WITH increasing numbers of people checking news updates on their cell phones, it may come as a surprise that about 2.7 billion adults – nearly half of the world’s adults – still read newspapers in print.

And since almost all major newspapers have digital (电子的) versions (版本), about 800 million people read digital papers, said the organization.
