Modern Newspapers from the Perspective of Information ^†

Modern newspapers refer to those published and distributed in modern times. From the perspective of information, the modern newspaper is not only a horizontal transmission of social information but also a carrier of historical information. The advent of the Information Age has also shifted the carrier of modern newspapers to an electronic data carrier. Modern newspapers not only meet the needs of people to understand the current social reality by acquiring information but also can decipher and restore historical facts from the historical information contained in them according to the information retention characteristics of modern newspapers. The electronic newspaper database also expands the information carriers and dissemination channels for newspaper retention, presenting a new form of historiography.
