It is often said that pictures speak louder than words. I suppose

this

maxim goes well with the way news stories are presented by newspapers and television channels. Some people say that it is better to use more pictures. I agree with

this

viewpoint. A pictorial and graphical depiction of news stories can be very appealing and convincing. It can

also

cheer up the mood of the readers.

For example

, a candid

image

of a rejoicing sports team after winning a world cup trophy.

For example

, a candid

image

of a rejoicing sports team after winning a world cup trophy will warm many hearts. Sometimes, it may just take a single picture to narrate a sordid tale or describe the enormity of the situation.

For instance

, a front page

image

of a crying child in a flood affected surrounding speaks volumes. To cite another example, the picture of the grieving family of a martyred solider can have quite an impact on the reader / the nation.

Furthermore

, news with photos arouses the reader’s interest to a large extent. In my favourite newspaper ‘Bombay Times’, pictures of various celebrities compel me to read the articles about them. Depending on our interest area, a related

image

can draw our attention to read the entire article. In summary, I believe pictures in the newspapers and TV channels can create a lasting impression on our mind with their positive, powerful or heart-rending message. They

also

make the news stories more interesting and easy to comprehend.
