DEBUNKING
NEWSPAPER
MYTHS
To paraphrase Mark Twain, reports of newspapers' death are
greatly exaggerated, especially in Georgia. However, long-held
myths hold on forever, especially in the hearts of competing media
salesmen. Data developed by American Opinion Research (AOR)
dispels most of these shibboleths and casts a clear and bright light
on newspapers' strengths.
AOR is one of the nation's top independent research firms, with
no links to any specific client or organization. AOR's clients include
Procter and Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, General Motors, Citi Bank,
The New York Times Company, Seattle Times, McGraw-Hill,
Berlitz and many others.
Shoppers turn to the internet first when planning a
major product purchase.
Today's Consumer has almost completely abandoned
newspapers as a news and advertising source.
□ TRUE ^ FALSE
• Newspapers and their websites are the most used source of local
news and information; higher than local television, which is also
fragmented in most markets
• Georgia consumers rely on printed newspapers and their
websites more than any other source for local news and shopping
information, in both the Atlanta metro area and the rest of the state
□ TRUE ^ false
• Georgia consumers are more than 50% more likely to use
newspapers to find out what’s for sale before going shopping than any
other source
• Half of adults have made a purchase during an average 30-day
period because of something they saw or read in a printed newspaper or
newspaper website; 30% higher than any other advertising source
Radio, TV and direct mail are thriving in today's media
environment.
Newspaper readership has collapsed in the face of
increased internet usage.
□ TRUE ^ FALSE
• Two-thirds of Georgia adult consumers use a newspaper product
during an average week, either reading a printed newspaper or accessing a
newspaper website
• Females read more frequently than men, important since they
make most purchase decisions in traditional households
• Weekly community newspapers also have wide reach in Georgia;
almost six-in-ten adults read at least once a month, 40 percent during an
average week
• Weekly newspapers have long shelf life, which should make them
more attractive to advertisers; they remain in readers' homes about three
days, about half are kept five days or longer
• On average, two adults read each copy of a weekly newspaper
Newspaper websites are an afterthought by newspapers
and do not attract significant usage.
□ TRUE ^ FALSE
□ true ^FALSE
• Radio lacks effective reach; only 28% of consumers say they
listen to a commercial when it comes on a station, most other pay little or
no attention
• Few consumers (19%) watch commercials when they come on
television; the vast majority of adults do something else, such as household
chores, lower the sound, change the channel or leave the room
• Direct mail also has little effective reach; about a third of
consumers say they read it thoroughly, but more than 2/3 just glance at it,
or throw it away without reading
N MainStreet
EWSPAPER
• More than 1.3 million Georgia adults use a newspaper website
daily, almost 2.8 million during an average week
• Adults age 18 to 34 visit newspaper websites as frequently as
any other age group
• Younger adults are also more likely to use a newspaper website
at least weekly
