Toward the last quarter of 2020....a survey was done by Staista on Germans and social media.
Most Germans that you might encounter....will have a WhatsApp account. The number given is around 87-percent. I would offer the view that among kids 12-to-18....it's probably 99-percent who use it on a daily basis.
YouTube and Facebook? They come in around the 60-percent level of Germans.
Instagram? It's around the 40-percent range, and I would suggest it's primarily those under the age of thirty who use the media tool.
Finally, we come to Twitter.....being used by only 21-percent of Germans. How many are fake accounts? It's best not to ask that question.
I would offer the opinion that most Germans don't see it as a news media system, and probably half of the journalists will suggest it's more of a propaganda tool.....than a news tool.
