In the prevalent era, online
information
 is easily accessible to people, so some of them believe that other news sources
such
 as newspapers and magazines will disappear in succeeding times. While the significance of traditional media is declining, I do not believe that they will completely disappear in the forthcoming years. To initiate , it is true that readers have been reaping numerous benefits from the
internet
 in terms of the ease of obtaining
information
.
To begin
 with, netizens can get the latest
information
 instantly, since web-based news is updated on an hourly basis, while newspapers bring out a new edition only once a day.
Besides
, netizens can find the
information
 they need from the
internet
 after inputting keywords because searching for
information
 in a newspaper or magazine is very time-consuming.
Nevertheless
, there are several remote areas where people do not
use
 technology or gadgets like smartphones and neither do they have access or know how to
use
 the
internet
,
thus
 newspapers continue to be a relevant and primary source of getting news at
such
 places.
Also
, the real essence of reading news lies in reading printed newspapers or magazines as well as in flipping its pages.
However
, these traditional
information
 resources have their inherent advantages.
Firstly
, these media defeat the network, in terms of the reliability of their
information
. It is widely acknowledged that the
information
 in newspapers or magazines are censored strictly before being released, whereas, the credibility and authenticity of the
internet
-based
information
 cannot be completely relied on, since anonymous netizens bear no liability for disseminating deceptive
information
.
In addition
, the vast majority of the elderly have difficulty using the
internet
 and computers or mobile phones, and they will continue to
use
 printed newspapers or magazines. Another advantage of conventional media is that it is quite easy on the eye whereas obtaining reading news on smartphone or laptop screens can be quite straining. In conclusion, while people can conveniently find
information
 online in
this
 technology-driven era, traditional media will continue to exist because of its inherent advantages like reliability, availability and ease of
use
