Nowadays we can log in to a wide range of
media
in order to seek the latest news. While some people believe that
print
media
,
such
as newspapers, magazines, and books to name a few, should cease to exist because we consume from the internet now, others argue that
this
isn't a great strategy for the long run. In
this
essay, I will discuss both sides of the argument, while I support the latter opinion. On the
first
hand, some folks, who
second
the idea of the dusk of
print
media
, might say
this
because of easy access to the wireless network. The reason for
this
is that many people can easily tune in to news,
for example
, the movement of stock prices, the weather forecast, and the breaking news, while surfing on the net without having to pay a lot for its services, unlike the monthly television subscription.
On the contrary
, if a large number of people begin to consume entertainment and seek information through the net, we would become a much greener planet.
On the other hand
, I would argue that
print
media
is essential and critical for delivering data to large masses. It is because of the fact that many townships and rural areas in my country, India, do not have electricity and
hence
they have no option but to consume it. To illustrate
this
point, a large portion of the rural population consumes newspapers, which are published in regional languages, to access data about the world.
In contrast
, if we were to stop printing newspapers and books altogether, the literacy rate in suburban and rural areas would decline rapidly. In conclusion,
although
computer devices and electronic gadgets can help folks to download information at a relatively cheaper price,
print
media
, in my personal opinion, has a wider reach than the internet.
