Zogby poll shows Web top source for news, TV close second and other trends
Though many in the news and journalism world continue to be incredulous over the prospect that viewer/users can distinguish truth from spin without the help of a news editor, it seems the public has a sense that journalism is vital to the future, though they want to get info from blogs, too.
More respondents (81%) said Web sites are important as a source of news, although television ranked nearly as high (78%), followed by radio (73%). Newspapers and magazines trailed – 69% said newspapers and 38% said magazines were important. While blogs were rated as important sources of news by 30% of the online respondents, they were not considered as good a news source as the backyard fence – 39% said their friends and neighbors are an important source of information.
