INTERNET usage is spreading in the country on a tremendous speed and this is changing the public sphere.Information is spreading faster and from the ways things are moving in the coming years majority of people will have access to internet.
Public sphere provides a platform where anyone can say anything without anyone controlling them which differs from other forms of media as certain rules and regulations guard them i.e Editorial policies in the newssrooms.Through the public sphere people are able to fully express themselves .
Moreover the public sphere is creating more and more debates on a daily basis as many people are posting many news aspects and it has no limitaions compared to newspapers and magazines in terms of time as anyone can write anything at anytime.
In addition,the internet is greatly enhancing the public sphere as it has no limitations or boundaries on topics to be discussed.As long as someone is prominent that person does not have a private life through the public sphere.
In Zimbabwe currently the Prime Minister;s marriage is on the public sphere as it is being discussed throughly by peolpe while different comments are being passed and no one can control that.
