of print media and electronic media. Print media use the written material to communicate news to
reader. 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. The electronic
media are generally divided into radio and television. Radio news is the one that you listen to. In the
