Here is the news
Article Abstract:
News coverage has changed, with less foreign news in mainstream newspapers, and more human interest stories. This trend could have implications for democracy, which relies on the spread of information. Specialist information is available from a range of sources, including the internet, but there does not appear to be not enough basic information in mainstream publications. There has been a trend toward the impact of companies' activities on the environment, health and food, and this reflects the declining role of the state. Meanwhile, less coverage of foreign news could reflect a trend toward peace.
