News site

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A news site is a web site with the primary purpose of reporting news. There are two main types of news site: general news and subject-specific.

The first set of news sites emerged when traditional news providers moved their content online. These included The New York Times, CNN, and BBC News and The Communicator.

The offline news industry, newspapers in particular face a huge threat from the internet medium as more and more users have moved online for their news fare. This has resulted in declining newspaper subscription across the world.^{[citation needed]}
