What impact does journalism have today?

"The impact on journalism today is that many people depend on having news every day. If there was no journalism, no newspaper, no news at all we won't know what the weather is. Who and what we need to look out for. What I’m trying to say is that we wont know what we know now. That is what I think about the impact on journalism today."
