5、conducted this study to better understand how U.S.adults get news and information about the 2024 presidential election.The survey of 9,680 U.S.adults was conducted from Sept.16 to 22,2024.Everyone who completed the survey is a member of the Centers American Trends Panel(ATP),a group of people recrui
6、ted through national,random sampling of residential addresses who have agreed to take surveys regularly.This kind of recruitment gives nearly all U.S.adults a chance of selection.Surveys were conducted either online or by telephone with a live interviewer.The survey is weighted to be representative
7、of the U.S.adult population by gender,race,ethnicity,partisan affiliation,education and other factors.Read more about the ATPs methodology.Here are the questions used for this report,the topline and the survey methodology.Pew Research Center is a subsidiary of The Pew Charitable Trusts,its primary f

12、d time distinguishing fact from fiction.A new Pew Research Center survey finds that about three-quarters of U.S.adults(73%)say they have seen inaccurate news coverage about the election at least somewhat often,including 37%who have seen this kind of information extremely or very often.About half of
13、Americans(52%)say they generally find it difficult to determine what is true and what is not when getting news about the election.And 28%separately say that its been difficult for them to find reliable information about the presidential election.Most say they see inaccurate news about the 2024 presi

19、 the same about election news in general.At the same time,people also say inaccurate information is coming from sources other than news outlets:58%of Americans say they have heard people they know share information about the election that they think is inaccurate at least somewhat often.There is lit

25、re slightly less likely than Republicans to be following election news closely in the two earlier surveys.Now,there is no difference between the two parties in their levels of attention.About six-in-ten Americans say they are worn out by so much coverage of the campaign,while nearly four-in-ten say
26、they like seeing a lot of coverage.These shares are similar to those measured in April,as well as in surveys conducted in 2020 and 2016.Jump to more about how much attention Americans are paying to election news.About 7 in 10 Americans are closely following news about 2024 presidential candidates%of

28、 CENTER 7 PEW RESEARCH CENTER www.pewresearch.org What kinds of news about the election are Americans seeing and what do they want to see?The survey asked Americans how much they have heard about several specific election-related topics that have been in the news in recent months.We found that most
29、people say they have heard or read a lot about Vice President Kamala Harris replacing President Joe Biden as the Democratic nominee(70%),the first assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump in July(66%),and the debate between Harris and Trump on Sept.10(64%).(The survey questions were fi
30、nalized before the second assassination attempt on Trump in September.)Smaller shares say they have heard a lot about the vice presidential candidates,the two parties national conventions,and third-party candidate Robert F.Kennedy Jr.endorsing Trump when he dropped out of the race.Still,large majori

34、about the candidates comments and actions on the campaign trail appears to be the most common type of coverage people are seeing.Four-in-ten U.S.adults say this is the type of election news they see most,outpacing information about the candidates stances on issues(17%),their moral characters(14%)or
35、which candidate is leading the race(13%).This does not align with what Americans are most interested in.For example,higher shares say they are extremely or very interested in news about candidates stances on the issues(75%)and their moral characters(60%)than say the same about candidates comments an
36、d actions during the campaign(49%).About half of Americans(49%)say they are extremely or very interested in the candidates career experiences,while just 3%say this is the topic they see the most news about.Jump to more information about what election news topics Americans are seeing.Americans most i

38、 used for election news Americans get news about politics and the election in a wide variety of ways.No single platform dominates:About a third of U.S.adults(35%)say TV is their most common source of election news,while roughly one-in-five each say the same about news websites or apps(21%)and social
39、 media(20%).Smaller shares primarily use other platforms,including search engines,podcasts,radio or print publications.Younger and older Americans are getting election news in very different ways.Nearly half of U.S.adults under 30(46%)say that social media are their most common source of election ne
40、ws,while others in this age category turn to different digital sources like news websites or apps(18%),search engines(12%)or podcasts(6%).One-in-ten say TV is their most common source of election news.But among U.S.adults ages 65 and older,a majority(63%)say TV is their top source.The same is true f

43、r search engines10 PEW RESEARCH CENTER www.pewresearch.org The survey also asked about several specific news outlets as sources of political and election news;there was little change on these questions since 2020.About two-thirds of Americans say national TV networks(ABC,CBS and NBC)are at least a m
44、inor source of political and election news for them,including three-in-ten who cite this as a major source.CNN and Fox News are each sources of election news for about half of Americans,with about two-in-ten naming each cable news network as a major source.Smaller shares cite other outlets as major
45、or minor sources of election news,including MSNBC,The New York Times,NPR,The Washington Post and conservative talk radio.While Democrats and Republicans largely give similar answers about what platforms they use most often for election news(e.g.,TV,social media,etc.),there are huge differences betwe
46、en the two parties on several of these specific outlets.Republicans are much more likely than Democrats to say Fox News and talk radio are at least minor sources of election news for them.But Democrats are far more likely than Republicans to get election news from all of the other news outlets menti
47、oned in the survey.For instance,about twice as many Democrats(72%)as Republicans(35%)say CNN is at least a minor source of political and election news for them.Jump to more on Americans sources of election news.Republicans,Democrats turn to different news outlets for election news%who use each of th

51、While younger Democrats are less likely than older Democrats to give the media positive marks on their 2024 election coverage,the opposite is true among Republicans.Younger Republicans are somewhat more likely than their older GOP counterparts to say the media are doing at least somewhat well.People
52、 across all political and age groups are more likely to say the news sources they turn to most often are doing well covering the election than to say the same about the news media in general.Jump to more on how Americans feel about election news.Over half of Republicans say the news media are doing

56、also increased closer to that election.A survey conducted in late August and early September 2020 found that 66%of Americans said they were very or fairly closely following news about candidates Joe Biden and Donald Trump,while in late September and early October 2016,74%of respondents were followin

80、 likely than Republicans and GOP leaners to be highly interested in the candidates moral characters(69%vs.52%).The survey also asked which of these six types of election news Americans see most often,and the top areas of interest for Americans do not always line up with what they are actually seeing

91、Republicans and Democrats are mostly similar in which platforms they use for political news.For example,about a third of Republicans and Republican leaners get political news from television(34%),identical to the share of Democrats and Democratic leaners who say the same.Older adults far more likely

166、wresearch.org Methodology Overview Data in this report comes from Wave 155 of the American Trends Panel(ATP),Pew Research Centers nationally representative panel of randomly selected U.S.adults.The survey was conducted from Sept.16 to 22,2024.A total of 9,680 panelists responded out of 10,627 who we
167、re sampled,for a survey-level response rate of 91%.The cumulative response rate accounting for nonresponse to the recruitment surveys and attrition is 3%.The break-off rate among panelists who logged on to the survey and completed at least one item is 1%.The margin of sampling error for the full sam
168、ple of 9,680 respondents is plus or minus 1.3 percentage points.SSRS conducted the survey for Pew Research Center via online(n=9,391)and live telephone(n=289)interviewing.Interviews were conducted in both English and Spanish.To learn more about the ATP,read“About the American Trends Panel.”Panel rec
169、ruitment Since 2018,the ATP has used address-based sampling(ABS)for recruitment.A study cover letter and a pre-incentive are mailed to a stratified,random sample of households selected from the U.S.Postal Services Computerized Delivery Sequence File.This Postal Service file has been estimated to cov
170、er 90%to 98%of the population.1 Within each sampled household,the adult with the next birthday is selected to participate.Other details of the ABS recruitment protocol have changed over time but are available upon request.2 Prior to 2018,the ATP was recruited using landline and cellphone random-digi
171、t-dial surveys administered in English and Spanish.A national sample of U.S.adults has been recruited to the ATP approximately once per year since 2014.In some years,the recruitment has included additional efforts(known as an“oversample”)to improve the accuracy of data for underrepresented groups.Fo
172、r example,Hispanic adults,Black adults and Asian adults were oversampled in 2019,2022 and 2023,respectively.1 AAPOR Task Force on Address-based Sampling.2016.“AAPOR Report:Address-based Sampling.”2 Email pewsurveyspewresearch.org.41 PEW RESEARCH CENTER www.pewresearch.org Sample design The overall t
173、arget population for this survey was noninstitutionalized persons ages 18 and older living in the United States.All active panel members were invited to participate in this wave.Questionnaire development and testing The questionnaire was developed by Pew Research Center in consultation with SSRS.The
174、 web program used for online respondents was rigorously tested on both PC and mobile devices by the SSRS project team and Pew Research Center researchers.The SSRS project team also populated test data that was analyzed in SPSS to ensure the logic and randomizations were working as intended before la
175、unching the survey.Incentives All respondents were offered a post-paid incentive for their participation.Respondents could choose to receive the post-paid incentive in the form of a check or gift code to A,T or W.Incentive amounts ranged from$5 to$15 depending on whether the respondent belongs to a
176、part of the population that is harder or easier to reach.Differential incentive amounts were designed to increase panel survey participation among groups that traditionally have low survey response propensities.Data collection protocol The data collection field period for this survey was Sept.16-22,
177、2024.Surveys were conducted via self-administered web survey or by live telephone interviewing.For panelists who take surveys online:Postcard notifications were mailed to a subset on Sept.16.3 Survey invitations were sent out in two separate launches:soft launch and full launch.Sixty panelists were
178、included in the soft launch,which began with an initial invitation sent on Sept.16.All remaining English-and Spanish-speaking sampled online panelists were included in the full launch and were sent an invitation on Sept.17.3 The ATP does not use routers or chains in any part of its online data colle
179、ction protocol,nor are they used to direct respondents to additional surveys.Postcard notifications for web panelists are sent to 1)panelists who were recruited within the last two years and 2)panelists recruited prior to the last two years who opt to continue receiving postcard notifications.42 PEW

181、e were sent an email invitation and up to two email reminders if they did not respond to the survey.ATP panelists who consented to SMS messages were sent an SMS invitation with a link to the survey and up to two SMS reminders.For panelists who take surveys over the phone with a live interviewer:Pren
182、otification postcards were mailed on Sept.11,and reminder postcards were mailed on Sept.16.Soft launch took place on Sept.16 and involved dialing until a total of four interviews had been completed.All remaining English-and Spanish-speaking sampled phone panelists numbers were dialed throughout the
183、remaining field period.Panelists who take surveys via phone can receive up to six calls from trained SSRS interviewers.Data quality checks To ensure high-quality data,Center researchers performed data quality checks to identify any respondents showing patterns of satisficing.This includes checking f
184、or whether respondents left questions blank at very high rates or always selected the first or last answer presented.As a result of this checking,eight ATP respondents were removed from the survey dataset prior to weighting and analysis.Weighting The ATP data is weighted in a process that accounts f
185、or multiple stages of sampling and nonresponse that occur at different points in the panel survey process.First,each panelist begins with a base weight that reflects their probability of recruitment into the panel.These weights are then calibrated to align with the population benchmarks in the accom
186、panying table to correct for nonresponse to recruitment surveys and panel attrition.If only a subsample of panelists was invited to participate in the wave,this weight is adjusted to account for any differential probabilities of selection.43 PEW RESEARCH CENTER www.pewresearch.org Among the panelist
187、s who completed the survey,this weight is then calibrated again to align with the population benchmarks identified in the accompanying table and trimmed at the 1st and 99th percentiles to reduce the loss in precision stemming from variance in the weights.Sampling errors and tests of statistical sign
