Declining or Waning

Research centered on traditional journalism, such as print media and conventional news reporting, has become less prominent. This shift may be attributed to the rise of digital media and changing consumption habits, which have redefined the landscape of news dissemination. - Historical Analysis of Early Media Forms:
There is a noticeable decrease in studies focusing on the historical analysis of early media forms, such as radio and print journalism from the 20th century. This decline may indicate a growing interest in contemporary media practices over historical retrospectives. - Focus on Non-Digital Media:
As digital platforms become increasingly dominant, the journal has seen a reduction in articles discussing non-digital forms of media, such as community radio and traditional television. This trend reflects the broader digital transformation in communication.
