Abstract

This study aimed to explore the extent to which Arab media outlets (newspapers, magazines, radio stations, television channels) have utilized the technological advantages and interactive services provided by the Internet, and the level of implementation of digital writing forms through analytical and evaluative methods. These methods serve as a necessary starting point for developing appropriate perceptions and solutions to address shortcomings in the electronic services offered by these outlets through their websites on the Internet. The study is descriptive in nature, aiming to achieve scientific results. It employed a survey method (using a sample) due to the difficulty of conducting a comprehensive survey of all Arab media websites on the Internet. The purpose was to establish a basic foundation of data and information required in the field of Arab electronic media and to assess the efficiency of the current conditions in this field by comparing the obtained information with pre-tested and prepared levels and standards. The study used a comparative method to compare different Arab media outlets (television, radio, press) in terms of their utilization of the vast capabilities offered by the Internet in providing their media services. The study employed the content analysis tool and developed a quantitative scale to measure the level of digital writing forms.
