This article is about how the recent issues containing Oscar pistorius and Jennifer Lawrence have boosted online traffic since their issues in the media recently.  Mail Online had their biggest rise and the highest numbers of users ever since the Icloud hacking and the decision of the Pistorius trial. Most newspapers articles had a massive rise ever since these issues as recent studies showed. This shows how big these situations were and how newspapers are still the main source of news, not social networks.  


  • 184 million unique users for the mail online website with 2.7 per cent rise. which a third higher than 2013
  • Monthly rise by 700 thousand
I believe this shows how the big institution are still the major players and people still use this as their main source of news which claims twitter is know the main source, Twitter has never had a rise like this. Also this shows that Newspapers still have a future with all the developments in the digital media as this shows how big the online newspapers industry is.
