THE CKNVoice of the Voiceless
Citizen journalism: “When the people formally known as the audience employ the press tools in their possession to inform one another.”
Jay Rosen (2010)
FACTS- 10 million Australians do not own a smart phone- 47% of Australians are functionally illiterate
How, as journalists, can we best reach these underprivileged publics and make sure that their voices
