Pew Report Says Internet Is Increasingly Popular For Politics
A Pew report, published the other day, says more people are relying on the internet to get their news - particularly political news.
Here’s an interesting quote:
Among those under 36 years old, 35% said the Internet was their main source of political news during the 2006 campaign while only 18% primarily relied on newspapers.
The Pew report identifies a “new online political elite” who use the Internet for political activism. During the 2006 campaign, 23% of those using the Internet to access political news (11% of Internet users overall) created and shared political content through blog, video, or audio posts, or by forwarding such commentary to others.
My question of the day is - do you or are you planning to read political feeds during the upcoming election season? If so, who do you like? Let’s talk about it.
