Journalism is an industry that plays a very important role in shaping up a country. A country is known and represented by its media and if a country has media which is free and has no restrictions whatsoever, then that country’s media would produce one of the finest qualities of content.
The journalism industry has overseen many things and has also faced many hurdles in the past few years. These hurdles and growth has somewhat changed the way how these journalists do journalism and also has affected their followers and readers.
As we all know that this era is known as the “Digital Era”, we’ve seen many things transition from one to another. People have started to work from home or are working from remote places or they’ve picked up freelancing as a profession. Same goes for journalism as many people have switched from newspapers to T.V channels and subscriptions.
While we are on the subject of journalism, let’s discuss how subscriptions and advertisements play their parts into becoming a source of income for journalists and agencies. We know that agencies and news channels find sponsors and companies who want them to run their ads for which they are willing to pay a good sum of money. That way, they can cover some of the costs of their production.
Just like these sponsored ads, channels even provide services like subscriptions and text alerts. These things work in a way that they provide the consumer or their subscriber access to all of their premium channels which have all the latest news and updates. Similarly, they offer text alert services where they notify their subscribers of any hot news or controversies that are trending on social media.
While eCcommerce, events and fundraisers are an effective way to collect funds for journalism, it would be really difficult in 2022 to raise money if one resorts to them. As Covid and Omicron are spreading throughout the world again, it seems pretty clear that public gatherings and events would receive a ban as people will avoid going out into public gatherings.
We all know that because of Covid, companies have been facing losses and because of these losses, people have been laid off. Just like any other industry, journalism also faced the same problem and many journalists were laid off because the companies could not afford to pay them as Covid was at its peak and businesses were down.
A survey was conducted by the Reuters Institute for Study of Journalism, which showed that many media heads and agencies had plans and strategies that involved a subscription based model that would allow them to get through another waves of this deadly virus.
As the future seems uncertain for everyone, journalism will be the industry that we feel will reach further heights. As people will refrain from going out, they will buy more and more subscriptions and thus increase the revenue for agencies and news channels.
