Among interviewees of the 35-44 age group, the share stood at 62 percent.

The source adds the following information: "... online samples will tend to under-represent the news consumption habits of people who are older and less affluent, meaning online use is typically over-represented and traditional offline use under-represented. In this sense, it is better to think of results as representative of the online population."
