Newspaper_Importance

Newspaper Importance In a time when information is available to anyone at the push of a button, a turn of the dial, and now, the click of a mouse, newspapers have had to adapt in order to continue to please and inform their audiences. Due to the continuing change of views and preferences of our society, newspapers have taken on different roles in order to satisfy these changes. The New York Times, The Star Tribune, The Twin Cities’ City Pages, and the Asian Pages are examples of different types of newspapers with different styles of providing information. Each of these papers covers certain events and issues in certain ways, thus making each paper appeal to a specific audience. The New York Times began its power when Adolph Ochs, the owner of the Chattanooga Times in 1878, invested $75,000 in the struggling Times. Ochs built his paper around covering substantial news, paying less attention to entertainment news and sensationalistic writing. With this approach, along with lowering the price of the Times to a penny, the Times grew to be fourth largest daily newspaper in the United States with over 1,000,000 daily copies in circulation in 1998.
