Abstract: People widely regard broadcast news as the most influential medium in the world for shaping public opinion. In Bangladesh, the field of broadcast journalism experienced significant growth with the emergence of private television networks about twenty years ago. Television news broadcasts hourly press bulletins, generating a strong news demand among the general public. However, the current has had a significant impact on all aspects, particularly the media. The dissemination of news through broadcast media is crucial in the current period because of the prevailing demand for news. Effectively conveying the appropriate message to the appropriate audience is a formidable task. The dearth of information renders this task unattainable, as the epidemic is novel to this generation. Amidst the global impact on broadcast journalism, Bangladesh has also experienced negative consequences. Commercial television networks are unable to reach all categories of viewers. There are serious issues with conducting a thorough audience analysis before preparing the message. Nevertheless, the progress of broadcast journalism in Bangladesh has encountered obstacles. From the beginning, broadcast journalism faced numerous difficulties and barriers to establishing its position in the media sector. Television news is subject to significant influence from the political funding industry and concerns over freedom of speech. Furthermore, it presents the most formidable obstacle or hurdle in the distribution of news, as television news lacks sufficient space for comprehensive coverage. There is insufficient opportunity for a comprehensive and analytically rigorous report. Furthermore, social media has now assumed a prominent position in the media sector, although television media remains indispensable. Evidently, experts predict that television news will not disappear in the near future.
