Due to the inevitable digitisation of media, the traditional print media and its newsrooms have been undergoing though substantial amount of changes. The competition has made the work tougher, recruitment and employment patterns are undergoing a shift, diversity is slowly seeping into the newsrooms, the environment for a gender inclusive workspace is gradually improving and also, most journalists are still underpaid for the work that they do. The mediums for the dissemination of news have evolved and so have the newsrooms, bringing both positive and negative factors into play. This research paper aims to shed light on the above highlighted topics with an addition of few other issues of importance related to the topic of study and it was done with the help of perspectives and opinions of working and retired journalists of mainstream newsrooms in Bangalore. A qualitative approach was taken forth which included several expert interviews and an observational study, both, for an access to a proper insight on the topic of study.
