Abstract

The study, x-rayed the digital facilities available to NTA, KSTV and DITV News crew. The digital age along with changing technology, from the analogue system which had a slow pace and often times cumbersome process of gathering and disseminating news and has limited audience reach,

has to large extent open up communication opportunities for media organisations (Broadcast) to provide seamless media services to their audience and enhance the productivity of their work force (reporting in particular).

However, in as much as the digital age presents great prospects to the broadcast media, in Nigeria it has also thrown a number of challenges which border on technophobia amongst reporters, preparedness of broadcast organisations to meet the deadline for complete transition from analogue to digital, and ability to deploy the technology appropriately

.It also examined the extent to which television reporters utilize/employ digital facilities in news gathering and factors that facilitate seamless news gathering as well as the effect of digital equipment on news gathering and reporting.

Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Information rules today‘s world as information is power. Even before this contemporary age of information communication technology people relied so much on the media (Journalists) for information in their daily activities.

From the written tablets of Acta Diurna; the one paged Corantos, to the Diurnals put together by English men (Nathaniel Butter, Thomas Archer and Nicholas Bourne) as well as the 1665 Oxford Gazette to the inception of radio, and the 1920s television stations.

The television started to report events borrowing most of their information from newspaper (Baran 2002: 143), to what we have today, all providing news for those interested in it. Man‘s need for information was met.

In recent times, there seem to be an increasing number of people who turn to television as a source of news and programming, and this has changed the way people conduct their activities either from within or outside their immediate environment, especially with the decreasing number of people who devote their time to reading newspapers.

(Baran, 2004: 235)―News consists of gathering facts, deciding how to assemble it, as well as talking to people, translate difficult ideas, interpret to people and analyze stories in credible and objective manner‖. (Herbert, 2000: 5). In news gathering and reporting, a number of factors determine its effectiveness.

For instance, the language and skills of a reporter go a long way in ensuring effective news gathering and reporting. So also is the operating environment amongst many others Over the years technological advancements have revolutionized the media, so much so that today digitization has become central to broadcasting.

Today, broadcasting is seen as a critical instrument of modern social and political organizations.

For instance, television at its peak in the mid-20th century up to what it is today is being employed by various segments of society to address national issues due largely to its capacity to reach and influence wide and heterogeneous people without regards to their socio-cultural or economic background
