4. What I Learned In Business Today


  1. Today in business I watched a video that brought to light several truths that are affecting the media industry currently.
  2. As it turns out, the media industry is losing a lot of money because of the recession and the arrival of news on the internet.
  3. The recession is making it more difficult for the media companies to make money because of the fact that there are people who don't have the money to be subscribing to a newspaper any more. It is also hard for the media because of the fact that there aren't many people willing to sit on their couch and watch the news. 
  4. The internet is making things more difficult for the media industry because of its convenience. If someone wants to know what news is current, then it isn't much effort for the viewer to simply look up on the internet what news they wish to know. Another reason why the internet is a much more useful tool for getting the news is because there can be many different sources on the internet telling the same story but in different opinions. 
  5. In my opinion as an aspiring journalist, I believe that finding out different opinions regarding a subject can allow the next writer to give a much more detailed description of the subject at hand by writing the description unbiased. As a reader; although I may have a biased opinion, I think that having an understanding of something with different views is far more informative than a simple, biased opinion.
