Newspapers were still trying to survive amongst the television providing all the news, but there was the introduction of the internet that has flooded the need of the newspaper and the newspaper industry. As internet began to become more and more accessible to people all around the world, the need of newspaper started fading and it became difficult for the newspaper industry to cope with the internet.

However, majority of the newspaper and magazines publishers have understood the need and preference of online news and thus they have shifted their focus towards news websites to provide their readers with updates and happenings all around the world. There is definitely a difference between availability of news online and reading it through newspaper.

A majority of the news websites that you come across on the internet are the online representation of the existing newspapers. You may also find websites that are exclusively built for a particular kind of news, whereas there are others that provide you with different section of news.

This simply results in the fact that once the printing for the day is over if anything happens after that, you will only get to read about it the next day. Being precise, when you consider this option, you always get to read stale news, when you choose a newspaper, which has already been read by the internet users through online websites.

When you choose to go through a printed newspaper, you will have to go through the complete newspaper to find the desired information. But with online news websites, it becomes easier to go through different news sections. You are provided with a simple search option that makes it easier for you to look for news that you desire.

These online websites provide you with information about everything that is happening all around the world. These websites are available for 24 hours of the day and you can view the news or read the articles with just a click of your mouse.
