  • Kenia Radionachrichtenredaktuer David Bondo

    David Bondo, Radio News Editor, Kenya

    “I do read the paper but would rather to go online to get my news. Online you have information immediately. When you read the paper, it’s yesterday’s news.”

  • Gabriela Garcia Calderon, Lima

    "Early in the morning, I switch on my phone and check the news online. Later, I turn on the radio and listen to a 24/7 news station. During office hours, I check local Peruvian online news almost every five minutes. I tend to check foreign papers too, mainly in English. I don't usually watch news on TV though because in Peru, the programs aren't good at all!"

    "To me, the Internet is a medium that transcends the barrier of space and time that provides access to unlimited knowledge with precision and accuracy. It allows for the dissemination of information and foster conversations with all kinds of people across age group and geographical barriers. This is where I learn and share knowledge for others to learn."

    “Every evening after work I use my smartphone to go online for an hour to read the news, plus I listen to BBC and watch TV. My main language is French and the radio stations in Ghana broadcast in English. Being able to read the news on the Internet in French is very important for me—I want to know what is happening in other countries around the world.”

    "First thing in the morning, I go online to see what has happened overnight. I also watch at least 30 minutes of TV news – both local and global networks. Once I'm out of the house, I read local newspapers and I try to keep an eye on Twitter during the rest of the day. Occasionally, I get my hands on a printed magazine and read some analysis pieces."

  • Emad Takroori, Palestinian Territories

    "The internet is my main source of information even though it's a little bit expensive. I mainly use my laptop to get online at home and at university although I have a smartphone. I check social media and several online news websites a day for local and international news. It's the fastest way to get information because it's being updated every minute."

    “I get my news and information through all kinds of media, newspapers, online and radio. I like online because it allows me to link up to other people easily, especially other journalists.”
