Some people think that the best way to learn is from a newspaper. Others think that the best way to learn is through media. Discuss each views and your opinion.

Newspapers and news channels are the primary tools for obtaining information about what happen around us and in the world. While a number of people believe that a

newspaper

is the best tool for learning, others claim that media is better than the former for learning purposes. As well as offering my personal

opinion

,

this

essay will discuss of these views, and shows why newspapers are ultimately the most effective way to learn about both local and global news compared to

TV

news. On the one hand, media channels have played an important role over a century,

although

sometimes they can be used a type of propaganda, especially which serve the authoritarian regimes. Even though

TV

channels are informative, many

TV

channels are being used to serve the aims of a certain party today.

For instance

, in underdeveloped and developing countries

such

as Iran, Turkey, Iraq and Syria, visual mass media undemocratically as well as unethically propagandizes to reinforce ruling party.

Therefore

, learning through the media is not always the best method.

On the other hand

, despite the unethical function of visual media, there are reliable newspapers to learn things in associated with the agenda of the country or world. Unlike visual media, one of the fundamental roles of a

newspaper

is both to provide people with objectively a truth and

also

analyse it.

For example

, most newspapers have an editorial column which analyses important events.

Furthermore

,

this

column usually gives the

opinion

of the news editor or

newspaper

management. Presenting a fair analysis of a major event is vital because newspapers play a crucial role in shaping public

opinion

.

Thus

, newspapers are the most effective way to learn various happenings in comparison with other media. In conclusion,

TV

news is not as good as many people claim, which is the most powerful weapon of undemocratic regimes. In my

opinion

, a

newspaper

, which has an editorial column, and provide reliable news is the best way of learning events around us and in the world.
