Secondly, amount of information provided by new media is really too large, while, newspaper is different from new media. Contents published on a professional newspaper have been neatened and selected by reporters and editors, so it is convenient to read. Thirdly, newspaper is localization, lots of local information still need to be reported by newspaper.
