I am an old fashion girl. I get up in the morning make a pot of coffee and go to the newspapers stand to pick up my daily information supply. I use the internet as well but i like to feel the piece of paper in my hand and smell the fresh tonner. It gives me a sense of satisafaction like buying a new book. Ohh and another advantage is the newspaper is mobile ;) it goes anywhere you go!

I would rather read about the latest news online. Newspapers usually only report on events which happened a day or two before you get to read about them. Online news is updated all the time. I do visit newspaper websites as they do update the news and I can read reports online, so I do not need to buy a newspaper.

I used to read the paper every day, and if I was out of town I would call my parents to have them read it to me. But over the past 5 years I have phased out the paper completely! I don't even remember the last time I picked up the paper!
