What impact do you think social media has on the way news is gathered and reported?
I believe that a large proportion of news is now delivered online, as we can access news articles through websites or see stories when scrolling down our news feeds on social media. However, i also believe that this way of presenting news has led to there being a large amount of 'false news' online, with many articles being manipulated to gain online views which therefore produces a larger profits for news agencies. This also makes news more accessible and we could suggest that it makes young people more aware or current events given that this younger age group makes up a large proportion of social media users.
