Criticising every media company she mentioned except the Mail and Guardian Gill Moodie says it is most likely that those journalism graduates who are mad about new media will find themselves not utilising there gained skills if they were to find themselves working for newspapers newsroom.
Having looked at Avusa’s Sunday Times-Times Live website, I found it to be of reasonable standard and at pretty much the same level as the praised Mail and Guardian. Sunday Times has more stories to offer and different varieties such as the review section and business all in there page, which one might find interesting depending on ones taste of news, while the Mail and Guardian has fewer stories compared to the other.
Media24’s News24 website has always intrigued me the way it is designs makes for one to want to click on the news it is not too formal like the Sunday Times and Mail and Guardian. The way the pictures and adverts are all designed fits in well and the colours are well matched. It is designed with the reader in mind.
Independent Newspapers Sunday Tribune is a so bland it makes one not interested in further exploring the website for news. The way in which the pictures and stories are presented is just boring, the colour is not strong enough to attract much viewers. Having looked at the Independents Sunday Tribune, I also looked at the Daily News which is also an Independent Newspapers publication and the Daily Newspaper was much better than it sister publication however I do agree with Moodie when she says Independent Newspapers is still behind on many fronts when it comes to venturing online.
