Tutorial 12
Similar to previous weeks, this tutorial we got into our groups again and discussed our projects. Our group is up to date with all the tasks and the project seems to be coming along quite well. There was an issue that had to be resolved regarding a certain article. I brought up on our Facebook group page that I felt two articles were too similar to each other. We eventually all agreed to rectify the problem and edited one of the articles. Brian came around to our group and we discussed what we have learnt from doing this project. I feel that I have definitely learnt a lot about the media industry in regards to the transition of print to digitalization. It also seems like such a coincidence that while doing this project that the newspaper MX was axed. I was listening on the radio on this matter and the commentator suggested that this was due to people having more interest with the content on their phone than MX. Even though MX was a free newspaper. I never grabbed a copy of this paper due to this reason. The paper didn’t really target my demographic and it contained mostly celebrity news which I really don’t care about.
