It’s something that you use almost every day, but how much do you really know about social media? We’re going in-depth, behind the scenes, on a mission to bring you facts. Maybe you know some of them already, but you definitely don’t know all of them, so take a look at the complete graphic once you’re done here.

Younger people are more likely to be making the change to news on social media. 68% of millennials reported that they get most of their news from Facebook, and 24% of high school students reported that Instagram is the place to be for news these days.
