Although more and more people read news
on the Internet, newspaper will remain the most important source of news.
Do you agree or disagree?
The
Internet is beginning to rival newspapers as the best place to find information
about what is happening in the world. I believe that this trend will continue,
and the Internet will soon be just as important as the traditional ones.
On
the one hand, I believe that newspapers will continue to be a vital source of
information, even in the Internet age. Firstly, newspapers are the most
traditional means of communicating the news, and not everyone wants to or is
able to use the Internet instead. For example, old people or those in rural
areas might not have the ability of opportunity to get online, while many of us
simply prefer newspapers even if we do have Internet access. Secondly,
newspapers can be trusted as reliable sources of news because they employ
professional journalists and editors. Finally, many people like the experience
of holding and reading a paper rather than looking at a computer screen.
However,
the Internet is likely to become just as popular as newspapers for a variety of
reasons. The main reason is that it allows us much faster access to news in
real time and wherever we are, on different gadgets and mobile devices. Another
key benefit of online news compared to newspapers is the ability to share
articles, discuss them with other people, give our views, and even contribute
with our own updates on social media. For example, there has been an explosion
in the use of platforms like Twitter and YouTube where anyone can share their
news and views. A final point is that this source of news is less damaging to
the environment.
In
conclusion, I disagree with the view that newspapers will continue to be the
main source of news, because I believe that the Internet will soon be equally
important.
