Adults in the U.S. believe social media platforms have too much power and influence when it comes to politics, and nearly one-half feel like more government regulation over the sector is necessary, according to a new survey from Pew Research Center.
The think tank polled 4,708 U.S. adults between June 16 and 22, finding that 72% of respondents believe social media companies wield too much influence over politics, while 21% felt that they had the right amount and 6% thought they didn’t have enough.
