Some newspapers like The Times founded in the early 18th century still run today with average daily circulation of a tremendous number. Experienced and well-trained journalists are hired in order to produce news with the best quality.

Also

, high quality report can be a valuable resource for bankers and researchers. Those people usually provide consultations for the government to decide public policy and foreign affairs. At present, people have more and more alternatives. Newspapers seem to be outdated in our daily life. We have internet. We have cell phones. In

this

era, everyone could be a journalist. Hurray! We don't have to waste a lot of time to wait for editing and printing newspapers. It is much more efficient. Many citizen journalists post their videos and their reports on social media.

, they are usually a lot of fake news which may mislead people.
