This paper analyzes the media role and communication function of monitoring public events. It is inevitable that the media today have a significant influence on the audience, but also that the public influences the media. The influence of media on the public is manifested in the style of life and the formation of public attitudes related to public events. On the other hand, audience influences the media by in some way imposing adaptation and changes that arise from different public needs. In the new media world, the old media tries to adjust and supplement their offer by joining new media. Globalization has caused changes in media communication because more and more media are changing, and communication is also changing. The influence of new media on media communication is increasingly common in many scientific and applied research areas. The new historical period of media communication is increasingly determined by the new information-communication processes and the strong development of modern information technology. So, today's modern era determines the new era of media communication where the most significant role is the development of technology. Mass communication is an important feature of contemporary media communication and is geared toward different and wide audience. It is very important that the public, which is a fundamental part of communication in the public sphere, will present the media with such content and how public communication will take place.
