What is journalism for?

In chapter I was able to answer the question more than once through out the text. Now I can conclude and round the idea of wahats journalism for by saying that is the global idea about our lives from an uncensored point of diagnostic. What I mean by this is that we as humans always want to be informed about things that surround us but as humans is impossible to be in more then one place at an specific time. But journalism when is legit and original give us the information and keep us informed about everything that is happening no mattering if we are close to it or far away. As I was reading the chapter there was something that really catch my attention and it was mainly when they give a quick over view of the situation that was taking place in Poland, I cant imagine exactly the feeling of getting up one day realizing that there is no way to see what’s is going on the world or even just to see how the weather is going to be that day. The feeling of frustration at which Poland’s were exposes it was really big.

As time passes journalism has grown tremendously but still as the freedom of journalism grows the way in which the government try to attack the journalism and the need of the news changes. Even after such a long period of time in which these situations start taking place. Some how we still see how the goverment try to apply the power that they have to hide information that we as readers need. Even if there are different type of readers there is always something that will take our attention just because that is how people get the idea of colleting information but at the end it all conclude with the fact that journalism is the most contextual and straight way to get the news without deviations.
