The bar chart illustrates what types of media people of various age ranges used to acquire news on a daily basis in a country in 2011. It is clear that radio was the most popular way of accessing news daily for all age groups but 10-17-year-olds, whereas micro-blogging was the least chosen option for all age brackets.
About the same proportion of people in 18-29, 30-49, and 50-64 age profiles acquired news every day through radio, at around 95% each. 65+ age group came a close second with just under 90%, but the figure for the youngest age group was nowhere near, at only 40%.
Regarding social network use to get news daily, we can see that 10-17 and 18-29 age categories dominated, having identical proportional numbers of 80%. However, the proportions for older age groups were a lot lower, at approximately 45% for 30-49-year-olds, roughly a third for 50-64-year-olds and merely a tenth for the oldest age range.
Finally, micro-blog access to obtain news every day was the least popular option. Those in the 18-29 age category had the highest proportion in this regard, at around a quarter, followed closely by the youngest age group at a fifth. By contrast, the other three age profiles had even smaller figures at about 12%, 8% and 3% for 30-49-, 50-64- and 65+ year-olds, respectively.
