The thesis is based on the content analysis of new websites in terms of tabloid. Later it shows, that this phenomenon is a very delicate issue, especially in terms of the definition and identification of the key indicators of tabloiding or popularization. In the thesis I especially want to develop discussion about (not) comprehension tabloid tendencies. How do news sites appeal to readers? How does their approach differ? How do they evolve? And which direction to take in the future ? I tried to find the answer to these questions. I could not neglect print media, which arose due to their electronic form. To get more familiar with this issue, I interviewed editors of news sites, which revealed, inter ali, their relationship and approach to tabloids. Keywords: News websites, bulvarization, popularization, internet

This work should show the importance of being able to utilize all the meanings of media that our world presents, keeping in touch with people subscribed to certain product, knowing its target audience and being able to give it as much as we possibly can. Are Czech online media capable of this path or are they just forgetting and missing the options? The term new media is still shifting and evolving as we witness new technology revelations. While the world is changing unbelievably fast we need to focus on those transformations and adapt to them, not fight them. But since there are always some who keep resisting innovations, we can see how their work differs from those who follow new manners. With help of Socialbakers and their Analytics PRO tool we will examine certain Czech news websites and see how they cope with social media, Facebook specifically. Their most popular posts will demonstrate the overall orientation of particular page and other metrics will reveal what can be or should be improved.
