I really look forward to the results of The Monitor’s annual audience survey — not because I think everyone will love everything we do (um, you don’t) but because I know I’m going to learn a lot about our community: What people think is important, what news they need, and how they feel about their roles as citizens.
Thank you for that. This year, as last, the response to our appeal was startlingly strong: About 40% of subscribers completed the survey – indicating that, like us or not, you care deeply about the news and how it informs civic life.
In many ways, what you told us was consistent with the results a year ago. On the single question that matters most to me, 61% of respondents said they strongly agree with the statement, “I trust The Monitor”; another 31% somewhat agreed. Likewise, 90% agreed that “The Monitor tells me what I need to know about what’s happening in our community.”
