1) Is our news influenced by American cultural imperialism? What examples can you think of?
No because American cultural are for the Americans as to Hollywood movies and also the reason of funny videos that they would do. American news is found as a joke as to the statistics and also CNN videoing what was happening in Iraq but they didn't give the full facts straight which the soldiers wanted to know . British news is about politics and big stories which are about the country and the effects and changes that they're going through.
2) Has the increased globalisation of news improved the audience experience? How? Why?
We get to share out experiences globally as to with a click of a button on social media it would be out to all their friends. The audience have power to communicate and give opinion to the whole world just by using social media or using the internet. The positive side of this is the power audience have to send messages and look at coverage of news. However the negative side of this would be that these media giants are in power as to what they pick to choose for a story. Would be that audiences can be controlled on social media or be blocked by just a button from the people who own the site and it would show that audience are not in power and don't have a freedom of what to post.
3) Has globalisation benefited or damaged major news institutions? How? Why?
The benefit of this to the institution is that they don't have to have journalist everywhere when there is a crisis this would be because citizen journalism is really good for the institution how ever it would cut jobs and the information would not be true. Another benefit would be that the news institutions uses digital media and it is adapting with technology as the Mail on-line is the most read on-line newspaper with around 8 million readers. The damages however is social media and people putting news on there so for example this would be twitter, Facebook and also YouTube which would make people go visit. It kills off local news institutions as to not having to adapt to technology like big the media giants who can still survive. Globalisation is shown that overall news institutions are in a balance argument that they are reporting news and taking in citizen journalism but the readership however for other news institutions are not doing great as to no paywall or good journalists happening any more.
