Survey: 40% Of Republicans Watch Fox News Regularly
Consumers are quickly making recent technology part of their news habits and are consequently spending more time following what's going on in the world, a survey released Sunday said.
People are spending an average of 57 minutes per day getting the news from television, radio and newspapers, the same as they did a decade ago, according to the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press.

Roughly 33 percent of people surveyed said they went online for news the previous day, a number that goes up to 44 percent when cell phones, e-mail, social networks and podcasts are added, Pew said in the media consumption survey, which it takes every two years.

Forty percent of Republicans say they watch Fox News Channel regularly, compared to 18 percent a decade ago

3. That suggests a very insulated, homogenous electorate.

It can't be good for them in the long run.
