Facebook and Twitter might not be as important for news sharing as we once thought — at least for the time being. A new survey of 3,000 people by the Pew Research Center found that just 9 percent get their news “very often” from people they follow on Facebook and Twitter. 36 percent of people still get news by going directly to news websites themselves, while 32 percent use search engines to find news and 29 percent use news aggregating websites to hunt down articles to read.
