More and more people no longer read newspaper or watch TV programs to get news. They get news about the world through the internet. Is this a positive or negative development?
Getting the
news
on the internet
has become increasingly popular for people these days, while the newspaper and TV
enjoy less prevalence than before. I believe that this
is a positive trend.
Online media is more convenient for people to use than newspapers and TV
. We need to go to physical places to buy newspapers and sit in front of the TV
if we use newspapers and TV
, while online social media is very flexible. For example
, we can use the mobile phone to get news
from news
’ Apps or websites like Google anywhere at any time
, and mostly we do not need to pay extra money. Therefore
, online media saves people’s money and time
to get news
.
Moreover
, acquiring news
on the internet
is the most efficient way. For instance
, we can search the news
we want to know about through using keywords on Google, making us have a straightforward and positive experience. However
, the news
on newspaper and TV
programs are limited, and to some extent, it will waste time
because we have to go through the news
one by one, even we cannot get useful news
for us at the end. In addition
, news
on the internet
could be regarded as a collection, which contains abundant themes and different dates, exposing us to a variety of knowledge, and then
it can expand our horizons.
In conclusion, as a way of getting news
, the internet
has multiple advantages whatever it can save time
and money or contribute to our open mind.Submitted by mingxin.li on
