Produktbeschreibung
This book is on the use of new media as a source of news in Oromia Mass Media Organization. Particularly it focuses on the opportunities and challenges of using the New media by journalists. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were applied in the study underpinning the book. The result showed that almost all the journalists lack the knowledge to browse information from the Internet. Majority of them have no access to computer or Internet in their media organization. The journalists are far behind the information about events that are taking place worldwide as a result of lack of access to the Internet. Language barrier is also found to be another aspect that contributes to the low level use of new media by journalists. The problem of poor access to Internet is attributed mainly to the poor infrastructure of this media house. Lack of financial resource and less attention to new media sector is also another problem. Therefore, there is a strong need to direct priority to the expansion of new media infrastructure in the media organizations and building the capacity of journalists.
