The source provided the following information regarding the sample: "Please note that Brazil is representative of an urban population rather than a national population; as such the internet penetration is likely to be higher than stated above, which must be taken into consideration when interpreting results." The source provided the following information regarding the data: "The results will under-represent the consumption habits of people who are not online (typically older, less affluent, and with limited formal education)."
During the survey this question was posed as follows: "Typically, how often do you access news (in any way)? By news we mean international, national, regional/local news and other topical events accessed via radio, TV, newspaper or online."
