The Pew Research Center, whose jingle should go something like this, just released its latest findings on a world where half of US adults now get news from social media.
Regularly, 31% get news from Facebook, 25% from YouTube, 14% from Twitter, 13% from Instagram, and 10% from TikTok.
- Interestingly, Twitter has the highest proportion of users who use its platform for news, at 53%.
Since 2020, only TikTok has seen significant growth in this category.
- Among its 1B+ users, you’ve got official outlets like The Washington Post and an array of high-level creators like Philip DeFranco creating content.
One thing we’re curious about is the 4% of US adults who get their news from Nextdoor.
“BREAKING: Patricia and Mike had a block party and didn’t invite the Smiths!”
