Newspapers are made from a type of paper called newsprint. Coniferous softwoods such as spruce, pine, and cedar provide long (average 3mm), strong fibers. Newsprint needs strength enough to withstand the demands of fast printing presses, the ability to accept high-quality color printing and enough opacity to prevent the printing showing through the pages. In most temperate coniferous forests, evergreen conifers predominate, while some are a mix of conifers and broad leaf evergreen trees and/or broad leaf deciduous trees.
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
