My understanding to Citizen Journalism is where it is a group of people who progress in reporting, collecting. Moreover, they mainly focus on analyzing and disseminating news and information. In fact, they are not professional or even admitted as academic, but only normal general public population. According to Citizen Journalism does not have authorized permission or qualification to publish their articles and reading material to public. Therefore, they would like to post their product on particular blog, so that everyone can fell free to view.
The reason of the existence of Citizen Journalism, is where people can obtain much more opportunities to receive commends from different area field and class levels. Regarding to they does not belong to any company and organization, and therefore their writings would not be subjective and even expectable. For some reasons, part of news and information that public live with are not reported truly. They may be somehow covered by lies. In this case here, this kind or Journalism may want to give commend to public news. Also they explore from different ways and methods. Public learn more and sometimes news out of news.
For the last thing, from my perspective that it is sometimes better to read information from Citizen Journalism.
