I haven't read the newspaper for years. Our school has ordered a lot of newspapers, Someone sends us newspapers every day. But I can be sure that no one reads these newspapers. I heard that buying these newspapers is the task of the superior, and our school must buy them. This is a waste of money.

Me too. I find reading news online is more efficient and it also saves money instead of buying the newspaper.

In China,People can't publish the newspaper freely,it needs to be censored by communist government.So all of newspapers are all compliments and good things about the communist.There is no truth on the newspaper,they're all lies.
and newspaper is under the domination of government,they have no right to supervise or criticize the government,they also have no right to find and speak the truth.If they are dare to criticize the communist without censorship,their newspaper will be shut down by policemen and some of them maybe will go in the jail for fighting against the government and communist.
So i never read any newspaper from China.It's all lies except the its date and weather.

Even in our news channels this has expressed by reporters. All newspapers in china are controlled by government. Very sad to hear, there is no freedom of speech.

That's sad to hear. I think even some social media sites are being controlled by the government to show positive things.
What are your sources of news now aside from newspapers?

@prakashj256 It also applies here in my country. That's why I am resorting to online news and avoid local news on TV and newspaper.

I agree. Every time you refresh a news website, there is more news to read.

Reading news at the start of your day is a really nice habit to stay updated.

Do you have a mailman deliver it? Or do you buy them on newsstands?

@EfficientNinja yes maybe because most of us are using internets now. We can easily find information we want to know..

@Jessabuma I agree. Maybe local newspapers will get obsolete because of the internet. No one will buy them anymore.

Yes. I regularly read local newspapers. It gives me some detail information which I sometimes don't find in news channels.

@EfficientNinja I like to read words in print and prefer it over on screen reading. I love the smell of paper

@arunima25 Agreed! Same applies to physical books. Reading on a computer screen will make our eyes strain.

I agree. Even if it doesn't cost much, the cost builds up over time.

Absolutely. My girlfriend gets our local daily paper. It contains many items which will not be reported further afield or on social media.

Same with me. I don't think the local news here in my area is interesting or even worth the trouble of reading.
