An online newspaper is the online version of a newspaper, either as an independent publication or as the online version of a printed newspaper. Going online created more opportunities for newspapers, such as competing with television journalism by presenting breaking news in a more timely manner. The credibility and strong brand recognition of well-established newspapers, and the close relationships they have with advertisers, are also seen by many in the newspaper industry as strengthening their chances of survival. Moving away from the printing process can also help reduce costs.
Online newspapers such as print newspapers, have legal restrictions on defamation, privacy and copyright that also apply to online publications in most countries, such as the United Kingdom. In addition, the UK Data Protection Act applies to online newspapers and news pages. Until 2014, the PCC ruled in the United Kingdom, but there was no clear distinction between authentic online newspapers and forums or blogs. In 2007, a resolution was passed to formally regulate UK online newspapers, news audio and news websites that cover the responsibilities expected of them and to clarify what is and what is not a news publication online.
News reporters are being taught to film videos and write in the succinct way necessary for news pages on the Internet. Some newspapers have tried to integrate the Internet into all aspects of their operations, for example, the writing of printed and online stories, and classified ads that appear in both media, while other newspaper websites may be quite different from the corresponding printed newspaper. .
