Ofcom released the UK news consumption report 2019, which examines how British adults and older children access news content through television, radio, print, social media, other Internet sources and magazines.
The survey found that while television remains the most popular way to get news, TV usage has declined since last year, with the proportion of adults falling from 79% to 75%. Meanwhile, news usage on social media rose from 44% to 49%.
Other findings include:
After television, the Internet is the second most popular news platform in 2019, with 66% of adults visiting, followed by radio (43%). More than one-third of adults (38%) read traditional paper newspapers for news. But if paper newspapers are combined with newspaper websites and applications, the proportion will increase to 49%.
BBC One remains the most popular news source, although usage has declined since last year, from 62% to 58%.
After BBC One, ITV (40%) and Facebook (35%) were the most commonly used news sources.
While Facebook’s news usage has remained stable, more people are using twitter (up from 14% last year to 16%), WhatsApp (from 10% to 14%) and instagram (from 9% to 13%).
Magazines are rated better than any other news source in terms of quality, accuracy, credibility and impartiality.
On these measures, social media platforms are often rated as the least popular. For example, only 37% of news readers who use social media think it is fair, compared with 78% of magazine users, 62% of TV users, 61% of radio users and 58% of print newspaper users.
Six out of every 10 children aged 12-15 are interested in news. Three quarters of children in this age group read, watch or listen to the news at least once a week.
