Changing the Landscape of News Propagation Through Online News

Changes are everywhere, especially in news reading. Traditional
newspapers are slowly becoming obsolete and impractical with today's
easy access to Internet and gadgets that allows easier online access.
Online news sites are fast becoming the next popular media of events
propagation to the masses around the world. The reason behind this
fact is obvious--feasibility.Most people today, even in less developed
regions of the world, have easy internet access. Anyone with a
computer connected to the Internet can immediately gain information by
a mere click of a button. There is no longer a need to buy newspapers
and magazines, listen to the radio, or watch television.While radio
and television news are narrowly focused on what they are programmed
to broadcast, online newssites offer so much more. A person hungry for
news can read unlimited varieties of events all over the world. These
ranges from local news, national happenings, breaking news, financial
reviews, world events, among others. And just like any conventional
newspapers, most online sites have classified ads for different
categories as well. Every Internet user has unlimited sources of news
by simply browsing the net. Old school types can find their favorite
newspapers providing them with online editions, with same news content
as �the printed ones. Examples of leading newspapers in the US that
provide online editions are The New York Times, The Washington Post,
etc.� Even the controversial Arab Al Jazeera network has provided a
number of English sites for online viewers wanting to know what is
happening around the world. Other radio and television networks also
have their own Internet news editions like the CNN, and the ABC
(Australian Broadcasting Network).And speaking of Australia, other
news organizations in the country are following suit. Channel Nine has
sought the help of MSN to spread their articles around the world. Many
other similar organizations like Telstra are providing their customers
an alternative means to view news in Australia online.While some
traditional media organizations are losing money due to online news,
some of these organizations are also finding ways to maintain profit.
The New York Times for instance are asking their readers to register
and pay an amount to read their articles. The Washington Post has ads
in their pages to shoulder the publishing cost of their news. This
trend is becoming the "in-thing" nowadays when it comes to news
marketing in the Internet.While traditional newspapers are still
around, their life span is definitely fast becoming shorter as the
years go by.� Web news is not only very feasible, but they are also
very practical in today's world. When your phone or laptop is your
gateway to your world, there is often no time to read print
newspapers, much more to pay for them.
