Andersson is seen less in the media than Åkesson

For the first time, the Sweden Democrats’ party leader Jimmie Åkesson is seen more in the news media than the Social Democrats’ Magdalena Andersson, although the difference is marginal, reports Ekot in Sveriges Radio.

Sweden’s prime minister is mostly seen.

– Ulf Kristersson should be number one because he is prime minister. Reasonably, the leader of the opposition and the representative of the largest party by far should be second, says Ulla von Lochow, a data analyst at Verian, which conducts the survey for Ekot.

Another thing that stands out in the survey is the focus on law and order in both news media and social media. The topic has never been so big before.

In the media measurement, approximately 1 million articles, posts and features in news, social media and podcasts have been measured since September 2023 until the end of the year.
