Newspaper is a voice of administration and the great possibility to get to know some latest news. You can buy it on the corner. You can find it on a street (but it is not the latest issue for sure). It has articles and pics. Everyone can become a newswriter, and aven get some in-game money by creating an interesting article

(!) Spoiler: powerful players can create their own newspaper. They will need money, a place to print it, and some administration connections, of course. As usual.
