Newspapers

Why is news important?

  • It is important the UK has newspapers so we can be informed of national and worldwide events.
  • It helps us get a range of views, which then helps us create our own opinions.
  • To participate in discussions and debate.
  • To be educated.
In 2020, journalism is important. Without it, the truth can be shaped and we would never know. The press keep governments and big companies in line.

Censorship

Media is not censored in the UK, however, some information may not be released to the oublic if it is deemed harmful to the public. This is called protective coverage.
Editors of newspapers can leave out a story if the believe it is harmful to the public or if it does not fit the political views and opinions of their newspaper.

Blumler and Katz

"Newspapers used to own a story for 24 hours, now they own it for 24 seconds"
