Do you get your news from Facebook and other social media?
Just 9% of those who were surveyed earlier this year in a Pew Research Center study said they frequently follow news recommendations from either Facebook or Twitter when using computers, smartphones or tablets.
“Social media is secondary,” said Amy Mitchell, deputy director of the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism. “Clearly it’s grown, clearly it’s the new player and part of the landscape, but it’s not the overwhelming driver.”
Because when you think ‘party,’ you immediately think ‘PBS NewsHour.’
But really, come hang out with us tonight as we watch the State of the Union and GOP response and provide context and analysis in our watch party.
Then, go translate it if you have the language chops.
