What is the full form of NEWS

NEWS: North East West South

There is no full form of NEWS as such. The English word “NEWS” was developed in the 14th century for the adjective “new” or “new thing”. Many claim that “NEWS” is as an acronym of ‘North East West South’.

Basically, it is information about the current events which can be provided through different media including word of mouth, postal systems, electronic communication, printing, broadcasting, or through the testimony of observers and witnesses to events.

NEWS topics usually include war, politics, health, economy, the environment, education, business, fashion, and entertainment, as well as athletic events, or unusual events.

Humans by nature, exhibit a nearly universal desire to learn and share news, which they satisfy by sharing information with each other. Social and technological developments, often driven by government communication and espionage networks, have increased the speed with which news can spread, as well as influenced its content. It is commonly thought that NEWS is an acronym of the four main directions (north, east, west, and south), as news comes from everywhere. This is not true. “News” is just a plural of the word “new”, indicating events that have recently happened.
