How the Digital Revolution is Impacting Media’s Evolution

The first 20 years of the century witnessed the explosion of digital media to the point of its ubiquity today.

We discuss this with Prof. Suzanne Franks, Head of the Journalism Department at City, University of London.

Prof. Franks was in Kuala Lumpur to deliver a lecture, “Making News and Shaping Views: Riding the Rollercoaster of the Digital Revolution,” as part of the Jeffrey Cheah Distinguished Speakers Series.
