Abstract :
Newsgathering is one of the challenging tasks that journalists have to perform. The emergence of social media is believed to combat the difficulties of newsgathering by giving them an opportunity to monitor the content online. A recent trend of sourcing practices with social media in writing articles has been witnessed at large. The existing literature also suggests that social media is being embraced as a news sourcing tool by mainstream media. Newspaper Journalists use social media in every aspect of their work to remain competitive during the digital times. This paper is an attempt to explore the journalistic use of social media tools for news gathering techniques.
