  • How digital journalism has affected traditional journalism

    Par
    Digital journalism has sparked controversy between progressive and traditional media and journalists. The debate on whether digital journalism is a danger to traditional media is complex and never-ending.

    For the past few weeks, a caravan of about 4,000 immigrants, mostly Hondurans, fleeing their country have been making their way up Central America until they reach the United States.

In an attempt to escape from reality, the citizens of the United States and mostly, the media, try to cling to any seemingly better human being than Donald Trump.
