Print News Might Be Dying, But Not Necessarily TV News
TV news anchors can breathe a sigh of relief everywhere: a recent survey found that local and national TV news programs are more popular than online news.
According to the Pew Research Center and American Life Project’s survey, almost everybody (92%) gets their news from multiple platforms.
