Old vs News Media

As we may know media is anything that can communicate to people. In the past with had a media that wasn’t that faster as the one that encompass today. We classified the old media as the newspaper, radio and television. When we had those media, we would have to wait for a certain times to be communicated, such as in order to read the newspaper we would have to wait for the morning or evening. Also, sometimes we were not that inform about what were happening on other countries. During the era of the old media, we were kind “outdated.” But definitely, the new media came to renovate the old version of the media. We consider new media to everything that require a digital computer for the distribution or exhibition, such as, newspaper online, social networks, eBooks, blog, wiki, Google, and YouTube. Thanks to this new media we are better informed, we can see different versions of news. We are better informed of what is happening of other countries or even read other countries newspaper. The new media gave us the opportunity to meet new people from anywhere in the world. Now we can be informed immediately as a tragedy happen anywhere, and we have available the newspaper updated anytime that we want to read it. The new media definitely make our life easier than the old media.
