First

newspaper
 supply us with more reliable news.
That is
 to say, the news on the
newspaper
 must be reviewed and checked before printed and issued, which leads to the correction and the cut of the inaccurate and false
information
.
Hence
, the news published on
newspaper
 is of high accuracy.
Nonetheless
,
this

also
 exists in

any of various alternatives; some other
another
 kind of media since the force of supervision towards the news on any platform has been strengthened these years and the laws has

 stipulated the punishment for false news.
As a result

 possesses reliability. In conclusion, in spite of the view that
newspaper
 is more reliable from those opposed, I deem
internet
 and TV to be
better media
