• Democratisation process in media industry as reporters and journalists no longer need to work under big media business.
• Infrastructure and channels are not the problem; the key is how to come up with the best content
• Content is king
• Over next two to three years, trend of media channels will become clearer.

Conclusion
• Newspapers may be dying, but there are other channels ready to replace them.
• Production is no longer a problem. The problem is how to come up with the indepth information and content that attract the audience.
• Technology is reshaping media industry.• Winners will be determined over the next two to three years or
longer. • Specialised bloggers are fierce competitors to general reporters or
journalists.• Journalism and mass communication programmes must prepare
students with basic skills in digital media, writing & presentation, communication skill, analytical skill, mathematical skill. Broad knowledge in liberal arts studies are also needed.
