From the Southern:
Reporters cannot be everywhere and cannot know about all events taking place in their communities. In that sense, citizen journalism may help to broaden the
kind of events that are reported. Citizen journalists can be a help by posting interesting things they see throughout the day or direct hints on their blogs that lead professional journalist’s in the right direction to finding a story.As long as citizen journalists are remaining a help and not a burden, they are a good addition to the news world.
Citizen journalists and professional journalists work together for one purpose—to inform. They’ve quickly formed a symbiotic relationship that, through a variety of different ways, brings the news to your fingertips.
