According to Pew Internet & American Life, Asian-Americans have tried most Internet activities at the same rate as other racial groups. But in many instances, they are enthusiastic consumers of information. Asian-American users are proportionally much more likely than others to get information about financial matters, travel, and political information. Also, more likely to use the Internet as a resource at school or at work. This report says their most popular form of information gathering is simply accessing the day’s news– about three-fifths of Internet users of different races have ever gotten the news online. However, Asian-American users are much more likely to have made getting the news online a part of their daily lives. Just over a third (34%) of users get the news online on a typical day.
