Who are Passive Information Consumers (PIC)? Pple who spend a lot of time online, but don't read news. @pewresearch estimates they are about 20% of US adults. @knightfdn 100 Million project shows that of people under 35 who didn't vote in 2016, 54% were PIC. 3/17
Passive Information Consumers (PIC) are generally young. Most don't have strong political opinions and are more likely than other to answer "not sure" to questions about current events, their policy opinions and even their political beliefs. 4/17
