Rabinowitz 1)
. The camera created a reservoir of human observation in the simplest possible way (Renov 171-172)
.being a human being firs, and a journalist and filmmaker second (Scranton 2006)
The country, as well as its enemy, has long used media houses to promote agendas. With the entry of Castro, media houses that had profited during Batista's rule, came under pressure from castro's government (Teering 21-24)
These shifts have made it necessary for states to limit their interference on media and press institutions. While press freedom is fundamental for media practitioners in the 21st century, it is also important in equal measure for preservation of such rights through legal amendments or constitutions' of nations (Reese 173-187)
In Cuba, what one refers to freedom of speech is subject to censorship by the government. Although there is a perception that freedom of the press in Cuba exists, it is just a public notion (Salwen 139-153)
The state might classify information as sensitive and disclosure of such information may interfere with its sovereignty. Media laws in many governments trace its origin to sunshine laws, which are essential in defining the interest of the nation (Deuze 448-451)
On the other hand, social responsibility theory concerns with the responsibility of the press to the society. The theory requires members of the press to respect freedoms of citizens and to uphold moral standards while undertaking tasks (Machado 18-21)
Organizations, on the other hand, need to concentrate on missions that foster journalist' integrations in a society. Additionally, an organization, which protect press freedoms need to write protest letters to those countries with poor press freedom rating, and finally countries and organization need to have conferences where members of the public and press practitioners may get training (Mukherjee 339) Conclusion Freedom of the media is a very vital component to the preservation of human rights of members of the journalism fraternity
Asawa only used crocheted wire as material for her work; Banner employed large graphite canvases and block letters as material for hers. In creating her work Asawa used a method that "yielded fluid forms with structure and surface mutually defining one another via a repetitive, loopy line with just enough strength to hold a shape when suspended"(Miles, Dec
