Interactivity as a multi-dimensional concept
It directs the focus to the intersection of the psychological and the sociological.
It bridges between mass and interpersonal communication.
It may be achieved in mediated and direct communication.

Types of interactivity
Declarative (one-way) communication (e.g. most traditional media: radio, TV, newspapers).
In reactive (two-way) communication one side responds to the other.
![Page 5: 1 The Internet as a Mass Medium. 2 Mass Media means books, newspapers, journals, bulletins or other publications, television and radio programmes, film](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e525503460f94b47bb8/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Fully interactive communication requires that the messages in any sequence take into account not just messages that preceded them, but also the manner in which previous messages were reactive.
In this manner interactivity forms a social reality.

Interactivity is a process-related, variable characteristic of communication settings.
The outcome of interactivity is engagement.
Interactivity can lead to sociability. It can help in explaining how groups stick together.
Interactivity is not a characteristic of the medium. It is a process-related construct about communication.

Impact on journalism
Authentic journalism
New requirements: cognitive potential, multi-skilling

Freedom of access and freedom of expression on the Web are affecting professional journalism in the sense that the boundary between journalism and non-journalism are increasingly being blurred.
Also, boundaries between the editorial and advertising are becoming less clear (“church – state” separation)
![Page 29: 1 The Internet as a Mass Medium. 2 Mass Media means books, newspapers, journals, bulletins or other publications, television and radio programmes, film](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e525503460f94b47bb8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Some have even said that professional journalism is about to die, because in cyberspace anyone can practice journalism and become their own reporter, publisher, information provider and news disseminator.

This democratic nature of the Internet is at the heart of the process, but where will it take us?
How will be know that the information which we are receiving is truly newsworthy?
