The RISJ Digital News Report is out
The Oxford Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism published its annual Digital News Report last week, which interviewed 93,000 respondents from 46 markets across the globe to learn more on how audiences are consuming news.
To read highlights from the report, RISJ created a Twitter thread here with data and takeaways from the study.
