Fox News is a national news outlet that delivers political news through television. It is known to lean conservatively with structured reporting from consistent news anchors. I turn on Fox because I can trust it to provide accurate and timely information with great detail.
2. Instagram
Instagram is a social media platform where news can be shares through posts, stories, reels or direct messages. I get news from Instagram through political accounts, news channel accounts, or public officials like President Trump. The app allows me to quickly read headlines and summaries of an event or trending story if I haven't yet had the chance to research the issue myself.
3. X
X, formerly Twitter, is a text-based platform used to share news or viral stories. X is an app used by journalists, public officials, politicians, influencers, and normal citizens like me.
4. TikTok
TikTok is a video-based platform where news is communicated by engaging short-form content. Although TikTok is a source to immediately discover news, I often have to fact check what I see because there is little to no fact-checking on the app, making it easy for misinformation to quickly spread.
5. Word of mouth
Word of mouth, or information shared directly through family, friends, and peers, is another news outlet I utilize. Conversations are often informal and/or biased, but it's one of the most common ways I am initially introduced to new stories.
