Citizen Journalism in France: Professional Practice and Self-Regulation
In a few years, the media landscape has undergone rapid and unprecedented transformations, due to the significant advancement of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), which have greatly influenced the publication and the press. In this context, citizen journalism appeared in the wake of Web 2.0 that gives individuals the opportunity to produce and distribute their own content, as well as allowing them to interact with each other. However, the increasing dependence on citizen journalism at an unprecedented form also highlights the importance of studying this phenomenon in depth. This study aims to identify citizen journalism in France-especially about its implications for journalistic practices, as well as the self-regulation of this phenomenon. The study concludes that, this form of journalism is not professional journalism because they do not have the same objectives. Besides, citizen journalists are not "sources" of information but that they are new filters to the news. Thus, citizen journalism does not pose a threat to professional journalism. However, its collaboration with traditional journalism is a benefit, because it alone is not credible. The study found also that self-regulation would be the real benefit or a compromise to keep the relation between professional and non-professional journalism.
