Web Overtakes Newspapers In Europe
AFP:
The Internet has overtaken newspapers and magazines as Europeans’ main source of news and feature-type information, according to a new study.
On average, Europeans spend an average of four hours per week online, compared to three hours reading newspapers and magazines, it added. In 2003 they spent only two hours a week online.
“The fact that Internet consumption has passed print consumption is an important landmark for the establishment of the Internet in the European media mix,” said JupiterResearch’s vice-president Mark Mulligan.
But television continues to be the dominant medium for most people, with Europeans spending three times as much time watching programmes as going online, said the report by JupiterResearch.
