The good old days of traditional media

Traditional medai is more for the keeper, its for an audience that would prefer hard copy and an audience that isnt well acquainted with the new media.
Traditional media differs vastly from social medai lets take a look nat how and maybe why.
With traditional media news quality is controlled, it has a scope which means that it givesan opportunity to communicatetheir message to the world and they use a more centrailzed approach to communicate their message, they also push for new news to be published daily that means traditional media require a much more larger amount of initial capital as compared to social media. Academically, traditional media is persued more so than social media this is because you get taught skills, tactics as to how you chase deadlines and get news that sells and techniques on traditional media and even inside into the history of traditional meaid. from the first newspaper to the battery radio and television.

When advertising  using traditional media it is done over a relatively shorter period, although time spent on gathering information and publishing on an article is longer, journalistst and publishers work on deadlines, they need to do research and aquire enough information with the risk that whatever you publish or broadcast needs to be accurate,  because once it goes viral theres no fixing it and changing things.

traditional media is intersting it has its up and down, goods and bad, nevertheless always a pleasure learing and discovering new and old ways of commynication and how it was done back, way back in time
