Sample 1:

Some people believe that despite the spreading popularity of the online media, traditional newspaper will still hold the most vital position among news readers. In my opinion, this idea is rather absurd as the Internet has become increasingly dominant due to the benefits it offers.

The first thing that attracts people to reading news on the online sources is their easy access. With the presence of the Internet around almost every corner of the world, people with a portable device such as a mobile phone can access huge storage of news. In fact, latest events, for example IS Terrorist attacks, would be updated immediately on CNN or New York Times. By contrast, with prolonging procedures including editting and printing, traditional newspaper might not be able to compete with the Internet in terms of the updating speed.

Another benefit with which the Internet can, from my point of view, take over the position of printed newspaper is the new experience it brings to readers. One limitation of newspaper is that it cannot convey visual messages to the people who read news on a regular basis. Meanwhile, non-stop progress of the technology industry has unfolded the possibility to upload videos and voice records on various online websites. For instance, soccer fans these days can rewatch their favorite matches anytime they want with only a laptop connected to the Internet, which a mere paper cannot do.

In conclusion, I disagree that printed newspaper would continue to be the most crucial source of information because more and more people will be drawn to use the Internet.

Sample 2:

Despite the overall increase in digital news, many people believe that society will still get most of its information from newspapers. I personally contend that newspapers are struggling to find traction in the modern world due to their cost and inflexibility, and as time goes on, they will flounder and be replaced.

Firstly, newspaper subscriptions of all kinds are decreasing since they are more expensive than the free online news. There is little benefit to getting newspapers delivered to the front door today, as with a touch of a smartphone, information from all over the world can be readily available at one’s fingertips. Thus, digital news is both more affordable and more convenient to the masses, and companies who refuse to make the transition to online platforms suffer dramatically from lower financial returns. This is, for instance, why we see many traditional news sources going bankrupt and being replaced by online social media platforms such as Twitter or Facebook.

Secondly, digital news allows for more varied content to be offered than print media. More specifically, the former can incorporate video recordings, digital audio and high-quality images, something that is simply not possible on newspapers. To read the news in newspapers is to miss out on the range of what can be communicated by news apps nowadays, which are able to provide a much more illustrative depiction of the real world. This is why traditional newspapers such as the Guardian or the Washington Post have moved many of their operations online: to make their content more diverse and thus to attract more readers.

Overall, I argue that the benefits of digital news, both in cost and variety, compared to newspapers are significant. Thus, I argue that in the future, internet news will become the primary source of information for most people in society.

Sample 3:

Many traditionalists believe that while people have access to the Internet, conventional newspapers will continue as the major source of news. I totally disagree with this view.

The speed and convenience of the Internet in this digital age have led to the increasing popularity of online news. Firstly, the Internet is able to provide up-to-the-minute news as it happens, 24 hours a day every day. As long as I have my smart phone or laptop with me, I can connect almost instantly to the Internet, surf the websites and access the news of my choice across the globe. Secondly, more and more people now have access to the Internet and this trend appears set to continue. The more widespread the accessibility of the Internet, the more people will come to rely on it as their new’s source.

In contrast, newspapers have drawbacks which affect their popularity. One major disincentive of relying on newspapers as a news source is the cost. Competing with freely available news online, newspaper publishers are facing the reality of falling circulation figures. Some major American newspapers have now’ introduced online versions alongside their printed editions in an attempt to arrest this trend. Another disadvantage of newspapers is the amount of paper consumed in their production. With growing environmental awareness, there is a body of public opinion which rejects buying newspapers because this involves cutting trees and transporting them to paper mills. While this may not be a major factor at present, the environmental argument will almost certainly gain ground in the future.

In conclusion, I would argue that newspapers will continue to decline in importance, and more and more people will use the Internet to access the news.

Sample 4:

It is common at the present time to see people getting updates on the latest news from the internet rather than the traditional method of reading a newspaper. I would argue that electronic sources of news will gradually replace that of the newspaper. 

Newspapers remain an important source of news for several reasons.  The first of these is that the older generation still prefer to read their news this way, which is because they have traditionally bought a newspaper over the years and so do not wish to change or simply do not know how to do so online in some cases. In addition to this a newspaper also comes with other supplements, such as magazines and television guides, and sources of entertainment, such as crosswords. This makes it more attractive for some than going online.  

However, though newspapers may not disappear completely, the Internet is likely to become the more dominant source of news over time. This is primarily because younger people tend to read the news online and prefer not to pay for it, so those reading newspapers, the older generations, will gradually decline. This links in with the second reason, which is that as media companies start to see a drop income from newspapers, printing them will become unprofitable and they will be forced to find ways to make money from news online. 

In conclusion, although newspapers remain popular today, they will gradually be replaced by the desire to read the news through electronic sources. This may be a sad loss given their history, but unfortunately it is an unavoidable development. 

Sample 5:

It is argued that although many people read news on the internet, newspapers prevail over digital news and will continue to outweigh its importance for the majority of people. This essay will discuss how it disagrees with the given statement. I believe online news is more accessible and convenient in comparison to newspapers, and online news is more versatile and more inclusive.

As my first point, I believe that the accessibility and convenience of digital news cannot be replicated with a newspaper. Online news allows people to consume news in an immediate manner, where any news story can be accessed by the tips of our fingers, is an incomparable advantage. This is even more relevant when we consider how fast-paced life can be, and how digital news can serve this purpose so efficiently. In our speedy times, the more sedentary nature of newspapers seems less fitting. Newspapers evoke a sense of study, leisure and sitting somewhere comfortable enough to enjoy your paper. This however contrasts the ease in which people can otherwise access news online. Moreover, not only is online news readily available, it is equally as easy to circulate and share amongst friends, leading to more of a cultural awareness amongst people. Take for example the situations in which you want to be updated with the news but don’t have the leisure of time. This could be on the way to work, queueing to board a flight, or simply travelling between destinations, where such situations create pools of time that are ideal for a quicker digestion of news.

Secondly, online news is more versatile and more inclusive. Online news offers a more versatile range of content as you can read news from hundreds of sources. The immediate benefits of this lies in reading numerous writing styles from a multitude of news sources. When reading a paper, you are reading their house style and thus reading a particular style of writing. Whereas, online news stretches across multiple styles of writing and encompasses a global perspective with more linguistic variation. As well as this, news can be digested in the form of video. Some people may find that they would rather watch a short video and be updated in this manner. A newspaper simply cannot perform this action. Consuming news online can create a chain of engagement where one article can lead to another, to a review, to an interview, to trending stories and so on. The individual reading news online means that their library of knowledge can easily be topped up and they can gain a more informed perspective by reading news from different sources. Due to the myriad ways of online news, this also makes it more inclusive to print news where it can be read in all languages, including its video element that may be more suited to people. If for example an article needs to be used in a lesson at school, it is more engaging and inclusive for the teacher to provide their students with its digital format. If a portion of the students have English as a second language, then the teacher can easily supply them with the article in its many languages. Furthermore, students are likely to be more receptive to supplementary video material alongside text.

To summarise, I believe that reading the news on the internet has more advantages in terms of its accessibility, levels of engagement and inclusive nature, than reading a newspaper and is therefore a more significant source of news for the masses.

Sample 6:

Some believe that despite the rise in consumption of online news, newspapers will always be the primary news source for most. In my opinion, though newspapers may remain more trustworthy, online news will surely only become more popular in the future.

Those who argue for the primacy of newspapers point out their reputations. Before publication, newspaper articles are researched thoroughly, often for several months, by accomplished and professional writers who then pass their articles on to editors who verify the information and approve inclusion in the next edition. Most individuals are dimly aware of this process and therefore more likely to carefully read and trust reputable papers like The New York Times and Washington Post. This stands in marked contrast to online news, which is written hastily and published instantly, often with the intended purpose of generating clicks and advertising revenue rather than accurately informing their audience.

Nonetheless, the majority of people already receive most news from sources other than newspapers. This includes television and podcasts, but websites and social media now dominate the media landscape. Most individuals find articles through websites like Facebook and Twitter that allow for the direct posting of links, which can then redirect users to a primary news source. Other more popular social media, including YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, are more likely to aggregate and summarize or respond to recent news stories. Their potential audience is far wider than the dwindling circulations of physical newspapers.

In conclusion, despite the reliability of newspapers, there is little that can curb the growing ubiquity of online news. Individuals must therefore be more discerning as to which influencers they trust.

Sample 7:

In the modern world, obtaining news on the Internet has become an accelerating trend. I have faith in the likelihood of this trend overshadowing the traditional way of reading newspapers to become the most crucial source of news.

The most obvious proof supporting my viewpoint is the decline in the popularity of traditional newspapers. Conventional newspapers’ nature is characterized by a thorough and time-consuming process of editing, printing, and distributing. This turns out to be a weakness that causes newspapers to fail to meet the instant quest for news of modern newsreaders. In addition, due to the fact that printed newspapers are geographically limited, their reach and exposure levels are becoming substantially lower than those of online news. Apparently, it is online press, not the traditional one, which helps news seekers all over the globe access local news as well as global news published by a variety of internationally prestigious newspapers including BBC, New York Times, and Wall Street Journal. Such availability of online news far outweighs that of printed news, steadily dominating the news industry.

Moreover, the advantages of online news significantly surpass those of printed newspaper. In this era of advanced technology and communication, the omnipresence of the Internet and the availability of Internet devices have boosted the popularity of online news to the extent that the concept of buying and reading a printed newspaper would become obsolete and inconvenient. Online platforms which facilitate fast-moving and immediate news updates will certainly become the utmost solution to satisfy increasing demand and busy news seekers. Thanks to Internet-based platforms, news about an incident happening half the world away could be retrieved within a few seconds after its commencement, which renders news updates one day later on conventional newspapers out of date.

In conclusion, despite the fact that printed newspapers still hold an important role, I firmly support the tendency that they will be eclipsed by online news.

Sample 8:

It is true that a growing number of people are using the Internet in order to find out the latest news. While newspapers are still popular, I strongly disagree that most people will continue to rely on them as a source of news.

The first reason for my view relates to the increasing use of the Internet around the world. Recently, a growing number of people have accessed online news via technological gadgets such as smart phones or tablets, so they do not need to buy a newspaper to obtain news. Even in more remote corners of the world, access to the Internet is becoming more widespread and the online community is growing daily.

Secondly, online news is always up-to-date while printed news needs time for editing, printing and delivering. In this fast-changing world, readers tend to expect updated information about what has just happened or is happening around them. Online news can be broadcast immediately with vivid pictures and relevant stories, making it more appealing to readers than printed news.

Finally, the Internet is a repository of information for people to dig for information that they need. Digital information can be stored in mass quantity, which allows internet users to search for events that occurred in the past. In contrast, newspapers are generally hard to preserve because of the corrosive effects of the environment and their sheer bulk makes storage difficult. This once again confirms the edge of online news.

In conclusion, I firmly believe that the Internet is even now replacing newspaper as the principal medium or accessing all the latest news.

Sample 9:

The advent of the Internet and other forms of media in the twenty first century has unquestionably brought about a metamorphosis in the way people seek knowledge and information. Newspapers, the one form of media which was once considered highly important, has now entered a state of significant and rapid decline in many places across the world. This has led to suggestions that newspaper will soon become a thing of the past. My way of thinking is that the death of newspapers is almost certain.

Firstly, many people are against reading newspapers because the process of making it is not environmentally sustainable. Even though newspapers today are losing their readerships, a staggering number of trees are being cut down every day to produce them. On the other hand, using digital tools to disseminate knowledge does not necessitate cutting down trees, disrupting animal lives and certainly proves to be more environmentally friendly.

Secondly, readers of newspapers are likely to receive out of date or incorrect information. The fact is that the process of making a newspaper is a long and complicated one, involving many stages such as writing, editing, printing and distribution. This means that by the time newspapers hit the shelves, there might be some changes to the events covered and it will already be too late to make any adjustments.

Nevertheless, some are skeptical about the view that newspapers will die out and their argument is that newspapers are a more reliable source of information than other types of media such as the Internet. However, the truth is that many journalists today display poor professionalism and low morality. Many do not think twice about writing incorrect information in order to increase the readership. This shows that the information in the newspapers is not any more trustworthy than on the Internet.

These points have strongly corroborated my view that the decline of newspapers is not overstated and there will be no place for newspapers in the near future.

Sample 10:

In light of advancements in technology and the proliferation of the Internet, there is an increasing number of people learning about the news on online platforms. Although I am of the opinion that newspaper will maintain its position as a major news provider for people, I believe that people will read most of their news from online newspapers rather than printed ones.

News captured online can be unreliable. This is because many news providers are competing with each other to grab people's attention to sell ads. The more viewers they have, the higher the price of the advertisements they can sell. Clickbait headlines are a prime example where the content of an article can sometimes be incompatible with the title of the article as long as it can induce people to click. Moreover, there is a great deal of fake news online because with an Internet connection, everybody can create online content that is accessible by millions of people. The information can be biased and subjective as there is no evaluation of the reliability and validity of the information posted.

On the other hand, newspapers are often considered a much more reliable and trustworthy source of information. This is because most major journals and newspapers are under the control of the government and the news is often written by professional journalists. Furthermore, access to the most significant and official information, especially those from the government, are often reported by reliable journalists and newspapers rather than by individuals or tabloids. However, it is undeniable that with the development of the Internet, online newspapers are gaining in popularity due to its convenience and speed. As a result, more and more people will subscribe to reputable newspapers such as BBC or The Telegraph to get their valuable and reliable news.

In conclusion, I believe that online newspapers are the future of news capturing for the majority because of its superior reliability and validity over other sources of news on the Internet.

Sample 11:

Most people still view traditional newspapers as being more important than traditional internet news sources. I vehemently disagree with this assertion since, in contrast to online news, newspapers are less readily available to individuals.

The fact that the internet is more accessible in a number of ways is the first and foremost reason why the majority of people will prefer it. Especially over the outdated practice of reading newspapers. This means that traditional news publishing processes are laborious and take longer than using the internet to convey news to readers. For instance, a local periodical may cover a story the day before it is published. The story is then printed, subject to editorial adjustments, and after receiving final approval, it is made available to the public. Thus, making the information one day old. Online articles can be read whenever it is convenient for the reader without having to wait for the local newspaper to print the next day's edition. As a result, a newspaper is superseded by the influential ways that the internet offers to learn about current events.

Furthermore, because of technological advancements, internet sources offer many advantages over printed ones, far outpacing newspapers in many ways. This is due to a few factors. First, the massive amount of paper used in the printing of news articles. It often encourages readers to turn to online sources in an effort to reduce waste and promote the environmentally friendly trend. Second, using internet applications, readers can receive critical information that, in some cases, demands quick broadcast. For instance, "TOI" has created a user-friendly web portal. It has features that allow the public to access it in a variety of languages. And it offers constant updates in a matter of seconds, covering all types of news globally. So, by increasing the use of internet channels that disseminate news to the public, newsreader preferences are making printed newspapers obsolete.

As a result, newspapers have historically played a significant role in bringing the news to the public's doorstep. But I am convinced that, given its favourable results, online news will continue to dominate newspaper popularity.

Sample 12:

There's no denying that more and more people are using the Internet to stay up to date on news. But some individuals still hold that traditional newspapers are still the preferred source for the majority of people. Despite the advantages that newspapers provide, I contend that internet news will quickly overtake print news in the 21st century.

On the one hand, I have to admit that even in the Internet age, printed newspapers continue to be a great means for many people to stay current. First off, readers feel at ease reading newspapers because of their physical quality. Many people enjoy the tactile experience of holding genuine paper in their hands. And many of them even have the practice of making notes or underlining passages while reading the newspaper. This activity unmistakably improves people's processes for digesting information and their enjoyment of reading. The reliability of print reading is another benefit. Newspaper editors and journalists constantly work to avoid publishing inaccurate information. Because it is very difficult to amend any news after it has been released to the public. This makes newspapers a more trustworthy source of information.

Despite the advantages of traditional newspapers that have been discussed, I still believe that online media will be more popular than print media. The fact that web news provides immediate access to reporting of events around the globe is its most important advantage. In other words, instead of waiting for the morning newspaper, consumers may get the most recent news on their phones or laptops. The low cost of this innovative medium for widespread news consumption contributes to its popularity. Readers can save a lot of money on newspaper subscriptions. As they don't have to pay anything to keep up with the most recent news or read an engaging article in an online magazine.

In conclusion, I think that internet news will finally capture the hearts of readers in the near future. Even though traditional newspapers may still be a great source of information.

Sample 13:

Young people are increasingly using the internet to read the news because it is the quickest method to keep up with the latest information. However, there are still just a few individuals who read newspapers printed on paper. Especially older people who aren't as familiar with modern technology. And this is related to the fact that they can't easily "use the internet, locate correct statements, and distinguish between information sources."

First and foremost, it is clear that we are in the midst of the digital era. Due to this, people use more electrical devices - such as computers, mobile phones, and so on - in their daily lives than they did in the past. These days, individuals choose to use their cell phones to get information and statements since they can always take them anywhere and at any time. Aside from when they are sleeping. And the demand for and client base for these gadgets are both growing quickly. For instance, I seldom ever purchase newspapers. As I constantly read news on the official websites or pages on the internet using my computer and mobile devices.

Second, trees are used to create the paper used to print newspapers. Since most people toss newspapers after reading them, it is bad for the environment. And we should use less paper in order to preserve nature. Although it is possible to recycle wastepaper, it is evident that many presses degrade over time and produce dirty paper. It makes recycling impossible for certain materials. For instance, there aren't many paper recycling firms, and there aren't many used newspaper recycling initiatives in Mongolia.

In light of these issues, newspapers, which until recently were the primary source of news in our culture, have begun to give the internet more prominence. As we know, firms have been paying close attention to their corporate social media platforms for the past ten years. So, I believe that most readers have shifted to a way of acquiring their news through official websites.

Sample 14:

Traditional newspaper was always the first and most crucial news source, but the arrival of the Internet era has brought a new competitor, online news. Personally, I believe that despite the importance of press, Internet news will soon be just as important.

On the one hand, it is believed by a great number of people that newspaper will continue to dominate, even in the age of technology advances. Firstly, not all of the world population are capable of accessing online news. In fact, people in various less developed countries do not own any electrical or technological devices, let alone the Internet. Secondly, as the majority of press publishing houses tend to hire professional journalists and editors, their articles tend to have more credibility and accuracy as well as reflect the truth. Finally, part of the population, especially the elderly, simply just do not adopt changes but rather stick to old goodies. They have been reading traditional newspaper for decades, and there should be no obligation for them to turn to Internet news now.

On the other hand, it seems logical that the preference of many people now is to read online news over traditional press. One of the key benefits that the Internet acquires is the ability for us to share the article, comment under it, and even contribute our own works to the news sites. On top of these undeniable advantages, online news producers can provide the audiences with real-time updated information, which newspaper can never achieve. If a brutal gunfire occurs, the latest information about the casualties will be posted online as soon as possible with contribution made not only by reporters but also those who witness the crime scene. Another factor that leads to the increasing figures for Internet news supporters is environment. By finding information about what is happening in the world online instead of purchasing a newspaper, we can save tons of paper and carbon footprint which is the major catalyst for environmental pollution.

In conclusion, I believe that although newspaper is currently a major news source, the Internet will soon be equally important in the foreseeable future.

Sample 15:

It is certainly true that the internet has reached into every facet of human lives and reading habits are no exception, with the majority of modern-day people opting for digital news. Many traditionalists believe that despite the upsurge in the popularity of the online medium, newspapers will continue to remain a vital source of news in the future. I vehemently disaccord with this notion and will explicate my stance in forthcoming paragraphs with credible examples.

To commence with, there is an irrefutable number of arguments in favour of my stance. Firstly, and the most conspicuous one is the convenience of reading. To elucidate this, the internet offers flexibility to access any news, of past or present events, at the click of a button. Unlike newspapers, digital news is always accessible on your smartphones, tabs, or computers. Another pivotal aspect is that online newspapers can be accessed for free or at a minimal cost, whereas physical copy is costlier than digital version owing to the publication cost. To instantiate, the monthly subscription of most newspapers is more than Rs 200, which makes them at least 80-90% costlier than e-newspapers.

Another paramount ground of my belief is that digitized news is up-to-date ...
