A higher percentage of older respondents reported visiting online news sources frequently. Europeans are more likely to spend more time per day consuming political information. This percentage is up very slightly from the last survey. Fewer respondents from Europe report using White House documents, which is not surprising. Almost the same percentage, however, feel that they are equally involved.
More European respondents report being equally involved than American respondents.
This is a slight increase from the last survey. Of those listed, respondents reported participating in online discussions, distributing information, and writing officials online. Younger respondents were more likely to participate in the various online activities except for writing officials. This was a new question for this survey and will probably be revised for the next survey. The results, however, do provide an interesting first pass at understanding the political makeup of the web community.
