Most people don't take the time to read the real news.     小題2:  These techniques（技術，手段）are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper.

They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore.   小題4:  
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper?  小題5:  Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?
