Abstract
The article explores the key trends in news consumption among Russian-speaking migrants in Israel in years 2006–2018, representing the first longitudinal evaluation of news consumption patterns of this social group. The analysis is based on the open data collected from 2006 to 2018 by news agency newsru.co.il, ranked by SimilarWeb as 28th of all Israeli websites. Large-scale surveys, aiming to reveal media consumption patterns among visitors of the news agency website, consisted on 25–30 closed multiple choice questions and involved circa 2000 respondents. The study highlights how the choice of media for news consumption has changed over twelve years, reveals the heavy digital character of news usage and discusses the habitual information check in high choice news environment.
