television owned by the same
company

- Ownership Convergence
- Driving Convergence
- It change attitudes and
lifestyles of news
consumers
- The growth of the World
Wide Web has introduced
another competitor for
advertising, and at the
same time the Web has
produced more niche
markets
- Convergence makes it
possible to reach many
more members of an
audience
- It change attitudes and
lifestyles of news
consumers
- Barriers
- Legislation that forbids a company
from owning a daily newspaper and
a television channel in the same
market has understandably limited
the convergence process
- Union concerns for their
members’ future
- Companies with strong
mono-media traditions
such as in the UK or France
tend to focus on their
traditional strength
- Convergence included a
focused leadership, the
same owner, a flexible
culture, co-location of media
outlets, previous
relationships between
potential partners and no
unions
- Legislation that forbids a company
from owning a daily newspaper and
a television channel in the same
market has understandably limited
the convergence process
- So....
- Convergence produces many
challenges, for both journalists
and publishers.
- Convergence is about
doing better journalism
- Journalism needs to be a product of
‘‘sense-making based on synthesis,
verification and fierce independence.
- Introduce convergence as a way to
save money, reporters could
become too busy to verify the
information they find and resort to
publishing material supplied by
professional spin-doctors
- Convergence produces many
challenges, for both journalists
and publishers.
