CHAPTER ONE
Unlike in the past, the people of the world
are today living in a global village as a result of various
breakthroughs in information technology.
Information that used to take many days or weeks to disseminate now takes seconds or minutes.
It is now possible for people including professional
communicators, public officers and others to get desired information as
quickly as possible from other parts of the country or from other
countries with the coming of the G.S.M without leaving their immediate
environment. We now live in an information age, which means that it is
possible and easy to get in touch with relatives and friends all over
the world.
In the recent discourses of “The Information Age”, the mobility
of individuals and of populations, capital, industry and information
is considered critical to the formation of information elites and
information societies (Cairncross; Castells). From these discourses a
dominant view has emerged in which the digital mobility of information
was considered as an essential and informing element of globalisation.
It was also widely regarded as a development which would revolutionise
news and information production and delivery. This view stemmed from an
understanding that media information ‘flows’ as central nodes in
social and economic networks are dependent on technology that provides
fast, economical transport of information, which can be easily
reproduced for mass distribution. Certainly, the news industry has a
history of being an early-adopter of forms of technology that provide
improvements in the capacity to produce, deliver and sell news and
information, one of which in recent times is the GSM. The reporting of
news remains an essential element of information transmission,
including and especially the reporting of all forms of traumatic events
– from major disasters, to isolated incidents. To understand how new
mobile technologies (GSM) can both assist and damage journalists
reporting on traumatic events, it is necessary to recognise the word
“GSM” (i.e. Global System for Mobile Communication), which will be
discussed in full in subsequent chapters.
The use of all forms of communication technology has been and
remains a critical factor in the transmission of such news, which
workers in the media ‘industry’, especially journalists, are required
to use routinely. Journalism Historian, Hanno Hardt argues that “for
over a hundred years newsrooms, like factory floors, have been a
laboratory for technological innovations and a battleground of economic
and social interests (173). Earlier still, Schudson proposed that this
“technological argument” was a causative factor in an earlier
“revolution” from the 1830s in industrialised nations, which produced
the model of modern journalism, now challenged by new communications
technology. Among these newer developments is the increasing mobility
of information, which lighter, cheaper, more flexible technology such
as mobile phones, digital cameras and laptop computers allow, together
with access to the Internet are most influential.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
This study is aimed at examining the
contributions of G.S.M phones on the news coverage in our society, its
nature, its dimensions, functions and uses of the society at large.
It further aims to examine how the G.S.M phone has helped
individuals, business organizations and the international communities
to communicate quickly and easily.
