Abstract

Journalism is such a word, on hearing about it even today we start imagining media, reporters, newspapers, news, news channel, etc. Journalism has always been forward for its social work and the work of dissemination and promotion of information. Within which working news reporter, news anchor, news editor, news writer, video editor, broadcasting team, editor, writer, a journalist writing news for newspapers and compiling news, etc. have been identified only in the context of journalism. Journalism was earlier used by the public only to get information. Where people's morning started with "Aaj Ki Taza Khabar" i.e., through a newspaper or morning bulletin broadcast on the news channel. In the initial period, this series of conveying the news to the public was included in the form of journalism in such a way that on one side there used to be an audience or reader and on the other side the broadcaster was involved. But due to modernization, journalism also got the support of new and cutting-edge technologies, in which the category of our smart mobile phones was kept in the first place. In today's modern era, life seems incomplete without a mobile phone, the condition is such that a person may live without food for a day, but hardly a person can live without a mobile phone even for an hour in today's time. In today's time, mobile phones have made journalism simple and accessible, but have added some negative aspects as well. The research paper presented shows the fact that how our mobile phones have affected journalism in the modern era. How Mobile Phones Linked Journalism to Public Opinion Ideas Mobile phones have become an important tool of modern-day journalism.
