Newspaper is a publication containing news, information and advertising, usually printed on relatively inexpensive, low-grade paper such as newsprint. It is typically issued daily, weekly, or bi-weekly. Newspapers are a primary medium for the dissemination of news and information to the public. They cover a wide range of topics, including current events, politics, business, sports, culture, and entertainment.

The format of a newspaper generally includes a masthead displaying the title and date, followed by articles, editorials, opinion pieces, photographs, and advertisements. Newspapers play a crucial role in a democratic society by informing citizens, holding power accountable, and fostering public discourse. The industry has undergone significant transformations with the advent of the internet, leading to the rise of online news platforms and a decline in print circulation for many publications. Despite these changes, newspapers continue to be a vital source of in-depth reporting and analysis.
