CITIZEN JOURNALISM
Citizen journalism, also known as public or participatory journalism, is the act of citizens playing an active role in the process of collecting, reporting, analyzing, and disseminating news and information. The intent of this participation is to provide independent, reliable, accurate, wide-ranging, and relevant information that a democracy requires.
Citizen Journalism is part of Business Exchange, suggested by
