Recent data published by Pew Research Center shows that in 2025, a large majority (86 percent) of U.S. adults said they at least sometimes get news from a smartphone, computer or tablet, including 56 percent who said they do so often. This made digital devices the most often used source of news for American adults, ahead of television (used "often" by 32 percent of respondents) and radio (11 percent), reflecting an evolving news environment.

Yet, data from a survey conducted by Pew Research Center in December 2025 shows that most U.S. adults turn to their preferred news organization when looking for more information about a breaking news story. This was the most common answer, cited by 36 percent of respondents, ahead of a search engine, favored by 28 percent, and social media (19 percent). Interestingly, while AI adoption has become mainstream in some counries, only one percent on American adults said they turned to AI chatbots for information about breaking news stories. According to a recent Statista study, Americans are as of yet still on the fence about artificial intelligence and its uses.

The FIFA men's soccer World Cup 2026 is drawing nearer, kicking off on June 11 in Mexico City and hosting games in 11 U.S., three Mexican and two Canadian cities. While Americans are not very enthusiastic about attending the event – not even when compared to overseas visitors – those who know the competition still have relatively strong opinions about its impact and ethical practices.

A majority of respondents to a Statista survey say it is important to them that an event like the World Cup promotes sustainability and social responsibility. A high 44 percent additionally say they do not trust FIFA to manage transparency and fairness accordingly.

Among respondents knowing the World Cup, 39 percent say that World Cup sponsors are in their good books, a fairly good result for a nation which is not known for being made up of too many soccer enthusiasts. Around a third of Americans say they believe betting on a major event like the World Cup makes gambling more acceptable. Around the same share say that political issues are shaping how they see the event.

How do Americans work out? While hitting the gym is something that around a third of those who practice sports do at least occasionally, the Great Outdoors is also a major pull for people looking for some (light) physical exercise. According to a survey by Statista Consumer Insights, hiking is the most popular form of this type of exercise in America, with 27 percent of those who do sports engaging in it at least from time to time. Other popular outdoorsy pursuits are hunting and fishing (21 percent of sporty Americans do this) and cycling (also 21 percent). Running is slightly less popular at just 19 percent of respondents naming it as an exercise of choice.

At 33 percent, basketball is the most popular type of exercise on the list. The next most popular team sports are (flag) football (25 percent) and baseball/softball (19 percent). Another 22 percent of the survey's respondents said they liked to get a workout in by boogieing down on the dancefloor (or maybe just in their living room). Responses picked less frequently include soccer (17 percent), golf (15 percent) yoga or pilates (15 percent), tennis (12 percent) and badminton (12 percent).

However, 57 percent of Americans do not work out at all according to the survey.

Glücksspiele sind in Deutschland weit verbreitet. Besonders beliebt sind 6aus49, Eurojackpot und Rubbellose. Das geht aus dem kürzlich veröffentlichten Glücksspiel-Survey 2025 hervor. 7,5 Prozent der Befragten 12.340 Befragten nehmen an riskanten Spielformen wie Kasinospielen und Sportwetten teil. Ein riskantes Spielverhalten liegt bei 5,5 Prozent der Studienteilnehmer:innen vor. Das heißt, dass drei von neun DSM-5-Kriterien, einem internationalen Klassifikationssystem, vorliegen. Dazu zählen unter anderem "Glücksspielen als Flucht vor Problemen", "wichtige Beziehungen oder der Arbeitsplatz wurden wegen des Spielens gefährdet oder verloren" oder "Vertuschen der Glücksspielproblematik gegenüber nahen Bezugspersonen durch Lügen". Von einer Glückspielstörung ist dann die Rede, wenn vier oder mehr dieser Kriterien auf Spieler:innen zutreffen. Das ist bei zwei von 100 Menschen in Deutschland der Fall.

A U.S. jury has found Meta and YouTube liable in a landmark social media addiction trial, marking a major legal setback for the tech giants. According to the BBC, jurors concluded that the platforms were deliberately designed to be addictive and contributed to harm experienced by a young user. The ruling could open the door to further lawsuits and increased regulatory scrutiny of social media companies.

This debate over the impact of social platforms is closely tied to the extent to which young people use them. A recent survey by the Pew Research Center shows that social media is deeply embedded in teenagers’ daily lives, with a vast majority of U.S. teens reporting daily use of the internet (97 percent) and platforms such as YouTube (76 percent), TikTok (61 percent) and Instagram (55 percent). As our infographic shows, a notable share even reports near-constant use: 40 percent for the internet, 21 percent for TikTok and 17 percent for YouTube, with a further one-third to one-half saying they use these platforms several times a day.

These patterns point to clear differences in engagement across platforms, with video-based apps standing out for their particularly intensive use. TikTok and YouTube, both centered on short-form and highly personalized video content, are among the platforms most likely to be used almost constantly, reinforcing concerns about their potentially addictive design. More broadly, the rise of algorithm-driven feeds and endless scrolling has reshaped how teens consume content, increasing both the frequency and duration of their online activity.

Global oil markets have been roiled in recent weeks following the escalation of the Middle East war involving Iran, raising concerns about supply disruptions in one of the world's most critical energy regions. According to Reuters, Brent crude prices rose above $110 per barrel last Friday, their highest level since mid-2022, as fears grew over prolonged disruptions to shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a key chokepoint for global oil flows. The International Energy Agency has also warned that the crisis could lead to one of the largest oil supply disruptions in recent history, adding further volatility to energy markets and putting upward pressure on fuel prices worldwide.
