Title Australians are less interested in news and consume less of it compared to other countries, survey finds Degree of recognition National Media name/outlet The Conversation Media type Web Duration/Length/Size 900 words Country/Territory Australia Date 12/06/19 Description Australian news consumers access news less often and have lower interest in it compared to citizens in many other countries. At the same time, Australians are more likely to think the news media are doing a good job keeping them up to date and explaining what’s happening.
These findings are contained in the Digital News Report: Australia 2019. In its fifth year, the Digital News Report Australia is part of a 38-country survey coordinated by the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism at the University of Oxford.Producer/Author Caroline Fisher Persons Caroline FISHER, Sora PARK, Glen FULLER, Yoonmo SANG, Jee Young LEE
