Contrary to popular belief, the word "NEWSPAPER" is not an acronym. It does not stand for "North, East, West, South, Past and Present Report" or any other phrase. This claim has been debunked by reputable sources such as Merriam-Webster and Snopes [1][2].
The term "NEWSPAPER" is simply a combination of the words "news" and "paper." A newspaper is a printed publication that contains news, articles of opinion, features, and advertising. The word "news" refers to a report of recent events [1].
