In order to fully understand what is happening in the world, we must read new paper; television news does not give enough information. |
Today, many people tend to rely more on television news than on news paper to figure out what is happening in the world. This might be attributed to convenience visually and aurally. However, I believe that reading news paper is essential key to fully understand the events happening in the world because it reports in detail and is physically permanent.
To begin with, news on television usually broadcast a wide range of information in a given time. In other words, it makes a crucial matter to be oversimplified, while new paper provides sufficient information and in-depth knowledge to the readers. It is believed that television news is somewhat limited by its broadcasting time thus it could not fully cover the fact what viewers desired to know about. For example, tidal wave happened in Phiphi Island in Thailand 5 years ago, was catastrophic disaster related to the global climate change. Many people got to know this by television news first, was not satisfied with the range of conveying contents, since the television news only provide 3 different simple facts- it's causes, the extent of damage, and current conditions for 5 minutes, It seems to cover main stream of the big happening yet, some people had to search news paper to realize more detailed processes and even some measures to recover it.
In addition, people can find out details through the news paper at their own pace. It is true that the rate of speaking from an announcer on television are too fast for some people to follow and understand it at once. To avoid this concern, people should find a news paper to read it with their own speed. For instance, The World Cup for national soccer team competition is the one of the big event world widely. When it held in Germany in 2006, I was eager to know the final score of all teams. Although the television sports news offered beautiful images and dynamic movements of the players, the image showing the score just passed shortly that makes me to not recognize it. I eventually look over the news paper that describes all information I wanted to know so that I could check it with my reading speed.
In brief, I firmly believe that new paper is crucial to completely understand the happening events in the world, in that it reports a specific story and a pemanent material for the readers. Despite advance in technologies including television media, news paper cannot be underestimated in the modern society.
