Description

This survey forms part of a series of local readership studies undertaken within the research program ´Dagspresskollegiet´. The surveys deals with the relation toward dailies and media in general, and toward the local paper in particular. There are questions about the use of media, dailies read, and what kind of news paper content one reads. This survey is mainly a replication of a survey conducted in the same five municipalities in 1986.
