The article examines the evolution of international journalism and the prospects for its development in the context of globalization. It has been established that the main factors determining the changes are: the development of digital technologies, the expansion of globalization processes and the growing role of social networks. The analysis shows that the industry faces a number of problems and challenges, including political restrictions and the safety of journalists. The paper identifies issues related to freedom of speech, the spread of fake news, and violations of professional ethics, and describes measures aimed at finding solutions to these problems. Prospects for the development of international journalism are proposed, with an emphasis on international cooperation, standardization of ethical standards, and the use of artificial intelligence technologies.
