NEWS - History P3 - Web news





following the widespread adoption of the internet almost all forms of media have moved online, television news being one of them, the internet as a medium allows for news programming to become further diversified and specialised, below are some examples:

TFL
Transport for London runs a youtube channel that produces(among other things), news packages. this is a fantastic example of the depth of specialisation and focus news programming can have in the internet age, an excellent example piece of programming from TFL's channel is rendered below:



This is a fantastic example of the diversification of news codes and codices, its short from, investigative style, the fact its presenting information that is in the public interest points more towards a news-style package rather than a short doc. In my opinion its almost a return to the previously mentioned Newsreel style of news reporting, small, self contained newscasts that are as short and follow the same codices as television news packages.
