Why study technology journalism?

Technology is advancing by leaps and bounds. Every day new innovations emerge, and understanding their impact on society becomes a priority. Javier Matuk, a leading professional with more than thirty years of experience, shares his perspective on this exciting field. His career, which spans from print to television, offers valuable insights for those who wish to explore the world of technology journalism.

What has Javier Matuk's career in technology journalism been like?

Javier Matuk began his career in journalism by accident. Although his background was in industrial engineering, his innate curiosity led him to explore the field of technology and share his findings with the world:

  • Print media: Matuk wrote for more than a decade for a nationally circulated newspaper in Mexico, where he published the weekly column "Desde el teclado" (From the keyboard). This experience allowed him to research and write about technology in a context where traditional journalism predominated.

  • Print magazines: He edited several magazines focused on technology in a Mexican publishing group, leading the way in this type of publications before the digital era.

  • Television and radio: He was a pioneer in creating programs dedicated to technology in media such as broadcast television and radio, at a time when there was hardly any offer in streaming or online series.

  • Digital ventures: He founded Unocero.com, a successful technology portal that he later sold. Currently, he continues to work on related projects, always with his mind set on his next venture.

What are the challenges of journalism in the digital era?

The nature of technology journalism has evolved significantly. Today, the figure of the influencer is often intertwined with that of the journalist. Matuk addresses several key questions:

  • Do you need to be a journalist to write about technology: not necessarily. Passion and knowledge of the subject can lead an individual to excel in the field of technology journalism, even if he or she has no formal training in journalism.

  • What is the influence of influencers: Matuk suggests that the line between influencer and journalist has blurred. Influencers can appear to be journalists because of their broad reach and their ability to communicate complex messages in an accessible way.

  • Financial sustainability: One of the most relevant challenges is financial sustainability. Matuk suggests reflecting on revenue opportunities within the industry, a frequently debated topic among professionals in the field.

How to improve in technology journalism?

For those who wish to enter or improve in this exciting field, Matuk offers several recommendations and motivates to continue learning and sharing experiences:

  • Soak in different voices: Participate in discussions and debates about technology. Learn from other experts and share your own experiences.

  • Stay current: Technology changes daily, so staying informed is crucial to producing relevant content.

  • Be critical and curious: Question trends and analyze the impacts that new technologies have on society.

  • Develop diversified skills: In addition to writing, integrating multimedia skills such as video and sound production can enrich your work and make it more attractive to the audience.

Finally, Matuk reminds us of the importance of passion and dedication in any career. Enthusiasm for exploring, learning and sharing knowledge can be the key to making a difference in technology journalism.

Tengo un canal de Telegram desde hace un año sobre tecnología y aunque no me considero periodista, esa labor de comunicar la asumo de forma responsable. Buscando referencias me encontré a Javier y ahora me alegra estar viendo un curso de su persona.

¿Vivir del periodismo tecnologico? Creo que tiene dos posibles respuestas:

  • Periodismo tecnologico empresarial
  • Periodismo tecnologico mediatico
    En en primer caso lo veo viable ya que se sería la cara visible de una empresa y se daría a conocer data puntual de una empresa, generando noticias que a la empresa la favorezcan.
    En el segundo caso lo veo cada vez menos viable. Los medios estan cada vez más pobres de audiencia y por ende de pauta.
    Una posible tercera vía es “Periodismo tecnologico digital” que une los dos mundos y podría ser el más imparcial aunque depende también de quien este siendo el sponsor de estos canales digitales.

Javier te conozco desde ese programa que salía en TV, en canal 40, me parece que salía a las 6 o 6:30, era para mi de gran interés verte.
