Platforms for online news consumption in Argentina

In Argentina, news links posted in social media by users were the most popular way to access to digital news, as reported by 56 percent of participants of a survey carried out in 2020. Visiting digital news portals was the second most common way to consume this type of content in the South American country, with 54 percent of respondents. In contrast, news apps registered a low penetration rate that year, with only six percent. That same year, over half of Argentine respondents said that they consume online news several times a day.
