People these days seek for more and faster news as they are eager to know what is happening around them. In the olden days, media organizations used to publish news every week. It was sufficient for people in those days as that was the only way of receiving the news. Nowadays, news media publish their content for almost every few minutes due to the demand for news from people. Yet, the people are never satisfied with the speed of news, so they seek faster news to be delivered to them. Poor media organizations can’t rely on much and force the reporters in hurrying with the news content as there are many steps to be passed before publishing news.

A reporter will need to arrive at the place they are assigned to collect news. Then, they will need to collect and record every information they have collected. That information will be transcripted and written into a news form to be sent to the editors. Editors will go through the news and edit or filter if there are any corrections needed to be done. If there are major mistakes, the news will be sent back to the reporter for him/her to rewrite the news. If the news is good to be published, it will be sent to a chief editor for extra checking before publication. Appropriate and relevant pictures will be attached to the news by another department first. When the news is complete, it will finally be published.

Phew! That was a long way to publishing news. It looks so simple to us as news is only written on a page or two but it takes a long way before it is published. With such methods, how could the media organizations cope with the demands of new readers in publishing news even faster than now?
