Where do you consume news?

http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/mediawire/189776/one-third-of-adults-under-30-get-news-on-social-networks-now/

The study has found 33 percent of those young adults got news from social networks the day before, while 34 percent watched TV news and just 13 percent read print or digital newspaper content.

It's notable that Twitter functions more as an 'interest network' rather than a 'social network.'  That is, people's news consumption is highly dependent on who they are connected.

So I am wondering if we could gauge the level of shared interest within a certain network by SNA?
