It’s no secret that the news industry is changing fast. In 2025, only around 7% of U.S. adults report getting most of their news from print outlets like newspapers and magazines, according to the Pew Research Center. Radio isn’t doing much better, reaching just 11% of the population. Meanwhile, 86% of those surveyed say they get at least some of their news via smartphone, which could mean anything from social media to news apps and streaming platforms.
