Internship Report On Working as Sub-Editor at Rtv Online

Abstract

Even before the arrival of television and radio, initially newspaper industries alone used to cover and share information worldwide. According to Lunden, newspaper industry or print journalism more specifically has been with us for about“300 years. But technological revolution brought tremendous and huge changes in the media sector that it opened up new dimensions for journalism. For instance, television changed the whole idea of reaching people and took mass media into a whole new level.The latest revolution in journalism came with the advent of Internet. Newspaper industries went from being mechanical to computer production systems. For example, journalists gradually started replacing their typewriters with computers. Internet gave journalism a new shape by creating a versatile platform for its both readers and writers. It created 'online journalism'. Print journalism from the very beginning had its own distinct characteristics, principles, structures, routines of production, way of addressing audiences and reporting news stories. Onlin journalism too has its own principles and characteristics.I have done my internship as an online sub-editor in the online section of Rtv Online. I experienced just how fast the world of journalism become has and also how online journalism is a whole another dimension from print, television and radio journalism. An online journalist must be well-versed in multitasking, must be a fast thinker and obviously as the old saying goes- jack of all trades, master of none. All my works were published under the byline 'online desk' but the initial of my name ZaberHosain (initial- জেএম) was added in every news published
