Read Tamil News Online as and When It Happens

News reporting has been taken to another level thanks to the internet. Just a few years ago, people had to wait until TV or radio news segments at specific times, or wait for the newspapers every morning. Today, we can receive news alerts to our phones and update ourselves about the latest happenings by visiting our favorite news sites.

For Sri Lankan Tamil News

However, as convenient and simple as things have become, we are still looking for faster access, especially if the content we look for isn’t in English. If you are looking for the fastest way to get Tamil news online, these tips and tricks may come in handy.

If you are looking for Sri Lankan Tamil news, you have two ways to go; mainstream media or citizen journalism/social media. If you prefer mainstream media, you need to see which Sri Lankan newspapers or TV channels have updated and user-friendly websites. Most sites tend to be full of advertisements or are rarely updated. Checking how often the ‘breaking news’ segment is updated will give you an idea about how active the site is.

If you want to steer away from mainstream media, social media does offer reliable and accurate news outlets. Of course, you need to be careful about whom you follow or subscribe to because there is a lot of incorrect information or ‘fake news’ online.

This doesn’t mean that you can’t find reliable sources and constant updates in sites or blogs run by citizen or freelance journalists, and even social media users. For instance, by searching for tags like ‘Sri Lanka’ and ‘Tamil news’ you can find your way to Twitter users who will keep you updated.
There are also several news websites online that often provide unbiased reporting on various events. There you may also find interesting articles and opinion pieces that will be of interest to you.

For faster access to Sri Lankan Tamil news, subscribe to news alerts from media institutes that offer them. You can also subscribe to websites or be alerted whenever a news site is updated. Following your favorite sites on social media, whether Facebook or Twitter, is also extremely important.

For World Tamil News

While every newspaper has a section for foreign news, the news is often summarized and the coverage is limited. This is mostly because newspapers have to prioritize and give space for the most important news. Websites don’t face such problems, and so a wider range of world Tamil news can often be found online.

Like with Sri Lankan Tamil news, you can subscribe to newsletters or news alerts from local sites that have strong foreign news sections. However, you can also move beyond local media and subscribe to foreign Tamil news websites.

Here too, it’s important to not only decide which your favorite sites are but to also subscribe to them. This way, you will receive instant updates as opposed to be updated only when you remember to visit those sites.

As for world Tamil news, you can also rely on social media like Facebook pages, Twitter accounts and YouTube channels for the latest information. Turn on notifications or alerts from the accounts so that you don’t miss a thing.

There are also quite a few bloggers who maintain blogs about world Tamil news. You have to expect a few biases and opinions in these articles but some writers steer clears of personal opinions and put in a lot of research into their articles.

If You Are Looking for Breaking News

With every passing minute, there’s something important taking place in the country and even the world. The most significant of these qualify as breaking news and it’s important that we have fast access to breaking news.

From drastic weather conditions, acts of violence, accidents to strikes and protests, it is necessary that we are updated on what’s going on around us. This is why subscribing to breaking news is an absolute must.

As mentioned before, there are Sri Lankan news platforms, whether belonging to mainstream or social media, which offer breaking news alert services. Subscribing to such a service will guarantee quick updates on breaking news so you won’t be in the dark about anything.

Foreign Tamil-language news outlets may also allow you to subscribe to their breaking news updates, which means you’ll either receive an email, notification or message about any important goings on in the world.

Where to Look and What to Look For

Websites, social media accounts, news alerts and subscriptions are things you need to look for if you want fast access to Tamil news. Apps too, come in handy here. Download individual news apps or even ones that bring you news from your preferred sites to one place. This way, you can switch on notifications for these apps and be alerted of things as they happen.

For fast access, look for constantly updated sites, active social media accounts and user- and mobile-friendly sites, apps, etc. Language and device support is also important when looking up Tamil news online.

Thus with a few changes to your online searches for news, you can access Tamil news online in no time at all.
