An opinion article entitled: The Omani public's request for information about the explosion of wireless pager communication devices in Lebanon through digital media platforms

Abstract

As the use of digital technologies in the content industry grows, content production has started to adopt new patterns in conveying current events, as it represents one of the key pillars of the success of news organizations.

In particular, the explosion incident involving the wireless pager communication devices of Hezbollah members occurred because Israel planted explosive charges inside them. The party used these devices to enhance the security of its communications due to concerns about eavesdropping on its calls.

    Digital media platforms are known for providing information and news to the public regarding the incident of the explosion of wireless pager communication devices through text, audio, and images.

In addition to helping attract the public's interest and deepen their understanding of the issues that concern them, this leads to the creation of a digital media environment based on interaction, dialogue, and participation between platform operators and the information-seeking audience.

    This leads to a higher level of interaction with the content presented, as the audience's behavior in seeking information is shaped by the activities the user undertakes while searching for the necessary information and the information sources that meet their needs.
