News is the communication of information on current events which is presented by print, broadcast, Internet, or word of mouth to a third party or mass audience.

History of news reporting

In its infancy, news gathering was primitive by today's standards. Printed news had to be phoned in to a newsroom or brought there by a reporter, where it was typed and either transmitted over wire services or edited and manually set in type along with other news stories for a specific edition. Today, the term "breaking news" has become trite as broadcast and cable news services use live satellite technology to bring current events into consumers' homes live as they happen. Events that used to take hours or days to become common knowledge in towns or in nations are fed instantaneously to consumers via radio, television, mobile phone, and the Internet.

What is the top news network and where do I find confirmation?
Q. I'm looking for proof that The Fox News Network is the top news network, or the most watched. Where can I find that info, or anything to the contrary? Cable or basic TV. Doesn't matter.

What news station do you think has the most accurate information about each Obama and McCain?
Q. Although I am only 16, I find it extremely difficult to turn it to a news station nowadays because if one news station supports Obama, of course they are only going to say positive things about him and vice versa with McCain. What news station do you think has the most accurate information about each Obama and McCain? Also, do you think that someone should research a candidate completely before voting for them? Like looking up their records? How well have you researched the candidate you are voting for? Thanks!

A. I agree it's difficult. I think BBC is the best option. Another thing I try to do is watch both sides of the networks...Keith Olberman, Rachel Maddow, Hardball with Chris Mathews and then Fox news channel for the other side...each will put out the stories on the other and you can compare/contrast and sometimes see backstories on each candidate that shows how they are lying now. The best is when they show McCain during his last try for president...his views and statements are opposite of what he is saying this time...so it's not biased, it's showing true flip flopping. Good for you that at such a young age you are showing great intellect by attempting to gather the truth and for not being so gullible as to believe that our "news" is… [cont.]

Why does the news seem to affect the stock market more now than in the past?
Q. When bad news hits, the market drops significantly. We already know about the mortgage problems, that the banks are hurting and so forth, yet when this is on the headlines, people panic. What's the deal?
Asked by Curious George - Thu Jan 17 01:00:43 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Perhaps the economic news are now more bad than before. And it's not just the headlines that affect the stock market. Companies are now reporting their earnings and/or losses. And stock traders are watching these earnings reports very closely. Citigroup has recently reported a $10 billion loss in the fourth quarter. And that's not the kind of loss any self-respecting stock trader can scoff at. Some other companies may be hiding big losses like that too. But eventually these companies will have to come clean. And that's what the stock traders are afraid of.
