It is a well-known belief that nowadays, the news is lacking in connection with people's social life and it takes us overmuch hour to read a daily and view a news program on
television
. While I think it is true at
first
 glance, I disagree with the view that all means of news will waste our time for reading or watching it. In one word, indeed,
newspaper
Suggestion
a newspaper
newspapers
 today has not strongly correlated with most people's life. The main argument is that the
newspaper
 has spent much time on producing like to investigate, typing, checking and printing. The process requires a long period to bring a complete piece of
newspaper
 to readers.
Therefore
, not catching up with the latest news is considered as a common issue, but it can make the essential quality of

 pieces of paper as well as ink, which might lead to a negative impact on our environment.
On the other hand
, I would hotly debate that paying time for a
television
 news program is a negative way resulting in the time-wasting issue.
Firstly
, thanks for the updated news on the Internet or
television
, we feel easy catching up with what is going on in our world
also
 in our country.
For example
, by watching VTV channel, a national news channel in Vietnam, we know that around the world, there were more than 3,600 people cannot suffer from Coronavirus.
Secondly
, because the Internet is easy to be instantly accessed, we can look for much newest information in an excess of reliable sources.
Although
 there is lots of fake news on the Internet, we can still believe in it. In conclusion, while I support the view that reading the online
newspaper
 and watching
television
 news program are not time-wasting activities, I disagree that all means of news
are

or
 lack of connection with our real file.
