Reading a newspaper is more of a challenge just because of the size of the paper. Some people like reading the newspaper at a desk or table using a dome magnifier.
Electronic book readers provide you with another option for reading a newspaper. You would need to buy a wirless reading device, like the Kindle, and then subscribe to your favorite newspaper. Your newspaper is automatically downloaded onto the wireless reading device (no need for a computer) every day. You can then magnify the font to a size that is readable for you.
