In citizen journalism, the news or the story comes from citizens that are usually posted on social media. These are the viral posts or events that people need to know about such as calamities, incidents, and/or accidents. Community journalism is where the story or news comes from a community that can be seen in some documentaries. Citizen journalism is from the people themselves who report the news through social media, while community journalism is a type of journalism where journalists soak in a community to make stories. For example, Kapuso Mo Jessica Soho (KMJS) uses citizen and community journalism in featuring their stories.

For example, citizen journalism can be disseminated by an individual who happens to experience the news firsthand using his/her digital means, though this can be the same thing with community journalism in some aspects, only that the second one requires a deeper connection or understanding inside the community. To better understand local concerns, one factor done by community journalism is face-to-face interactions.  Citizen journalism can go beyond the borders without worrying about a certain limitation or scope.

A citizen journalist isn’t limited to their own community, their scope is much broader, they can cover and spread out in different areas. A community journalist however, though limited to their community, has an extensive background knowledge of said community which can only be possible through spending a lengthy amount of time to absorb and fully understand the culture, and traditions. Citizen and community journalists both have their own strengths and weaknesses, but the thing about journalism is the spirit of collaboration.

Differentiate Citizen and Community journalism. Many people often confuse the meaning of these two journalism areas as just Individual and collective journalism, and that is wrong. Community journalism is a field in journalism where professional journalists stay in a community to study and reveal news-worthy stories inside a community. It can also suggest solutions to the underlying problems in a community. Community journalists are catalysts and amplifiers that initiate action and changes. While on the other hand, Citizen journalism is a terminology for Citizens who act as journalists. Meaning they don’t have to be professionals to do this, they only need a gadget and social media to publish their own report or composition.

On the other hand, community journalism is done by professional journalists who make themselves part of that community to tell a story in its most authentic and humane way.

Citizen journalism is a practice done by citizens of a certain community. It is participative in nature since traditional media consists of journalists as the practitioners of the field compared to this practice which grants the role of reportage to the public.
