From the former BMJ Editor-in-Chief:
"I meet with young doctors all over the world, and I usually ask them what they read. I ask for a show of hands and find fairly consistently that half read the NEJM, the Lancet, a local journal, and a specialist journal, a third the BMJ, and most a local newspaper.
About half are reading a novel, and about a third have read a poem in the past week.
Almost all are on Facebook but very few on Twitter."
A lot of them also use Wikipedia as textbook replacement but they will not admit it unless asked directly.
