Media face challenges in Maintaining the wall



Hello, everybody in this blog I will be talking about the media faces. Which I will give you an example of Media face of DIY news.

Veteran journalist Laurie Oakes is predicting the rise of DIY journalism as political parties, interest groups and corporations set up newsrooms to try to sidestep scrutiny by the media.
''It's not hard - all you need is a laptop, 50 bucks for a video camera and you're away,'' he said on Thursday.He sees a gloomy economic future for mainstream media outlets but believes Australians will still want authoritative, fact-based news.
Oakes delivered an in-depth analysis of the future of the media in Canberra in the Walkley centenary lecture.
 
The annual Walkley media conference is being held in Canberra on Thursday and Friday to celebrate Canberra's centenary next year, and to recognise the national capital's important role in Australian life and the critical role that journalism plays in federal politics.
The prestigious Walkley awards honouring high achieving journalists will be presented at a black-tie dinner on Friday at Parliament House.
Oakes, himself a multi-award winner, said he wanted to be optimistic about the future of political journalism and the Parliament House-based press gallery.The symbiotic relationship between politicians and journalists is now changing.
