Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 :

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

 

As people have quicker access to news, as soon as they happen in any part of the world, print media is definitely losing its charm. People do not have to wait for the news vendors to deliver their newspaper next day in order to know what is going in the world. They can simply switch on their televisions or smartphones and watch or read news. Thus, both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
