 “There are studies that we made in this field; we have done many studies in 6 years both in news and advertisement fields. One of the most important factors in the internet journalism is the quality of your news. When making news, you should not offend someone, use names and make assumptions for the morality of the news. Especially in the police news, using names can cause troubles. However in the internet journalism, there are some newspapers that make these kinds of news. If you want to create a news site like Cyprus Time, you do not need to work firstly in the news agencies. As long as you have personal record you can work independent. But there is one condition in creating these sites, you need to be a company. In other words, you need to have a certificate for doing this job”
