Gazi News System (GNS)
Abstract
In journalism, there are series of processes that news; photographs and images have to undergo before they are presented to the viewer. After the correspondent writes the news article, the editor reviews the piece and decides whether to publish it or not. Since the 1980s, with the help of the news writing systems that were developed in Turkey, the process of news writing and publishing have been expedited and improved considerably. Computers and new software systems have replaced the old-fashioned tools of journalism and news broadcasting such as typewriters, negative/positive photography films and darkrooms for film developing, telephotography, cutting and pasting tables, white-outs, the yellow papers used for news writing and so on. The news management systems and the digital technology of today’s world have greatly contributed to many different aspects of how journalism and news management are conducted. Software firms are now developing systems that are compatible with the demands of news agencies, televisions, newspapers, magazines and digital media companies. In the field of educational Journalism, there has been a need for a software system tool that can help and direct students for the purposes of writing, editing, archiving, news searching and managing in an effective and efficient manner. For that matter, Gazi University Faculty of Communication and Journalism has established the ‘Gazi News System’ (GNS) with the support of the university’s Faculty of Scientific Research and Projects that helped develop the software, which has taken around 1,5 years to complete. At present, the editors and writers of ‘Gazi News’ are using the GNS Software for their news management capabilities. The software is also eligible to be used during journalism application courses offered at Gazi University. Furthermore, GNS is practical and proficient for distance-learning education programs. This report presents detailed information about the GNS software and its utilities.
