Read in a bartender guide that customers prefer bartenders who read newspapers?
and who are up on the news in society, as they may not have time to read themselves so they go to a bar just to learn about current events from bartenders, is this true? What kinds of bars function this way? certainly not night clubs?

Speaking from experience behind the bar, basically it depends on the type of bar that you are working at. Always good to keep up to date, dont have to get it from a news paper though. Stay away from religion and politics. And being a guy, most customers came in asking for final scores, and who won what game, who are they playing next, who has been traded where... Just try and figure out what kind of people go to your bar and you should be fine
I am a hotel manager and I would say that it is an essential role for bartenders to know what is going on, not because customers do not have time to read, but because customers would like to share and discuss certain events and information while having a drink.
and off course you do not find this at a large scale in night clubs.
