Internet é mais popular que jornal de papel

Pesquisa do instituto americano Pew Internet Research divulgada nesta segunda, 1, mostra que a internet ultrapassou o jornal impresso e o rádio como plataforma de informação. A tevê ainda aparece em primeiro lugar no ranking. Veja o ranking:  

• 78% of Americans say they get news from a local TV station
• 73% say they get news from a national network such as CBS or cable TV station such as CNN or FoxNews
• 61% say they get some kind of news online
• 54% say they listen to a radio news program at home or in the car
• 50% say they read news in a local newspaper
• 17% say they read news in a national newspaper such as the New York Times or USA Today.

Outro destaque importantíssimo é que a relação das pessoas com a notícia tende a se tornar cada vez mais portátil, participativa e personalizada:

• Portable : 33% of cell phone owners now access news on their cell phones.
• Personalized : 28% of internet users have customized their home page to include news from sources and on topics that particularly interest them.
• Participatory : 37% of internet users have contributed to the creation of news, commented about it, or disseminated it via postings on social media sites like Facebook or Twitter.
