This study examined the use of international media by Nigerian journalists and the popularity of some of the leading international radio broadcasts to Nigeria. The data for the study was collected through a survey of Nigerian journalists conducted in Nigeria in December 1994 and January 1995. The study found that 67 per cent of the respondents relied on foreign media for accurate and objective news about Nigeria. The Voice of America, the study found, is more popular than BBC among the respondents, a finding which is at variance with earlier reports about the popularity of BBC among the people of the former British colony
