The Community Media Research laboratory analyses the behaviour of people from Veneto, Trentino and Friuli: more sensitive to the Internet are young people 'and those who are disillusioned and undecided'<\/p>\n
This is where we create political opinions<\/p>\n
Marini: \"In the North-East, there is a focus on information, especially in traditional media rather than on the web and social media\" And what newspapers and friends-relatives have an influence on voting: \"However, mistrust weighs on everything, due to the quagmires created by the flood of sources and fake news circles\"
\nThese are the hours of electoral silence and voting, those in which the field is left free to the web and social networks, to which no strict rules apply. But where do the voters called to the polls today (3.7 million in Veneto) inform themselves about politics and where do they form their opinions? In the Northeast, \"they pay attention to the events of national politics, more than one would think\" and use all channels, but be careful: \"Opinion is formed mainly through newspapers,\" summarises Daniele Marini in presenting the latest research he directed for Community media research in collaboration with Intesa Sanpaolo Cassa Risparmio Veneto. \"More than a third (37.5%) are constantly informed about what is happening in the political area,\" although Trentino and Friuli are more diligent than the Veneto region. And only around 7 per cent say they keep themselves updated little or not at all.<\/p>\n
