Where do we get the news?
Information about what has happened in the world, in our country, in our area, or even in our town comes to us in many ways. People who can read often get their news from the media. Because many people in the world are illiterate, however, they get the news from television or radio.
Newspapers around the world are similar in many ways. They all have news stories that tell people about the events of the day or week. Often, papers have other purposes that are devoted to business, sports and maybe the latest fashion news. Papers usually appear weekly or everyday, but in some places they may only appear monthly. Magazines are another way that some people get the news. They are longer and usually appear slower. Television and radio are two other ways of the news. They get the news out faster than the newspapers and magazines, and they don’t have to be read. Radio and television stations broadcast the news several times each day.
