As I’ve recently been in a debate where I was called hysterical and totally fixed in my opinions, I’ll relate the following: liberals more than twice as likely as conservatives to change their opinion based on social network interactions.
Damned liberals. Can’t even get the goosestep marching right.
SNS users who are liberals and moderates are more likely than conservatives to say their use of the sites has prompted them to change their views on a political issue: 24% of liberal SNS users say that; 18% of moderates say that; and 11% of conservatives say that.
