The negative aspects of internet newspaper

The first negative aspect is that some people will have the feeling that when they are reading the internet newspaper they will have to sit at their computer screen as long as the time they reading, also they will feel less patient than reading common newspaper which is in print. Because standing at the computer screen for a long time will let people feel uncomfortable, for example people will fell headache or get eyestrain.


The second disadvantage of internet newspaper is that the online version usually does not have the full paper. It means that people only can read an article in a website. Of course, internet newspaper will cover more news or stories than common newspaper, however, limited article in a website and different type setting will cause that people may miss some articles they really want to read and thus they have to search the content they are looking for. In addition, sometimes you will feel confused the type setting when you are reading online newspaper. For instant, when you are looking for some political news on a website, you have to click the regarding chain. And then you will find the website will be changed to one which only contains the article you want to read. If you want to continue reading political news, you have to back to the homepage and find other regarding articles again.


Last but no least, reading internet newspaper is hard for you to take some notes. To be more precise, if you find some helpful knowledge you want to learn from the newspaper, it is hard for you to highlight them. Whereas, print newspaper can allow you to study more knowledge because people can make a mark wherever they want, as well as, people can keep some articles they think which will be used later.

From here we see that whatever print newspaper or internet newspaper all have their own strong points, which encourage people to read them. So choosing to read print newspaper or internet newspaper depends on your own habits.

  1. I consider it regrettable if the written newspapers disappear. It’s so much liking in the morning by having a coffee and reading the news in the world. I can subscribe on the Internet but that will never have the quality of relaxation of the written newspaper. On the Internet the news are commented by so much people that at the end we can’t know what is the real information ! Moreover there are lots of faults of impression or knowledge. I hope that the writing will remain, not only for the great literature of the book but for the daily newspapers.
    In my opinion it is a question of habits. In my family we are subscribed with a daily newspaper since always and if the newspaper is not on the table the morning it will be strange ! That’s why I think that the web newspapers will never replace the authentic newspapers.
