Journalism has had responsibility over many years to collect information and decide how to share it with the public. In times when it was difficult to communicate or learn of relevant news, many turned to journalists to understand the world around them. This is why so many have associated journalism with the task of gatekeeping information. According to the article “Gatekeeping and Journalism” by Pamela J. Shoemaker, American-German psychologist, Kurt Lewin, coined the term gatekeeping (10). Lewin explained gatekeeping as the news selection process of news that passes through various journalists and transformations by these journalists before entering the eyes of the public and becoming news (Shoemaker, 10). “Information is now understood to flow among journalists, among social media users, and among agents of both types of media. All such communication agents are gatekeepers'' (Shoemaker, 10). Now that the internet has become so expensive, allowing information to continuously flow through these New Medias instead of a linear process from journalists to the public, the way we once understood gatekeeping has now changed (Shoemaker, 10).
