Latest emma news tracking metrics show crisis is prompting demand for news
The COVID-19 pandemic has seen local news outlets reach a new high of 18.2 million readers, the highest figure recorded since the introduction of Enhanced Media Metrics Australia (emma) in 2013, with consumption of digital news sites the key driver.
Across measured digital platforms, news sites reached 17.2 million Australians, representing 91 per cent of the population aged 14+, a 10 per cent audience increase compared to the previous period (December 19). At the same time, print audiences continued to reach 12.7 million, or two in three Australians.
NewsMediaWorks CEO, Peter Miller, said trusted news and information has never been more important to Australians and this shows in the marked increase in news media consumption.
“Misinformation has been rife during the pandemic, but these figures demonstrate Australians know to turn to the trusted medium of news media when accuracy and trust are critical,” Miller said.
“As we start to emerge from lockdown, the need for reliable and timely information will continue and for businesses looking to bounce back by advertising in credible media channels, the trust halo news media generates will play a crucial role in their recovery.”
The top 10 most read mastheads in Australia have also seen impressive increases in their audiences.

Flash back to the classic film, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Television-obsessed Mike insists on becoming the first person to be ‘sent by Wonkavision’, dematerialising on one end, pixel by pixel, and materialising in another space. His cinematic dreams are realised thanks to rash decisions as he is shrunken down to fit the digital universe, followed by a trip to the taffy puller to return to normal size.
Why is it there is no shortage of leadership development materials, yet outstanding leadership is so rare? Despite having access to so many leadership principles, tools, systems and processes, why is it so hard to develop and improve as a leader?
As a nation united by sport, brands are beginning to learn money alone won’t talk without aligned values and action. If recent events with major leagues and their players have shown us anything, it’s the next generation of athletes are standing by what they believe in – and they won’t let their values be superseded by money.
