Authors : Saidani Selami . Feguiri Leila .
Abstract
The successive developments in the field of communication and technologies have led to the emergence of many communicative applications akin to blogs, social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc. These latter have provided a "historic opening," transferring media to unprecedented horizons and giving their users greater opportunities for influence and crossing borders with limited censorship. The emergence of social media platforms has created channels for live broadcasting from their audience, altering the essence of known communication theories and breaking the monopoly of the media industry to convey messages to a wider and more inclusive extent, with an impact and interactivity that communication experts had not envisaged. Therefore, the relationship between social media and the media raises several problematic issues that cannot be reduced to the newly introduced technical dimensions in the field of broadcasting and reception. It makes them a specific factor in cultural transformations and excludes new patterns of communication, as the media does not operate in a vacuum but draws from economic, political, and cultural contexts, whether local, national, regional, or international.
