Before newspapers were invented, town criers would go through city streets ringing a bell. They shouted the latest news as they were walking.

 In Viet Nam people love reading newspapers and magazines. The Kien Thuc Ngay Nay is one of the most popular magazines and is widely read by both teenagers and adults.

Thanks to television people can get the latest information and enjoy interesting programs in an inexpensive and convenient way. Nowadays, viewers can watch a variety of local and international programs on different channels.

The next stage in the development of television is interactive TV. Viewers are able to ask questions about the show by using their remote controls.
