THE NEWS MEDIA

News media are the means or methods by which people learn what is happening in the city, in the country, and in the world. The news media

can be classified into two general categories: the categories of print media and electronic media. Print media use the written material to

communicate news to readers. Electronic media use radio waves to send news into homes, offices and public places. Print media are usually

divided into magazines and newspapers. Most newspapers print news daily. For example, the newspaper “The New York Times” is published

weekly, the Newsweek and Times magazines are published once a week. The electronic media are generally divided into radio and television.

Radio news is the one that you listen to. In the United States, many radio stations broadcast five minutes of news every hour. Television news

is the one that you not only listen to but also watch it. In Canada and the United States, for example, many people watch an hour of news on

TV at six o’clock in the evening. In the future new categories of news media will develop. Even today computers are beginning to influence

the transmission and reception of news.
