citizen journalism
definition: The proliferation of communication technologies and new media has transformed contemporary journalism by harnessing the power of audiences and citizens to participate in news reporting and dissemination, leading to the rise of citizen journalism. Citizen journalism reverses the traditional relationship between audience as consumer and reporters as producers of news. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Media and Politics; Citizen Journalism]
