Role of social media in political news

Many people in Asian and African countries are using mobile phones to get their online news and in those regions, social media is even more important as a source of news.

In Britain and in the US the use of smartphones to access the news has for the first time overtaken computers and laptops. However, getting news from social media is least common in France and Germany, where majorities say they do not get any news on social media.
