Stations dedicated to news will often feature newscasts, or bulletins, usually at the top of the hour, between 3 and 8 minutes in length.

An important promise of new media is the "democratization" of the creation, publishing, distribution and consumption of media content.
A journalist collects, writes, and distributes news and other information, and his or her work is referred to as journalism.

Blogs and podcasts are forms of media that exist within cyberspace and encourage interactions among people.
