The always increasing mobile connectivity affects every aspect of our daily lives, including how and when we keep ourselves informed and consult news media. By studying a DPI (deep packet inspection) dataset, provided by one of the major Chilean telecommunication companies, we investigate how different cohorts of the population of Santiago De Chile consume news media content through their smartphones. We find that some socio-demographic attributes are highly associated to specific news media consumption patterns. In particular, education and age play a significant role in shaping the consumers behaviour even in the digital context, in agreement with a large body of literature on off-line media distribution channels.

新闻与城市：通过移动数据了解在线新闻消费模式

不断增长的移动连接性影响着我们日常生活的方方面面，包括我们如何以及何时保持了解情况并咨询新闻媒体。通过研究由智利主要电信公司之一提供的DPI（深度数据包检查）数据集，我们研究了智利圣地亚哥不同人群如何通过智能手机消费新闻媒体内容。我们发现某些社会人口统计属性与特定的新闻媒体消费模式高度相关。特别是，与离线媒体发行渠道上的大量文献相一致，即使在数字环境下，教育和年龄也对塑造消费者的行为起着重要作用。
