A survey held in February 2022 revealed that most consumers never use newspapers as a source of news, and only 21 percent of adults aged 65 or above (those who engage with newspapers the most) reported reading newspapers every day. Newspapers are less popular as a news source than radio, and are also among the least used daily news sources among adults aged 18 years or older.
