News stories on TV and in newspapers are very often accompanied by pictures. Some people say that these pictures are more effective than words. What is your opinion about this?

It is argued that photographs in news stories on
television
and newspapers are more efficient than words. I
also
personally think that pictures attract the people more than words. I will discuss my opinion in
this
essay.
To begin
with, pictures represent the internal news or information at a glance. After seeing a photograph people eagerly read or watch the news.
For instance
, I saw a picture on national newspaper
such
as Prothom Alo about the Math Olympiad. When I saw that photograph,
then
I realize that
this
competition would be held recently. After that I read the article until the end.
Hence
, the pictures give a basic understanding to the reader on a
television
screen or newspapers.
Furthermore
, by adding pictures on
television
news give a prediction about the news.
For example
, according to a survey by media association in Bangladesh more than 70 percent people like to watch news including pictures. There are some channels which telecast news with pictures as like Somoy TV which telecast all kinds of news are connected photographs. When a channel represents the new of flood one part of a country they required to display the pictures of the flooding area. Without any photos people do not get to observe the real condition of the places. So, photographs with the news on a
television
screen encourage the audience to watch the news. To sum up, including pictures in the news can play a vital role by attracting readers’ attention to a particular topic. The Picture
also
displays a story vividly and make easier to understand.
