Everyone watches the news, whether it is sports highlights, the weather, or just for insight on what is happening in other countries or even around your own country. The problem with the news is that it is always on at a specific time. On YouTube you will always be able to find the latest news if you can't make it home to watch it on TV. Also YouTube is a benefit for the news because after being aired on TV it can be watch repeatedly on YouTube making the subject a much bigger topic. YouTube has news reports uploaded from other prior years which is good because people who have not experienced certain history before they can learn about it from YouTube. For example, the events of 9/11. Because it happened around 10 years ago, it is not something that is always on TV but it is still a topic being talked about because it is recent. When people hear about 9/11 and want to re-watch the events that happened they can search it up on YouTube.YouTube does not always have to be for serious news broadcast. It can capture the moments that will never be aired on the news again, for example: When a news broadcaster screws up live and is now been seen by the whole world every day on YouTube.
My personal favorite thing about the news is sports highlights because I am a huge sports fan. I believe that YouTube is great for historic sports moments so they can be viewed all the time and still get the recognition that they deserve. I say this because sometimes there are just too many games on in the same night and you cannot watch all of them at once.
Isn't it just wonderful? Youtube is so useful for most things. I must say, I almost died laughing at that epic fail video...good stuff :P
ReplyDeleteTrue, I don't watch news. I just catch the important stuff on Youtube. It's really useful and a great distraction too. That's the best part about it, it's got something for everyone. I watched the epic fail video too... hilarious! Thank God for video cameras haha
ReplyDeleteThat first video is awesome, my favorite was the news reporter that was snow-piled. Youtube is useful to find any video of anything you missed because nearly one hour afterwards it's almost guaranteed that it will be on the net.
ReplyDeleteI agree with everything you said, Youtube truly is a great source to watch repeatedly things that are no longer aired on televison. Also there's so many options to choose from regarding the same topic so it allows a person to see things from many different point of views. Good job !
ReplyDeleteNot gonna lie for some research essays I've used the news from like tens year back that Youtube had, so it's actually really useful. The video for the epic fail one was so funny!
ReplyDeleteYea YouTube is great for that kind of thing, catching the news can be hard sometimes, so finding it there is always good. There are always some interesting stuff going on in the world that gets posted on YouTube so it works well!
