“An overwhelming majority of reporters and editors now depend on social media sources when researching their stories,” according to a survey conducted by Cision and Don Bates of The George Washington University’s Master’s Degree Program in Strategic Public Relations.
Though this speaks of the power social networks now hold, the survey found that 84 % of those who use these sources for news found them unreliable.
Nevertheless..."89% said they turn to blogs for story research, 65% to social media sites such as Facebook and LinkedIn, and 52% to microblogging services such as Twitter.”
