Media during lockdown

It has been observed that the print media has been much impacted during lockdown. Some vendors hesitate to deliver newspapers and readers also do not want to touch the newspapers due to coronavirus. Of course, now it is going to reduce this baseless scare. Further, the earning source of the print media has been reduced due to unavailability of advertisements. On the other hand, the electronic media does not face such hurdles.

Due to some relaxations now the earning source of print media has started to get unfold. Still, the general people are afraid of COVID-19.

Again, the younger generation has a habit of reading news in their mobile phones. So, they do not like to read newspapers.

Putul Sarma,
