NewsPaper Addiction

I have neevr been addicted to newspaper. Newspaper is to read and understand the news, not to pore over it the whole day and I do not think getting addicted to newspaper or, for that matter, any other thing is good for health.

I get my newspaper daily. I do not enjoy watching news on TV or net. Moroever, most of the TV News channels serve you everything other than NEWS. I can read my newspaper at my leisure and as per my convenience, however, for watching TV news, I'll have sit in front of my TV. Reading newspapers is an old habit of mine and I just cannot be without my newspapers. If any day my hawker does not turn up, I go to the market to buy my copy of the newspaper. I get two newspapers everyday one English and one Hindi and read some of news in the morning, before I leave for my office and rest of the important news I try to scroll through in the evening, when I return from my office. On Sundays, I get three newspapers and love reading their supplments and magzines sections. I do not like watching TV programme, such as daily soaps etc., instead love to read something to enhance my knowledge and to give some mental exercise to my brain. I believe, when I read newspaper, it not only gives me a kind of mental stimulation and satisfaction but also keeps me updated about the latest happenings around the city, nation and the world.

I usually buy the paper in the morning but I don't read it until I'm ready for bed. Then I really enjoy reading the paper and doing the crossword puzzle and the dudoku. I guess the news is a bit stale but that doesn't really bother me.
