News media are the means or methods by which people learn what is happening in the city, in the country and in the world.

Electronic media use air waves to send news into homes, offices and public places. Print media are usually divided into magazines and newspapers. Most newspapers print news daily. For example, the newspaper “ The New York Times” is published every day of the year. Most news magazines are published weekly, for instance. Newsweek and Time magazines are published once a week. The electronic media are generally divided into radio and television. Radio news is news that you listen to. In the United States, many radio stations broadcast five minutes of news every hour. T.V news is news that you not only listen to but also watch. In Canada and the United States, for example, many people watch an hour of news on TV at 6 o’clock in the evening.
