How and why do people still get print newspapers in an era dominated by mobile and social media communication? In this article, we answer this question about the permanence of traditional media in a digital media ecosystem by analyzing 488 semi-structured interviews conducted in Argentina, Finland, Israel, Japan, and the United States. We focus on three mechanisms of media reception: access, sociality, and ritualization. Our findings show that these mechanisms are decisively shaped by patterns of everyday life that are not captured by the scholarly foci on either content- or technology-influences on media use. Thus, we argue that a non-media centric approach improves descriptive fit and adds heuristic power by bringing a wider lens into crucial mechanisms of media reception in ways that expand the conceptual toolkit that scholars can utilize to analyze the role of media in everyday life.

在移动和社交媒体通信占主导的时代，人们如何以及为什么仍能得到印刷报纸？在本文中，我们通过分析在阿根廷，芬兰，以色列，日本和美国进行的488个半结构化访谈，回答了有关传统媒体在数字媒体生态系统中的持久性的问题。我们关注媒体接收的三种机制：访问，社交和仪式化。我们的研究结果表明，这些机制是由日常生活模式决定性地塑造的，学术模式对内容或技术对媒体使用的影响并没有抓住这些模式。因此，
