Abstract

BBC journalist Mukul Devichand talks about the new trends of digital journalism and the way he applies them in his daily work in London. In this testimony, he exposes how two sections created by him were conceived: BBC Trending and BBC World Hacks. The first one includes in social media news, trends ranging from politics to tourism. And, on the other hand, the second fits in the journalism of solutions, because it deals with viable alternatives to the problems of the world and pursues positive and inspiring news.
