These reach and frequency numbers are very distorted, by click throughs from the likes of tweets for say a Herald Sun article that are then behind a paywall and and people bail out, not reading the article. These are not genuine click-throughs imo and exaggerate the level of engagement – they may be impressions just, but not representative of true consumer behaviour
