If you're reading this on your phone or computer, then you probably already suspected as much:

"The overwhelming majority of Americans (92%) use multiple platforms to get news on a typical day, including national TV, local TV, the Internet, local newspapers, radio, and national newspapers," the Pew Internet & American Life Projects reports.

Nearly half (46%) "say they get news from four to six media platforms on a typical day. Just 7% get their news from a single media platform on a typical day."

Overall, Pew concludes, "the process Americans use to get news is based on foraging and opportunism. They seem to access news when the spirit moves them or they have a chance to check up on headlines."

And there's this:

 

"Only local and national TV news, the latter if you combine cable and network, are more popular platforms than the Internet for news. And most Americans use a combination of both online and offline sources. On a typical day:

— "78% of Americans say they get news from a local TV station.

— "73% say they get news from a national network such as CBS or cable TV station such as CNN or Fox News.

— "61% say they get some kind of news online.

— "54% say they listen to a radio news program at home or in the car.

— "50% say they read news in a local newspaper.

— "17% say they read news in a national newspaper such as The New York Times or USA TODAY.

Pew's findings are based on surveys done from Dec. 28 to Jan. 19 of 2,259 adults. The margin of error on each figure is +/- 2.3 percentage points. The AP has a story about the report here.
