The advent of podcasting has revolutionized the way we consume and engage with information, storytelling, and journalism. This emerging medium has sparked a contentious debate among scholars, journalists, and media critics: can podcasting be considered a new journalistic genre? While some argue that podcasting is merely an extension of traditional radio broadcasting, others contend that it has evolved into a distinct form of journalistic expression. This article will explore the notion that podcasting has become a new journalistic genre, examining its unique characteristics, the role of podcasters as journalists, and the impact of this medium on traditional journalism.
