Many people who do not have access to the television or the radio to find News as a form of entertainment.
In the infancy of mass media, news was not distinguished from entertainment but soon that was established. Examples of News are News, Special reports, observations, reviews, Speeches, articles, diaries, letters, web resources, etc. The most important feature of News is the news alert or report. This is a summary of the whole article that is generally presented in the form of an article with references to additional reading material or other reference materials such as newspapers or magazines, where the original article was published.
Online journalism is another innovative way of disseminating news.

Some news stories are reported from local media outlets, while some are from international media outlets. There are many online sources from which one can get the news. News from blogs is of special interest to the youth sector, which is why news stories from such sources such as social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter have become very popular.
