Thank You for Reading in 2025—As ATN Prepares to Mark Ten Years
New York -From News
By the Editor & News Team of American Television News (ATN)
New York, NY: As 2025 comes to a close, we want to begin with a simple and sincere note of thanks. Thank you to our readers—those who return regularly, those who read closely, and those who take the time to think through the complexities of a world that rarely offers easy answers. In a year defined less by resolution than by accumulation, your attention has mattered more than ever.
From the outset, American Television News was never designed to chase volume for its own sake. Our aim has always been to provide reporting that slows the moment just enough to make sense of it. The data from the past year suggests that many of you came to ATN for exactly that reason.
Who Read ATN in 2025
Audience data from 2025 shows a readership anchored in the United States, which accounted for about 31 percent of total visitors, but a much larger share of engagement—just over 40 percent of page views and more than a third of site sessions. That imbalance tells an important story: U.S.-based readers were not just visiting, they were staying.
Beyond the United States, ATN’s top markets reflected the nature of our coverage rather than the scale of mass media consumption.
Top 10 Markets by Share of Visitors
United States — 30.8%
• France — 4.6%
• Switzerland — 4.2%
• Egypt — 3.9%
• United Kingdom — 3.7%
• India — 3.2%
• Singapore — 2.9%
• Russia — 2.5%
• Canada — 2.1%
• Germany — 2.0%
Together, these markets accounted for more than half of ATN’s global audience—largely diplomatic hubs, policy centers, and globally connected societies where readers are looking for context rather than headlines alone.
