Less than one third of Slovaks read newspapers everyday

Xinhua, August 17, 2015 Adjust font size:

Less than one-third of the Slovak population read country-wide printed daily newspapers, a recent nationwide MML-TGI survey carried out by Median SK agency published on Monday showed.

In the first half of 2015, printed daily papers were read by 31 percent of Slovaks, a fall of 2 percent year-on-year.

Ten years ago the survey showed that 52 percent of Slovaks read daily papers. The most widely read was the tabloid daily Novy Cas, accounting for 16 percent share of the market.

The survey was carried out on a sample of 4,385 respondents between 14-79 years of age in the period between January 5 and June 21, 2015. MMG TTL survey has been carried out every year in Slovakia since 1997. Endit
