Leading social networks used for news in the U.S. 2019-2020

Published by Amy Watson, Jun 23, 2020
In 2020, 35 percent of respondents to a survey said that they had used Facebook for news in the last week. Whilst this was down by four percentage points from the previous year, Facebook remains the leading social media network for news consumption among U.S. consumers. In second place was YouTube, which saw an increase in audience between 2019 and 2020, suggesting a growing interest in consuming news via online video.
