All of the newspaper sentences are fine.

If #1 is a survey question, you might want to be more specific in your alternatives:
Daily
5-6 times a week
2-4 times a week
weekly
less than weekly
never

"Sometimes," "Often" and "time to time" are very vague terms.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
