News- Is It Useful?

News can be a very useful source of information, but there is also a lot of useless news. Like some newspapers are full of gossip about celebrities and their lives. Whether this news is useful or useless depends on the person who read it. Different people think different things are important. For some people reading news about Britney Spears and Paris Hilton might be useful and interesting, but for other people this kind of news can mean nothing. I do not think gossip should have a place in a newspaper; a newspaper should be about news. Of course if something happens to a very famous person and it has an impact on the rest of the world it should be in the newspapers, but mainly I think it should be pure news. It seems like the newspapers are getting more and more articles about gossip, specially the once you can read online. I guess there is a reason why the gossip is there; people want to read about that. But now enough about gossip, the news are so much more than that. News can be really useful; they can show people what’s going on in the world. I think news can be a good way of open peoples mind and make us realize what is going on around the world. By reading about what happens in the rest of the word it can put your own situation and country in new or different perspective. I think it is important to see what is going on in the rest of the world, and news is a good way of showing that.
