Investigate the online news and journalism that exist today in South Africa.
South Africa has various publications. Every publication has its own of publishing to attract their readership. Those publications had introduced online news. The journalists just go out to cover the story the upload them on their website, then sent them to the readers without any delay. This is quick method of publishing and developing their publication.
There are some publications that I have already read their stories online, and now I know their style of publishing on line. Sometimes they code their headline online; it means they had already published that news on newspaper like sowetan. The name of the newspaper is sowetan and the name of their online publication is Sowetan Live. It means that news is live but you cannot see the source.
Sowetan Live
Sowetan Live represents the core values and content carried in the Sowetan newspaper, which can be describe as nation-building, community-focused etc. According to this Sowetan Live their values and content are more similar with Sowetan newspaper. The different is that Sowetan Live is quicker than Sowetan newspaper.
The Mail & Guardian
The Mail & Guardian Online is South Africa s older quality news source on the web and Africa s first online newspaper, offering breaking news and in depth. The thing that I have witness in this publication is that they cover weekly news that is not time out. Even their newspaper is the weekly newspaper. I have realised that this is the first online newspaper in South Africa. They are proud of that because nowadays this style of online is in fashion.
Kick-off.com

Kick-off are a 24/7 football news company providing arguably the largest source of South African related football news in the world. They publish different stories regarding local and international football. If the reporter has interview with player or agent, after few minutes the readers receive that fresh information from the source that are fair and partially truth. I’m saying this because sometimes they err.
The journalism in South Africa develops daily as the mouthpiece of the public. Is that’s why it brought changes in the field of media. Everybody can receive the information wherever they are at anytime. I can say journalism is abroad in South Africa. The readers could be aware of what can happen around their leader.
