Abstract

Newspapers have been an important part of the society, providing information to citizens, convening groups around event and issues. In Bangladesh, newspapers have always been playing a vital role in shaping the people’s opinion since the time of our liberation war till today. In the context of our country, newspaper is the only medium that provides its readers more detailed and follow up information than TV news channels. In these cases, a newspaper can make a stronger impact in the public sphere than any other media related sectors like TV channels, or magazines. That is why I decided to join a newspaper company as an intern, and also to fulfill my long cherished desire to start my career as a newspaper journalist. Newspaper serves many purposes. Every newspaper holds much influence and power. A newspaper helps us to enhance our knowledge and broaden our vision. Newspaper is one of the most effective mediums that keep us informed about the current events of the world. It gives us information about latest discoveries, inventions, researches, incidents etc. It also helps the traders to advertise their products all around the world through advertising in the papers. In modern times, businesses cannot thrive without advertisements. With the world becoming globalized and the variety of products, services and ideas increasing, newspapers are undoubtedly become one of the mediums of advertising. It also guides the government in times of national crisis and natural disasters through its editorial and op-eds. However, newspapers serve the public not only in terms of information and entertainment, but also in terms of creating a strong economic atmosphere by making people aware of economic issues and crisis around the world through prediction and suggestions in the newspaper’s economic forum.
