Telecommunication is the process of news or information transmission from one place to another regardless of the distance between them. With advancing technology, new products have been invented which have further improved the power of transmission and made it clearer. Earlier, people used to send letters for communicating with families and waited for months to have a reply. But now, dynamics have completely changed because it just takes a few seconds to communicate with people living far away.
Moreover, news about all the happenings of the world is also received within a matter of minutes because of the power of telecommunication. For the better transmission of live news, every news channel has hired journalists in every country so that they are updated through local channels.
Journalists or press or media personnel are the individuals who work hard to provide information that is happening around the world. This information may include details of the business, education, religion, culture, or any other natural disaster that has occurred.

Outdoor and indoor work
Journalists are divided into the categories of outdoor and indoor because outdoor journalists roam around their designated area and report indoor journalists, found in newsrooms, to forward the necessary information to the public. Every journalist is required to wear their media pass or card to make it easier for others to recognize them.
These media or press passes are small-sized, printed cards that provide information about the journalist and are formal in nature. These passes are officially provided by their workplace. These passes help them bypass security during any emergency. Mostly in disaster-stricken places, security keeps the public out of reach and only allows journalists to pass so they could film and update everyone. Press pass comes in handy during this situation of fear and joy.
Different passes for different workplaces
Contents of press passes differ from one workplace to another because every workplace follows its own set of rules and policies, and so do its employees. These contents are very general and allow the other person to know about the profession of the pass holder.
Some basic information provided by a press pass is provided below,
- Name of media or press person
- Profile picture
- Job title
- Name of company/ news channel

All the information provided on a pass help the other person to know generally about the press person or the channel to which they belong.
