Abstract

In the past, journalism was primarily utilized by the public as a means of obtaining information. People's mornings would begin with "Aaj Ki Taza Khabar," either through a newspaper or a morning bulletin on a news channel. Initially, the dissemination of news to the public was accomplished through journalism, with one side consisting of the audience or readers and the other side being the broadcasters. However, due to modernization, journalism has also benefited from new and cutting-edge technologies, with the category of smart mobile phones being at the forefront. Mobile phones have made journalism easily accessible in today's modern era but have also introduced negative aspects. This research paper examines how mobile phones have impacted journalism in the contemporary world, specifically how they have linked journalism to public opinion ideas, and how mobile journalism (MOJO) has become a part of society as a medium of communication. This study also shares thoughts on the future of digital journalism with mobile phones for next-level journalism by individuals, news channels, and organizations. Mobile phones have become a critical tool for modern-day journalism, and this research article offers insights into the evolving landscape of journalism in a mobile-dominated world. It highlights the benefits and challenges associated with MOJO and provides a glimpse into the future of digital journalism.
