Seen as a cost for a station, the news organizations have seen dramatic drops in staff. News has seen a shift. Traditional mediums have seen a drop in revenues, and news seekers are finding their information in different sources, often in user-generated manners. The unifying theme is that people seek news, and will seek out sources that carry up-to-date, original news content. Online, your station needs to provide this.Interactive media brings new opportunities to radio stations to provide deeper, more stimulating news coverage. With the new web channel medium, news departments have an opportunity to use the tools of the web to provide additional depth from reporting on-air. News departments can use the web for video and audio in addition to text. Further, news departments can use listeners' cell phone and commentary as a form of "Citizen Journalism".
