Among such sources of news as newspapers, TV, radio, the Internet and so forth, I find TV the most preferable one for its instantaneity, visual-audio effects, user-friendliness, and authentic materials.
    
     TV news provides the audience with instant real-time information by broadcasting a variety of stories or events, each of which is often made up of a correspondent, the statements about the victims and their families, the interview of the witnesses, and public opinions. You get to see these components on TV news vividly presented from different perspectives, which can be updated fast in a span of time for a piece of news, thus making it a literally live show to some degree.

     Visual-audio effects are one of the best characteristics that TV news can boast. Not only is it appealing to people at all ages but it offers an easy means for you to grasp the main ideas and images efficiently. Besides, you can have fun watching TV news no matter whether you are audibly or visually oriented, no matter whether you are audibly or visually challenged. People with multiple orientations can also use the most help of TV news to obtain most joy and satisfaction.

     There is no denying that TV is the most user-friendly medium among all. For one thing, even an illiterate old lady from the countryside knows which button to press on the remote control of a TV set, or even better, knows how to turn up or down the volume on different occasions. For another, due to the clear designation with numbers for each channel and the well-executed interface, you can always change channels to suit your taste and even your political tendency.

     Authentic materials are heavily applied to TV news by showcasing the real scene of an event, the talk with the victims and their family, the testimony from witnesses, the claim of the attorney, and so on. All of these make it possible for viewers to watch a news like a documentary, which gains the most trust and reveals the facts the most it can.

     In short, TV is the best source of news as far as I am concerned. With the popularity of TV sets, now each family can have quick access to TV news such as that regarding class and work suspension during a typhoon. Deeper discussions on a specific issue are available on plenty of TV channels for those who seek deeper insight.
