Abstract
The Internet has become a new mass media that integrated with traditional media, such as print, radio, and television. Together they bring up what is called media convergence. With the media converged, media institution needs to innovate in order to survive the technological era and to meet the audience’s demand for up-to-date and real-time information. One of the big changes that can be seen in the media is how the journalists work. To produce news content, journalists require more skills and knowledge. The person who makes such news productions is called a video journalist. Many media institutions are now relying more on video journalists to produce multiple content on different media formats.
However, there are many critics that video journalism practice has reduced the quality of news since the journalist could not focus on a certain news issue and format. This is qualitative descriptive research that aims to examine how video journalists work to produce multi-format and multi issues news content and whether video journalism practice has reduced the quality of the news. To collect the data, an in-depth interview with two video journalists in two leading Indonesian news media has been performed. The result indicates that video journalism practice has reduced the quality of news.

Abstract
İnternet, basılı medya, radyo ve televizyon gibi geleneksel medyayla bütünleşen yeni bir kitle medyası haline gelmektedir. Onlar birlikte medya yakınsaması denen olguyu ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Medyanın birleşmesiyle medya kurumları teknolojik çağda ayakta kalabilmek ve tüketicinin güncel ve gerçek zamanlı bilgi ihtiyacını karşılayabilmek için yenilik yapması gerekmektedir. Medyada görebileceğimiz en büyük değişikliklerden biri de gazetecilerin çalışma şeklidir. Günümüzde gazeteciler haber içeriği oluşturmak için daha fazla beceri ve bilgiye ihtiyacı duymaktadırlar. Bu tür haber prodüksiyonları yapan kişiye video muhabiri denilmektedir. Pek çok medya kurumu artık farklı medya formatlarında çok sayıda içerik üretmek için video muhabirlerine daha fazla önem vermektedir.
Ancak video habercilik uygulaması belirli bir haber konusu ve formatına odaklanamadığı için haber kalitesini düşürdüğüne dair pek çok eleştirmen bulunmaktadır. Bu nitel tanımlayıcı çalışma video gazetecilerinin çoklu formatta ve çeşitli konularda haber içeriği üretirken nasıl çalıştığı ve video haberciliğinin haberlerin kalitesini düşürüp düşürmediğini incelemeyi amaç edinmektedir. Yöntem olarak derinlemesine görüşme tekniği benimsenmiştir. Bu kapsamında Endonezya’nın önde gelen iki haber medyasında görev yapan iki video muhabiriyle görüşme gerçekleştirilmiştir. Toplanan verilerin analizi ve değerlendirmeler video haberciliği uygulamasının haber kalitesini düşürdüğü sonucuna götürmüştür.
