Undoubtedly, the Internet has become a major choice when looking for information or seeking pleasure for us modern people. It provides us with instant news stories, color pictures, and video clips. Based on this, many people maintain that the Internet outweighs the newspapers, and hence will replace the latter one. However, the extinction of the newspaper will not be seen in a relatively short time. The following are the reasons.
First of all, the convenience of the newspaper is its biggest advantage. We could fold a piece of newspaper and put it in our pocket when taking a bus. Some would argue that using other devices such as cell phone, laptop, etc, we could easily get access to the Internet, thus looking for news. But this requires electronic devices and the number of the people who have such tools is still not high.
In addition, the Internet does no good to our health. Exposure to radiation cannot be avoided when we access the internet, by whatever means we use. Newspaper, in contrast, has no radiation at all. For the sake of our health, the newspaper is a better option.
Newspaper has a long tradition in the mass media. Many press and agencies are built on this industry. Once newspaper becomes extinct, the structure of the industries will have to change. Even if newspaper becomes a thing of the past, it will not happen in a short period.
