What: We looked at ComScore's data on the most-visited news websites in Latin America and particularly Mexico in January 2018.
Why it matters: 57.6% of Latin American users looked for news online, while 85% of Mexicans with an internet connection browsed news websites.
Latin Americans' interests touch various areas, but being well-informed of the news is an activity that most people everywhere consider important. We have seen that internet users in Latin American countries look for many types of online content, from travel information to sports and entertainment, but the news is the kind of content they consume more. More than half of all Latin Americans with internet access (57.6%) looked at the news online in January, and these were the sites where they did so.
