The morning news habit – the ritual of checking the headlines over breakfast or during the morning commute – is an important part of Australian life.
A 2018 US study of news-consumption behaviour found many respondents follow the same routine reading news at specific times every day.
Whether in print or online, news media continues to set the daily agenda.
Around the world, a Reuters Institute study found online services are the first source of daily news with many seeking out the news of the day before they even get out of bed.
