You can bet your ad dollars on it - 18 to 34 year-olds spend more time
with newspapers in print than online, according to a December 2017 report,
published in the United Kingdom's Journalism Studies Journal, which
found 89 percent of national newspaper reading is still in print.
"We are interested in the time that people spend with newspaper brands,
because this allows us to compare online and print audiences in a way you
can't easily do if you just look at readership," said Neil Thurman, professor
at City, University of London and.LMU University of Munich, and one of
the report's authors.
