The line graph illustrates the percentage of people accessing news from four sources TV, radio, newspapers, and the internet over a period from 1995 to 2025.
Overall, the internet shows a dramatic increase in usage, while newspapers and radio experience a steady decline. Although TV remains the most popular source throughout the period, its usage slightly decreases over time.
In 1995, TV was the dominant source, with around 68% of people relying on it for news. However, this figure declined steadily over the years, reaching approximately 55% by 2025. Newspapers also had a high percentage, starting at about 55%, but witnessed a continuous drop, falling below 40% by the end of the period. Similarly, radio, which was used by nearly 50% of people in 1995, gradually declined to just over 20% in 2025.
In contrast, the internet, which was almost non-existent in 1995, began rising sharply after 2005. By 2020, it had surpassed both newspapers and radio, and by 2025, its usage is projected to reach nearly 55%, making it the second most popular news source.
