The Online Newspaper

December 7, 2012 By Teresa Martinez

An online newspaper is differentiated from the physical newspaper because it is simply found in the web.  Although there are newspapers that are still found in newsstands and the Internet, a good number of them simply choose to concentrate on online readers. It has certainly found its niche.

Recent studies show that online newspaper readers now outnumber those that read physical  newspapers.  This is probably due to convenience especially for those who have to sit behind a computer anyway.  The latest stories and news are readily seen on the computer upon opening even without any effort .  This then calls the attention of readers to the news and leads to online newspapers if more facts are desired.

Online newspapers carry news from all over like actual newspapers.  They have the great advantage of literally being at the very fingertips of the readers.  They are free, easy to access, and current.

There is no question as to the currency of online news since  many update theirs by the hour or at least several times during the day.  Compared to traditional newspapers which will bring the next update the following day since they still have to be printed, online newspapers fill in the void for the reading public’s sustained interest in a topic.  Here lies the great attraction of online news.

It isn’t quite clear yet if online newspapers will have the power to annihilate traditional newspapers.  Many still hold on to the traditional way saying that holding a physical newspaper is part of the reading experience.  As of today, the two newspapers happily co-exist.
