media-related / medial
'medial' and 'journalistisch' can both have to do with media such as newspapers, television, or the internet. 'medial' is broader: it describes that something happens through the media or is visible in the media. 'journalistisch' is narrower and refers to the work of journalists, for example research, reports, or interviews. Learners may confuse the words because journalism is part of the media world. When it is generally about the effect or presentation in the media, 'medial' fits. When it is about journalistic work or a journalistic style, 'journalistisch' is more precise.
