Employees who use the internet are increasingly becoming news addicts, a survey has found.
In its annual survey, web monitor company Websense found that more than 20% of employees felt that news was the most addictive content on the web.

Websense chief technology officer Harold Kester said: "Initially we saw most abuse in pornography and gambling sites, now we are seeing more time spent on news sites."
However they warned that un-monitored surfing is costing business millions. A company where 1000 employees surf the web for just one hour a day will lose £30m each year in lost productivity, it said.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
