Some people say that we do not need a printed newspaper anymore. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

In the world of technological advances, computer-based reading habit is becoming increasingly popular, which prompts many people to think that printed newspaper is no longer necessary. I entirely agree with this viewpoint because online news now can offer readers with superior benefits that conventional ones cannot.

To begin with, online news could bring about more rewarding reading experiences, for when people access the Internet for news, they can simultaneously browse several websites for the same piece of information. Thanks to this convenience, readers can scrutinize the reliability of the news or they can get exposed to a wide range of articles in order to see one affair from different angles. In addition, Internet technology has allowed information to be disseminated more quickly than the traditional one. For this reason, people can catch up with the latest news inside and outside their countries.

Secondly, reading non-printed sources of news can be a more eco-friendly substitution. It is true that the amount of wood cut down for publishing printed materials is considerable. The rising awareness of environmental conservation has urged people to use electronic gadgets such as mobile phones or computers on reading so that people can live in a greener world with less waste being dumped into the environment.

Thirdly, it goes without saying that reading news on the Internet can be a more economical choice as many websites offer low-cost or free access to their articles. This enables people of different income and finance to read the news more.

In conclusion, thanks to the advantages of device-based reading, the publication of printed versions would be useless in the future.
