Print and broadcast top Internet for recession news

People seeking information about the recession were more likely to rely on television, radio, and print than the Internet, according to a new report by the Pew Internet & American Life Project. 84% of the people polled said they used television or radio to get news about the economy, 64% read newspapers, magazines, and books, and 48% used the Internet. Broadband users used the Internet more, but were still more likely to use broadcast and just as likely to use print to get their economic news. Pew's report is based on a telephone survey of 2,253 adults from March 26 to April 19, 2009.
