On British Newspapers
1 Besides the daily newspapers, there are a number of Sunday newspapers in Britain. Many of them are connected with the "dailies", though not run by the same editor and his members. The Sunday papers are larger than the daily papers and usually contain more articles concerned with comment and general information rather than news. The national daily and Sunday papers have the largest circulation in the world. Of the Sunday papers, the Observer and the Sunday Times are the best known.

This has probably been caused by the ever-wider use of radio and television The most successful magazines are those published for women.

They also provide advice to those in love, and adventures with handsome heroes. Some women's magazines also include serious articles of more general interest.
3 The visitor who looks at the magazines displayed in a large bookstall which may be found in an important railway station will notice that there is wide variety of technical books and magazines. There are magazines for the motorist, the farmer, the gardener, the nurse, and many others.

Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensati onal”, which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events.But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with television.
Just as American newspapers give way to all tastes, so do they also try and apply to readers for all political persuasions.A few newspapers support extremist (过激分子)groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers attempt to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are essentially moderate.Many of these papers print columns by well-known journalists of different political and social views in order to present a balanced picture.
As in other democratic countries American newspapers ca n be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once bravely uncovered political scandals (丑闻)or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair.The newspapers dr ew the attention of the public to the fears of the Vietnam War.

Messages from the Media
1 The weather forecast, a story about the candidates in an election, and movie reviews are examples of message from the media. A communication medium, of which the plural(复数的)form. is media, is a means of communicating a message. Examples of media are television, radio, newspapers and books and the telephone. The media that can reach many people at once are called mass media.
2 It is not difficult to think of other messages we receive through the mass media. Every day we get hundreds of them. Think about advertisements, for example. We see and hear these messages almost everywhere we go. Advertisements are important messages, even though they are sometimes annoying. They help us compare and evaluate products.
3 Most of us get more information from the media than from the classroom. Think, for a moment, about how you learn about local news and events. Do you depend on other people or the media？ What about international news？ What is the most important source of information for you？ People who are asked this question usually answer, “television”.
4 Think of all the messages you received today. Perhaps you read a newspaper during breakfast, or maybe you read advertisements on billboards(露天广告牌)on your way to school did you listen to a weather forecast or the sports news on the radio this morning？ Right now you are getting information through a very important medium of mass communication — a book.
5 We use the information we get from radio, television, newspapers, and other media to make decision and form. opinions. That is why the mass media are so important. Editorials and articles in newspapers help us decide how to vote, consumer reports on television help us decide how to spend our money, and international news on the radio makes us think and form. opinions about questions for war and peace.
