Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension
The editor must never forget that the success of any
newspaper depends on advertising. He is usually anxious
to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason.
But if the newspaper is well written and the news items
have been carefully chosen to attract local readers, the
businessmen are thankful for the opportunity to keep their
products in the public eye.
Local newspapers do not often comment on problems of
national importance and editors rarely hold with taking
sides on political questions. But they can oftenbe of service
to the community in expressing public feeling on local issues,
A newspaper can sometimes persuade the council to take action
to provide better shopping facilities, improve transport
in the area and preserve local monuments and places of interest.
These papers often sound rather dull and it seems surprising
that they all make a profit. But for many people in small
towns and villages the death of someone known to them or
the fix of traffic lights at a busy corner nearby can sometimes
be more important than a disaster in a foreign country.
