The 2017 digital news report of the
Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism acknowledged the
success of ANSA's websites and put this down to the reputation
for accuracy that Italy's leading news agency enjoys.
"ANSA, a rare example of news agency that has attracted
significant online reach, is particularly valued for accuracy,"
read the report, which was released Thursday.
It said ANSA "has developed a consumer reputation for fast
reliable news" with 46% of its users considering it is best for
this.
Almost a quarter of users, 23%, said ANSA was best for
understanding complex issues.
The report said ANSA was the fourth biggest online news brand
in Italy, with 21% of people surveyed saying they use it at
least once a week.
Other top brands included Repubblica.it, 28%, TgCom24, 27%,
Sky Tg24, 26%, and Corriere della Sera, 20%.
