Innovation - the “key” to developing television in the digital age

Abstract: In the digital age, communication is undergoing profound changes in both the production and reception of information. Once regarded as the “king” of journalism in the 20th century, television is now facing numerous challenges from the Internet, social media, online video platforms, and the rise of AI, Big Data, and VR/AR. These factors create competitive pressure, to the extent that predictions have been made about the “death of television” in the face of platforms such as YouTube, Netflix, TikTok, or Facebook. To overcome these difficulties and to achieve stronger development, television must innovate and adapt in order to maintain its role in shaping public opinion and reaffirm its position as an important source of information and entertainment in the digital era.
