Hello! I would like to request statistics on:
1) statistics regarding the number of people reading news papers 
 for each year (newspaper readership) or % of the population reading newspapers for each year

2) what newspapers do these people prefer

3) number of subscribers of each Philippine newspaper brand

4) how many people use social media to check news updates



Preferrably from 1960 to 2020 but any data within this time period would be appreciated.

Any related article or reading that shows that less and less people are reading newspapers nowadays is also appreciated. Thank you so much
