Media in the Digital Age: Trends, Tools, and Cultural Impact is a comprehensive exploration of how media has transformed in response to digital technologies. The book offers an in-depth understanding of the digital media landscape by examining both its technical foundations and its broader cultural implications. It is structured into eight chapters, each focusing on a key dimension of digital media from its evolution and technological tools to ethical challenges and shifting patterns of consumption. Beginning with a historical overview of media transitions, the book discusses the characteristics of digital communication and the integration of media platforms. It further delves into digital journalism, the rise of citizen blogs, social media influence, political discourse, and online communities. Readers are introduced to concepts such as user-generated content, influencer marketing, analytics, and immersive storytelling. The book also presents critical insights into policy, regulation, censorship, and the role of governments in shaping the digital media space. Special attention is given to globalisation, diversity, language shifts, and ethical dilemmas, such as fake news, cyberbullying, and surveillance. Each chapter is supported with relevant examples and analytical perspectives to help readers contextualise and understand complex issues. This book is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students of media studies, communication, journalism, digital marketing, and cultural studies. It also serves as a resource for media practitioners and researchers looking to stay updated on digital trends and challenges in a globalised world.
