ABSTRACT

This chapter addresses the mobile news consumption ecosystem by documenting and reporting how people receive/notice, read, find, share, and store news through their smartphones. There is a subsection for each news consumption activity (i.e., receiving, reading, finding, sharing, and storing news). We also outline in detail regarding how and why people consume news at various stages of consumption. In addition, demographic differences on each news consumption activity are reported. Furthermore, additional qualitative insights about mobile news consumption activities are provided.
