Based on the readings and questions of journalistic integrity, responsibility, but yet reliance on corporations to fund media outlets. I suggest for TEAM TWO the following Research Question; What role does social media platforms (pedestrian journalism) play in keeping journalist and media outlets accountable.
Sub-Topics
– What has been the evolution of social media as news platforms? (Depict a blatant contradiction between media and social media post over 6-10 years old. Expound on it, give media response to call out)
-Has there been misinformation on popular news broadcast that can be easily depicted as false by an individuals social media post? (Recent misinformation on popular news channel by host, contradicted by many social media post)
-How has the public build greater trust in pedestrian journalism rather than conglomerates news corporations? (Successful indie/community funded news programs on YouTube/TikTok/blogger)
