How Do Emerging Technologies Affect Journalism?

Based off this semester, there are two and even more ways that emerging technologies/social media has affected journalism.  One way is that is brings news even faster than reading a newspaper. Ten years ago, you would have to wait until the paperboy or newsman came to get your daily/news. Now you log on to your computer or smart device and get new in less than 10 seconds. Another way is that you can see news locally using social media. You can use twitter, instagram and other social networks to find out and see what's happening around the world by just using hash tags. Emerging technologies/social media has played a major role in many ways to affect journalism in the past and present.
