Survey: Few Americans Consume News Via Mobile Devices
Most Americans still get their news from traditional sources like television, according to the Pew Research Center’s Biennial News Consumption Survey. FierceMobileContent reports that about 37 percent of U.S. smartphone users say they get news from these devices, quoting figures from the survey.
That means that there’s still plenty of room left for growth in terms of consuming newspaper and magazine content on mobile devices. Here are some more statistics from the report:
– About one in 10 owners of iPods or MP3 players said they watch or listen to news-oriented podcasts using these devices;
– Only four percent of total mobile phone subscribers get their news from their cell phones.
