The statistic shows data on the time spent with mobile news in the United States in the first quarter of 2014, by device. During a survey, 60 percent of smartphone owners and 54 percent of large tablet owners stated they spent more than 20 minutes a day consuming news on their mobile device.
How much time do you spend consuming news content found on social media on your smartphone/tablet in a typical day?
Tablet figures come from part 6 of the same report, page 11. Large tablets are defined as "internet-enabled tablets with mobile operating systems and 8-inch or larger full-color, multi-touch displays." The source does not provide detailed information regarding the questions and possible answers of the survey. The wording chosen here might therefore differ slightly from the wording of the survey.
