The way Americans get their news is changing.

Despite the fact that TV still dominates as a news source for most of people, it’s losing its position every year. Younger adults don’t watch as much TV as older generations and get their news from new media sources online. Between 2011 and 2016, traditional TV viewing by younger adults has seen a dramatic drop.
