Print verses online news

Today, citizens can find news articles online as well as the traditional way, print newspapers. Both forms of media have advantages and disadvantages. The easiest to access is probably a newspaper. In the paper, stories are limited and more relevant to the area in which they are published. Every area from town to country can publish a newspaper. Online news tends to be more broad based. Stories relevant to a particular town or district can be harder to find, while more international stories are published. Bizarre stories can also be found online, a lot more than you will find in your local newspaper. The Internet has one final advantage. If you pay for Internet access, you can access the news stories for free. These are the advantages and disadvantages to two of the most popular forms of news.
