Deciphering Mobile Journalism: An All-Inclusive Definition of Mobile Journalism in the Modern Era

Abstract

Mobile phones and internet access have revolutionized many aspects of modern life, including journalism. Mobile journalism (MoJo) employs mobile technology to acquire, produce, and distribute news worldwide. While MoJo offers numerous advantages, it also brings forth challenges related to ethics, misinformation, and legal implications. This paper defines mobile journalism, discusses its pros, cons, and obstacles. I study scholarly publications and research papers to discover MoJo’s dimensions, criteria, and indicators. Based on this information, I offer an organic definition that stresses MoJo’s purpose: to collect and transmit news and information in a symmetrical, balanced, and ethical manner, using mobile technology to reach audiences quickly and effectively. This study explicates a clear and inclusive definition, identifies major research gaps, and suggests future research on MoJo.
