The line graph illustrates the proportion of people reached news via four sources-TV, radio, newspaper, and internet-at 5-year intervals, from 1995 to 2025.
Overall, the access to conventional news: TV, radio and newspapers is projected to dip by the end of the period, while the proportion of people using the internet will increase substantially, despite being the lowest initially.
In 1995, newspapers were used widely by approximately 80% of people, a chart-high figure, this figure, however, is set to decline to 50% by 2025. Next come, radio and TV news outlets, mirroring the same dropping trend, albeit at a lower rate. At first, nearly 60% of people accessed information through the services, a figure that then is expected to drop dramatically by almost 40% in 2025.
Conversely, internet news sources was unavailable between 1995 and 2000. By 2005, it started to be used by a mere 20% of people. Even though it started the chart at the later, it will have surpassed other three conventional news, by 2025, reaching a whopping 60% of users.
