According to the survey, 24 percent of respondents said they constantly watched news and broadcasts on global events on the First Baltic Channel in late 2016, while 14 percent said they watched them on RTR.

“This is about a third less than during the survey conducted at the end of 2015,” the ministry said in a press release.

In 2015, 32 percent of those polled specified the First Baltic Channel as their main source of news, while 26 percent said they watched RTR.
