A conference at Media General.
Media convergence occurs when news sources coordinate and share their content using electronic technology. Some people find this to be beneficial by streamlining news production and viewing, while others consider this harmful because it causes many sources to show the same stories, and in many cases the same viewpoint, reducing the
diversity
of viewpoints that are easily accessible. This effect is especially compounded by
media concentration
, because large conglomerates would often choose to show the same viewpoint on each of their
subsidiaries
.
One example of media convergence can be seen in the use of the Associated Press, which many other news sources borrow from. Note the similarities between the Associated Press story;
