Wherever anything happens in the world, reporters are on the spot to read,subscribe,gather,inventthe news. Newspapers have one basic purpose, to get the news as quickly as possible from its source, from those who make it to those who want to know it.

However, this competition merely spurred the newspapers on. They quickly made use of the newer and faster means of communication to improve the speed,column,rating,volumeand thus the efficiency of their own operations. Today more newspapers are printed and read than ever before. Competition also led newspapers to branch out into so many other fields.
