One way to see the world as it is is to be informed about what is happening on the planet. News about events of change can sometimes provide serious lessons to be learned or otherwise turn out to be subjects for gossip. Even though not directly affecting their daily lives, news reports in general enable people to increase their world knowledge and form their own opinions about global issues. Gaining knowledge, as eating food, is a basic human instinct. News is exactly that kind of knowledge which can mentally feed the audience. Driven by hunger for information, many modern people become accustomed to monitoring major events associated with the changing landscapes in various dimensions--economy, finance, politics, society, sports, entertainment, weather, global warming and environmental protection, science and technology, new products and services, celebrities and scandals, conflicts and wars, man-made catastrophes and natural disasters, and so on. Such events mostly may not affect peoples day-to-day lives, at least not directly; however, they can be enlightened by increasing their knowledge about the world in constant change. In short, people may feel like being educated in a global way. Those who do not know what is happening are unable to form their own thoughts and ideas. In a world of globalization, it is even more important for people not to be ignorant of what differences are being made beyond borders , for better or for worse. Well-informed people are likely to have their opinions leading to better choices in life. In fact, the popularity of quality stories about world events underlies the influence of the news media. Now that events happening anywhere are being reported on radio, on television and online as well as in printed circulations, it is as if news were in the air. Thus, the public cannot but breathe in tune with the changing world. It is evident that knowledge from news and opinions based on up-to-date international information can be part and parcel of peoples daily lives to some extent. As the world is changing, people need to learn new knowledge to take a glance at an ever-changing shape of the new reality. Besides, lives may be more enjoyable and less boring if there is more stuff for gossiping.
