Media professional performance in the digital media environment Field study on a sample of Algerian journalists

Abstract

This study aims to identify the linguistic  and technical level, and the capabilities of professional control in electronic editing and publishing techniques in the various stages of media production by Algerian journalists working in digital media institutions, and its impact on the return of their professional performance.

  This study belongs to the type of descriptive studies, where the survey method was relied on, and the questionnaire tool was used on a random sample of 60 journalists divided equally between the public and private media sectors.

  The study reached a number of results, the most important of which is that talking about the electronic journalist in Algeria in the sense of performance and professionalism is still early, as the performance of Algerian journalists working in the digital media environment is characterized by the lack of professionalism linguistically and technically, and the absence of interest in vocational training and specialized media scientific training, in addition The absence of independent legal legislation regulating the online media profession, which negatively affected the profitability of performance and digital media practice in Algeria.
