Up to now, the press agencies of the provinces and cities subject to mergers across the country have been reorganized in a streamlined manner. Many places have merged newspapers and radio stations, such as: Ninh Thuan Newspaper merged with Ninh Thuan Radio and Television Station, taking the new name Ninh Thuan Newspaper and Radio and Television Station (newspaper, radio); similarly, Vinh Long Province Newspaper and Radio and Television Station have also merged. However, this is only the first step in merging newspapers and radio stations in the province, and the merger will continue when the provinces and cities complete the implementation of the Project on merging provincial-level administrative units according to the conclusions of the Central Government.
Yesterday, the National Assembly passed a resolution to rearrange provincial administrative units, leaving the country with 34 provinces and cities.
Accordingly, all provincial agencies and organizations in general will be merged into the agencies and organizations of the new province, such as the two provinces of Binh Thuan and Dak Nong merged into Lam Dong. In which, Binh Thuan newspaper and radio and Dak Nong newspaper and radio will be merged into Lam Dong newspaper and radio. This shows that after the merger, there will be a large number of journalists working at the new Lam Dong Newspaper. With a large workforce, while the number of newspapers and daily broadcast time is limited, it can be imagined that the editorial office will not lack news and articles, and competition for news and articles is inevitable. News and articles that are "rehashed" over and over again from reports will no longer have a "chance" to appear in the newspaper. Previously, local newspapers were considered dry by many people, mainly serving party members, cadres, civil servants...
In fact, local press has rich content. In addition to conveying the Party and State's policies and guidelines to the people, it is also an important forum and information channel reflecting the people's thoughts and aspirations. Local press also actively participates in the field of fighting negativity, reflecting "hot" and pressing issues occurring in the locality, which are of public interest. Reporters always go to the grassroots, thoroughly understand the root of the problem to reflect in each work...
However, in the current era of information technology explosion, besides reporters who are always searching for and discovering new things, having new ways of expressing their works, both promptly and accurately conveying the policies of the Party and State but still attractive, there are still "civil servant" reporters. They are afraid to go to the grassroots, just sitting in their offices or at home, pressing the phone to call the locality, asking the office department to send documents via email. Not going to the field, they cannot feel the breath of life, the way of expression is not lively and their works are not much different from... reports of the grassroots. It is known that each journalistic work must always rely on data provided by the grassroots, but for the same issue, if the reporter goes directly to the grassroots, learns the reality, approaches the people, the article will be better, more lively. It is the articles that lack the breath of life, are heavy on writing style, and have data in the reports that have caused local journalism to be known as dry. That makes readers skip the work after reading the first few lines, gradually the reporter himself loses his brand, trust and love from readers.
Life is a flow, always moving in both forward and reverse directions. This is a large repository of events and documents for each journalist to freely search for information and freely express their work in many different ways. Reporters who always stick to the base will have good works, attract readers, contributing to making the newspaper more lively.
If reporters do not change their way of doing journalism during the merger, they will have no place in the news agency. Not to mention eliminating themselves from the journalism industry when the times have changed.
