In the American colonies, newspapers took second place to news gathered by social interaction because, in those days information on public matter was scarce; information is usually spread by words of mouth and those information released to the public are usually controlled by those in power. Thus, newspapers usually contain information, which have been watered down or diluted to fit the public consumption.

The freedom of speech in the colonies was not a thing back then during the British rule in the colonies. So, you can understand the British wanting to keep their grip on the colonies thus the British governors usually restricted what could be printed in the newspaper and thus there wasn't that much information in the newspapers themselves and the newspapers were scarce.

*Needs to be completed in the next 3 hours*

Andru [333]

Answer:

Explanation:

To make the world a better place for everyone is not a simple task, The majority of you may ask: "Why?". Well, One of the mostbasic reasons is that this world is ihabited by billions and billions of people, and if it's difficult and nearly impossible to find a single topic in which a whole country agrees, imagine finding something that joins the interests of the whole world?

Secondly, accordong to Freudian theory, human beings always have an uncomplete desire. You yourself, maybe you need something in this moment, and when you get it, there will be another object of your desire. Human beings never stop looking for complete happiness, or something that fullfills all of their needs, something they never, ever find. The majority don't even know what they are looking for.

Anyway, in order to make of this world a better place for anyone, from the biologistpoint of view, we humans should start taking care of it a little more. If every single human being starts recycling, or throwing their rubbish in the bin instead of in the street, pollution would gradually decrease until it finally gets to the minimum.

Anothe way of making the world a better placewould be trying to be more tolerant among each other. It's not difficult to stop saying bad comments or sharing destructive opinions towards other people. If every human being could save only 1 negative comment per day, the atmosphere would be a little less harsh for anyone.
