Nowadays more and more people read news on the Internet. Nevertheless, newspapers will remain an important source of news and information for the majority of people. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?

In recent years, digitization has become an integral part of our life, and it has impacted almost every aspect of our life including our reading habits. While an increasing number of people prefer to read online news, it has been argued that newspapers will remain the main source of news and

information

. I do not agree with

this

view. In my opinion, reading newspapers is a force of habit and in the future people will move to digital news. There are many benefits to reading news on the internet. The most important benefit of online news is that it is up-to-date and convenient to read. Traditional newspapers get updated only once a day, but their online versions are updated almost every hour.

Also

finding

information

online is easy because one can easily search any topic by entering the keywords and read instant updates.

Secondly

, reading digital news is easy and enjoyable because one does not have to turn pages like in a newspaper to find

information

.

In addition

to

this

, digitized news can be accessed for free or at a minimal cost, whereas physical newspapers are costlier than their digital versions.

For instance

, the monthly subscription fee of most newspapers is more than Rs. 200, which makes them at least 85-90% costlier than e-newspapers.

Last

but not least, people around the globe understood the impact newspapers have on the environment, whereas digital news does not require any paper or ink to publish.

Hence

, it is considered as eco-friendly. In conclusion, people are fond of reading traditional newspapers.

However

, considering the advantages of digital news, I firmly believe that people will leave their habit, and switch to digital news, which will become the primary source of

information

in the near future.
