- A Bigger
According to a Reuters Institute survey report, an increasing number of people are choosing to avoid news.
In 2017, the proportion of respondents avoiding news averaged only 27% across the surveyed countries. However, this figure rose to an average of 38% in 2022.
Of the approximately 64,000 respondents who regularly avoided news in 2022, the majority, or 43%, did so because of the excessive amount of political news and COVID-19 coverage.
Furthermore, 36% of respondents felt that news frequently negatively impacted their mood.
A total of 29% of respondents felt overwhelmed by the sheer volume of news, and another 29% considered the news to be often biased or unreliable.
Additionally, 17% of respondents avoided news to avoid getting involved in arguments, and another 16% felt unable to respond or take any action based on the information they received from the news.
This survey was conducted using an online questionnaire from late January to early February 2022. The survey involved 64,120 respondents from 46 countries.
