International news draw average reader’s attention
According to the latest research of Harrison-Stetson institute Average Reader is interested of international news and concerned of the state of the world.
Harrison-Stetson institute made the research by monitoring reading results of the Finland’s biggest newspaper, Helsingin Sanomat.
“It seems that the readers are interested of international news. The top article on the most read news is about less known South-American country Paraguay and it’s population, “Pretty Paraguay’s javelin thrower gathers attention”, second regards to difficult ethical decisions in US, “Both of Chistina Applegate’s breasts were removed” and the Domestic news are taking the third place and is about an important statistical research, “Finnish have sex less than before” Harrison Stetson summarised the research “Clearly we can draw a conclusion that the Finnish population and Average Reader seem to be strongly fascinated of the international news and know what matters”.
On other news 148 was reported dead on a plane crash in Madrid.
