Abstract

Introduction. Transformations of journalism in the post-communist countries including Ukraine led to the transformation of the general picture of journalism as a sector of social activity. Journalistic practice and the person of a journalist are a large part of the market for journalistic work in its diversity; however, the fact remains that this market has some limits.

Methodology. The basis of scientific research is the analysis of theoretical research. The methodological basis of the article is a combination of general scientific methods and special techniques and approaches to the study of patterns and features of information processes and phenomena. The processing of the source base was based on the use of analytical, synthetic and logical methods, which helped to formulate a system of initial theoretical concepts, principles of selection, analysis and generalization of research material. theoretical concepts, principles of selection, analysis, and generalization of research material.
