Nearly eight in 10 urban adults read daily newspapers every week according to the latest readership study released by Newspaper Audience Databank (NADbank Inc.). The 2011 Mid-Year Study includes daily newspaper readership data from fall, 2011 and spring, 2012 from major Canadian markets including Toronto, Montréal, Vancouver, Ottawa-Gatineau, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Halifax.
“The results of this study confirm that daily newspapers continue to be a vital source of news, information and entertainment for consumers,” said NADbank president Anne Crassweller.
“Readers migrate between print and web editions of newspapers on a daily basis, however printed editions continue to be the most popular way to ‘read’ a newspaper," she said. The readership of daily newspapers for both printed and online editions remains stable in all these markets.
