Proportion of news subscribers who are paying less than the full monthly price for their online news subscription

Figures reflect what people say they pay for their online news subscription compared to the full asking price for that subscription. E.g., If a person says they are paying £10/pm for their subscription, but the full advertised price is actually £15/pm, they are considered as paying less than the full price.
