History, Publishers, Stories and Newspapers

Research Evidence Newspaper on Prezi

This is my first piece of research that I have completed on local newspapers. I thought to begin my research it would be good to look in to the history of newspapers and what newspapers are. I found that local newspapers are only published once a week compared to other national newspapers some which are published daily. However publishers are able to use forms of new media such as websites to stay in contact with the audience for local newspapers and publish any new important stories online before the newspaper is published. I have also research in to existing local newspapers and publishers for my local area, I found this very useful as I was able to gain more knowledge and information about local newspapers which will help me later when coming to create my newspaper. I also looked in the the influences on different types of stories and what stories are currently shown in local newspapers. This is very important as I have been able to see that education and sports are popular news stories and I could include stories on these in my newspaper.
