Question

Recall a current news item in the newspaper or television. Give an account of the matter and your opinion​

Answer 1

We asked all our respondents to select their five most important types of news. As with last year, domestic news is the most popular type of news, closely followed by international, local, and regional news. Mirroring political and media structures, we see that regional news is most important in Germany. Local news matters more in a vast country like the United States where city newspapers and local TV stations have become a core part of the media diet. Our sample from urban Brazil tends to place more importance on business and financial news, health and education news, and science and technology news
