In earlier times tv, radio and newspapers were the only source of news for the people. But with the verge of internet in almost each and every field, it can be considered as one of the most important and common source of media related searches and activities.
These days every news channel and newspaper has got their own websites and every bit of news gets published on these websites. No matter where you are can get to know the news around you with just one click. Without getting a newspaper or writing any news channels, one can get to know all the news one needs to know.
THE HINDU
The HINDU is one of the leading daily English newspaper in the country, HINDU was one of the first newspapers to launch its own website in 1995. Looking at THE HINDU website, its design is quite simple and basic. Move over, follows a generic format. The website does not have features which can attract the attention of the viewer. The website also is not full of advertisements, like in some of the other websites. There is a separate column for all the advertisements.
MSNBC
MSNBC is an US based website. It is visually very rich. There are various pictures posted on the website which gives you an overview of the story inside. Looking at the website, the format seems to be complicated. The website although has less advertisements as compared to the Indian websites, but the articles and the other features are quite jumbled up. Personally, I didn’t find the website too interesting as it couldn’t hold me watching at it for a long time.
THE TIMES OF INDIA
The Times of India is probably the leading daily newspaper in India. It is owned by Bennett and Coleman Co & Ltd. The Times of India website is a complete package of news, information and entertainment. The website is well designed and is visually very appealing. The format on which the website is designed is very easy to access and each and every section is properly highlighted. One can easily go through the whole website. The language is simple and reader can enjoy reading the whole articles without any trouble. Besides all the above mentioned features, the website has videos which give you an overview of the story inside.
The website also has a blog section which helps an individual to express his/her opinion about a particular issue. This helps in getting a response of the reader about the overall happenings.
Personally, I am very satisfied with TOI website. And whenever I have to look for any media related activities I always log onto the TOI website. So, all my votes go in favour of the TOI website.
