The development of media technologies has for many years been one of the more frequently discussed phenomena affecting changes in the media and journalism. Nowadays, both media theorists and practitioners point out that media technologies not only change the form of publication or the journalist’s work style but can also affect the quality of journalistic publications. The purpose of this article is to attempt to identify contemporary approaches of the media community to the role of new media in relation to the quality of news, journalism and contemporary media challenges on the basis of qualitative research conducted among representatives of the Polish media community.
