Some people believe that newspapers are the best way to learn about current events. However, others think that they can learn news better through other media. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
Many are of the view that news is best received through traditional
newspapers
while others feel that more modern publishing is preferable. In my opinion, despite the better habits engendered by reading the newspaper
, it is impossible to argue convincingly against the convenience of the newer mediums.
On the one hand, reading the newspaper
allows for a healthy, distraction-free environment. This
relates to both the content and the presentation of magazine
. Add an article
the magazine
Newspapers
undergo rigorous editing and articles are necessarily published more slowly, allowing for better writing and fewer sensationalist headlines. An individual reading the newspaper
can be compared to someone eating healthy foods or doing exercise. Similarly
, newspapers
are not vulnerable to the wide array of potential distractions on digital devices. There is less chance a newspaper
reader will be distracted by social media
or their personal communications.
On the other hand
, there are a wide variety of functions only provided by more recent forms of media
. Newspapers
are primarily based on text, with images adding slight variety. In contrast
, online media
enables an individual to watch videos, listen to audio, cross-reference sources, consult primary sources, and generally take full advantage of the digital world. For example
, a person who reads an article about a politician’s remarks can then
check for the video in order to hear their words in context and later visit a site such
as Twitter to analyze reactions from the general public, journalists, experts, and politician
. Fix the agreement mistake
politicians
This
information can then
be easily shared through online messaging services or social media
.
In conclusion, there are definite advantages to non-digital news sources, however
, these are overshadowed by the versatility of modern media
. It is the duty of individuals to ensure they enjoy the positives without the drawbacks of spending too much time online.Submitted by makemoneyizzy16 on
