Science, New Media, and the Public. Brossard, D. and Scheufele, D. A. 339(6115):40–41.

Nine in 10 internet users in the United States turn to search engines to find information (1), and 60\,% of the U.S. public seeking information about specific scientific issues lists the Internet as their primary source of information (2). This has created a new urgency for scientists to pay attention to these trends and to the emerging scholarly literature about communicating science in this brave new ” online” world.
