It is important to use the subject-to-object research paradigm to identify the main subjects - communication customers - to determine the parameters of the communicative figuration in the mediatization studies more accurately. The practical and conceptual mediatization and public relations framework is being transformed due the newest deep mediatization paradigm which provokes a conceptual mediation and public relations convergence.
