The Guardian slips to ninth in Nielsen Digital news rankings; News.com.au reclaims top spot
The Guardian saw its audience drop by just over 450,000 in August, sending its Nielsen Digital Ratings (Monthly) ranking plummeting from sixth place to ninth.
The Guardian reported a unique audience for August of 2.489m, down from its July audience of 2.940m.

The Guardian circulation will continue to fall unless they smarten up their local coverage. For example, their reportage of the recent Sen. Sam Dastyari donations’ scandal was very late to appear on the site. ‘Regular’ columnists often disappear for weeks on end.
