Media in the Digital Age
\n
The rise of the internet has transformed media consumption. Traditional media (newspapers, TV) face competition from digital platforms. Citizen journalism allows ordinary people to report news via smartphones and social media. However, this also raises concerns about misinformation and the quality of information.

Reading Text
\n
"Social media has changed the way we communicate. Platforms like Facebook and Twitter allow users to share news instantly with millions of people. While this democratizes information, it also creates challenges. Fake news spreads faster than ever, and algorithms can create echo chambers where people only see content that confirms their existing beliefs. Media literacy – the ability to evaluate information critically – has become more important than ever."
