The Global Village Brought Evolution in Journalism

This term, "The Global Village", was coined by him to indicate “One Market Under God”. In simple words, it indicates mass consumption of images, media, and content by the global audiences. It took a little longer for the world to adopt the platform of global media, but finally, the world is changed. The evolution in journalism has begun in many countries and these countries are those that have adopted rules of 21st-century journalism.

Since late 1990, in India, liberalization about the mass media and communication started.

It is now influenced by the global factors and that’s the reason the citizens of any country must have access to the global media, content, and images. Some of the African states have also started welcoming this evolution in journalism. Of course, there are some countries like China that are still behind in this momentum and still restrict countrymen from accessing global media.
