This research explores the state of digital literacy among Baluchistan-based journalists from the perspectives of globalization, localization and a hybrid media system, given the rapid changes across all walks of life. In this context, new technologies and technological determinism have also reshaped journalistic practices across all fields of work. A quantitative research methodology was applied to this study, and survey research methods were used for data collection. Data were collected from 100 Quetta Press Club journalists through random sampling. An online Google Form questionnaire was distributed via WhatsApp. Findings revealed a significant positive relationship between journalists’ educational qualifications and digital literacy, with higher educational attainment associated with significantly greater digital literacy scores. It was also found that the concentration in this field indicates that people drawn to the disciplines of communications might be more digital, or that, in fact, these disciplines manage to develop digital competencies.
